Arthur Brown - The Hymn lyrics

This is my body Hair sticking strangely through my skin make me... oink, oink, oink! But when you stroke my fur... Ow! Miaow! This is my body It is a home for my mind Beating soft time, my clock pumps brain along my skin Where five doorways bring strange travellers before the Father's judgment This is my body It is a temple for my soul Wherein seven stairways bring messengers of freedom To the altar in my heart built on twin pillars of pain and joy There burns the flame of love for my fellow beings We'll build a new world Where creatures live in joyful harmony A love society This is the first fruit Of man's endeavour to be free True sincerity New laws for living Justice risen from charity Knowing each other's minds We will not lie or steal We shall discover Love sprung out of eternity Nature time's fertile womb Communication All children of one family Working for destiny Awaking in the human soul To set our spirit free And make this earth a home Of realised divinity
