This step is once again our first
We set our feet upon a virgin land.
We hold the promise of the earth in our hand.
No flood from heaven comes again,
No deluge will destroy and purify.
We hold the fate of man and men, in our hands.
Now at this dawn so green and glad, we pray that we may long remember
How lovely was the world we had.
In the Beginning.
Of all the gifts we have received,
One is precious and most terrible.
The will in each of us is free,
Its in our hands.
And if someday we hear a voice,
If he should speak again, our silent father.
All he will tell us is the choice, is in our hands.
Our hands can choose to drop the knife.
Our hearts can choose to stop the hating.
For every moment of our lives, is the beginning.
There is no journey gone so far, so far we can not stop and change direction.
No doom is written in the sky.
Its' in our hands, it's in our hands.
We can not know what will occur.
Just make our journey worth the taking.
And pray we're wiser than we were,
In the Beginning, it's the beginning,
Now we begin.
Children of Eden, grant us your pardon
All that we leave to you, is the unknown.
Children of Eden, seek for your garden,
You and your children to come,
Someday to come Home.
