Thresholds

© 2006 by Marilyn Strong from the album Songs for SophiaSongs for Sophia album cover
composed by: Marilyn Strong from the Rumi poem Don’t Go Back to Sleep
artist: Marilyn Strong

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don’t go back to sleep!
You must ask for what you really want.
Don’t go back to sleep!

The door is round and open,
Where the two worlds meet.
Go across the Threshold.
Don’t go back to sleep!

composed by: Marilyn Strong from the Mary Oliver poem Wild Geese
artist: Marilyn Strong

You do not have to be good.
You do not have to be good.
You only have to let
The soft Animal
Of your body
Love what it loves!

Joy in the Body.
Joy in the Soul.
Joy in the simple things
That make us whole.

(verse 1 – 2x)
Open my eyes to the miracles around me.
Wake me up, wake me up.

(chorus)
Awaken me! Awaken me! Awaken me! Awaken me!

(verse 2)
Open my ears to Your whispered words of guidance.
Wake me up, wake me up.

(verse 3)
Shake me from my sleep, and stir me from my dreaming.
Wake me up, wake me up.

Back to the River

© 2017 by Abigail McBrideVegas Vortex
composed by: Abbi Spinner McBride, with additional verse by Laughing Starheart
artist: Abbi Spinner McBride

Back to the River,
Back to the Sea
Back to the Ocean,
One with Thee

Back to my Blood,
And back through my Veins
Back to my Heartbeat,
One and the Same

Back to the Forest,
Back to the Fields
Back to the Mountains,
Her Body revealed

Back to my Bones,
Back to my Skin
Back to my Spirit,
The Fire within
