Three
Witnesses
Somewhere
in time Forever andÝ now touch
We
seek the presence Wherein little becomes much
In
the night, think about the silent light
As
the deafening heartbeat of this world gives voice
Oh
apprehend the glorious sight
A
star sends forth its light and we rejoice...
And
the scroll of witness is unfurled
The
message that shines from above
As
truth reveals itself from heaven
As
the light bears the message of God's love
Creator,
Comforter, Perfect Prophet, Priest andÝ
King
Lamb
of the Sacrifice, The Perfect offering
The
cosmos is attending
The
story the star is sending
Nature
sings of heaven's pure delight
Christ
comes to save the world he made tonight.
In
the night, think about the silent light
As
the deafening heartbeat of this world gives voice
Oh
apprehend the glorious sight
A
star sends forth its light and we rejoice...
Creation
is a channel through which his glory shines
Eternal
power and divine nature intertwines
So
it is no use
There
is no excuse
The
truth cannot be suppressed
It
witnesses in righteousness.
As
do these three:
Creation,
Creator and Creation Anew.
They
all agree:
In
Resurrection We see what is true.
Silent
light shows the resurrection way
Speaking
groans beyond what man can say
A
glorious light in the darkness displayed
And
we are become the righteousness of God
And
now it shows from His holy face
No
joy of earth can e're replace
It
sows in tears and in joy it reaps
Our
birth and life and death it keeps
Until
the time to laugh is nigh
No
tear of Adam now have I.
