Where Is the Miriam, Where Is the Moses?

Lyrics as Poetry

Where is the Miriam,
where is the Moses?
Where are the ones who will call, who will lead?
Daughters and sons of the Christ evolution,
who will bring Gospel command
up to speed?
Dream as we may,
scheme as we may,
but raise up new prophets,
the voice for our day!Where is the Mary
and where is the Jesus,
living the vision that courage makes real?
Daughters and sons of the Christ revolution,
who will speak peace
and wrap love round the steel?
Dream all we can,
scheme all we can,
but raise up the spirited
woman and man!Where is the mindset
to act as a servant,
yet to be leader and pleader for good,
walking ahead to where others will follow,
risking our life to be misunderstood?
Dream what we will,
scheme what we will,
we’re led by the Spirit
no crosses can kill!
