Mvmt 1: Up on the roof, one
summer
evening. I saw some lights in the hills to the North.
D E C G/A
I wasn’t spooked until they
came
toward me. Tried to escape, but the light brought me fourth.

Mvmt 2: How could this be? A
thousand
billion stars and here’s a blue one cradled in the clouds
Did they know me? They’re not
from
this dimension; my distant children crying out loud.

Mvmt 3: In our narrow view of
God’s
existence. Stranded in a range of the extremes.
What we do could cause our
own
destruction.
We can not survive unless we’re clean.

Mvmt 4: Inside our hearts,
lies the
truth we seek: Freedom from theft, enslavement and fear.

Powers beyond are within our
reach.
Inside our minds dawns a new frontier.

Mvmt 5: Hopeful children in a
world
that’s young. Building glory that is yet to come
Crystal cities like the sun
that
shines. Joyful music in the fields of time.
