BLACKBIRD

Snippet

God loved the birds and invented trees. Man loved the birds and invented cages.  Jacques Deval  Afin de vivre bel et bien.

Scripture

These are the birds you are to regard as unclean and not eat because they are unclean  any kind of raven Leviticus 11:13,15 NIV
Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah: “Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.”
 So he did what the LORD had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there.  The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.  I Kings 17:2-6  NIV

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to be free
Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly, into the light of the dark blue night
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.
