Just a Journey
Steve Cooney
I heard the rhythm of her wings,
an enchanting lover's dream
O how peacefully she sings,
dancing in the midnight stream
Open hearted full of light,
and breathing sweetly scented air
She'll be travelling tonight,
with all our people everywhere
O what a world is this,
heaven clear within our call
A smoky ribbon gently rising is bushfire dreaming
All our people gathering
before the coming harvesting
We are wheat for the bread,
we are wind and fire... and Law
I see the stars that blaze the dawn
Of the Coming Living Day
O, what a time is this,
the time of choosing of our way...
For there is no unknown,
No uncertainty at all, for the only One
who is forever, and can never fall...
O what a world is this,
heaven clear within our call
A smoky ribbon gently rising is bushfire dreaming
All our people gathering
before the coming harvesting
We are wheat for the bread,
we are wind and fire and Law
Over countless waves and winds,
a message hitting in our hearts
get up and make a dream real,
and don't be sitting in the dark!
I've been travelling for years,
more than half a million miles
And if I weigh the veil of tears
Against the laughter, and the smiles,
I'll be happy, for I'll know that what
has only come to pass
Is just a journey of a Spirit through a lifetime's changing,
Re-arranging your own self,
in accordance with the Light
And with your own true Spirit,
and may Peace be your tonight
