You are the ancient and we are just waiting
With imperfect patience, the shape of us changing
You move in the silence of shifting tectonics
You move in the violence, earthquakes you bring on us
This is the way that you move
We are like mountains staring at your stars
Feeling young by comparison but you know who we are
We are just grains insignificant in their own
But in labor pains you are sculpting your own image
This is the way that you move / We are earth that you move
You turn the ground into tall mountain ranges
Eternal and bound in mysterious graces
You are the epicenter of our worth
You slowly but boldly duress us: the rebirth
Like mountains you raise from desolate wasteland
We sing of your praise in grace of your highlands
This is the way that you move us
