lyrics

The Mind Of the Holy One

I don’t hold up the universe
I don’t hold up this day
I don’t hold together the moon and the stars
I don’t release the sea's rolling waves
I don’t open the eyes of a baby child
I don’t rule the beasts as they run
But I drink in the beauty that's pouring forth
From the Mind of the Holy One

I don’t carry any burden of being alive
That weight is squarely not mine to bear
I don’t believe that fear can last forever
When the open door to heaven is prayer

I don’t wonder if the riches of life will be mine
I don’t worry for the light of the sun
But I drink in the beauty that's pouring forth
From the Mind of the Holy One

Oh, that Mind is a mountain
Whose glory fills the sky
And that Mind is a waterfall
From whom all ideas fly
Whose water is supply
Whose well can never run dry

I don’t hold up the universe
I don’t hold up this day
I don’t hold together the moon and the stars
I don’t release the sea's rolling waves

I don’t open the eyes of a baby child
I don’t rule the beasts as they run
But I drink in the beauty that's pouring forth
From the Mind of the Holy One
