Present, Past, and Future

Denver says it's summer But the aspens say it's fall In the mountains where the tallest peaks Still have yet to thaw The signals of the seasons And the passage of time Ever since I left my home Have fallen out of line Oh, I've been seeing signs The present, past, and future intertwined Have you seen the Holy One Who ever was and is and is to come? Years burn dim, the memories all Vanish from my sight I came to revive the past And find the bygone nights But what unfolds before you Are the former things transformed You see a child's future Before the child is born Oh, I've been seeing signs The present, past, and future intertwined Have you seen the Holy One Who ever was and is and is to come? Paintings in my cousin's house My grandfather's farm Reiterations of the past On a Colorado lawn Love's unceasing memories Continue marching forward Directed by the hand Of the eternal sovereign Lord And so that long march forward Leads us further back Words about bruised heads and heels Linger on and last Oh, I've been seeing signs The present, past, and future intertwined Have you seen the Holy One Who ever was and is and is to come?
