Man, just a grain of sand on an island
In a sea of stars
I heard the call to come home
And sweetly, yet urgent as
A mother calls to her wayward son
One who in darkness lingers
Lacking faith I stood rooted
As the darkness wrapped me round she sang
If the stars should then appear
One night in a thousand years
How would man believe and adore
If the light of the city of God was shown there
Would they believe?
If the stars should then appear
One night in a thousand years
This recurring theme beckoned
A song snatched in fragments I heard
Uplifted into infinite space
All as one
The one is all, yes the one, the one is all
On the distant line of the horizon man beholds
Light of his heart as he looks to the sky
He need not question how or why
The perpetual presence of the Higher Mind
In His life, the sublime and the power divine
I watched the morning star burning brightly
I could sense its passion reflected there
In the fire of your eyes
If the stars should then appear
One night in a thousand years
How would man believe and adore
If the light of the city of God was shown there
Would they believe?
If the stars should then appear
One night in a thousand years
The scope of imagination
Searching the dark for a way
Just look to the multitude overhead
All point to the one
The one is all
The power divine
Light of the higher mind
Love, the power divine
Light of the higher mind
Love, the power divine
Yet man still doubts his destiny with God
