and where it is going to, no one can say;
but where it is passing our hearts are awaking
to grope from the darkness and reach for the day.
2 The bright wind is blowing, the bright wind of heaven,
and many old thoughts will be winnowed away;
the husk that is blown is the chaff of our hating,
the seed that is left is the hope for our day.
3 The bright wind is blowing, the bright wind of heaven,
the love that it kindles will never betray;
the fire that it fans is the warmth of our caring,
so lean on the wind - it will show us the way. Languages: English Tune Title: THE BRIGHT WIND OF HEAVEN
