I'm powered by nature
Weak, but strong I stand...
before the force of elements
of this wild and wondrous land...
I'm powered by nature
the mystery it hides
The rain and sun encircles
the synthesis of life...
I'm powered by the miracle
of a newborn, budding rose...
to see the spring abloom
and everything that grows.
I'm powered by the forest
walking in the green...
where I can smell the earth
and drink the water, clean...
I'm powered by rivers,
running wild, running free...
from the highest mountain
down to the deep, blue sea...
I'm powered by the ocean
that calls my yearning heart...
to reach for the horizon
far beyond the far...
I'm powered by snow
that covers all in white...
that lets the summer sleep
and slumber through the night
I'm powered by darkness
in the long winter nights...
when I see a glimpse
of the flaring Northern lights...
I'm powered by stars
on the endless sky...
lightyears from the earth
but closer when I fly...
But even if I soar
in poems and songs....
I must always return
to where my heart belongs....
I'm powered by moonlight
the eternal ebb and flow...
The rhythm of the nature
running through my blood...
I'm powered by the seasons
winter, spring, summer and fall...
the ever-changing colours
and the beauty of them all...
I'm powered by sun
shining down on me...
I'm like a flower
absorbing energy
I'm powered by wind
blowing through my hair...
I'm breathing life -
breathing clean, fresh air ...
I'm powered by mountains,
that let me feel so small...
so I can seize the wonder
and the greatness of it all...
I know I'm not alone
here on planet Earth
I know I'm a part...
of God's great universe!
I know I'm a part
of God's great universe!
