Hi Jack--

There is a tune, but it's not written down.  Our son, who is a musician, is visiting this weekend and is going to write it down--can send it then.  Til then it's in my head and on tape...the tune is reminiscent of a madrigal melody.  It's part of series called New World Madrigals.

Grace and peace,

Ellie

IN THE FULNESS OF EARTH’S TIME
 
 
In the fullness of earth’s time
In the silent desert night
Unfolds a rose and lifts its head
To the wonder of dawn’s light
Praising life’s strange plight
 
            Creation’s timing is perfect
            Its Mystery rebirth
 
In the stillness of earth’s space
In a crowded city place
Awakes a soul and lifts his head
To the wonder of his fate
Called to lead life’s race
 
            Creation’s timing is perfect
            Its chosenness rebirth
 
In the fullness of earth’s time
Across five thousand lands
Stretch the arms of woman and man
To build the earth again
Joined in life’s strange dance
 
            Creation’s timing is perfect
            Its Mystery rebirth
 
            Creation’s timing is perfect
            Its chosenness rebirth
 
 
                                                ejhs
