Bukas Palad Song Of Creation
Deep within our hearts dwells the song of our destiny
Sung upon the world's completion when God laughed
heartily
Draw into your heart and drink the song of creation
Unity and beauty, all that Yahweh meant to be
The earth now moans a dirge, she cannot play her
symphony
Creation cannot sing as one for man has lost his melody
A hungry child, a dying sea
A naked forest, tribal emnity
All foretold man has lost his memory
The song of his destiny
REFRAIN:
The whole world needs To sing and dance the song of all
creation
As God's one family
All people, earth and sky
This is our chance to sing the song of creation
The song of all people's salvation
Earth's a fading glory and man's become her enemy
We haven't learned to live in peace with ocean, wind
and trees
The Lord, our God Almighty hears the song of our misery
All His creatures great and small for delivery they
call
The song of our ancestry lies deep in our memory
We still can sing along with all the earth her fading
song
With mother river and father hill
With brother eagle, sister daffodil
To sing as one as on the day the world began
When Yahweh sang with man (REFRAIN)
BRIDGE:
Listen to the strains
In your heart remains
The song of creation
The song of our salvation (REFRAIN)
