if we had no rhythm
everything discordant
who would want to sing
if everything refused to vibrate
where would we be now
if light decided not to shine
would God still exist
or is God like light
something untouchable and divine
going where we're going
all those prophetic signs
along our storied way
glory some may say
ringing with universal design
sacred resonance
enlightening our spiritual way
this rhythm we keep
both  day and night
these songs we sing
something good and right
showering the world
with hope and joy
sharing celestial light
nurturing every glorious girl and boy
