Strickland’s Glen
Sweet waters play
The songs of heaven all day
Birds sing, flying free
As they blend in harmony
The earth quivers
And whispers its welcome
The earth glows
And shows the way
Oh Strickland’s Glen a home
In your arms will always be
Where your stream flows down to the sea
Starlit skies overhead
Nothing spoken, nothing said
A silent cloak, deeply tranquil
Everything has become still
The ether shimmers
And breathes its welcome
Oh Strickland’s Glen a home
In your arms will always be
Where your stream flows down to the sea
Sacred ground I’ve found
Beneath the branches of your trees
Where my heart can feel your gentle peace
Seasons change everything
Yet beneath your truth will ring
A caring friend an open hand
Stretching far beyond this land
Inviting in
Oh Strickland’s Glen a home
In your arms will always be
Where your stream flows down to the sea
Sacred ground I’ve found
Beneath the branches of your trees
Where my heart can feel your gentle peace
Where my heart can feel your gentle peace
Crystal Rainbow Rays
I see you more clearly every day
There’s a star that burns at the core of the words we say
And we touch the moment; it’s a fluid tender wave
We hold our truth in a most gentle way
I hear you more clearly all the time
Ever echoing whispers that soften this heart of mine
And we feel the moment an embrace where we align
Walking within light we know we’ve touched the sky
Crystal rainbow rays
Colouring our lives along this wondrous journey
Crystal rainbow rays
I sense you so strongly far and wide
Endless ebbing and flowing then growing to a rising tide
And then comes the moment our galaxies collide
Floating within light we dive the deepest ocean
Crystal rainbow drops
Flow into our souls like shimmering pearls so pure
Crystal rainbow drops
All the stepping stones
We found a way to cross them
Into our love
The stepping stones
We found a way to cross them
Soaring within light we climb the highest mountain
Crystal rainbow snow
Covering our steps in soothing quiet splendour
Crystal rainbow snow
Flying within light we sail the universe
Crystal rainbow stars
Glowing in our eyes reflecting timeless love
Crystal rainbow stars
Love Upon the Wind
A ray of love upon the wind let it flow to all
A ray of love upon the wind let it flow to all
A light of hope, a light of peace
A light of kindness and compassion
A ray of love upon the wind let it flow to all
A ray of love upon the wind, let it flow to all x4
Open heart, share the breeze of joy
Open arms, embrace all
A ray of love upon the wind let it flow to all
A ray of love upon the wind let it flow to all
A light of hope, a light of peace
A light of kindness and compassion
A ray of love upon the wind let it flow to all
A ray of love .....
Within
Still, so still, so serene, so calm, still
Flow from our feet in the ground until
Until we reach a tranquil shade
A home that lies within
Within, within this moment
Within, within this space
Sun shines in a clearing
Upon a place within
Fly on our wings in the air, until
Until we reach a higher heaven
A home that lies within
Within, within this moment
Within, within this space
Sun shines in a clearing
Upon a place within
Still so still a haven a home within
Stories Unfold
Stories unfold
Ancient footsteps followed
Imprints in the sand
Carried by sea
To a faraway land
Shades deepen in the waves
Colouring the walls of the caves
Stories unfold
Ageless treasures reach out
Words like gold
Infinite wisdom language of old
There was once a maiden
She danced under the full moon
She lay her mantle down
Forlorn his soul was captured
Her beauty and her kind brown eyes
He hid away her gown.
Out on the ocean
Kindred emotion
Hear the call
There was a humble fisherman
Out on the open sea
His heart he gave to a mystic maid
Her song set them free
Now through the swirling storms you hear
Echoes of their love
Mysteries of the tide
Bright orb above
Mmmmmm.......................................................
Hear the call
Stories of old
Timeless legends ever unfold
Rogia
(Rogia is an ancient Celtic word meaning “sacred water”. It is the root word of Reien which are the canals running through Bruges.)
