Make Right The Time - part i

from Make Right The Time by Danny Schmidt

lyrics

Hang tight the nightingale
Sings though her body’s frail
Songs where her feathers fail
To make right the time

The Earth’s on a string of beads
Just one prayer on the rosary
A single voice, a single: “Please,
Make right the time”

Every moment has a face
Eyes of purpose, lips of place
To know and speak of only grace
And to make right the time
