I’m gonna lose my mind today
To Universal Consciousness!
O beam me up and far away;
I’m gonna lose my mind today!
The Cosmic Force will never change;
It’s greater than the world’s effects.
I’m gonna lose my mind today
To Universal Consciousness!
I’m gonna lose my mind today
To Universal Consciousness!
O beam me up and far away;
I’m gonna lose my mind today!
The Cosmic Force will never change;
It’s greater than the world’s effects.
I’m gonna lose my mind today
To Universal Consciousness!
I can’t see this world
The invisible is known
Internal vision.
Happy Earth Day, everyone!

Now for today’s poem.
Our Earth keeps giving us so much,
Not least water that is a must,
The food we eat so we may live,
The air, its breath a precious gift.
The birds who sing in trees and sky,
The breezes through the trees that sigh,
Each lovely flow’r to see and smell,
A gift that wishes only well.
The Winter, Summer, Fall and Spring
Come bringing changes pondering.
We take for granted time and place,
But Earth deserves our thanks and praise.
Creator in us and above
Has made for us our Earth to love.
So may we shine the Light of Heav’n
On all our bless’d Earth has given!
This hopeful medley on zither contains
Hatikvah (The Hope)
and
Whispering Hope.
You can find their histories and lyrics at the links above. May this arrangement bring you hope!
“Hope” is the thing with feathers –
That perches in the soul –
And sings the tune without the words –
And never stops – at all –
–Emily Dickinson
Acknowledge the Power you hold in your hands.
Wonder how much you can share.
Awaken to Love that the Universe grants.
Realize compassion and care.
Expand! You’re becoming AWARE!
Continuing to share nature themed hymns, here is “How Great Thou Art,” played on zither. The music is a traditional Swedish melody. An 1885 poem by Carl Boberg became the lyrics, originally written in Swedish and later translated into German and Russian. As well-known as the English translation has become, it wasn’t translated until 1925, with another translation in 1949.
I hope you enjoy my zither arrangement, and feel free to share it with others!
My best friend is always near
Through life’s trials, turns and tears,
Helping calm the stress and fears.
My best friend is always near.
Speech or silence matter not,
Understanding never stops.
Right time, right place, on the spot.
Speech or silence matter not.
Love I seek and love I find,
Tender heart and open mind
In discernment ever kind.
Love I seek and love I find.
Any hour of night or day,
This one friend is here to stay
With a lamp to light my way
Any hour of night or day.
Deepest feelings, wishes, cares-
None too big or small to share
What support! Beyond compare!
Deepest feelings, wishes, cares.
Whether filled with pain or peace,
Faithful friendship doesn’t cease.
Learn to give as I receive,
Whether filled with pain or peace.
Who’s this friend so good to me?
Gentle, patient, spirit free?
Seek and find yours. Ask. Receive!
My best friend, in short, is Me!
I am your keeper
Inner temple reflecting
Your perfect image.
Lotus grows in mud
Hope and light bloom from darkness
Let us do the same!
Right now I’m ok.
This is all I really have,
Choice of pain or peace.
