All Seems Beautiful to Me - Voces8/Eric Whitacre

Lyrics by：Walt Whitman

Composed by：Eric Whitacre

From this hour I ordain myself

Loos'd of imaginary lines

Going where I list

My own master total and absolute

Listening to others

Considering well what they say

Pausing searching

Receiving contemplating

Gently but with undeniable will

Divesting myself from

The holds that would hold me

I inhale great draughts of space

The East and the West are mine

And the North and the South are mine

I am larger better than I thought

I did not know I held so much goodness

All seems beautiful to me

All seems beautiful to me

I can repeat over and over

To men and women

You you have done such good to me

I would do the same to you

You have done such good to me

I I would do the same to you

You have done such good to me

I would do the same to you

I will recruit for myself

And you as I go

I will scatter myself among

Men and women as I go

Since under mistletoe

Since Mary said to go

Men and women as I go

I will toss a new gladness

And roughness among them

Whoever denies me it shall

Not trouble me

Whoever accepts me he or she shall

Be blessed and shall bless me
