On that moment before all moments
On that morn before the world was born
In this lowly world I hear
That Music near and far
Did we the Cadence of Divine Music hear.
Did we the Cadence of Divine Music hear
In this lowly world I hear
That Music near and far
In the plucking of the oud
The oud and the tar
And the shephard's ney breathing upon the hills,
And the chanting of the birds and singing of the whales,
And the silent invocation of mountains
And the stars, the stars...
But most of all it's in solitude with Thee,
When I and Thou are alone in intimacy,
That I hear so clearly the cadence of Music Divine
Did we the cadence of Divine Music hear...
