Song of Sorek

Wonderful world

I leave my footprints along the sun-drenched flood line
I try to make a pattern, a mark so neat
But the waves are playing with those prints of mine
And nearly sweep me of my feet

Oh, to touch Your great creation
Oh, to be a part of Your wonderful world


I leave my footprints on this ancient mountain trail
The earth beneath my soles is soaking wet
The mud is sticking to my feet, still small and frail
And paints them with her deepest color red

Oh, to touch Your great creation
Oh, to be a part of Your wonderful world

I leave my footprints in the gold of glowing desert sand
My toes are digging for the cooler layer
While I let some dust run softly through my hand
And whisper all these thoughts in prayer

Oh, to touch Your great creation
Oh, to be a part of Your wonderful world
