When I take my last breath,
All the moments of this life shall seem,
As nothing more then the death,
Of a long, yet fleeting dream.
For dreams, they drift away,
As the mind awakens…fade to dust.
Lost in the eternal fray,
They perish, as all dreams must…
So we can greet the day.

Why are you screaming little one, little one?
Why are you hiding in the dark? Come. Come.
He can not hurt you…not anymore, not anymore.
The world left you for dead,
But God opened a door.
Why are you crying little one, little one?
Why are you huddled in the dark? Come. Come.
Time has passed by and the sun has arose…has arose.
The world left you for dead,
Yet the Light only grows!
Why are you frozen little one, little one?
Why are you standing in the dark? Come. Come.
Close your eyes, take a step, look and then see…look and see,
The world left you for dead,
Though you live eternally!

Nobody can help you.
Not her, not him, not me.
There is no one upon the earth,
Who can be there for you, fully.
Humans are mere mortals,
So don’t expect too much.
This life is simply a pathway,
To the next existence, as such.
No one has the answers,
Or can promise to stay.
For no one is given the choice,
To keep time from running astray.
Only God has answers,
And only He is there,
When everyone else goes away,
Only He will still see you, and care.
So sit with Him awhile,
And talk to Him of doubt.
Come to know that all will be well,
Within your spirit, and without.
Only God can help you.
Not her, not him, not me.
God is there…watching and waiting,
At the door of eternity.

I long for the fields of A’aru.
The sun-soaked reeds of gold
The ageless mirth of eternity,
Where there’s no young or old.
Where the hallowed sun forever shines,
Its light everlasting.
I run toward distant outstretched arms,
As my soul brightly sings,
And my whole being rejoices and cries:
“Where you go. I will come.
I am home. I am finally home,
In the arms of Atum”.

O’ Children of Light, take heed!
The darkness seeks to consume you,
With smiles of self-satisfaction it breeds,
And plants the seeds,
Of its own destruction.
O’ Children of Light, beware!
Bodies are made of heavy earth,
Which drags all men down and into despair;
So be aware,
You are not of the Earth!
O’ Children of Light, watch out!
You are light destined for the stars.
So, in darkness, do not stumble about.
You should not doubt,
Your divine radiance!
O’ Children of Light, Hear! Hear!
Those who pursue your destruction,
Act from carnal bewilderment and fear.
Lo’, Death’s not here!
Seek the Light! Seek the Light!
O’ Children of Light, stand strong!
When in darkness, shine brighter still.
The war between Light and darkness is long.
Shine strong! Shine strong!
For in time Light will win,…
Yes, in the end,…in the end,…
Light will win!
