Teachers

Who taught the birds to fly, who taught them to sing
Who taught the snake to glide and bite everything
Who taught the whale to live down in the deep
Who taught the horse to run, the spider to creep

Who sought me out before my life began
Who brought me into Canaan's land
Who taught me to wander through the earth alone
Surviving on brie and sauvignon

Who taught the crocodile to crawl through the mud
Who taught the flea to fill his guts up with blood
Who taught the fawn to cleave so near to the doe
Who taught the lion to roar, the rooster to crow

Who sought me out before my life began
Who brought me to the promised land
Who taught me to wander through the earth alone
Surviving on brie and sauvignon

Who taught the lonesome owl to glide through the night
Who taught the moth to press it's way to the light
Who taught the eagle's eyes to glimmer and glint
Who taught the bee to work, the cheetah to sprint

Who sought me out before my life began
Who brought me into Canaan's land
Who taught me to wander through the earth alone
Surviving on brie and sauvignon

I hear them living all around me now
Who showed them to, who taught them how
Who laid out the architecture of my bones
Who made it such a stately home

Who taught me to wander through the earth alone
Surviving on brie and sauvignon
Who sought me out before my life began
Who brought me to the promised land
