BLUE OPAL

Time flows with the sunlight
And Earth is on her way;
Time dreams with the sunlight,
And golden is the day........

Tell me about tomorrow,
Tell me this dream
Will never die;
Earth is a precious Light
I follow,
Like a blue opal
In the sky.

I never found flowers in Heaven,
Nor were there trees
Beyond the sun;
Out in the ether
Worlds are barren;
Cradle of Life -
The only one.

- - -Of all the worlds that I have seen
- - -None were blue and none were green;
- - -None was stirred by living air;
- - -Never was a home for Man out there.

We are her rainbow warriors
We are the children
She has borne;
And we must guard her skies
Forever,
Keeping her safe, and
Free from harm.

She is our home and future;
We are the guardians
Of her Life;
And we must watch our
Nations always,
Keeping her shores from
War and strife.

- - -Leave the sea to wash the land;
- - -Leave the forests where they stand;
- - -Blue sky, clouds, and falling rain -
- - -We may never find their like again.

Tell me about tomorrow -
Tell me this Dream
Will never die;
Earth is a precious Light
I follow.......
Like a blue opal
In the sky.

Time flows with the sunlight,
And Earth is on her way;
Time dreams with the sunlight ......
And golden is the day.
