Spacious Time: A song for presence and rest

Lyrics:
I have all the time I need
Plenty of spacious time
I have all the time I need
Plenty of spacious time

All is well
All is fine
All is easy in this sacred time

All is well
All is fine
All is easy in this sacred time

It is safe to rest right now
You are safe
It is safe to rest, my love
So lay your burdens down
Lay your burdens down
Lay your burdens down

Lyrics:

Part 1:
I will allow my heart to be broken
I will allow this river to flow
I will allow my soul to be opened
Breath by breath, steady and slow
Breath by breath, steady and slow

Part 2:
Breath by breath, I grieve you
Breath by breath, I'll know
You will always be here
And I can let you go
Yes, I will let you go

Lyrics:
Mother, mother, mother Earth
Let me tell you how I feel
You have given me such treasure

Great Mother Earth you surround us

Part 1:
Warm sun, cool breeze
Make a little harmony between new leaves

Will they make a whisp or a big rainstorm?

Half day, half night
This land springs to life

Longest day
Sun so high
Blessings rain
From the sky
