A Song Called Integral

A Song Called Integral, by Andy Kennaly:

Help me wake up, help me clean up, help me grow up, in Christ.

Help me wake up, help me clean up, help me grow up, in Christ.

I pray for desire to desire you, for awareness of Presence in me.

Open my eyes to see you in all, Godliness wrapped in all things.

Dissolve the lines I create for myself; boundaries don’t really exist.

Unity and Oneness is what I seek, my True Self in you found through love.

 

God before, God beyond, God outside time and space, yet as close as each breath that I take. 

Your gifts of life shared freely, received. 

Awaken my heart to perceive.

 

Help me wake up, help me clean up, help me grow up, in Christ, this I pray.

Though the journey is rough, your burden, its light. 

Illumine my heart more each day.

In silence I find a peace so sincere, a gift with the Spirit at core. 

All thoughts pass away, so together we pray as love, union, joy mingle free.

Inner demons awake, and my anger is peaked; no more shall I repress my pain.  Acknowledged and felt, experienced and true, honest life is redeemed through you.

Help me wake up, help me clean up, help me grow up, in Christ.

Help me wake up, help me clean up, help me grow up, in Christ.

 

Replace my false self with truth that remains, grounded in Being and Source. 

Show me the Way of Wisdom and Life, which knows no cultural bounds. 

Eternal and fresh as each morning’s dew, held loosely like words of a song.

Illumine my heart, renewing my mind, translucent with light, goodness, peace.

Help me wake up, help me clean up, help me grow up, in Christ.
