You've made us laugh, you've made us cry, but mostly made us smile. It doesn't seem so long ago that you were just a child. Words: PENNY DAVIES, Music: ROGER ILOTT Copyright 2007 Restless Music APRA/AMCOS I loved our ship, I loved the sea, but now our trip was done,Īnd as Aurelia sailed away … a new life had begun. The scent of eucalyptus, blue smoke seen from afar, Next the Indian Ocean – old salts now on the foamĬrossing the equator, Christmas far from home.Ħ weeks at sea, long days of sun and nights of alien stars, Suez and then Aden – a long way to go yet. I'd never seen a sea so blue, or any foreign shore.Ī brilliant Port Said sunset, a palm tree silhouette, Standing by the rail all day, I drank in what I saw. Watched the washing drying in the Mediterranean breeze, We travelled ever southwards & we came to calmer seas, Sailing to Australia - halfway across the world.

Yogis perceive God’s response in glorious, even spectacular ways striving devotees are blessed with divine thoughts and aspirations, God’s loving, silent voice encouraging and coaxing them forward to His waiting presence. Indeed, how compassionately indulgent and impartial the Lord is that He so readily recognizes not only the mighty ecstasy of lordly yogis, but also the “widow’s mite” of those who can give little to Him, but do give all they have. True devotees devoutly offer to Him the living leaves of their proliferating spiritual understanding and perceptions, the choicest blossoms of love from the secret garden of their hearts, the fruits of their selfless actions, and the sanctifying sacred waters of intuitive inner divine communion gathered reverently from the river of meditation. Man’s most fleeting thought and most trifling actions may be used as stepping-stones toward His presence. Therefore I accept happily even a little flower, tear-sprinkled and devotionally fragrant, from those who have little time for Me, though I give My time and gifts to them….” God says: “Great yogis are rare, so I seldom receive from earth dwellers the most precious gift - complete soul surrender to Me. The outpouring of heartfelt love is the only “sacrifice“ the Lord desires from His creatures. The Choicest Blossoms of Love from the Secret Garden of Your Heart “The reverent presentation to Me of a leaf, a flower, a fruit, or water, given with pure intention, is a devotional offering acceptable in My sight.” - Bhagavad Gita In secret in my soul, I will gather blossoms for Thee,ĭipping them in devotion, I will lay them at Thy feet. Listen to my soul song, listen to my heart song.
