We Are

Learning, sinking, wishing on a star
 Something inherent in this life
 But one must try
 Finding the meaning in it
 Believers holding hands
 Researchers digging in the land
 Every woman and man
 Searching for who we are
 Composed of stars
 (We are)
 Of God's creation
 (We are)
 From dust to dust
 (We are)
 In incarnation
 (We are)
 A single blood
 (We are)
 In everyone
 Tell me a story
 Help me sleep tonight
 What I don't know is over-frightening
 Bring me light
 Bring me some understanding
 Paintings in a cave
 Electronic signals in our brains
 The ever changing story
 Of who we are
 Composed of stars
 (We are)
 Of God's creation
 (We are)
 From dust to dust
 (We are)
 In incarnation
 (We are)
 A single blood
 (We are)
 In everyone
 Through every generation
 Is a question
 Of who we are
 Sculpted from the dust
 Or creatures who crawled out of the mud
 All of us searching for who we are
 Composed of stars
 (We are)
 Of God's creation
 (Who we are)
 From dust to dust
 (We are)
 In incarnation
 (We are)
 A single blood
 (We are)
 In everyone
 (Who we are)
 Composed of stars
 (Who we are)
 Of God's creation
 (We are)
 From dust to dust
 (We are)
 In incarnation
 (We are)
 A single blood
 (We are)
 In everyone
 Ahh, ahh
 Ahh, ahh
 Ahh, ahh—
 So many explanations
 And questions
 Of who we are
