Poets and musicians throughout history have reached to touch the intangible and spoken to express the inexpressible. Here are some of our favorite musicians and their music. We enjoy listening in our spare time, or playing these songs before our seated and guided meditations.
Don’t let your mind get weary and confused
Your will be still, don’t try
Don’t let your heart get heavy child
Inside you there’s a strength that lies
Inside
Don’t let your soul get lonely child
It’s only time, it will go by
Don’t look for love in faces, places
It’s in you, that’s where you’ll find
Kindness
Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now
Don’t lose your faith in me
And I will try not to lose faith in you
Don’t put your trust in walls
‘Cause walls will only crush you when they fall
Down
Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now
From a distance the world looks blue and green
And the snow-capped mountains white
From a distance the ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flight
From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It’s the voice of hope
It’s the voice of peace
It’s the voice of every man
From a distance we all have enough
And no one is in need
There are no guns, no bombs, no disease
No hungry mouths to feed
From a distance we are instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope
Playing songs of peace
They’re the songs of every man
God is watching us
God is watching us
God is watching us
From a distance
From a distance you look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance I can’t comprehend
What all this war is for
From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It’s the hope of hopes
It’s the love of loves
It’s the heart of every man
It’s the hope of hopes
It’s the love of loves
It’s the song of every man

Go with the flow
No more holding on
Release, let go and surrender
Her waters will carry you to the ocean
Deep within your heart you’ll remember
We are made of water, like the river we know
How to release our fears and let go
We are made of water, like the river we know
How to trust that our path brings us home
Yemanja, Mamãe Oxum
Yemanja, Mamãe Oxum
See how she goes the way of least resistance
See how she moves with the land
Carving her path with a heart of forgiveness
Acceptance and compassion
We are made of water, like the river we know
How to release our fears and let go
We are made of water, like the river we know
How to trust that our path brings us home
Yemanja, Mamãe Oxum
Yemanja, Mamãe Oxum
I receive your messages into my being
I learn to listen, I pray to heal
I return and I welcome back all of me
I am whole, I am complete and I am free like water
I am free like water
Like water
We return to the Ocean like water
Endless silver
Wave forms crashing
Sea’s too big to fit in a frame
Nothing’s too big to fit in my heart
Seas come, seas go
Where they stood deserts blow
Time’s too big to fit in the brain
Nothing’s too big to fit in my heart
Space-time strings bend
World without end
God’s too big to fit in a book
Nothing’s too big to fit in my heart
