LYRICS Jon the Baptist you’ve got a righteous kind of way, go ‘head and tell all the people about the approaching golden age I would not stop you from what you’re doing Jon, Jon the savior for my feeble aching heart, I heard your voice crying out from the alps like a beacon from the dark — I would not stop you from what you’re doing (I could never clothe you in chains) You, one of few who could save my soul from going to flames… Jon the Baptist, I cannot believe what my eyes do see Jon the Baptist, Offering his sacred heart to me, But for a moment, still… The Baptist Hands touching my skin they do free my soul I’m telling you the Baptist Let’s me leave my sins all at the door But for a moment, still…. I would like to see you once more Standing on that eastern shore but, I know that you have so much left to do Jon the Baptist Jon, Jon the revelation that there’s nobody else, but you’ve got a few more souls so save from burning in hell Jon the Baptist Jon, the savior for my feeble aching heart, the Baptist. #Pomplamoose #Jacaranda #JonTheBaptist
