Lyrics

How it all started is often debated
Some say this some say that
Mysteries unknown yet await the explorer
Awe and wonder the glittering prize

In the cold vacuum the atom then splitting
One became two became four became eight
Mysteries unknown brought to the present
Awe and wonder the glittering prize

Citizens of heaven and earth
Faiths races peoples and nations
All are part of the human story
Why not live in peace and glory

Atoms united in blocks of life building
One single cell nameless now lost to time
Mysteries unknown being born and then dying
Awe and wonder the glittering prize

Gases coalescing, forces unleashed
Elements forming in the hearts of stars
Mysteries unknown brought to existence
Awe and wonder the glittering prize

Citizens of heaven and earth
Faiths races peoples and nations
All are part of the human story
Why not live in peace and glory

Jupiter’s moons ice rings of Saturn
Small mote of dust we now call our home
Mysteries revealed made visible to all
Earth and all there the glittering prize

Will you sound all the fears that you carry
Share and become the voice of the many
Mysteries unknown being all that unites us
Awe and wonder our glittering prize

Citizens of heaven and earth
Faiths races peoples and nations
All are part of the human story
Why not live in peace and glory
