about
Recorded in 2010, this is a song I wrote for my husband after we crossed the Atlantic Ocean and were making our way down to the Brazilian Amazon. A song of hope, love, a long night's journey and gratitude for the dawning of each new day.
lyrics
In the silence of the darkness
In the stillness of the forest
Lies a candle of trust in the light of being
To this holy night
I surrender my life
And I thank you for meeting me here
In this light in this truth of our being
I thank you for meeting me here
In this light in this truth of our being
Through the turning of the night sky
I am guided on a pathway
That leads me to a faith deep within
In the light of the dawn
A new love is born
And I thank you for meeting me here
In this love in this truth of our being
I thank you for meeting me here
In this love in this truth of our being
Though the journey's not over
In my heart I've a lover
Who wakes me from the clouds of my sleep
By the light of the sun
I remember the one
And I thank you for meeting me here
In this light in this truth of our being
I thank you for meeting me here
In this love in this truth of our being
For the earth's love
I'm so grateful,
Rising up through the soles of my feet
In this life I belong
I am dancing this song
And I thank you for meeting me here
In this love in this truth of our being
I thank you for meeting me here
In this love in this truth of our being
Woo-oh heya hey ho
It's the way of the heart
Woo-oh heya hey ho
We will never be apart

I heard a few of the songs from this album at a sacred sound healing retreat. My favourite tracks are Que Florezca La Luz and Nuestro Mundo. Absolutely stunning music I never get tired of listening. Dj Rise
