while the stars were dancing round the heavens 

the meteors were flying across the skies 

with flashes of light streaking forth

we catch the sight here on this earth

with our far away eyes

I wonder at the distance 

and the miracle the cosmos display 

and that part of our Spirit that connects us

and reaches that source when we pray 

and we are part of the universe 

we can hear the music of the stars

we can follow the path that leads us

to the conductor of life’s symphony 

who directs this divine mystery
