lyrics

A very human feeling
Comes stealing over us
Once we grasp that we will die
Catch it staring at us
Round the corners of each joy
And it fills us with a longing
For a life without it there
Like a song from childhood
A melody we know
Re-learnt every time
A regret so poignant
It cuts into the soul
And the tears come out like blood
In a flood soiled with sin
I will sing this song for you
A song of yearning and a prayer
I will sing this song for you
Your ways are not our ways
So you build a bridge between us of yourself
There's a knowing in us
Implanted from the start
That your witness might be heard
Through war and dancing
Through torture death and grave
Still and small your voice pervades
"Come out of dying into life"
I will sing this song for you
A song of needing as a gift
I will sing this song for you
Humbled and uplifted by your love
You are all around us
Symbol you are sign
Sacrament and word
You are aching beauty
The source of all true life
You are in us
You are far, far beyond
All we are
I will sing this song for you
Knowing you is everything
And being loved is heaven
I will sing this song for you
We cannot be worthy
We can only be invited
And this bread
And this wine
Say we are
Thank you
