"VOICES"
music and lyrics by James M. MacKay
The sun returning warms the day
As the moon fades with the dawn
The song birds' harmony on high
To the Giver of this newborn sky
Proclaim their songs of joy
Proclaim their songs of joy
The field grass swaying to and fro
As if to join the dance
That the playful autumn leaves began
animated by an unseen hand
That glides without a trace
Swirling into space
And you ask me how I know
How can I be sure
The proof is everywhere
It's close to me and you
Salt spray breezes chill my skin
Their waves churn gray and white
As they rush against the cold red sand
Relentless is their loud demand
A voice that must be heard
Their message must be heard
We'd proclaim our gratitude
But there just aren't the words
To describe such beauty we have seen
In this universe we're witnessing
What everyone can hear
Lord we know you're near
