DESCRIPTION:
Children of the Earth
Once dust but now life
Living in tents of flesh and bones
We hold a spiritual fire
Set a flame in my heart
Illuminate the darkest hours
When I wait before the dawn to see
The glory and the power of the Lord
Hallelujah, hallelujah
So faint the impatient can’t hear
The sound of the one without years
The culmination of every child’s tears
Form tide breaking on the eternal lands
Time stands still
In the moment when we are healed
I questioned if this was real
But then I opened up my heart and I could feel
The feather of a bird in the wind
Fire in the brush if we only
Speak when we must
A hush of heart will become a good treausure
Kept in a place without systems of measure
But as real as an undying love
We will discern what comes from above
Compared to that which could never be sustained
The season of rain will bring labor pain
But its end will be the most wonderful
Joy, Oh Lord
