Lyrics
Evening Twinkling Bareback Skies by Vic Zarley
Oh, Jesus, You're behind my eyes
You move and make me realize
That I can marvel at the stars that rise
In evening twinkling bareback skies
The moon, its shadows cast upon me
Knights in armor, dragons 'round me
But soon You, Jesus, fill my days
As more and more to You I praise
And suddenly
Those visions are gone
Things are right-nothing is wrong
I'm not a part of a distant world
But in You, my thoughts unfurled
And I belong to the here and now world
Yes, I belong to the here and now world
But people cast a feeling 'round me
Quite a few feel the earth is sadly
Moving in an era badly-and nothing will remain
These people's minds are a long time back
They wear thick lenses coated black
That never let Your light rays back
Into their brains where light has lacked
For years on end-it is a fact
But I hear these people moving forward
Upward, outward, onward toward
Majestic mountains reflecting the sun
Toward majestic mountains that, through You, they are one
They're climbing the mountains and perching aloft
And taking their thick stained glasses off
And looking at the sky with eager young eyes
And You, Lord, are making them realize
Just how You're moving behind their eyes
Helping them marvel at the stars that rise
In evening twinkling bareback skies
In evening twinkling bareback skies
