And In The Beginning

The ageless face of time
Smiles carefree and is gone
And in its wake leaves nothing
Save future yet to come
And out of fire and time
A world is born and lives
A world still young and virgin
Its face yet to be scarred

And they created man

And he rose out of the dust of the Earth
The misty dawn of creation
And to him they bestowed eternity
The all-meaning circle
No beginning, no end
No beginning, no end

The stage is set for man
The door to life revealed
And in his hands, tomorrow
And in his mind, the key
