lyrics

You are the promise of birth and beginning
Also the hope and fulfillment in death
She is the power that upholds us in our living
She is the miracle that gives and takes our breath

She sustains us
She sustains us

All through the multitudes of going and becoming
All through the dryness and darkness and the fear
She is the gentle hand that rocks our troubled cradle
She is the summer wind that dries our childish tears

She sustains us
She sustains us

Swiftly seasons go around from fruit to flower
Swiftly the flower makes way for the seed
Swiftly realize we wake but for an hour
Then sleep in mother’s arms, the flower with the weed

She sustains us
She sustains us

She sustains us
She sustains us
