Lyrics & Links to the original episodes for the songs in this ribbon.
by Meg Chittenden
*May our path*
lead us towards one another.
*May our song*
guide us home to ourselves.
Calling us in.
Calling us in again.
*Help us remember
how to begin again*
2. May our hope
May our joy
Trusting our grief that is
our gateway to heal again.
3. May the sun
May the moon
Heeding the voice of
the true light within again.
4. May this land
May the seed
by Una McCann
Oh wind blow away the doubt
circling around my head instead
Let me know the blessing
of my feet upon the ground
Chorus (2x)
(And) walk me home,
(And) walk me home,
(And) walk me home again
Oh moon shine a silver light
illuminating all that I would hide
Guide me through the shadows,
trusting in the steps before me
Chorus
.................
Over and over,
your touch at my shoulder,
guiding me homeward again
.................
Oh mountain, be kind to me,
shelter me from storms that would arise,
wise and silent,
you show me how to follow through
Chorus
unknown, folk tradition
In the land of Oden,
there stands a mountain,
ten thousand miles in the air.
A little bird comes winging
once ev’ry million years and
sharpens its beak
on the mountain
and quickly disappears.
And when that mountain
has worn away,
this til eternity
will be
one single day.
based on quote by
medieval theologian Meister Eckhart
If the only prayer you ever said
was thank you, thank you…
that would be prayer enough
for the rest of your life!
by Matthew Myer Boulton
We are going
to a place where music
falls and fills up everything;
and though it might be a long time,
I know it’s gonna be alright,
‘cause we’ve already started to sing.
