Life - Prelude
You knit me together in my mother’s womb
Then you prepare an ultimate destiny for me
You slowly guide me towards your will
And on the way you gave a lot to me
So mysterious the life you gave me
But just as mysterious it is
This life is so magnificent
And you gave it as your gift
Like a diamond from ashes
Carefully you trimmed my life
Into a fine piece of gem into your eyes
‘Til it becomes so polished that I could not ask for more
In this life that you gave
You poured out yourself
You even created me in thy own image
And make me king of this world
