Starwheel of Grace

Surrounded by eternal truth

Men run from it and hide

It ainít going nowhere

And a puny life of pride

Ainít gonna change a thing

That God has not ordained

Itís His way or the hard way

Cause the starwheel rolls along

The starwheel sings its song

And it has its destiny a destination

At the end of historyí a cosmic conflagration

Resolved in a rhapsodic rhyme

As we wheel through time

As we whirl through space

On a starwheel of GraceÝÝÝÝÝ

Like a crazy cosmic boomarang

It will return, and it will hang

Safe in the hand that saw it released

And in this New Jerusalem

we will find peace.

For now the spirals of change

Explode and rearrange

As a cosmic comic tragedy

Releasing its results to me

And disintegration reigns

As the starwheel rattles its chains

For now but not forever

For now but not forever

For it will all be resolved

But now the mystery

Remains unsolved.

Cause the starwheel rolls along

The starwheel sings its song

And it has its destiny a destination

At the end of historyís

a cosmic conflagration

Resolved in a rhapsodic rhyme

As we wheel through time

As we whirl through space

On a starwheel of Grace
