Beth Nielsen Chapman - Dancer To The Drum lyrics

Fast asleep in the dawn of ages The soul of every child Has waited to be born a stranger Underneath the drum of his mothers heart Lying deep in a dream of darkness Where fear has never gone Each spark of a life is started Blind and pure to the world we come Blind and pure to the world we come Each of us a dancer to the drum Each of us a dancer to the drum Blind and pure we come One is born into a life of hunger One will be a king or a rich man's son One will k** out of greed or anger One will give his life for another one There are smiles in the lies of innocence There are blooms in the walls of stone And we will see ourselves In the eyes of everyone we have ever known Everyone we have ever known And the heart, the heart will ever be a witness And precious time, no treasure is worth And the child, the child will carry our existence Through the days that we have on earth Each of us a dancer to the drum Each of us a dancer to the drum Blind and pure we come Fast asleep in the dawn of ages The soul of every child Has waited to be born a stranger Underneath the drum of his mothers heart
