Exploring Humanity's Cosmic Journey
Lyrics
The planet was molded from great clouds of dust
The planet was formed from large clouds of dust.
Then molten eruptions would burst through the crust
Molten eruptions broke through the crust during the planet's early stages.
A new sun was shining and covered the earth
A new sun emerged, covering the Earth.
The heavens all knowing acknowledged the birth
The knowledgeable heavens acknowledged the birth of the Earth.
The seas were forming before life began
Seas began to form before the advent of life.
It would take a long time to crawl on the land
Life took a long time to evolve from the seas to land.
The rivers were waiting for the arrival
Rivers awaited the arrival of life.
The lowlands provided a place of survival
Lowlands provided a place for survival.
Man cam from the mud and the ooze and the slime
Man originated from mud, ooze, and slime as part of a master design.
An integral part of a master design
Man is an integral part of a master design.
He gazed at the stars and the moon in the sky
Man observed the stars and the moon in the sky.
Some knew they were going and some wondered why
Some knew they were going (where?), and some wondered why.
Man made a beginning and went to the moon
Man began space exploration and reached the moon.
A few fellow creatures predicted earth's doom
Some beings predicted Earth's doom as a few ventured into space.
His colonisation out into space is more than
Colonization beyond Earth is a significant leap for the entire human race.
A great leap for the whole human race

Some dream of a journey to the neighboring star
Some dream of a journey to a neighboring star.
And some will not listen, they say it's too far
Some are skeptical, considering it too far-fetched.
He'll create a machine and launch it someday
Man will create a machine to launch into space someday.
To reach Alpha Centauri four light years away
The goal is to reach Alpha Centauri, four light years away.
Then evolve to the stars of our galaxy
Humanity will evolve towards the stars in our galaxy.
And write a new chapter of man's destiny
A new chapter of man's destiny will be written.
Man came from the mude and the ooze and the slime
Man originated from mud, ooze, and slime, reiterating an integral part of a master design.
An integral part of a master design
(Continuation of line 28)
