"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
The 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
Flying 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
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 she with five others were banished
From the rainbow forever
Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise
Flying 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
(Ooh)
Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise
Flying 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 your real father?
The everlasting one
The one who came from nothing
And nothing is what everything comes
The one who commands your mama
With the simple phrase 'I am'
Every time that she obeys
She gives birth to the Son of Man
Who is this?
Reproduction of the new breed leader
Stand up, organize
Reproduction of the new breed leader
Stand up, organize
The agreement with every birth
We keep it so
Never changing one piece of it
In fear of what would unfold
The scales would then become unbalanced
And thus would begin the fall
The sin of one within become the sin of one and all
Now, c'mon
Rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise
(Rainbow children)
Rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise
(Rainbow children)
Rise, rainbow children, rise
Rise, rainbow children, rise
The 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
They went about the work of building
A new nation
The rainbow children
The 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
Flying 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
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 she with five others were banished
From the rainbow forever
Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise
Flying 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
(Ooh)
Just like the sun, the rainbow children rise
Flying 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 your real father?
The everlasting one
The one who came from nothing
And nothing is what everything comes
The one who commands your mama
With the simple phrase 'I am'
Every time that she obeys
She gives birth to the Son of Man
Who is this?
Reproduction of the new breed leader
Stand up, organize
Reproduction of the new breed leader

The sin of one within become the sin of one and all
Now, c'mon
Rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise
(Rainbow children)
Rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise
(Rainbow children)
Rise, rainbow children, rise
Rise, rainbow children, rise
The 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
