Lyrics

If I think there’s just one way to be righteous and to pray
It’s time to walk in other shoes, time to take a broader view
My Buddhist friends show me how to be present in the Now
Ring the meditation bell; May all beings be well
Jews greet the Sabbath bride, dropping into sacred time
A break from life on the run, listening to the Holy One
Around the world Muslims pray five times every day
Everyone equal, on their knees, bowing in humility
Chorus:
Many paths, one Source
God is too big for any one religion!
Love is the greatest force
God is too big for any one religion!
The Tao teaches us: Be true, be an authentic you
Live with simplicity; don’t fight reality
Hindus chant the holy names, kindling the love flame
Yoga’s not just for my health, it takes me to my higher self
Chorus
Do you connect with Spirit in a child’s face?
Do Beauty and Joy bring you to a holy place?
It really doesn’t matter the words we use for grace
Jesus healed the sick and poor, he opened up so many doors
He taught that love is the way to solve the problems of the day
Chorus
