The trumpet child will blow his horn Will blast the sky till its reborn With Gabriels power and Satchmos* grace He will surprise the human race The trumpet he will use to blow Is being fashioned out of fire The mouthpiece is a glowing coal The bell a burst of wild desire The trumpet child will riff on love Thelonious notes from up above Hell improvise a kingdom come Accompanied by a different drum
The trumpet child will banquet here Until the lost are truly found A thousand days, a thousand years Nobody knows for sure how long The rich forget about their gold The meek and mild are strangely bold A lion lies beside a lamb And licks a murderers outstretched hand The trumpet child will lift a glass His bride now leaning in at last His final aim to fill with joy The earth that man all but destroyed".
I bought one Feist cd; she's a litle girl compared to the mature, majestic grace of Karin

Awesome song. Awesome message. Beautifully delivered. I love that this band incorporates a cello, too.
