2nd Verse:


A sparrow finds freedom, beholding the sun
In the infinite beauty, we're all joined in one
I reach out before me, and look to the sky
Did I hear someone whisper, did something pass by


chorus


Like a bright star in Heaven, that lights our way home
Like the flower that shattered the stone
