The Shock of God (Remastered)

V6

[intro 0:00- 0:25] [melodic hook] [oboe, choral and female vocalizing ahhhhhhhh] [rich male voice] [choral] The Shock of God I felt it when I saw the Master’s Hands in his lap Way back then Exquisite divinity A profound shock Running through my being. [rich male voice] [choral] Then I saw his feet dangling Lifeless it seemed From the palanquin carrying him. But as the honored bearer’s Put him down, [rich deep clear male voice] And his feet touched the ground They came right back to life And he walked up the stairs I was stunned by that inexplicable sight [rich male voice] [choral] And there was 1986 What a profound time! He was sitting for all to see Him in his mysterious Samadhi As delicate as a butterfly, and Vulnerable like a newborn baby Terror for his sake was rising inside of me [rich male voice] [choral] Precious memories Treasures of this life And my distant past How can they last Through the churning vast? [rich male voice] [choral] Treasured Gifts from the Master “The Face of Splendor” The Being of Living Light [rich male voice] [choral] Profound Samadhis were Given to me Ego ruination and transformation In the Living Light Much like our coming end As we shed our mortal skin To the cosmic wind [rich male voice] [choral] So much was Given Who was it all for? And there was so much more My mind like laden water pours [rich male voice] [choral] Deep beauteous blessings Wished along my path Walking back from The temple on the hill Love magnified and instilled. [rich male voice] [choral] Great Swan Peace Cathedral Called in by the Light A vision of Glory bright I could not resist The years of hard work That my hands were Blessed To do and still continue [rich male voice] Like a flower offering to the Light From which it came. But all the same A burden of Living Light Is my life’s mysterious plight [rich male voice] [choral] [female vocalizing ahhhh] How to pass it along Before my life is completely gone In boundless joy, Like my every song [rich male voice] I will spread my stories Like Dandelion seeds That blow on the breeze To find fertility On this half made land A mind made realm With only Light at it’s helm. [rich male voice] [choral] A ship of shifting sand Where Divine Love Is washing darkness out So It can take hold To undo the wrongs old Turning the Waking pressure up We are brought to our knees To pray away the darkness And embrace the Dawning Light [intro last 25 seconds] [melodic hook] [rising choral and female voice ahhhhhhhh]
