From the recording The Seed
And the seed holds the blossom, holds the flower, holds the fruit.
Based on the V'Ahavta prayer.
Lyrics
And the seed dreams the blossom, and the blossom breathes the flower
And the blossom breathes the flower, and the flower grows the fruit
And the flower grows the fruit, and the fruit holds the seed
And the seed holds the blossom, holds the flower, holds the fruit.
And you shall love your God Eternal
With your heart, your strength, your soul
And these words which I command you
Shall heal and make you whole.
And you shall dream them, you shall breathe them
When you rise and when you rest
And you shall teach them to your children
With these words they shall be blessed.
And you shall bind them for a sign
Upon your brow, upon your arm
And they will comfort and protect you
They will shield you from harm.
And you shall write them on your gates
And on the doorposts of your home
And they will guide you when you travel
You will never be alone.
And you shall listen and remember,
You shall speak and you shall know
God the Source and Destination
God from Whom all blessings flow.
And Eternal is your God
Who was, Who is, Who will become
And Eternal is God’s presence
… God is One.
And the song of God’s creation
Welcomed you when you were born
Out of silence, out of dreaming
Out of spirit you took form.
You are earth and air and water
You are light and life and fire
You are poetry and music
You are the song of God’s desire.
And the seed dreams the blossom, and the blossom breathes the flower
And the blossom breathes the flower, and the flower grows the fruit
And the flower grows the fruit, and the fruit holds the seed
And the seed holds the blossom, holds the flower, holds the fruit.
