Prince - Rainbow Children Lyrics

With the accurate understanding of God and His law
They went about the work of building
A new nation
The rainbow children

Wise one who understood the law
That was handed down from God long ago
Reflected the true meaning to his woman every day
And she surrendered her discerning of it into his care and keeping

For she trusted he would lead in the right way
Her children in subjection to her, she in subjection to the wise one
The wise one in subjection to the Almighty God
Forever is in subjection to God

Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise
Flyin' upon the wings of the new translation
See them fly, fly, covenant will be kept this time
Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise

Rainbow children it's time to rise
Rainbow children it's time to rise

As prophesied, the wise one and his woman
Were tempted by the resistor
He knowing full well the wise one's love for God
Assimilated the woman first and only

Quite naturally chaos ensued
And shield far verbally
Were banished
From the rainbow forever

Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise
Flyin' upon the wings of the new translation
See them fly, fly, covenant will be kept this time
Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise

Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise
Flyin' upon the wings of the new translation
See them fly, fly, the covenant will be kept this time
Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise

Who is she? Oh father
The everlasting one
The one who came from nothing
And nothin' is where everything comes

The one who commands your armor
With the simple phrase 'I am'
Every time that she obeys
She gives birth to the Son of Man, who is this?

Production of a need to need to
Understand others before denials
Production of a need to need to
Understand others before denials

Do you dream it like
A person the people found so
Never changing one piece of it
To feel like one with the flow

The scales within become unbalanced
And thus began the fall
The sin of one within
the count of sin of one and all

Rise rainbow children rise
Rise rainbow children rise

Wise one who understood the law
That was handed down from God long ago
Held fast in his belief
That the Lord would bring him another one
Who loved him so
