THE LOVE WITHIN

​

Lord give me grace and dancing feet

As I conquer all anxiety

The angel told me not to fear

That the power to was in me

For I have learnt the way to pray

Like a muscle growing taut now

Bind the past into a knot

And let the love consume us

Let the love consume us

Let the love consume us

 

Can you hear the stars now sing?

Resounding in D Major

As the god vibration resonates

And pulls us up towards her

Take your shoes off, feel the earth

Beneath your feet respond to touch

And let our laughter now ring forth

As the love consumes us

 

The love within is moving upwards

Sweeter than any drug

The melody is taking over

Guide my heart through this hurt

Pull back the veil, let your eyes meet this world

The love within is moving upwards

So don't you want to get high?

Don't you want to get high?

 

Don't you want to get high?

Don't you want to get

Don't you want to get high?

 

The love within is moving upwards

Sweeter than any drug

The melody is taking over

Guide my heart through this hurt

Pull back the veil, let your eyes meet this world

The love within is moving upwards

So don't you want to get high?

Don't you want to get high?
