No Change Before Crush
No change before crush
When you crush change comes
Painful unlikable bitter though
Know no change before crush
Farmers crush before change
Toiling under scotch of sun
Sweat to plant the grapes
Pick of the ripe and crush
Oozing juice to brew sweet wine
No change before crush
Miners crush before change
Blast to break rock crush to smelt
Metals of purity in liquid flow
Precious to owners more so to buyers
No change before crush
All crush before change
Sweat through fiery furnace of trials
Suffering and painful experience
Sweet fruit of patience produce
Precious to creation and the Creator
No change before crush
