Bring Him Home (from Les Misérables) - ThePianoGuys

heart's sounding strings

soulful be the plea

HOME

Honor to the Omnipresent the Manifest Eternal

Bring Him Home.

...so deeply touched by this sounding of vision and heart... 
Life's work... for SELF to be HOME - in the PRESENCE... 
SELF BE known... in JOYFUL PRAISE


God on high
Hear my prayer
In my need
You have always been there

He is young
He's afraid
Let him rest
Heaven blessed.
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home.

He's like the son I might have known
If God had granted me a son.
The summers die
One by one
How soon they fly
On and on
And I am old
And will be gone.

Bring him peace
Bring him joy
He is young
He is only a boy

You can take
You can give
Let him be
Let him live
If I die, let me die
Let him live
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home.

And so...As I work with the sons and daughters of others,
my ever present vision IS - Inspired Spirit -
that loving flame within each heart that aspires to BE.
2013 has brought a deeply renewed purpose to this
gift of LIFE ~ Love ~ Inspiration ~ Freedom ~ Eternal...

Within These Walls

Within these walls the waling labor and the promise of a new day
Upon these floors the heavy burdens and the knowing of The Way
Within these chambers of heart and home reverie and reflection
The searching wave of wonder and awe crests with God's perfection
No promise or lament need be silenced or denied its haunting call
Within moments Now the pulsing passion of Presence, The All
The rooms of this home bear sounds and visions of day's gone by
Beauty held in music, art, the gifts of man, child, earth, sea and sky
The noonday sun touches this day with warming light
From each window I look to sky, trees and leaves in wind's flight
This deep captivating call of heart and home in silence I do ever hear
I know of God, this moment, and faith in a tomorrow of banished fear.

The rock and roll of the 80's played by my young sons, the barking of our much loved family dog, the bubbling of fish tanks, the cooing of the finches, the care of pigeons, quails, hamsters, snakes, doves, rabbits, turtles, gerbils, white mice, hamsters, the many happy birthdays sung, sounding memories yet heard... These be the savored echoes held by the walls... each room its own artful collection of times long past and the shared JOYS of time present. And now my grandchildren add new treasures, gems of time, dreams yet to be dreamed, and love shared anew. Yes, all Within These Walls...

The rooms of this home bear sounds and visions of day's gone by

Heart and Home

Within these walls the waling labor and the promise of a new day
Upon these floors the heavy burdens and the knowing of The Way
Within these chambers of heart and home reverie and reflection
The searching wave of wonder and awe crests with God's perfection
No promise or lament need be silenced or denied its haunting call
Within moments Now the pulsing passion of Presence, The All
The rooms of this home bear sounds and visions of day's gone by
Beauty held in music, art, the gifts of man, child, earth, sea and sky
The noonday sun touches this winter day with warming light
From each window I look to sky, trees and leaves in wind's flight
This deep captivating call of heart and home in silence I do ever hear
I know of God, this moment, and faith in a tomorrow of banished fear.
