Meher's True Love |
LyricsWe've walked through life, we've come this farWe're born again to seek the light But, when we find the search is long our hopes get swallowed by the night We pray for help, we seek relief We do not recognize His grace The ways in which He manifests to take our selfish needs away It maybe life can seem unkind and maybe hope is hard to find But, no matter what or how or where know that the Master want's you there Oh, it's Meher's True Love Unable we are to recognize the many ways we stay aloof Some power here, some silver there Our comfort is the very proof So what is He, to help us do, when we so blindly stay the sail? We fight Him here, we fight Him there when he begins to lift our veil How can we take from what You are? You - Mother, Father, Sun and star You, who command the hawk and dove What none will ever rise above Oh it's Meher's True Love Meher we pray to recognize the forms in which Your grace appears The many notes of Your symphony as you slowly draw us near How can we take from what You are? You - Mother, Father, Sun and star You, who command the hawk and dove What none will ever rise above Oh, it's Meher's True Love Oh, it's Meher's True Love (end) |
