Great Spirits
[Chanting]
[Verse 1]
When the Earth was young
And the air was sweet
And the mountains kissed the sky
In the far beyond, with its many paths
Man and nature lived side by side
The great wisdom does not come without learning
And great vision not wholly with our eyes
We can think that we see
Truly see all around us
But when we look
Do we see with open minds?
[Chorus]
Great Spirits of all who lived before
Take our hands and lead us
Fill our hearts and souls with all you know
The key to understanding
Is to see through other's eyes
Find a way to help us
See from all sides
Truly see from all sides
[Verse 2]
Teach our children to look deeper than the surface
See the world through another's eyes
For to be blind beyond yourself
Is to look but not see it
Knowing much is not enough to be wise
To see the wonder
In all we've been given
In a world that's not always as it seems
On the path that we choose
Turn every corner
Follow on for another begins
[Chorus]
Great Spirits of all who lived before
(Take our hands)
Take our hands and lead us
(Fill our hearts)
Fill our hearts and souls
With all you know
(You know the key)
The key to understanding
Is to see through other's eyes
Find a way to help us
See from all sides
Truly see from all sides
[Chanting]
[Chorus]
Great Spirits of all who lived before
(Take our hands)
Take our hands and lead us
(Fill our hearts)
Fill our hearts and souls
With all you know
(You know the key)
The key to understanding
Is to see through other's eyes
Find a way to help us
See from all sides
Truly see from all sides
See from all sides!
