From the recording Heaven on Earth: A Celebration of New Thought
Rev. Dr. Marilyn Hall studied with the family of Don Miguel Ruiz many years ago. Her talk about her experience inspired this song.
Lyrics
“Laying a Path” written for Rev. Dr. Marilyn Hall’s service on 4-2-06 at Shiloh Talk Title: “Clearing a Path"
“I’ll talk about my work with Don Miguel Ruiz and about the (mind/emotion) clearing process and preparing a path for the "Holy Instant"... readying for the freshness of new ideas, insights, revelations; making ourselves available to Spirit's call.” – Rev. Dr. Marilyn Hall
LYRICS
VERSE 1:
I’m clearing a path
I’m clearing a sacred path
For the instant. . . . the holy instant. . .
holy instant 4 x
I’m ready for spring
New ideas, new growth, new insights
I am here for Spirit’s call
CHORUS
I’m here…… for Spirit’s call 3 x
I’m movin’ on step by step
On the path to my good,
as kindly and lovingly
Compassionately as possible
Layin’ my path. . . .
VERSE 2:
I’m laying a path
I’m laying a sacred path
for the moment. . .
this holy moment. . .
holy moment 4x
I’m ready for life
New ideas, new growth, new insights
my beliefs guide me along
CHORUS
I’m here layin’ my path 3 x
I’m movin’ on step by step
On the path to my good,
as kindly and lovingly
Compassionately as possible
Layin’ my path. . . .
