When I was young You woke me with the sound of song The wind and rhythm drew me along I echoed in the hymn of the dawn I turned, and turned This dance that all the planets learned In circles, 'round the stars as they burned I praise You as I orbit and turn Declaring glory, glory Declaring glory, glory The mountains rise The forest grow before my eyes The moments and the seasons in mind Then turn again, embracing the tide The waters fall And carve their way across my [soul?] Their canyons cutting deep in my soul I praise You while the rivers still roar Declaring glory, glory Declaring glory, glory New life begins Your creatures dance across my skin Like me, they have Your Spirit within But soon they fade away as I spin They fall to dust And dress me in decay and rust Their secrets bury deep in my crust I praise You in the layers of dust Declaring glory, glory Declaring glory, glory All the rocks wear down Beneath passing of the crowds The rivers run until they run out I praise You till my fire's run out I praise You till my fire's run out I praise You till my fire's run out I'll praise my Maker in every age I'll praise my Maker in every age I'll praise my Maker in every age (glory, glory) I'll praise my Maker in every age (glory, glory) Glory (oh, oh) Glory Glory
