Why are you so afraid of dying
Dear beloved, little one?
Do you not know that you’ll comehomewards
Back to us, where you belong?
Do you not know that we are waiting
Here, to welcome you back home?
With much joy and celebration
To be united with the one?
Are you afraid of retribution
For some things you may have done?
Worry not my dear beloved
Love is where we all come from.
Are you afraid that you will vanish
Dissolved into eternity?
The real you can never vanish
It lives in you, it lives in me.
Surrender all that you have strived for
Let go all your fear and pain
Hold not on toacquisitions
Hold not on to worldly chains.
Let your spirit free to fly now
Towards the truth, towards the light.
We, who love you, are rejoicing
As your mortal soul takes flight.
We will welcome you back home now
Shed your bonds and become free
Return to join us in the dance here
The dance that is eternity.
So, rest in peace now my beloved
Rest easy as you breathe your last
Love will come to take you homewards
Peace you will find that’s unsurpassed.
