Lyrics Sufjan Stevens

Sufjan Stevens

Seven Swans

We didn't sleep too late

There was a fire in the yard

All of the tress were in light

They had no faces to show

I saw a sign in the sky

Seven swans, seven swans, seven swans

I heard a voice in my mind

I will try, I will try, I will try

I will try, I will try, I will try

We saw the dragon move down

My father burned into coal

My mother saw it from far

She took her purse to the bed

I saw a sign in the sky

Seven horns, seven horns, seven horns

I heard a voice in my mind

I am Lord, I am Lord, I am Lord

He said, I am Lord, I am Lord, I am Lord

He said, I am Lord, I am Lord, I am Lord

He will take you

If you run, He will chase you

He will take you

If you run, He will chase you

'Cause He is the Lord

'Cause He is the Lord

Seven swans, seven swans, seven swans

Seven swans, seven swans, seven swans
