[Intro]
[Verse]
People of the thousand-yard stare
Through kitchen pane or out to sea
Seek inward realms to be aware
Of their great Other Hidden Me
[Verse]
To think perchance to dream awake
The tube-train rattle rocks the fix
Heady moments or on the make
The human mind a box of tricks
[Chorus]
The hidden man of the heart - let it be
Not corruptible - let it be
Of a meek and quiet spirit - let it be
In the sight of God - a great price
[Verse]
The diverse days that programme us
A fractious ferment of feeling
Are not enough to microbus
Deep deposits to the ceiling
[Verse]
From whence the chisel chips with care
Or abandon - run wild run free
There to glimpse single strands of hair
Within the stone pure filigree
[Chorus]
The hidden man of the heart - let it be
Not corruptible - let it be
Of a meek and quiet spirit - let it be
In the sight of God - a great price
[Verse]
Humble and good divining rod
The power of Nature that kills
Hunger and w*r all for the sod
The life we bear for spills and thrills
[Verse]
Are you meek - in all that you seek?
The beautified with salvation
Inherit the Earth - are you meek?
Abundance of peace your station
[Chorus]
The hidden man of the heart - let it be
Not corruptible - let it be
Of a meek and quiet spirit - let it be
In the sight of God - a great price
[Verse]
People of the thousand-yard stare
Through kitchen pane or out to sea
Seek inward realms to be aware
Of their great Other Hidden Me
[Verse]
To think perchance to dream awake
The tube-train rattle rocks the fix
Heady moments or on the make
The human mind a box of tricks
[Chorus]
The hidden man of the heart - let it be
Not corruptible - let it be
Of a meek and quiet spirit - let it be
In the sight of God - a great price
[Outro]
