The first ray of light
The first song of dawn
The first sound we hear
When a new child is born
The start of a day
The end of a night
The touch of a hand
The stars shining bright
And the world turns
Turning and turning
And the world turns
And the world turns
Turning and turning
And the world turns
To stand and to fight
To love and to hold
To dream and to dare
To stand strong and bold
A body decays
Now clost to the grave
Somebody's scared
Someone is brave
The grass in the fields
The sand on the shore
The tide flowing in
The vast ocean's roar
All that is said
All that is done
Is all cast away
Through the power of the sun
