JOURNEY SONG

and from this silence, let me follow the Song
O Great Song, at the rising of a well-spring
O Great Song, as I tumble
from this silence to the ceaseless singing sea
let me follow you, swallow you, and sing

Enough light for the journey, and breath enough
enough fire for the journey, and love enough
enough road for the journey, and will enough
and all along the way to hear the song that we are.

O Great Song, in which we all fly home
Great Song, a moment and we’re gone

O Great Song Great River of Song
