Are We Not One

O are we rivers, coursing every valley
O are we waves upon shores of time
O are we stardust gathered through the ages
Are we not dreams of the one eternal mind

O are we trees rising to the heavens
O are we flowers unfettered by the thorn
O are we pillars of a great eternal temple
Are we not one, O Lord, are we not yours

Have we not joy, in the midst of every shadow
Have we not hope, in the deepest of the dark
Have we not peace, that passes understanding

O are we sons fashioned in your image
O are we daughters carrying your name
O are we brothers across the generations
Are we not sparks from an everlasting flame

Have we not joy, in the midst of every shadow
Have we not hope, in the deepest of the dark
Have we not peace, that passes understanding
Have we not love

O are we light summoned by the light
O are we gleaming and dancing on the shore
Lord, can we hold each other through the crossing
Are we not one, O Lord are we not yours
Are we not one, O Lord are we not yours
