Lyrics
I must always be aware
Of crooked ways
Struggling to be faithful
To love
It's not an easy way to live
I must always be
Gentle as a dove
And wise as a serpent inside
In this world
But always watching out
Wise as a serpent inside
I long to live my life
Just like a child
With my whole heart
Always trusting
It's not an easy way to live
I must always be
Gentle as a dove
And wise as a serpent inside
In this world
But always watching out
Gentle as a dove
And wise as a serpent inside
In this world
But always watching out
Wise as a serpent inside
Oh I long for us all to live
In paradise
But until that day
We must be faithful to love
To guide the lost
And help all those in need
Until we all live peaceful
And free
We all must be
Gentle as a dove
And wise as a serpent inside
In this world
But always watching out
Gentle as a dove
And wise as a serpent inside
In this world
But always watching out
Wise as a serpent inside
We must always be aware
Of crooked ways
Struggling to be faithful
To love
