Song of our Soul

Where do we go from here?
Which path do we take?
Let´s journey deep into our hearts
We´re creating our own fate

Let us quieten our minds
Let all noise fall aside
See what it is we find
What in our hearts resides

Nothing holds us back
Just the shackles of our mind
We shake of all hypnosis
We won´t remain confined

Deep space, stillness
Quietest corner of my mind
What do you have to tell me?
Where do I need to shine?

What is it that I can bring
in this pivotal moment in time?
What´s the part I need to play
for this world now to rise?

What´s the gold I hold?
My diamond gift to share?
What can I bring in love and service
to get us all there?
The answers are all there

In each and every one
It´s time to reach within
To know your heart´s true call

It´s time to listen carefully
Hear the song of your soul

Let´s ask ourselves these questions
Let´s waste no more time
Let´s all stand together 
Create a future sublime

Each one´s soul purpose
Can move into the light
It´s time to give it space now
Rise in glory and might

Language of Life 

Our words have the power
to uplift, connect, relate
But also can, so quickly
divide and separate

Can we become the ones
who are aware of what we are saying?
To see that how we choose our words
can be truly liberating

If we tell each other how we feel 
with no sense of blame or judgement
If we can share our heart-felt needs
drop all fear and embarrassment

If we can rise above our pain
See the cause of our frustration
If we can express what´s real for us
without criticism or indignation
If I hear no disapproval
If I hear no demand
Why would I not walk with you?
Why not gladly take your hand?

I would sit and listen carefully
Take the time to really hear 
What it is that´s real for you
You pain, your hopes, your fears

We can sit and talk together
Find a way to work this out
For once you´ve opened your heart to me
I want to help you now, no doubt

This is our true nature
The language of our hearts
This is how we would all relate
were we not distracted from this path

What we may have lost
can easily be re-found
We know in our hearts how to talk to each other
We know the gold it will bring will abound
So much hope for the world lies here
In this question of how we relate
All hatred, all pain can be halted
with our words
It´s never too late

The Artist Within

There´s an artist deep within me
She´s been waiting for her time
While quietly making plans
Drawing inspiration down the line

She´s sat at desks in soul-less jobs
She´s gardened, cooked and cleaned
She´s been a mother and a lover
She´s had ideas and dreamed

She´s waited patiently
understanding all that needed to be done
But she was always quietly wondering
when her time would finally come 

Now she sees an opening
and she´s ready to step out
She sees her time is coming
She wants to shout out loud

She starts to play with colour
Her soul speaks in written words
She loves to sing in harmony
Her longings are now heard

There´s an artist deep within us
There´s an artist in us all
Calmly standing by
Just waiting for our call

In this new world where we are heading
All art will be help up high
It´s value fully respected
Its contribution realised

So let´s paint the world in colour
Let´s dance, sing, perform
Draw, sculpt, tell stories
Build ourselves beautiful homes

Let´s bring art to all we do
welcome beauty into our lives
Reflect nature in all its glory
Allow all creativity to thrive

Artist in me, I am ready
Your time is here and now
I untether you, release you
This will be your finest hour
