0:26I never knew you but you seemed to be
0:30To me a great man
0:37Wise as a serpent and gentle
0:40As a hillside white lamb
0:46Still I hear your voice
0:52And I see your choice
0:56It's written on us
1:11I wish I'd know you
1:13And learned the way to walk the narrow path
1:21But I am grateful
1:23That you left your words to follow like a map
1:31Within the dark land you gave us a lamp
1:40By which we might see
1:44And we walk the ground you shook
1:49And we read the words in your book
1:55And learn how to break our own ground
1:59All the lambs will roar beautiful sounds
2:25Still I hear your voice
2:31And I see your choice
2:35It's written on us
2:39And we walk the ground that you shook
2:44And we read the words in your book
2:49And learn how to break our own ground
2:54All the lambs will roar beautiful sounds
I never knew you but you seemed to be To me a great man Wise as a serpent and gentle As a hillside white lamb Still I hear your voice And I see your choice It's written on us I wish I'd know you And learned the way to walk the narrow path But I am grateful That you left your words to follow like a map Within the dark land you gave us a lamp By which we might see And we walk the ground you shook And we read the words in your book And learn how to break our own ground All the lambs will roar beautiful sounds Still I hear your voice And I see your choice It's written on us And we walk the ground that you shook And we read the words in your book And learn how to break our own ground All the lambs will roar beautiful sounds
