Lyrics

Air dhomh bhith smaoineachadh leam fhìn Air oibre dìomhair Dhè - Gach gineal thàinig is a dh’fhalbh ’S gach aon na àite fhèin - Chunnaic mi mar gum biodh ann beart Is clò ga chur ri chèil’, ’S mi fhìn mar shnàthainn lag is caol Gam fhighe cothrom rèidh.

Lyrics Translated

As I reflected by myself On the mysterious work of God Each generation came and went And each one in their own place/time I saw as if there was a loom With material being woven together/woven And I saw myself like a weak and narrow thread Being woven surely and smoothly.
