Wayland The Rabbit
Oh my Wayland, there's deer in the forests
And rivers are flowing just for you
Oh my father, look down through the mountains and valleys
The grain's in the silo, all for you
One fine morning, as dad was walking
Just to see what he could see
He spied, a little white rabbit
He was frozen as solid as he could be
And dad cried, as he knelt down beside him
He asked God, "How could you be so cruel?"
And his heart broke, for the little white rabbit
"But you see that the owl, would never have been so gentle
And God is so kind"
I love Wayland 'cause he's strong
And I love him 'cause he's weak
And the rabbit is running within him
Oh my Wayland, the children are waiting
And berries are ripe down below the hill
Oh, my father, the shadows of nighttime can't touch you
Immortal go quickly, be thankful the water is cool, drink your fill
Today as I walked 'long beside him
I said, "Dad why do you look so sad?"
He turned as he stood by the doorway
He said, "Things are not like they used to be"
I smiled, as if I could teach him
I said "Dad, it's mercy in disguise"
"Once you told of a little white rabbit
And you said that the owl would never have been so gentle
And God is so kind"
And I love you 'cause you're strong
And I love you 'cause you're weak
And the rabbit is running within me
