Creation
Music by Yeliana
Lyrics by Harriet Schock
Every star
Every moon
Gives a light
That vanishes too soon
To solve the mystery
Every cloud
In the sky
Laughs out loud
When I stop to question why
Or when or how
I long for the answers
I reach for the truth
And the sweet innocence
That I lost in my youth
When I see a Van Gogh,
Matisse or da Vinci
I will ponder
The act of creation…
Some will say
Long ago
Far away
Some odd coincidence
Was at the start
Mountain range
Human cell
It seems strange
To assume we know so well
These mysteries?
I long for the answers
I reach for the truth
And the sweet innocence
That I lost in my youth
As I listen to Brahms,
Beethoven and Liszt
Do I ponder
The act of creation?
When the heavens thunder
I can’t help but wonder
In the birth
Of a child
Is this earth
Design or chance gone wild?
The future is calling…
I long for the answers
I reach for the truth
And the sweet innocence
That I lost in my youth
When I look at this world
The logic of physics
Can we still hope to doubt
Its creation?
In this here
In this now
This is all
I know somewhere somehow
There is creation.
