Grow straight like the tall mast pines
Use our bones, our brains, our wills
to walk confidently, boldly
to do His will, not follow the tide, the crowd
like a jellyfish, caught in Luna’s grasp
flowing with the water
Use our abilities
to do right
watch our neighbors the plants,
creatures of our world
see their lessons,
lessons for us
how to live,
more simply,
in harmony
following the commands
of the creator
Use our bones, our brains, our wills
to walk confidently, boldly
to do His will, not follow the tide, the crowd
like a jellyfish, caught in Luna’s grasp
flowing with the water
Use our abilities
to do right
watch our neighbors the plants,
creatures of our world
see their lessons,
lessons for us
how to live,
more simply,
in harmony
following the commands
of the creator
