Oh my soul, my spirit free,
Free of my past, my self, my destiny,
Open my arms, my wings, and fly,
To join the people of my tribe, my spirit family

Sure as the river runs its course through rock and trees
We will all find a place of being In life community

The cleansing waters of the Mother healing me,
Are running through my family tree,
Like strings across a lyre

The ever wild wings of this flock,
Gathering at the hour of the dark,
The journey’s long – the to and from,
And at the beating of the drum,
We’ll meet around the fire.

Oh holy spirit of the flame transform these hands,
That hold the plants and work the land,
And lift our spirits higher.

Oh Mother Earth we are your children giving thanks,
The sacred path, this Divine plan,
Our journey’s to inspire.

Hallelujah ! Hallelujah ! Hallelujah ! Hallelujah !

Blessings on all ancestors
My mother, my father, you gave me life. Thank you

In my heart we are together,
This gift of love goes on forever.
In my heart we are together,
This gift of life I’ll always treasure
