about
This track was written out at Mutawinji National Park, between Broken Hill & Tibooburra (far west NSW). Such a stunningly beautiful, vast & vivid landscape; a great place to open up and find healing.
lyrics
HEALING
This August wind plays its music in the treetops,
breathing refreshment, making the leaves dance & sway,
may it catch up the shattered pieces you bear,
whisper a hint of a song,
cooling, soothing, repairing the discord…
This ancient ridge glows red in the sunlight,
massive with age, speaking its wisdom in stillness,
May it slow the frantic chaos of your thoughts,
promise time’s healing,
warming, waiting, strong enough to hold you.
I’ve watched you walk such a long and lonely road,
bearing your wounds, such a burden of brokenness…
May the vast blue speak its peace to you,
may the land bear your burden,
may these blossoms light your way,
and wait with you for the Healer to come…
He will come to you…
