Sami Yusuf - Prism

Sami Yusuf - Prism

From album 'The Centre'

| Song Description |

The light of our sun contains all the colours of this world, and the Prism allows us to separate this light in to its "secret layers". Inspired by a phrase from a Hadith Qudsi (Sacred scripture): "When I love him I am his hearing with which he hears, his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which he moves and his foot with which he walks", the Prism is a symbol of discovery, a way of seeing "with which he sees".

| Lyrics |

All of your waves 

Have come from one 

The seed has spread 

The dawn of light 

Has split from white 

To blues and reds 

Behind it all 

There must be more 

Chorus:

Seven colours of day 

Show the light of your way 

Have I found what is lying behind 

The fire in your eyes? 

Do you see what I see? 

And from one breath 

All sound was formed 

Your words could sing 

The prism shares 

Your secret layers 

Unraveling 

Behind it all 

There must be more 

Chorus

Every heart, Every hand, Every head 

Rise up !

Every thought, Every tear, Every smile 

Rise up !

Every fear, Every doubt, Every trouble 

Rise up !

Every hope, Every wish, Every prayer 

Rise Up !

Every faith, Every creed, Every colour 

Rise Up !

Every mind, Every soul, Everyone 

(Rise Up) 

Do you see what I see?
