Cheryl Wheeler - Pointing At The Sun lyrics

Speeding, sailing, spinning through the firmament And the firmament is speeding somewhere too So beautiful the mystery, we gaze aloft in wonder At all the pieces we can see, at all the stars we're under [Chorus:] And here on earth we praise what God has done Every church proclaims the only one Ants and elephants have lives to run And all the plants are pointing at the sun Who and what and why and where and how and when I don't have a whisper of a clue Do fishes ever look beyond the tank they're in And somehow contemplate creation too? I don't expect to understand, the question's so beyond us The mystery is majesty, humbling and wondrous [Repeat Chorus:] If atoms zip around too fast for us too see If somewhere we are zipping that way too Then some colossal jr. high school nerd might be Adding one to one and getting two Through eyes the size of galaxies, blinking once an eon He's pondering a particle big enough to be on [Repeat Chorus:]
