1. Our heart is the center of body and mind,
A chapel where seeking becomes what we find,
The altar connecting the earth and the sky
As One, as One.
2. Our heart is the Light of a being so fair,
A chapel of healing, of comfort and care,
The altar to worship the Lifeforce we share
As One, as One.
3. Our heart is the home of the Spirit that breathes,
A chapel of wisdom we enter in peace,
The altar where burdens are gently released
As One, as One.
4. Our heart is the rhythm of all that we are,
A chapel of Love and the music of stars,
The altar of harmony sung in its parts
As One, as One, as One, as One.

A mystical Thanksgiving (thanks-giving) song, reminding us that no matter whom, or for what, we give thanks, ultimately we give thanks to the God-Presence within ourselves – and all things.
And so, Jesus gives thanks. He gives thanks for basic, simple, and sometimes apparently inadequate resources, not out of fear and insecurity, but out of knowing who He is, having confidence in relationship with the Father. He does not give thanks with the attitude of, “Well, I’d better be grateful for the little bit I have here or God might take even that away.” He does not give thanks in the sense of, “I’ll make myself give thanks because that’s what we’re supposed to do regardless of the circumstances.” He does not even give thanks as some kind of magical formula that will manipulate the situation into a better outcome, saying, “If I give thanks for this small piece of bread the right way, then something miraculous will have to happen and I can get out of this mess.”
No, Jesus gives thanks from an essential understanding of who He is, and because He wants others to know Him, too. In turn, we can give thanks because we know who He is and who we are in relationship with Him. –Dr. April Westbrook
The full article, while written from the perspective of Jesus the person being the life-giver, is still applicable to the Christ Mind that one experiences in mystical awareness.
May we give thanks as Christ did, knowing who we are in relationship with the Father!
Refrain:
Give thanks within, and outward call;
The Presence of the Lord is here.
So greet the Only in the All.
Give thanks within, and outward call.
Through every earthly rise and fall,
In thought and word and deed, be clear.
Give thanks within, and outward call;
The Presence of the Lord is here.
1. Give thanks to those you love and know,
Who let the gentle Spirit flow.
For God is in each precious face,
Imparting to you peace and grace.
Refrain:
2. Give thanks for all upon the earth
That meets the needs you’ve have from birth.
For every demand supplied
Is made and formed by God inside.
Refrain:
3. Give thanks in any circumstance,
As God is leading in the dance.
For orchestrated in His Mind,
Each step is in eternal time.
Refrain:
1. A carefree place to go and play,
A peaceful spot to watch and pray.
The beach so full of ebb and flow
Reminds us of the Truth we know.
Refrain 1:
And when you touch the shells,
Remember all is well.
O hear the sea inside
And deep within your mind.
It’s flowing free and long and strong,
The oneness of the sea in song.
2. The shells that we collect and keep,
We think are beautiful to see.
So many shapes and colored hues,
But none more beautiful than you.
Refrain 1:
3. And when we go back home to live,
We take along the sandy sieve.
Releasing all the thoughts that bind
To cleansing tides of heart and mind.
Refrain 2:
No need to touch the shells
To know that all is well.
The sea of Life inside
Is calm within your mind.
It’s flowing free and long and strong,
The oneness that is you in song.
This is a self-blessing song, inspired by blessing and Chakra-cleansing rituals. Authors include Z Budapest, Diane Stein, and Dianne Sylvan. But while those are Goddess/woman-centered, this song is for everyone. It is my own interpretation and uses only the same body points as these rituals.
You could do this as a meditation any time, as a song, poem, or however it fits into your spiritual practice. It could be a weekly, monthly, New or Full Moon, or celebration ritual. It is most important to be mindful whenever and wherever you do any meditation – simply performing a ritual or routine practice doesn’t make you more aware in itself.

A meditational prayer chant/treatment. Healing is not the result of the music or even the treatment itself, but of connecting with the God-Presence within you. It is the God-Presence alone that does the healing.
Instrument: Tempo – Seagull Excursion Folk Acoustic Guitar
Not so much a doing
As an allowing
Let it be
Let it flow around you
Within you
Through you
Take it in
Without thought
Without judgement
With ease
We hear
But rarely listen
It’s no wonder the quiet seems so harsh!
It’s because we don’t know how to respond
How to listen
We hear sound
And inside we feel it
We sense it around us
When we are truly at ease
Active listening?
That speaks judgement
Rat race thoughts
Opinions
Editorializing
What we need is
Passive listening
Flowing effortlessly
To and from us
Within and around us
Over and through us
And the ability to be comfortable with that
The Universe listens
The Earth listens
The Sky listens
God listens
So why can’t we?
SPOKEN:
Hear the voice of the One Divine Spirit,
the I Am,
the Creator,
the Lifeforce of All.
Know the Truth of the Word;
Feel it;
Speak it;
With all your being
Be it.
For it is who and what
You really are.
SUNG:
1. I Am one
I Am whole
I Am strong
I Am blessed
By the Word
And the Song
Into Love, Light and Peace
Flow perceptions of wrong
I Am one
I Am whole
I Am strong!
2. I am known
I am loved
I am free
I am blessed
By the Christ
Within me
For I carry the Light
With compassion and see
I am known
I am loved
I am free!
Repeat 1-2.
Spoken:
As you Know,
Let it be so.
And so it is!
Amen.
A song for meditational prayer treatment. Whether for health, finances, personal relationships, or any other physical, mental or emotional concern, becoming aware of your Christ Conscious Self promotes lasting change and security.
One Life, My Life – Lyrics
Instrument: Concert Viola
1. There is one River
There is one Life
There is one Spirit
Rippling through time.
I am that River
I am that Life
It is my Spirit
Waiting to shine.
2. From in the darkness
The Light appears
The Dawn absorbing
All stress and fears.
Accepting good now
My Mind is bright
May I be fruitful
In Love and Light.
3. I thank the Spirit
Who dwells in me
For this anointing
That sets me free.
I am the River
I am the Life
Christ Mind is in me
Rippling through time.
Amen.
