Ye Earthborn Children of a Star
Author: John G. MacKinnon, 1903-1983 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #319 (1993) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Humanist Teachings Humanity: Women and Men Lyrics: 1 Ye earthborn children of a star
amid the depths of space,
the cosmic wonder from afar
within your minds embrace.
2 Look out, with awe,
upon the art of countless living things;
the counterpoint of part with part,
as nature’s chorus sings.
3 Beyond the wonder you have wrought
within your little time;
the knowledge won, the wisdom sought,
the ornaments of rhyme.
4 Seek deeper still within your souls
and sense the wonder there;
the ceaseless thrust to noble goals
of life, more free and fair.
5 Ye earthborn children of a star
who seek and long and strive,
take humble pride in what you are:
be glad to be alive. Languages: English Tune Title: GREENVILLE
