Song: Behold

By Novid Shaid, 2002

.

Behold with your heart!

His everlasting light,

Behold with your heart, behold!

Behold with your heart!

This overwhelming sight,

Behold with your heart, behold!

.

Beyond everything

Gazes the True King

Who fashioned all that we know.

Peerless is His might

Endless His timeless light

Find Him through your heart, behold

.

Chorus: Behold with your heart! (…)

.

He lives without sleep

He reigns without fear

His throne is without a heir

He dwells in no place

No era, no space

His light glistens everywhere

.

Chorus: Behold with your heart! (…)

.

The skies and the stars

The lands and the seas

Are nothing other than signs,

Each atom there is

Signals the Unity

That encompasses everything

.

Chorus: Behold with your heart! (…)
