It was the first song
When the sun rose and turned the dark to dawn
The tides cried, The winds tried
To see who sang , The first song

It began when time began
Deep inside Mother Earth
So creation could sing out
Her pain and loss, and joy and mirth

It was the first song
When the sun rose and turned the dark to dawn
The tides cried, The winds tried
To see who sang , The first song

Lullaby of the mother with her newborn child
The chant of the prayerful
The song of the soldier as he rides to war
The melodies of the soulful

It was the first song
When the sun rose and turned the dark to dawn
The tides cried, The winds tried
To see who sang , The first song

It’s the message to the world
No one owns it
You were there for its birth
You are here to claim it

It was the first song
When the sun rose and turned the dark to dawn
The tides cried, The winds tried
To see who sang , The first song

The wind blew secrets through the trees
The crackling fire brought them to their knees
                            The Heavens opened and the rains poured down
                            Then mankind joined the sound

It’s the song of the past and to-days desire
Unknown futures from the forging of the fire
                         Listen closely to the song
                    It echos on and on

It was the first song
When the sun rose and turned the dark to dawn
The tides cried, The winds tried
To see who sang , The first songThe First Song
