Universal Mother

(album: Open Hearts Open Minds - 2021)

Into the arms of my Universal Mother
I lay my head down on her sweet breast
There I am held like I've never been a stranger
Succoured and warmed
I am reborn
I am reborn

Struck by the hand of my Universal Mother
There is no harm
No, it's just the might of her arm
There I am taught all of life's lessons
In this instruction
I am reborn
I am reborn

There she comforts me in a photograph by the Christmas tree
There she runs to me when broken glass cuts my knee
There There There

The beat of the heart of my Universal Mother
The rhythm is warm just like her embrace
And in her eyes I can never be a failure
Blood of her blood
Flesh of her flesh

There she's fixing me through a polo neck when I just can't see
There she gives me gee when the playground boys have bullied me

There there there
