Russell and Kaye Hayes were assigned to work around the northern part of Australia- around Darwin and to some of the Aboriginal Mission stations- Russell used to wear sandals that he had made out of used tyres. When Russell was living in the Sydney House, he composed both the Contemplation song- ' Come walk with Francis' and the Being song. The music would be blaring out loudly most of the day while he wrote his poetry. Russell always wore a very simple grey 'safari suit' . He had made it himself. He wore his dark, wavy hair shoulder length. When he was assigned to the children's structures, the children always did interesting and different activities- e.g..,climbing trees.

Yet as I look within No man has greater sin. I am the least of all I daily fall. But it's then when I Doubt that I can I choose to be nothing For man. To die is my lot I live as if not With Paul I merge with all. I see then as Never before The secrets of heaven my store. With wisdom twice my age My life an open page Though with each insight Gain a deeper pain. Yet I live with the Lord on my side And wild intuition My guide. I'm sent as a sign The bread and the wine My form And virgin born. Then I act seeing Action is vain And accomplishments Never as gain. To only do is less Than forming humanness So mission I must be To set men free. Called to burn as an Undying flame Each word and each Gesture the Name. I must through life-loss An exalted cross My place Reveal his face Then the Lord through My life prays a prayer And my being is Filled being there. I can invent anew what All the saints once knew By being who I am I create man. And it's no longer I who is seen But the Lord standing There in between. Finished as I die Held there between Sky and sod To save our God. Yes, it's there on the limbs of the worm eaten tree where the All and the Nothing can BE. j'aime la vie Yesterday, appreciate; tomorrow, anticipate; today, participate. In all, Celebrate! -----Original Message----- From: jonzondo <jonzondo@juno.com> To: oe <oe@lists.wedgeblade.net> Sent: Sat, Jul 27, 2013 10:09 am Subject: [Oe List ...] lyrics for the song "Being" hello community, A last minute request...