Rogia, Rogia, Rogia, Rogia
Warm is de liefde die vloeit in deze stad
Je voelt het in de muren
Omhelzingen die duren
En een hartstocht die je omvat
Mooi is de straling, het licht in deze stad
Je voelt het op de pleinen
Alle zorgen verdwijnen
Zalige rust op het wandelpad
Hier is de toren
Een troebadoer in mijn hart
Waar de klok van mijn leven start
Rogia, Rogia, Rogia, Rogia
Rogia, Rogia, Rogia, Rogia
Ooh.....
Kalm is de avond die valt in deze stad
Je voelt het aan het water
Vergeet alles tot later
In dit moment het universum bevat
Hier zijn de Reien
Het parelmoer en de glans
De bron van mijn levensdans
Rogia, Rogia, Rogia, Rogia
Ooh.....
Translation from Flemish:
The love flowing in this town is warm
You feel it in its walls
Lasting embraces
And all encompassing passion
The radiance and light in this town is beautiful
You feel it on the town squares
Disappearance of all cares
A path of blissful tranquility
The tower here
Is a troubadour in my heart
Where the clock of my life did start
The evening which falls in this town is calm
You feel it by the water
Forget all till later
The universe is embodied in this moment
Here the Reien
Are the mother of pearl and the gleam
The source of my life dance
The Enchanted Forest
Dooroodoo ...
Take me to the enchanted forest
To hear the children play
Floating there among the leaves
I glide, I drift, I sway
High upon a branch she lay
Wisdom of the trees
Whispered in her heart today
Everlasting breeze
Dooroodoo ...
Take me to the enchanted forest
To hear the children play
Where the dappled sunlight falls
I merge into its ray
Underneath the canopy
Gentle smile awaits
Dooroodoo ...
A mother holds her baby close
Tender love aglow
Lullaby of the forest
Feel that lullaby
Lullaby of the forest
Breathe that lullaby
Dooroodoo ...
Take me to the enchanted forest
To hear the children play
May This Garden Grow
May this garden grow with blossoms new
Sunlit drops of morning dew
Steady tender shoots arise above
Soil embracing roots with love
May, may, may blessings shower down
Air and earth, symphony entwine
May this garden grow with colour true
Radiant in tone and hue
Vivid fragrant herbs release their care
To our gentle souls so fair
May, may, may blessings shower down
Lavender and chamomile peacefully abloom
Sunflowers and marigolds roses’ sweet perfume
Blueberries and cherry trees Flora sings her tune
May this garden grow with leaves so green
Weave a willow branches dream
Quiet, tranquil paths upon the ground
Wonders circling all around
May, may, may blessings shower down
Lavender and chamomile peacefully abloom
Sunflowers and marigolds roses’ sweet perfume
Blueberries and cherry trees Flora sings her tune
May this garden grow with fruit on trees
Echoing of humming bees
Evanescent beauty in the air
Nature breathes a soothing prayer
May, may, may blessings shower down
Lavender and chamomile peacefully abloom
Sunflowers and marigolds roses’ sweet perfume
Blueberries and cherry trees Flora sings her tune .........
Eternal Tones
Bathe my being with the clear quartz healing stream
Cleansing drops from heaven, purifying dream
Soothe my Soul with the hum of healing sounds
Chiming blends of colour bursting through my crown
Pouring into me, whispering in my skin
Pulsating wholly free, eternal tones ring
Grace my heart with the rose quartz healing rays
Pouring into me, whispering in my skin
Pulsating wholly free, eternal tones ring
Deep Peace
(Words from an old Gaelic rune)
Deep peace of the running wave to you
Deep peace of the flowing air to you
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you
Deep peace of the shining stars to you
Deep peace of the gentle night to you
Moon and stars
Pour their healing light on you,
Deep peace to you.
Ooh....... Deep Peace to you
Deep peace of the running wave to you,
Deep peace of the flowing air to you,
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you
Deep peace to you
Ooh....... Deep Peace to you
