We Are

Learning, sinking, wishing on a star
Something inherent in this life
But one must try
Finding the meaning in it
Believers holding hands
Researchers digging in the land
Every woman and man
Searching for who we are

(Composed of stars) who we are
(Of God's creation) we are
(From dust to dust) we are
(In incarnation) who we are
(A single blood) we are
(In everyone)

Tell me a story
Help me sleep tonight
What I don't know is over-frightening
Bring me light
Bring me some understanding

Paintings in a cave
Electronic signals in our brains
The ever-changing story
Of who we are

(Composed of stars) who we are
(Of God's creation) who, who we are
(From dust to dust) who we are
(In incarnation) who, who we are
(A single blood) we are
(In everyone)

Through every generation
The question
Of who we are

Sculpted from the dust
Or creatures who crawled out of the mud
All of us searching for who we are

(Composed of stars) we are
(Of God's creation) who we are
(From dust to dust) we are
(In incarnation) we are
(A single blood) we are
(In everyone) who we are

(Composed of stars) who we are
(Of God's creation) we are
(From dust to dust) we are
(In incarnation) we are
(A single blood) we are
(In everyone)

Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
So many explanations
And questions
Of who we are
