Glorious Saturday Meditation: Creation Song [Song]


CREATION SONG
By Josh Garrels

We can hear creation groan
It's crying out for God
Every night when stars come out, I hear creation's song
And it sings, "Oh, Lord!"
And we sing, "Oh, Lord!"
"You are light and You are love.
You are flesh and You are blood
."

Peace will come to those who love
Peace will come to those who love
Jehovah, Jehovah, Jehovah, Jehovah.

We can hear creation groan
It's crying out for God
Every night when stars come out, I hear creation's song
And it sings, "Oh, Lord!"
And we sing, "Oh, Lord!"
"You are light and You are love.
You are flesh and You are blood
."

Peace will come to those who love
Peace will come to those who love
Jehovah, Jehovah, Jehovah, Jehovah,
Jehovah, Jehovah, Jehovah, Jehovah.

A Note From The Gull


I believe in the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

Thank you, Josh Garrels.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

FATHER

Grief have taken hold of me
for my father
when the sun sets
oh, beloved father.

Crying and crying
when the sun goes down
my mind there at Bekulnura
oh, beloved father
mmm....

Two Gumatj ladies crying
ancestor boss ladies Dhuwandjika and Daylulu
when the sun sets
my mind there at the place Gunyanara (Bekulnura)
mmm....
