Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Solar Fire (UK, 1973)
Father of night, Father of day,
Father, who taketh the darkness away,
Father, who teacheth the bird to fly,
Builder of rainbows up in the sky,
Father of loneliness and pain,
Father of love and Father of rain.
Father of day, Father of night,
Father of black, Father of white,
Father, who build the mountain so high,
Who shapeth the cloud up in the sky,
Father of time, Father of dreams,
Father, who turneth the rivers and streams.
Father of grain, Father of wheat,
Father of cold and Father of heat,
Father of air and Father of trees,
Who dwells in our hearts and our memories,
Father of minutes, Father of days,
Father of whom we most solemnly praise.
In The Beginning, Darkness
Mann/ Rogers/ Slade - Published by B.Feldman & Co LtdDarkness Darkness Darkness
In the Beginning
Solar light warm as ice
Started everything living
Lightning striking -----------
Every life springs fromlight
From the waters come swimming
SUNFIRE
Silence Silence
In the beginning
Silent sound fills the ground
All the oceans are singing
Thunder Roaring
Come the word something stirred
Set the wheel of life spinning
Solar Fire
Rogers/ Slade - Published by B.Feldman & Co LtdSee the morning dancer, crossing the sky,
Turning gold to amber travelling by
He must know the answer
He must know why
Looking for an answer, look to the sky
Shadows getting shorter filling your sight
Brightly burning starfire, life giving light
Dawning into morning
Day into night
Looking for an answer, look to the light
Sunlight streaming burn through the night
First light stealing shine solar fire
Starting from tomorrow look to the sky
There's a new day dawning passing you by
Follow aon life's dance and then you'll know why
Looking for an answer look to the sky
Sunlight etc..
Earth, The Circle
Mann - Published by B.Feldman & Co LtdCircle who beneath my feet
Also stand right above my head
Holding life in your hands so easily
O Circle you are our lives
Circle you contain the flame
And hold it deep inside
You who gave us the air and life we breathe
Circle you are out time
Circle you are where we walk
And you are where we lie
And the colour we hear
And the sound we see
O Circle you are our eyes
