God is the Light How great the wonders of the heavens And the timeless beauty of the night How great – then how great the Creator? And its stars like priceless jewels Far beyond the reach of kings Bow down for the shepherd guiding him home. But how many eyes are closed To the wonder of this night? Like pearls, hidden, deep beneath a dark Stream of desires. But like dreams vanish with the call to prayer And the dawn extinguishes night – here too are signs. God is the Light - God is the Light How great the beauty of the Earth and the creatures Who dwell on her. How great – then how great the Creator? As it's mountains pierce the clouds High about the lives of men Weeping rivers for thousands of years. But how many hearts are closed To the wonders of this sight? Like birds on a cage, asleep with closed wings But as work stops with the call to prayer And the birds recite – here too are signs God is the Light – God is the Light How great the works of man and the things he makes How great – then how great the Creator? Though he strives to reach the heavens He can barely survive The wars of the world he lives in. Yet, how many times he's tried, Himself to immortalise? Like his parents before him in the Garden of Eden But like the sun sets with the call to prayer And surrenders to the night here too are signs God is the Light Everlasting God is the Light Everlasting
