She comes saling on the wind, her wings flashing in the sun
On a journey just begun, she flies on
And in the passage of her flight, her song rings out through the night
Full of laughter, full of light, she flies on
Silent water rocking on the morning of our birth
Like an empty cradle waiting to be filled
And from the heart of God the spirit moved upon the earth
Like a mother breathing life into her child
Many were the dreamers whose eyes were given sight
When the spirit filled their dreams with life and form
Deserts turned to gardens, broken hearts found new delight
And then down the ages still she flew
CHORUS
To a gentle girl in Galilee and gentle breeze she came
A whisper softly calling in the dark
The promise of a child of peace whose reign would never end
Mary sang the spirit song within her heart
Flying to the river she waited circling high above
The child now grown so full of grace
As he rose up from the water she swept down from the sky
And she carried him away in her embrace
CHORUS
Long after the deep darkness that fell upon the world
After dawn returned in flame of rising sun
The spirit touched the earth again, again her wings unfurled
Bringing life in wind and fire she flew
