Hermit’s
Song
ŠLisa Perry,1992Breathing
in, breathing out
The cycle spins, there can be no doubt
We watch it roll
We stumble and fall in the currents roar
And yet we know we were meant to soar
Distant vistas call
We perceive nothing, we perceive all
Watch the rise and fall
As we climb the mountain
I’m a’gonna climb the mountain
Distant vistas call
With their mammoth rock and their all perceiving eyes
Watch the rise and fall
As we take another step, take another step
Take another step to the skies
The hermit’s song echoing high on the
mountainside
The currents throng, we ride, we ride, we ride
Garden
Fairy Song
ŠLisa Perry,1995
Weave a web of tiny, golden, lacy ether
Sing a song of joyfulness to help remind your heart
That love is here, it has not gone
We build the forms, we put them on
Spinning wheels of energy will purify
Color heals the blockages and opens up the Inner Eye
Vibration fills the forms with chance
Aligning all for resonance
Particles of light and healing sparkle in the air
Dancing free to join the song of all already there
And Union finds a willing soul
To recognize the Greater Whole
Weave a web of tiny, golden, lacy ether
Little
Butterfly
ŠLisa Perry,1998
Little butterfly fly sweetly on the leaves
I could not think you were more beautiful
Simple in your fleeting joyful dance
Flutter tiny wings you beat a beat that you can
sing to
It’s a silent little happy song
I could listen all day long to you
Dance the dance of sweet rebirth
Fly the flight of joy and mirth
In the garden you are worth a thousand diamonds
Glistening brightly
Be
Overcome
ŠLisa Perry,1992
Life is such a strange, peculiar thing
How we toil and we spin again and again and again
Losing sight of all that lies within
Overcome by the pain of lost vision
Just please remember while your tossing and
spinning
That Truth and Peace are not losing, they’re
winning
And even when you can’t find them at all
You can still hear them call
Mother Nature sings her ageless song
Even in her strife, she pours forth the gift of her life
Every day sunrise and sunset ring
Every tree and vine and flower sing
You can feel our love
Be overcome with the joy
And the angels sing, “You can feel our love”
Be overcome with the joy
Alleluia
Be overcome
It’s
Peace
ŠLisa Perry,1995
It’s peace that we’re looking for
It’s peace we all need
It’s peace we seek desperately
In our pain and distortion and greed
How strange we keep thinking it’s someone
Or something that we have got to find
How strange that we keep looking outside
For what we only find in our hearts and minds
It’s inside. What you’re looking for
It’s inside. What you need
It’s inside. What you seek desperately
Oh baby it’s inside
We’re all singing the same sad story
We’re walking the same fine line
Anger, distrust, and resentment
Vibrate time after time after time
How strange that it keeps us from seeing
All the things we want to see
How strange that it keeps us from being
All the things we want to be
But you could shake it up
You could make it up, baby
Break it up now
You could fill it up
You could thrill it up, baby
Heal it up now. Chorus
Fear and deep frustration
We keep telling ourselves we’re victims
Instead of looking for sweet inspiration
In the stillness we crave and we need
And love’s the force that answers
That constant flowing energy
Look for the inner fountain
And get on with life creatively
But you could play it out
You could pray it out, baby
Say it out loud
Bring it out
You could ring it out, baby
Sing it out loud. Chorus
Song for
the Old Ones
ŠLisa Perry,1998
Teach me to dance the dance of healing
Teach me to dance the dance of love
Teach me to dance the dance of spirit
Teach me the dance you dance above
Teach me to dance the dance of eagle
Teach me to dance the dance of whale
Teach me to dance White Phoenix Woman
Let Light and Love and Joy prevail
I honor you my Great Grandfather
I honor you my Mother Earth
I honor you my sweet Grandmother
Teach me the dance of death and birth
Teach me to dance the Four Directions
Teach me to dance the Wind and Sky
Teach me to dance Earth, Air, Fire and Water
Teach me to dance and sing and fly
Black
Horse
ŠLisa Perry,1986
Moon is surely waxing tonight
Shining on the mountain a deep and vibrant light
Moon is surely waxing tonight
I see you there, I can feel you in the light
Oh, in the light
It was the whippoorwill singing
She sang her echoes of love
It was the voice that came ringing
To echo back in the cove
Oh whip-poor-will singing
Beaded princess by a waterfall
Long black hair in the sun
Sing a song that the old ones taught you
And the dance of the spirit’s begun
Eagle flying by an old, wrinkled man
Dark eyes sparkle with the truth
He travels the canyon of the gathering cloud
To the place that he’s known since his youth
He is a speaker of the truth
Those dark eyes, that old man speaks the truth
And he say, Soul is the past, And Soul is the
future
And Soul is the heart of the now
Reaching and yearning, Tossing and turning
And seeking within for the power. Show me the power.
Phoenix rise up from these ashes of gray
So fiery and red-eyed and strong
Lift up your wings at the dawning and soar
Through this canyon your whole life long
Black Horse with your shimmering coat
Stand on that cliff in the wind
Faster than time and stronger than spaces
Show me the visions again
I want to ride the wind
I want to ride the wind
Show me the visions again
Invocations
ŠLisa Perry,1995
Lift up your heart this beautiful morn
Lift up your voice in joyous adornment
Lift up your mind aligning with all
Lift up your soul, respond to the call
Vibrant and lovely this Universe
Matrix of Life, Web of the Birthing
Goddess of Love and Mother of Choice
Eternal Strings respond to the Voice
Lord of us all we bathe in Your Light
Awed by Your beauty, grateful for sight
Beyond all Truth we rise to Your Face
Beyond all joy the Infinite Grace
Bright Son of the pair
Bright Star, Divine Mind
Union to share, each gift to each kind
Radiant and pure, the symbol and cause
All that flows forth, Your Pattern and Laws
