I was excited about working on a good ol'-fashioned 4-part choral harmony arrangement this week, but I decided I liked this just fine with one voice and piano.
lyrics
Should I lose my
Good sense of wonder
Should I find my
Awe gone astray
I pray I’m mindful
the lightning’s thunder
As long as life flows
This gift of days
In this endless
Sea of creation
We are but one small
Drop of rain
Let us no way
Forget our station
And raise our voices
In strong refrain
To the heavens we see
To the rivers we know
May the mysteries stay ever so
And the mystic abide
If I speak out
Beyond my power
If I claim to
See in the dark
Lead me homeward
my final hours
Light my vision
with brighter spark
To the heavens we see
To the rivers we know
May the mysteries stay ever so
And the mystic abide
