Desert Father [Song]

DESERT FATHER
By Josh Garrels
Album: Jacaranda

When we were young
We walked where we wanted to
Life was ours

And now we're grown old
We go where we're told
The Lord's Spirit calls

He's singing
Follow my road to sorrow and joy
Be intertwined

And find
All things are under my wings
And rise
Given time

Oh my
Brother sun, sister moon
All children of light

Fly around the world
Let the glory be unfurled
All things are made new

We're marching on
To a spirit song
That no man can cage

In lands of dead wood
That reject the good
From our old Father's hands

But we run free
And weep gracefully
In a world
Dark and cold

Hold on
All you, who wait by the blue shores
For Him

To part the water
Desert Father
Show us a new way

The impossible dream
Through the deep and the unseen
Carry us home

Please part the water
Desert Father
Show us a new way

The impossible dream
Through the deep and the unseen
Carry us home.

Note From The Gull

Thank you, Josh Garrels, for this song from the soul.  The contemplative will turn to stand still and listen.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
Guanaguanare
