NEW WORLD NOW
We
are in a new world now
We
never can go back
Our
eyes have seen a thousand years
Our
mind has bridged the gap
And
here we stand, we hear the cry,
Creation
surging on
Our
hearts beat wildly and sigh
No
thing to lean upon
We
are in a new world now
The
light still blinds our eyes
We
weep and soar and shout aloud
And
dance between two pyres
Like
clowns who merge with time and space
Who
run and jump and fall
We
beckon to the endless race
We
play the fool for all
We
are in a new world now
No
longer is it hidden
We struggle to create the edge
Our total passion given
We
are born to build the earth
Our
lives consumed with praise
Gazing
straight with open eyes
The Phoenix does arise.

You and I are living in a moment in which a brand new world — that we didn’t ask for and we don’t know how to manipulate is emerging. And the question of the deeps of humanity today is how can I mix the stuff of my
being, how can I mix who I am — significantly — with this new world? What must I do?
