I can no more be bound than the hawk in flight.
And I am the fires that burn in the night.
And I am the shaking and quaking of the earth.
And I am the water of the world’s rebirth.

I am freedom,
I am freedom,
I am freedom,
I am freedom.

I am no more contained that the waves on the sea.
I cannot be chained because I must be free.
And I am the fire that burns in all things.
The bell that tolls with freedom’s call,
shake when you hear me ring.

I am freedom,
I am freedom,
I am freedom,
I am freedom.

Walk the beauty way. Talk the beauty way.
Feel the beauty abide.
Give the beauty way. Live the beauty way.
Be the beauty inside.

We walk with beauty before us.
We walk with beauty behind.
We walk with beauty above us.
We walk with beauty below.

We are encircled by beauty.
We are encircled by love.

(intro)
The moment that is here right now is free-form, spiral leaping flames,
The smack, crack, deadly pop of lead becoming pure.

The moment that is here right now is intuitive rhythm and spontaneous pulse.
It is soul in hand on heart, it is Spirit throbbing true.

The moment that is here right now is trust, with pounding hearts and open eyes,
We are growing roots that stretch down and faith that reaches out.

The moment that is here right now is heartbeat, dancing, kissing union,
Embracing Yes! our highest vision -
As we celebrate all that is right here, and right now.

(chorus – 4x)
The moment we have been praying for is here
Right here, right now!
(descant)
Here and now, here and now

(verses)
Here is the minute, and now is the moment,
and it is passing by -
I’m the clock ticking, I’m the baby kicking,
I am the child’s cry.

Here is the minute and now is the moment
and it is passing by -
I’m the fire burning, I’m the heart yearning,
I am the lover’s sigh.

Here is the minute, and now is the moment,
and it is passing by -
I’m the breath taker, I’m the life maker,
I am the open eye.

(coda)
The moment we have been praying for is here
Right now, right now, right now,…

Be born, live, then die, then
Be born, live, then die…

Die and be re-born again,
Die and be re-born.

Like the Phoenix, and the Grain King
Like the Sun God, and the Moon Queen.
