We ask of you now What skill do you possess? For in the new world Only giving is progress
We ask only for life And not self-interest What will be left behind Will no longer exist
I am of passage By air, land or sea I follow Cassiopeia and Orion For light from dark is how I see
A mariner by trade Yes you may come aboard And by your guidance We will find our reward
I am of construct By hammer, saw and nail Will you know of comfort Without my talents to avail?
A carpenter by trade Yes you may come aboard And by your shelter We will find our reward
I am of nourishment I will reach into the sea By hook, line and sinker This you will be taught by me
A fisherman by trade Yes you may come aboard And by your daily bread We will find our reward
I am of creation I bring brush, voice and fifths By color, words and melody You will know of your gifts
An artist by trade Yes you may come aboard And by your imagination We will find our reward
I am of healing And a facilitator of birth I will reach into my bag And life I will bring forth
A doctor by trade Yes you may come aboard And by your oath We will find our reward
I am of spirituality And you will know of no darkness For the spirit that flows inside Will remind you of God’s promise
A shaman by trade Yes you may come aboard And through your prayers We will find our reward
But by who's hand will we be guided? Though it was I who rang the bell of freedom I shall remain behind while you decide For no King of the flesh lives in Eden
And with no lawyers to confuse Or politicians that lie The dreamer will wave farewell But his vision will never die
