Lyrics
Earth, Fire, Water, and Air
Words and music by Richard Hill
Refrain:
Body grows in earth and space
Heart will always flame embrace
Mind like waters filled with life
Soul on restless wind will fly
From the dust of earth we’re born
And return when work is done
In between we reap and till
Flesh and bone seek hope and will
Refrain
Passion finds its life in fire
Quick consumes what e’er lies near
Destroyer or Refiner choose
Heart is broken or renewed
Refrain
Sometimes truth in shadow hides
Making fools of those deemed wise
Sometimes truth in light breaks forth
And fools seem wiser than once thought
Refrain
The wind will blow, one knows not whence
It freely comes, or freely ends
So our spirits long for flight
To play, to dream, to love, to life
Refrain
