01 Sacred Origin

Behold the One Life in all creation

The source of being and all becoming

By which living things proceed in action

According to their appointed calling

Being like a seed of a giant tree

Potential life becomes actual

Or like a tree growing strong and free

Reflecting its own past primordial

 With great renewal for its destiny                          

       It links the ages from past to future                    

 While its present toil of activity                                                   The One Life

 Speaks of an epic of many features                                          Soneta 043

 Glorious is the sacred origin                                                       Anglicia

 And that distant time when life did begin                                  AD 2002

02 Great Creator

God the Holy One and sole origin

With no beginning or a final end

By his divine will all things did begin

To come in stages according to plan

      God is the source and creator of all

      By whom the the One Life came forth to exist

   Through His divine light ever eternal

        The whole creation it truly consists

                                                By a process that generates the world

                                                  And many creatures including mankind

The One Life                            His mighty command forever unfolds

Soneta 044                                 A hidden desires for sages to find

Anglicia                                        The great creator wishes to be named

AD 2002                                         By His creation he asks to be loved

                                                                                       [Back]

 

03 Whole Creation

The whole creation sings a joyful song

Proclaiming her lord and beloved one

Even the great stars in their cosmic throng

Laud with their lights the holy name divine

Magnificiently life evolved to grow

Preparing the day for mankind to come

To reach the heavens from a state so low

As common creature though looking wholesome

Regular cycles of mother nature                              

Guides every life with justice and mercy               

            Endowing the world with many features                                   The One Life

               For the survival of humanity                                                         Soneta 045

                 From the mountain heights to the ocean depths                      Anglicia

                 All life is nurtured from birth unto death                                       AD 2002  

                                                                [Back]

 

04 Whole Man

Born in the image and likeness of God

Mankind struggles on to define his place

That he may carry the commanding word

To bring the blessings from a realm of grace

      Bearing the mission to civilize earth

      From life mankind learns the will of heaven

   Even if at times it seems like a myth

         His dreams keep the path of wisdom open

                                                Whenever folly dawns in human hearts

                                                   Bringing destruction and great tragedy

The One Life                            The voice within him shall speak like a bard

Soneta 046                                  Again to remind his great destiny

Anglicia                                          Mankind is the crown of evolution

AD 2002                                           And lordly stewards of God’s creation

                                                                                             [Back]

 

05 Great Harvest

During planting and blessed harvesting

The good news of life is celebrated

With rites that exalt great love abiding

By which all beings shall be united

With blessings the good lord favours mankind

For prayers offered ever faithfully

While nature provides in ways that refine

The patterns of life always graciously

Within the One Life each carries a role                     

              To complete the joys of true existence                 

            And none shall be left outside the great call                              The One Life

              To embrace the path of experience                                              Soneta 047

Life is glorious and full of greatness                                             Anglicia

Its great renewal brings on good changes                                  AD 2002
