There are people who want Power,
Maybe it is to ease the pain,
They look at other to instil Fear,
They separate to generate Hate,
They have lost the ability to truly Love,
They strike a pose to cherish Self
They know not that to honour Self.
Is the root of personal Power
And opens the heart to real Love
That helps to ease others’ Pain,
That soothes the wounds caused by Hate
And calms the timid of their Fear.
The Earth is filled with people that Fear
To truly get to know the Self
To look within stirs up their Hate,
And evaporates their worldly Power,
To look within brings too much Pain
And for themselves, they have no Love.
Ah, but there are those who truly Love,
Who reside in a palace of no Fear,
Whose motivation is to ease the Pain
And have no need to cherish Self.
They are the ones with real true Power
And inspire the weeding of all Hate.
If only I could have no Hate
And really fill my heart with Love
I would have no need for worldly Power
And diminish well all my Fear
I could care for others as my Self
And transform to Joy all my Pain.
To all of you who are in Pain,
Unyoke it from the will to Hate,
And let not the thorns wound the Self,
Unyoke it from the will to Hate,
And let not the thorns wound the Self,
Reside in Joy, reside in Love,
Have no anger, have no Fear,
Love is the greatest source of Power.
As we journey forth through future time,
Take time always to reside in Love.
