Canticle of Creation

Could only find the instrumental version of this song. Courtesy of http://www.sixmaddens.org/


Verse 1. 
As night gives birth to the dawn 
And I see all the grandeur of each day. 
I long to have and to hold, all the wonder of your heart, 
All the power in your love, all the mystery embodied in your word. 

Chorus 
Spirit breathe your breath of love! 
Creation yearns for you to come. 
Renew your earth, outpour your healing care. 
Lord restore the harmony where humankind may learn to see 
The hope, the dream, in your almighty plan. 

Verse 2. 
The earth is blessed and adorned 
By the breath and presence of your love. 
All those who dwell in this land – shall awaken to your voice, 
They shall stand to give you praise, and your faithfulness will reign for evermore. 

Chorus 2 
Spirit breathe your breath of love! 
Creation yearns for you to come. 
Renew your earth, outpour your healing care. 
Lord restore the harmony where humankind may learn to see 
The hope to dream again in Your almighty plan. 

Repeat Chorus 2 

By ~ Trisha Watts and Monica O’Brien

It's a lovely song, but couldn't find one with the vocals (what I'm saying is that it's not on youtube...)

Checkitout said...

You can find it at www.asonevoice.com.au along with her other tracks. :)

Hey thanks Checkitout, though the way Trish sings is a little too loud and bouncy for my liking...

Karen said...

Lilly, never took you for the "churchy" type :)

One of these days going to try and attend Hillsong with their 20k congregation. If Costello and Howard did it, I can too!
