One notes cries out to the Living God One note cries out from the depths of one soul Yet captures the soul of all humanity One Lord, one note, one soul
One voice cries out from the silences One soul cries out from the deep solitude Yet captures the sound of a mighty chorus One voice for a whole multitude
Chorus: One Word spoken from the silence One Light Eternal from the darkness of dawn Jesus our Word Incarnated Jesus our Eternal Song
One notes speaks more than a symphony One word speaks more than the prophets of old So our speeches and sermons all lay silent When just one word speaks the depths of all souls
