“WAVES OF LOVE”
by Ravi (and Peter Makena)
THERE IS SO MUCH MAGNIFICENCE, NEAR THE OCEAN, WAVES ARE COMING IN
THERE’S A LIGHT ON THE WATER, SONS AND DAUGHTERS, FROM THE PAST AND THE FUTURE
SONGS AND PRAYERS OF OUR ANCESTORS, GRANDMOTHERS AND FATHERSRETURN ON THE WAVE OF THIS SONG
COME TOGETHER IN THE POWER OF SOUND, BROTHERS AND SISTERS
AS THE WALLS OF ILLUSION TUMBLE DOWN
SINGING CIRCLES ON THE WATER, SONS AND DAUGHTERS
WE CREATE…… AS WE WILL IN THIS AGE
SONGS AND PRAYERS FOR THE FUTURE, SEE THE EYES
OF THE NEXT SEVEN GEN-ERATIONS
HOW MANY TIMES HAVE WE BEEN PROVED WRONG
LET THE WAVES OF VOICES WASH OVER YOU IN THIS SONG
A CHANCE TO TRUST IN THIS PRESENT TIME
LET THE WAVES OF LOVE WASH OVER YOU IN THIS LIFE
CH) HALLELUJAH

“DEEP INTO THE NIGHT”
words and music by RAVI (aka JP FREEMAN)
1) we’re walking though the door, this portal of love
I’ve never felt before, such a moment of trust
revealing secret realms and melodies, in your heart
this circle of sound,
when love is on your side, hearts they open wide
2) this room is like a boat, as we glide across waters wide
this love is like the wind in the billowing sails under starry skies
lets steer a course for home and all that we long for
with this circle of light,
when love is at the helm, hearts they start to melt,
CHORUS Letting go, we’re letting go, deep into the night
3) Illuminating flames, as they touch in the dark
reflecting back to you, is simply all that you are
were wrapped inside a blanket so divine
a circle of love
the call becomes so strong, this light will guide us on
4) we drink a cup of all the colours of life
embrace the dark and all the sweetness of the light
we find a door that wasn’t there before
a portal of trust
and lifetimes we have roamed, to find a way back home
BR) Letting go, letting go, deep into the night
and one by one the stars all start to fade
to reveal the light of a brand new day

For each child that's born
a morning star rises and sings
to the universe who we are
For each child that's born
a morning star rises and sings
to the universe who we are
For each child that's born
a morning star rises and sings
to the universe who we are
We are our grandmothers prayers
we are our grandfathers dreamings
we are the breath of the ancestors
we are the spirit of God
We are Mothers of courage
fathers of time
Daughters of dust
sons of great visions
we are sisters of mercy
brothers of love
lovers of life and the builders of nations
We're seekers of truth
and keepers of faith
makers of peace, wisdom of ages
We are our grandmothers prayers
and we are our grandfaters dreamings
we are the breath of the ancesters
we are the spirit of God
We are mothers of courage
fathers of time
we are daughters of dust
and sons of great vision
we are sisters of mercy
brothers of love
we're lovers of life and the builders of nations
we're seekers of truth and keepers of faith
makers of peace and the wisdom of ages
We are our grandmothers prayers
and we are our grandfathers dreamings
we are the breath of our ancestors we are the spirit of God
For each child that's born
a morning star rises and sings
to the universe who we are
For each child that's born
a morning star rises and sings
to the universe who we are
For each child that's born
a morning star rises and sings
to the universe who we are
For each child that's born
a morning star rises and sings
to the universe who we are
We are one

SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS by RAVI (JP FREEMAN)
1) THE PEOPLE I'VE MET, THE PLACES I'VE BEEN
THE SONGS I HAVE SUNG, IN THE TEMPLES AND STREETS
THE NEAREST AND DEAREST, WHOSE LOVE I'VE RECEIVED
KEEPS ME MOVING ON, TO TOUCH , SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS
2) FROM THE OLD SACRED YEW, TO THE FIELDS OF LIGHT
TO THE WELLS AND THE SPRINGS, OF THE PILGRIMAGE SITES
EVERY STEP THAT I TAKE, IS A GIFT OF THIS LIFE
KEEPS ME MOVING ON, TO TOUCH, SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS
3) THE STORIES OF OLD, THE WAIT TO BE TOLD
THE HERBS AND THE PLANTS, OF THIS SACRED LAND
THE WINDING ROAD AND THE OLD STRAIGHT TRACK
THAT IS CALLING US, TO TOUCH, SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS
4) DEATH AND DECAY, BIRTH AND RENUAL
WHERE IS THIS LIFE LEADING US TO
THE SALMON WILL LEAP, TO ITS DESTINY, AND THE LOVE THAT WE HOLD
WILL GUIDE US WHERE WE NEED TO BE
TILL WE TOUCH, SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS

DIVINE MOMENTS by RAVI (JP FREEMAN)
1) I've drunk with Shamen, I've sat with the bhuddas,
from the Amazon to the East
I've sung in temples, of all persuasions,
looking for that sweet release
CH) spiritual warrior , celestial spirit,.
just.... travelling through
witnessing and waiting patiently for these divine moments of truth
2) been on a mission, in strange positions
from the dojo to the beach
been hit with zen sticks, absolved of all sins,
by the head monk and the priest
CH) spiritual warrior, celestial pilgrim,
ready to be called by name
witnessing and waiting patiently ,
for these divine moments of grace
3) oh this heart, is like a radar,
always seeking out the truth
and it might look like, its all so polished,
but I'm only fumbling though
CH) spiritual warrior , celestial spirit, a misfit with a kiss
like a drunkard at the bar in the temple of love ,
cant get enough of these divine moments of bliss
CODA 4) thank you for your reflection,
you are truly a friend to me
