Cass McCombs

The Living Word

The Word came first In the Beginning, came the Word Words can hurt Let me speak the Living Word

Rolling thumbs; enough for the wise Each desperate blockhead dares to write A voice in the ditch received in cold English Go ahead, make a wish

The Word came first In the Beginning, came the Word Words can hurt Let me speak the Living Word

Lao Tzu replied Confucius as a myriad being: "How could this be unknowing?" Albert's philosopher meant NOW YOU SEND

The Word came first In the Beginning, came the Word Words can hurt Let me speak the Living Word

LRH met Ho Chi Minh in Paris, 1939 Not that it matters the names, the place, or time Alive in the root The black swan of the brood Traveling faster and traveling mute

The Word came first In the Beginning, came the Word Words can hurt Let me speak the Living Word

Living order; enough for the lies Only the Immortal demand their rights Returning to pen Returning to when The page was white and the Word guided men

The Word came first In the Beginning, came the Word Words can hurt Let me speak the Living Word
