Like a tiny little bubble of air rises From the bottom of the sea Slips the sapphire silence Up to the surface where it longs to be Up to the light of love To where the air of hope is sweet I'm delirious and I'm delighted And when I finally reach the spot complete With the close of my eyes From the hole in my heart comes A whisper heard Around the world With the close of my eyes From the hole in my heart comes A whisper heard Around the world Whoa! Oh! Let me go of every longing Lord, I know You hear when I pray Everything I couldn't put into words And when no one hears a word I say And when I'm faint of heart, mm Or when there's nothin' I can do But let You know about the flood in my soul I can barely give it up to You With the close of my eyes From the hole in my heart comes A whisper heard Around the world With the close of my eyes From the hole in my heart Comes a whisper heard Around the world Around the world! Oh and when I'm faint of heart When there's nothin' I can do But let You know about the flood in my soul To give it up to You With the close of my eyes From the hole in my heart comes A whisper heard Around the world Whoo! With the close of my eyes From the hole in my heart comes A whisper heard Around the world Ah, ah, ah, ah! With the close of my eyes From the hole in my heart comes A whisper heard Around the world, yeah With the close of my eyes From the hole in my heart comes A whisper heard Around the world Around the world! Na, na, na, na! [scat singing] Slips the sapphire silence Whoo hoo! Like a tiny bubble of air Rises from the bottom of the sea
