I Wonder

I wonder if time stood still
Where on Earth would we be going
Far from the lands we know
or returning
The hunger in hearts to fill

I wonder if life stood by
Would this flame inside keep burning
Darkened with ages long
or all-consuming
While movement of the stars goes on

And somewhere beyond the stars
The universe forgives
And somewhere beneath the stares
The keeper of our fears is gone

Kyrie eleison
Christe eleison
Kyrie eleison

I wander the silver moon
Where the beat of life has faltered
Time is a grain of sand
and sand is a feather
And all we have is who we are

And somewhere beyond the stars
The universe forgives
And somewhere beneath the stares
The keeper of our fears is gone
