Sacred oak tree standing tall
What have you to say
I will listen with my heart
Speak to me this day.

Teach me of your strength and courage
To stand proud and tall
But to humbly give completely
Teach me most of all.

I came to you when I was weak
These were the words I prayed
You took me in your warm embrace
There to always stay

My heart did yearn, so I returned
To find that you were gone
But in my heart I heard you whisper
"You must carry on"

"I give to you my life", you said...
"The strength and courage too
The lessons of complete surrender
These I give to you."

"Take them now, for I am with you
There's work that must be done
In the healing of our mother
You and I are one"

"In the healing of our mother... You and I are one."
