Solomon Sang

He had silver and gold Riches untold And the beast of the field lay at his feet Everybody bowed He wondered why or how It all came to be No one understood his sorrow No one saw his pain He way praying for grace Ravens pray for rain And when he stood before the altar Solomon sang Solomon sang Wisdom was his calling Pride sent him falling Love was blissful misery When the days grew dim Life begin again In the questions of the Queen Did she understand his sorrow Did she see his pain Vanity and precious stones Weigh you down the same But when he laid down with Mekeda Solomon sang Solomon sang Love for woman Love for God Not so simple Not too hard For the spirit Pleasure is sweet And surrender set him free Free Set him free When our time is ended How will we have spent it Did we see the beauty in each day Was it God's devotion Behind each emotion Or did it all just slip away Can you understand his sorrow Can you see his pain Nothing lives forever But the love that bears your name And when he stood up in the temple Solomon sang Solomon sang Solomon sang Solomon sang
