Though there is stillness I can hear a heart beat
Though I can't see you, I can hear a sound
Through a veil I feel a hand near me
Reaching through to the other side
Reaching through to the other side
I recieve this body mine?
From womb to grave I now walk an ancient line
One foot follows the other
This stone, this finite place, is it limitless to touch the
I hear a measureless rise
It seems so wondrous just to be alive.

Hindrances, distresses of substance, I turn them over
Those forgotten, I remember, and gather them up in my arms
Like some magic thing twisted and winding, it carries me on
Oh how gorgeous! oh how gorgeous! this struggle now!
This struggle now, in time!
Reaching through to the other side
