Bernadette Larson Prayer Lyrics

Prayer Lyrics

"Do not stand at my grave and weep



I am not there I do not sleep



I am a thousand winds that flow



I am the sunlight on my own grave







I am a gentle autumn rain



I am the swift uplifting rush



of quiet birds in circled flight







do not stand at my grave and cry



do not stand at my grave and cry



do not stand at my grave and cry



I am not there I did not die







(Spoken)



???…is half grown



Even his flower stem has not appeared yet



He’s all leaves and roots without a sign of stem in sight



Blossoming, establishing a new pure relationship with the cosmos



It is the sign of heaven.



It’s the sign of the cobra.



It’s the sign of a man who knows himself royally.



Crowned with the sun.



His feet gripping the earth as he goes.



We have arrived.







Do not stand at my grave and cry.



Do not stand at my grave and cry.



Do not stand at my grave and cry.



I am not there I did not die.



I am not there I did not die."
