With the litany of loved and lost Mudcatters this week, this song is worth reposting

When All Thy Names Are One
From It's About Time
Music and lyrics © 1992 Bob Zentz


1. I’ll begin tomorrow, I’ll be on my way (D-D-G-D)
Thy light, thy will be done (D-D-A-A7)
Bid farewell to sorrow, I will sing and pray (D-Bm-G-D)
When all thy names are one (D-G-D-A-D)

(Chorus)

    When all thy names are one, oh Lord (D-G-D-D
    When all thy names are one (G-G-D-A7)
    (sing third line of previous verse) (D-Bm-G-D)
    When all thy names are one (D-G-D-A-D)

2. For those who long for the days gone by
Thy light, thy will be done
And for those who stare at the starry sky
Where all thy names are one (chorus – “where” instead of “when”)

3. The whole world ‘round, they shall praise thy name
Thy light, thy will be done
In a thousand tongues, yet they sound the same
When all thy names are one (chorus)

4. We all live in one building though some preach of doom
Thy light, thy will be done
Why must all thy children dwell in separate rooms?
When all thy names are one (chorus)


We all drink the water from the same deep well
Thy light, thy will be done
Why must one man’s heaven be another’s hell?
When all thy names are one (chorus)
