Self-blessing

Posted on by

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.

Self-blessing

Instrument: A-440 (A4) tuning fork

Crown:
Bless me for I am Your child,
In Your image, all supplied.
Live through me, that I may grow,
Ever greater Love to show.

Third Eye:
Bless my eyes that I may see
One in All and You in me.
Light my mind and point of view,
Bringing me Your thoughts of Truth.

Throat:
Bless my voice so that I say
Words of kindness through the day.
May my breath and every sound
Vibrate sweetly all around.

Heart:
Bless my heart that I may love
In communion as the doves.
All-embracing without fear,
Your compassion gathered here.

Solar Plexus:
Bless my center, sacred core,
Intuition, trust and more.
May each feeling be a guide
To Your Spirit deep inside.

Belly/navel:
Bless my belly, soft and warm,
Healed of hurt and safe from harm.
May desire be for the best,
Your creation manifest.

Root:
Bless my root that draws from You,
In its season to produce.
May I live a fruitful time;
Fed by You, I feed in kind..

Hands:
Bless my hands to touch and do
Things that let Your Spirit through.
Working, playing, held in prayer,
Spreading goodness, easing care.

Feet:
Bless my feet to go aright
In Your will and path of life.
May my steps be strong and sure
In Your Presence evermore.

Crown:
Bless me for I am Your child,
In Your image, all supplied.
Live through me, that I may grow,
Ever greater Love to show.
Amen.

God Bless this Human Mess

Posted on by

Instrument: Eventide – Mahogany Concert Ukulele

1. “In my father’s house are many mansions.” But who cares
When all you see is heartache
running up and down the creeking stairs?
And nothin’ I can do or say
Takes anybody’s pain away,
But still I’ll do my best and pray:
Refrain:

2. Every soul in torment has a part that knows the Way.
Lead them, Father, lead them inward
To the bright eternal flame.
‘Cause nothin’ I can do or say
Takes anybody’s pain away,
But still I’ll do my best and pray:
Refrain:

3. In my father’s house are many people in disguise.
They are all His own,
Whether they think it’s Hell or Paradise!
And nothin’ I can do or say
Takes anybody’s pain away,
But still I’ll do my best and pray:
Refrain: (Twice)

God bless, o God bless
This human mess!
God bless, o God bless
This human mess!

Refrain:
God bless
Your people in distress.
God bless
The ones who feel repressed.
God bless
The ones who think they’re less than anybody else.
And God bless, o God bless
This human mess!

Pour out Your Presence

Posted on by

In memory of Nancy Abercrombie, who poured out God’s Presence through music for many wonderful years.

Instruments:
Eventide – Mahogany Concert Ukulele
Soprano Recorder

1. My body is a vessel
Sailing on the waves.
It has lost direction,
Been tossed and blown astray.
And though the ship is sinking,
I can see the stars.
They light the sea of changes
And shine within my heart.
So
Refrain:

2. My body is a cup
Waiting to be filled.
It has known despair
And felt the empty chill.
And though the cup is broken,
It reflects the Light.
The wayshower of freedom,
The Christ in me is bright.
So
Refrain:

3. My body is a Temple
Where Your Truth abides.
And may my doors be open
To worship You inside.
‘Cause You are my foundation,
Building me on earth
Even as in Heaven
Through life and death and birth.
So
Refrain:

Refrain:
Fill me with Your Love!
Touch my soul of clay!
Bless my heart and mind,
So I may pour out Your Presence each day!

Remembering Nancy Abercrombie

Posted on by

A spiritually aware, bright, and talented musician, Nancy Abercrombie recently passed on from this world. She contributed positive, inspirational music to the world and to New Thought Metaphysics in particular. She has been, and will continue to be an inspiration to me personally. Though I never met Nancy in person, I’ve felt her soul through the music she wrote and recorded over her many years of study and service in the Metaphysical field. She will be missed, but lives on in the Love, Spirit and Soul of her music and every life touched by the Presence of God within her.

May God’s blessings and peace be upon all those mourning her passing, and may the Light of the eternal flame burn brightly on this, and every soul’s continuing journey!

Time for Lettin’ Go

Posted on by

All earthly relationships end. Whether through death, divorce or breakup, a move or other situation, all relationships reach a point where they no longer exist as they did before. In effect, it’s the end of the world as we knew it. This change and letting go is often difficult. Here is a song to acknowledge that, and recognize that our only lasting relationship is with the Spirit of God within.

Time for Lettin’ Go – Lyrics

Instrument: Tempo – Seagull Excursion Folk Acoustic Guitar

1. We ran a race as partners, you and I.
We cheered each other onward through the marathon of life.
We felt the wins and losses, and with every one we tried
To do our best, and leave the rest, and take the race in stride.

Refrain:
And it’s been fun, ya know.
A really great run, ya know.
We’ve laughed a lot and hit the spot
And learned to love and grow.
And it’s been real, ya know.
A mighty good deal, ya know.
And even though the teardrops flow,
It’s time for lettin’ go.

