In the Round
We are caught in the round
To the earth we are bound
We start in the womb and end up in the ground
From the ground we rise
from our lonely demise
and are born to a life, which is twice as wise
As the one before
Our eyes do see more
Our hearts are open and so is the door
Which leads to great wisdom—
the gift of man’s kingdom,
which helps us to know just where we come from
In the womb we begin
or is it the end?
The circle of time tends to transcend
Beyond the limits of ages
We’re released from our cages
and so begins the turning of pages
Of the book Divine
We see the sign
of the Creator’s purpose and Nature’s design
We are caught in the round
To the earth we are bound
We start in the womb and end up in the ground…
