Five voices sing a lullaby about human weakness and divine comfort, repeating prayers for the world's healing. The piece weaves together devotional language and soothing melodies, invoking heaven's design and the promise of light.
I'll never have the power to control the light. Or conquer half the world, or claim the sun. I'll never be the kind who simply waves her hand and has a million people do the things I wish I could.
But in the eyes of heaven, my place is assured.
I carry with me heaven's grand design.
Gloria, gloria, I will sing the name of the Lord, and he will make me shine.
And I will be like Mother Mary with a blessing in my soul. And I will give the world my eyes so they can see. And I will be like Mother Mary with a blessing in my soul.
And the future of I have the world inside of me.
In the eyes I'm having, my place is assured. I carry with me heaven's breath.
Gloria, Gloria.
I will sing the name of the Lord, and he will make me shine.
And I will be like Mother Mary, with a blessing in my soul.
And I will give the world my all.
So they can see.
And I will be like Mother Mary with a blessing in my soul and the future of the world inside of me.
And I will be like Mother Mary with the power in my hands to heal all things. I'm yet to be, and who will be like Mother Mary and her sufferings?
For the future of the world. For the future of the world.
Inside of me.
