1. Lost on a painted sky,

F C F - C

where the clouds are hung for the poet’s eye,

F - C

you may find him, if you may find him.

C F - C

2. There on a distant shore

F C - F C

by the wings of dreams, through an open door,

F - G G7

you may know him, if you may.

C

Be, as a page that aches for a word,

F C

which speaks on a theme that is timeless

Dm C

and the one God will make for your day.

C F C

Sing, as a song in search of a voice that is silent,

Dm C

and the sun God will make for your way.

3. And we danced to a whispered voice,

F C F C

overheard by the soul, undertook by the heart,

F - C

you may know it, if you may know it.

C - F C

4. While the sand would become the stone,

F C F C

which begat the spark, turned to living bone,

F - G G7

holy holy, sanctus sanctus.

C

Be, as a page that aches for a word,

F C

which speaks on a theme that is timeless

Dm C

and the one God will make for your day.

C F C

Sing, as a song in search of a voice that is silent,

Dm C

and the one God will make for your way.
