YOUR SOUL, THE WORLD Lyrics by Samuel Ferrer

(Verse 1)
A young man leaves his father and his home
In hopes to find his own philosophy.
He abandons all things he has known
To reconcile an inner harmony.

He stops among monks whose prayers sound like moans
And listens to words from a Holy One,
Knowing he is more than flesh and bone,
The common life he knew before now shunned.

(Chorus)
Rest at the river
Listen well and stare,
Let it teach you
How to hear.
The river sings
And its children call to you,
Its song is
Heard by the few.

(Verse II)
The sound of water stills him in the woods,
The voice of nature stops the need to roam.
Floating words sink and make sound fluid,
The river’s song now chills him to the bone.

(Chorus)

(Coda)
A-u-m is the bow
Arrow, the soul.
Your heart a pearl
Your soul, the world.

(Chorus)
