Lyrics:

Did the birds begin to sing,
did the air with music ring,
in the Sacred Grove that day?
Did the creatures on the ground
stop their play and look around
in the Sacred Grove that day?
Did each tree and leaf and limb all listen in,
when the boy began to pray?
Did they one by one by one,
see the Father and the Son,
with Joseph in the grove that day?

Did the sun way up so high
shine down brighter from the sky
on the Sacred Grove that day?
Did all heav’n with one accord
strike a bright and joyous chord
when the boy knelt down to pray?
And I wonder and I wonder where was I?
This took place before my birth.
As a spirit was I one to
see the Father and the Son,
with Joseph in the grove that day?
