Lyrics
Dear God, dear stars, dear trees, dear sky
Dear peoples, dear everything, dear God
God is inside me and everyone else
That was or ever will be
I came into this world with God
And when I finally looked inside, I found it
Just as close as my breath is to me
Rising
Rising
Rising
Like the sun
Is the hope that sets us free
Your heart beat
Make my heart beat
When we
Share love
Like a blade of corn
Like a honeybee
Like a waterfall
All a part of me
Like the color purple
Where do it come from?
Now my eyes are open
Look what god has done
It take a grain of love
To make a mighty tree
Even the smallest voice
Can make a harmony
Like a drop of water
Keep the river high
There are miracles
For you and I
Like a blade of corn
Like a honeybee
Like a waterfall
All a part of me
Like the color purple
Where do it come from?
Now my eyes are open
Look what god has done
I don't think us feel old at all
I think this is the youngest us ever felt
Amen
