Spirit in the Flesh

The candles are lighted, the blades lie there shining
 soon they'll do their sacred work again
 Covered in linen, fallen in eternal sleep,
 a body prepared on the table
 Now life is gone and the soul has fled to a place that's so far away
 All the things I see given by the maker's hand
 leave me humble and I stand lost in wonder
 It's a perfect alchemy and the undeniable sign
 of a spirit in the flesh, so divine (flesh so divine)
 I met them all from infant to old man,
 opened up their mortal frames so silent
 Noble lady, crooked man, orphan child and centenerian
 look all the same in the inside
 Their life is gone and their souls have fled to a place that's so far away
 All outstanding things I see given by the maker's hand
 leave me humble and I stand lost in wonder
 It's a perfect alchemy and the undeniable sign
 of a spirit in the flesh, so divine
 It's a perfect alchemy and the undeniable sign
 of a spirit in the flesh, so divine (flesh so divine)
 These studies, discoveries, will be my gift to mankind
 All outstanding things I see given by the maker's hand
 leave me humble and I stand lost in wonder
 It's a perfect alchemy and the undeniable sign
 of a spirit in the flesh, so divine
 All outstanding things I see given by the maker's hand
 leave me humble and I stand lost in wonder
 It's a perfect alchemy and the undeniable sign
 of a spirit in the flesh, so divine (flesh so divine)
