Lowland Hum
Morning Meal
I’m as balanced as a deer
Walking across a frozen pond
Lost when I don’t get my way
I wear red eyes on a carnival ride

Won’t you come and feed us in the morning
Won’t you come and feed us with the morning light

I’m as silver as the moon
Taking credit for a borrowed tune
I try hard but I’m still cruel
I’m sad but not out of concern for you

Won’t you come and feed us in the morning
Won’t you come and feed us with the morning light

I’m discerning as a dog
Easy to please
Desires gone wrong
Down on my knees
Sickness, relief

Won’t you come and feed us in the morning
Won’t you come and feed us with the morning light

Make me steady like a melody
Make me humble like a wheat field
Make me soft as an open window
Help me love what is unending
