Lyrics
To see the world in a grain of sand
and heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
and eternity in an hour.
To see the world in a grain of sand
and heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
and eternity in an hour.
Comments
This is a piece written for a Male Voice Choir.
These are the famous opening lines of "Auguries of Innocence," an 1803 poem by the English poet and visionary William Blake.
Feedback
Didn't like this or connect to it at all when I first listened to it a few weeks ago. However, having listened to it again today the melody is quite beautiful (love the lyrics) and could be worth progressing. I think that at some points there needs to be a build up in background music and at other points it needs to be quite stark.
