Hymns Human lyrics

The voices of the past

Their opuses ring out

Serenades to remind me

That my days are numbered

Not to waste them idly

Their lessons left speak out

Loudly and clearly so

Those who might listen

Their hearts being a guide

Warming the coldest moments

They who passed by here

So long ago, thought silenced

The quiet breezes carry

Their message of hope precious

The lore we come to cherish

And so there is more to being

Not just surviving daily drudgery

For a while is so very short

Wisdom learned through listening

'Til it's time to join the choir
