ii. gratia

we may find a trace

of a state of grace

in the saddest face

something is there

how the rivers flow

we may never know

but it goes to show

something is there

this guiding light

will burn so bright

so much wonder around us

all the love in the air

let the good that surrounds us

help us to always care

then the seeds we sow

will survive and grow

and we all will know

something is there

this guiding light

will burn so bright

so much wonder around us

all the love in the air

let the good that surrounds us

help us to always care

in this world where ever present dangers

circle round our family heart

like a throng of hostile strangers eager for a war to start

there appears a friend's familiar face

oh sweet relief

the heart goes to a warmer place

and this we prize

and this we hold so dear

this humble state of grace

and this we prize

for this we hold so dear

this state of grace

we may find a trace

of this state of grace

in the saddest face

something is there

how the rivers flow

we may never know

but it goes to show

something is there

this guiding light

will burn so bright

so much wonder around us

all the love in the air

let the goog that surrounds us

help us to always care

life aboard this fast revolver still remains a magic mystery

loud reports of anger fill the pages of our history

those of us with love can now embrace

with sweet relief a life lived at a gentler pace

and this we prize

and this we hold so dear

this humble state of grace

and this we prize

for this we hold so dear

this humble state of grace

in the night a daffodil

is battered by the father of all storms

daybreak sees it stand alone

amongst a field of lifeless forms

rays of light illuminate

where sweet relief presents a shining yellow face

and this we prize

and this we hold so dear

this humble state of grace

we may find a trace

of a state of grace

in the saddest face

something is there

how the rivers flow

we may never know

but it goes to show

something is there

this guiding light

will burn so bright

so much wonder around us

all the love in the air

let the good that surrounds us

help us to always care

the the seeds we sow

will survive and grow

and we all will know

something is there

this guiding light

will burn so bright

so much wonder around us

all the love in the air

let the good that surrounds us

help us to always care

and this we prize

for this we hold so dear

this humble state of grace