2. We came up short together, you and I.
We started out so strong, but hit the wall a couple times.
We bandaged up the scrapes of failed attempts and foolish pride.
We did our best, and passed the test; we’re moving with the tide.
Refrain:

3. We’re standing at the finish, you and I.
We cut the final ribbon, and the gate is open wide.
With every step we each will take, the Spirit is our guide.
We do our best, and ever blessed, we find the strength inside.
Refrain:

Even though I love you so,
It’s time for lettin’ go.
All because I love you so,
It’s time for lettin’ go.

So It Goes

Dreamkeeper – A Collaboration

Posted on by

A Sunday bonus, written in collaboration with Morgan of
Book N Volume.

Morgan is a prolific author and poet of The Fey, nature, magic, fantasy, beauty, the human spirit, and more. She graciously extended an open invitation to write with her, and I was drawn to the opportunity. I’d been working on this song; I had the melody and first verse lyrics at that point.

This could very well be, as first glance seems, a lullaby for babies. But it is also more. My original intention was to write a cradling song for those who experience insomnia. When I shared this with her, Morgan shone her lyrical brilliance in what became our middle verses here.

Those mystically oriented will notice something – it’s not just about going to sleep and sleeping well. It’s a lullaby, a reminder of Promise from the Divine Parent of the Universe. It is the shifting tide of consciousness from “monkey mind” to awakening, expanding awareness. With that I will say no more; may you enjoy the gentle embrace we intended!

Thank you, Morgan, for your thought, time, and above all your Spirit, kindness, and sensitivity!

Dreamkeeper – Lyrics

Instrument: Tempo – Seagull Excursion Folk Acoustic Guitar

Go to sleep, Beloved
One in the Spirit of moon and stars.
Slumber full of blessings
Dreams wake in your heart
Dreams wake in your heart.

Precious Child, My Own
Radiant Light O’er Thy Head is Shone.
Blessings Pour from Heav’n Above
Dreams of Peace and Love
Dreams of Peace and Love.

Rest your thoughts in Moonlit Waves
Fret not, nor question why.
Drift upon the Peaceful Night
Nod your head and Sigh
Nod your head and Sigh.

You are my Beloved
How could you ever be less than safe?
Nestled in my keeping
Dream your Self awake
Dream your Self awake.

Go to sleep, Beloved.

Aquarian Gospel Reading

And now I go my way, but I will pray my Father-God and he will send another Comforter to you, who will abide with you. Behold, this Comforter of God, the Holy Breath, is one with God, but she is one the world cannot receive because it sees her not; it knows her not. But you know her, and will know her, because she will abide within your soul.

These things I speak while with you in the flesh, but when the Holy Breath shall come in power, lo, she will teach you more and more, and bring to your remembrance all the words that I have said to you. There are a multitude of things yet to be said; things that this age cannot receive, because it cannot comprehend. But, lo, I say, Before the great day of the Lord shall come, the Holy Breath will make all mysteries known– The mysteries of the soul, of life, of death, of immortality; the oneness of a man with every other man and with his God. Then will the world be led to truth, and man will be the truth. When she has come, the Comforter, she will convince the world of sin, and of the truth of what I speak, and of the judgement of the just; and then the prince of carnal life will be cast out. And when the Comforter shall come I need not intercede for you; for you will stand approved, and God will know you then as he knows me.
–The Aquarian Gospel 161:35-37, 162:5-11

Mother-Love – Lyrics

Instrument: Tempo – Seagull Excursion Folk Acoustic Guitar

1. Comforter, Counselor,
Holding me within your care.
Holy Breath, ever blessed,
Shelter in the storms that tear.

Refrain 1:
Spirit, one of a kind!
Spirit Divine!

2. Gentle hand, guiding Light,
Teaching me to live and love.
Strong and sweet, still you keep,
Whisp’ring Wisdom from Above.
Refrain 1:

3. Mystery, shining veil,
Often times unseen, unheard.
Yet in the heart, you work your art,
Bringer of eternal Word.
Refrain 1:

4. Mothers here, blessed are you,
Partners of the Father God.
Your Spirit sparks and leaves its mark
On the souls with whom you trod.

Refrain 2: (Twice)
Spirit, One in all kinds!
Spirit Divine!

Hear the voice of the One Divine Spirit,

Earth Day Affirmations

Posted on by

Feel free to use these as reminders, in meditation, contemplation, or
prayer treatment,
on this Earth Day or any day.

Recognition – I recognize that I am one with God. Therefore, I am one with the creations of earth, sky, and beyond.

Meditation – Through my daily practice of meditation, I make and maintain contact with the God-Presence within me – the same God-Presence in the earth, its vegetation, rocks, animals, waters, and all lifeforms.

Guidance – Universal Consciousness or God guides me in how best to respond to and care for the earth and all that live here. I am a living, breathing manifestation of God’s Power, and this Power encourages me to be a vessel of good to the earth and its creatures.

Realization – I realize the earth plane is one of change, evolution, and movement. I respond positively and spiritually when I notice conflict, and God works through me for the highest good of all.

Release – I let go of the need to fix anything, stamp out injustice, resolve conflict, and improve from the outside. As I become more aware of God within me, I respond naturally, and outer conditions improve from within.

Gratitude – I give thanks to the Spirit of the Universe that creates and sustains all life. I see the wonder, beauty, and order of God’s design. I give thanks for this divine Will and Plan and know that it unfolds perfectly in the Mind of God.
