Vision of a new system based on life, brotherhood, freedom and peace. A system that is governed by love and Divine spiritual principles rather than greed and fear.
THE SYSTEM

Do you know that there's a system better than your own?
That gives no headaches, fears or shame and never leaves alone.
Money isn't motive, but choices best for all;
Payment deadlines don't exist or clocks upon the wall.
This system rules with justice; it governs through the soul.
It's citizens in freedom walk; a careful step their goal.
To never hurt or take away from any living thing;
Gives this system total power to guide, protect and bring,
The kind of world we dream to live, a perfect life in peace;
All freedom, joy and brotherhood; all war and hunger cease.
Do you know that there's a truth that's perfect, pure and good?
That you can rest in, just let go; love God the way you should?
Do you know that you can choose to live a perfect life?
To bring a system in this world whose truth can end all strife?
Do you know that you can change all systems that exist?
When you let love control your life; the truth no more resist.
I know it seems too easy, but do you know God's might?
It's been your choice in past to let the devil fight you fight.
You've given him the power to control with pain:
To put a price on all that's free; the greedy to get gain.
You've put yourselves before all else in ways you cannot see:
It's all selfish motives that will not let life be.
You can topple Babylon with you own pure heart;
Surrender pride and look inside; is where you need to start.
No more to pick and choose a truth that vainly suits your mood;
But pure and honestly to search decisions that are good.
Do you know from manmade pain we all want to be free?
If a love swells in your heart to hope for such a day;
Then my friend old ways you'll mend and we will find the way.
Matt. 10:8 Freely you have received, freely give.

Thank you for watching. Peace
Thank you Dee - you did a beautiful job with those images. Very moving and inspiring. The recording sounds so old now (2001 on ancient equipment by today's standard!), but I still love these songs more than anything I've recorded before and after. There was real magic there. You have such a talent for capturing spirituality and for presenting even a suggestion, a hint, at a better place for us all. I always feel better after listening to your words, or seeing your images. simple as. xoxox
