Releasing the Unchained Link of Light

Releasing The Unchained Link of Light


By love we are bound as Brothers and Sisters 
To the accord

And though we live in very different worlds
We are a unique division by our unity
Our own awareness as complete individuals
Our Separation by lives lived differently

And how we see experience forms our expressions  
And defines our connections to what we perceive as real 
But in all our intricate and definitive conclusions
There is only one truth residing in the spiritual

We formulate our faith to our own answers 
By an original comprehension of the light in our hearts
Yet we know that in this chalice of eternally divine waters
Is where every mans path and every woman’s journey departs

And although it may seem we do not know us
And although we may wander miles between and  from where we are
Still by soul we are united in this sense of the timeless
Joined by the light of loves single morning star

Of no consequence is the language 
And description defies the essence of compassion in another’s eyes
No written word can explain the instinct in the knowledge
Of how we distinguish our truth; from our lies
  
And to all the questions and answers there is only one reply
And though we feel so very separate the very same pattern links us all
A human tongue speaking with one voice which cannot deny
The holy, the universal, the divine, the word eternal;
Is “Love”

Standing in the light we are so often blinded
And led astray by the shadows that we cast
Our innocence and ignorance by our judgement is reminded
That we were not the first and none of us will be the last

Standing in the light there are so many colours
The light has so many shades and so many different hues
A radiance with which it draws us closer as sisters and brothers
To the single source of all our truths

By love we are bound as Brothers and Sisters 
To this accord 

And how many of us wish that we could hold what our hearts demand
To exult in our souls the reverberating depths of a united consensus
To release the unchained link in our hand 
To release the unchained link in our hand
Release the unchained link
The unchained link
Unchained link

In our hand

Standing in the light there are so many colours
The light has so many shades and so many different hues
A radiance with which it draws us closer as Sisters and Brothers
To the single source of all our truths
