            F
He has been living, through the pages of our time,
Known as a true man, pure and sublime
              Dm
Comes from the earth, and out of the skies
                             F  
From the four corners of the compass, and into our lives

F
He is followed, He who is true,
To what there is to be believed in, To the spirit of you
