Lyrics

Sunshine breaks through the morning
Moonlight whitens the night
Have you not looked around you?
Mankind what did you see?

The gardens, the rainbows
The colors of the Painter plain to see
You've got it, you've lost it
In this world we're but travelling just for awhile
'Cause it isn't lasting
And not very permanent
There must be something other than this
Take it as Evidence

Blue skies reaching the heavens
Meadows stretch out of sight
Have you not looked around you?
Woman what did you see?

The children, the riches
But they're just here a short time, come and gone
There's living, there's dying
Now ask yourself the question
What did you do in your lifelong journey?
When you went to sleep at night
Did you not ever wonder at all?
It could be Evidence!

Have they not seen the Evidence?
What will you do oh Your Honor?
Yes we have seen the Evidence
And we do swear oh Your Honor
Have they not seen the Evidence?
What will you do oh Your Honor?

The children, the riches
But they're just here a short time, come and gone
There's living, there's dying
Now ask yourself the question
What did you do in your lifelong journey?
When you went to sleep at night
Did you not ever wonder at all?
It could be Evidence!
