    Desert Mothers


    Song Lyrics 

    Desert Mothers


    Desert Mothers Solitary

    Whose ship's hold's too full for sailing?


    Stillness, Silence, Good works hidden

    Paths converge as true hearts chime


    Narrow gates admit these Mothers

    No advice from Monks are needed


    Pass no judgment, Ill-thoughts banished

    Hum-ble be alone can save


    Last breaths free

    Freedom be

    Near to thee, Near to thee


    Storms prepare the trees to bear fruit


    Stillness, Silence, Good works hidden

    Paths converge as true hearts chime


    Last breaths free

    Freedom be

    Near to thee, Near to thee
