Pioneering down comes the day
The light is on the ground
And I think I will be well

On the lawn of St. John the Divine
Dogs and birds are starting early to arrive
Pioneering down will come the day now

We are driving out into brilliant light
Remember how we saw windmills
On for miles
Like white birds in California skies
Lifting up at once to be near to the sea
Oh drive on, drive on
I will be well, I will be

I can see this on St. Francis Day
All the sadnesses will surely fall away
Pioneering down will come the day now
