Artist: Prince
Album: The 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 2 his woman every day
And she surrendered her discerning of it into his care and keeping
She trusted he would lead in the right way
Her children in subjection 2 her, and she in subjection 2 the wise one
All is in subjection 2 god."

Chorus:
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

D.c
Can I come down there?

Chorus

"As prophesied, the wise one and his woman were tempted by the resistor
He, knowing full well the wise one's love 4 god
Assimilated the woman first and only
