Focus
For those unfamiliar with this song, in about
1979, Mahatma Guru Charnanand, who everyone
considered to be the closest person to M outside
his family, recorded English language versions
of various Indian devotional songs on a cassette
named 'You are my Everything'. Also on this
album were other devotional songs from the group
'One Foundation'. In my opinion this song was
one the best devotional songs recorded. The
instrumental version of this song was released
on a mid-nineties album.
It was also quite clear that this was done with
Maharaji's blessing.

Golden
Way
This song was a famous one in the 70s, and
it's still sung to him today in the 90s during
programs with Maharaji.
You call to us, Oh Lord
Like the flower calls to the bee.
And we rush to You, Oh Lord,
Like the rivers rush to the sea.
Chorus.
And though we'll try every day
To walk Your golden Way
Only by Your Grace,
By Your Mercy, can we approach You.
You're the only one, dear Master,
You're the one that we need.
Draw the veil away, true lover,
Plant Your Holy seed.
Chorus.
Wake us from our dream, Oh Father,
Show us why we're alive.
Hear us breathe Your Name, Oh Father,
Let us come back Inside.
Chorus.
Your love Is all, Maharaj Ji,
We've only sorrows to give.
But now we weep for joy, Maharaj Ji,
And You're the reason we live.
Chorus.
When we see You smile, Maharaj Ji,
Confusion's so far away.
Let us sing Your praise forever,
And make You smile every day.
Chorus.
Soon the world will know, Oh Lord,
That there's no reason to room
May we serve You well, Oh Lord,
To call Your lost children home.
Chorus.
You call to us, Oh Lord,
Like the flower calls to the bee.
And we rush to You, Oh Lord,
Like the rivers rush to the sea.
Chorus.
Guru
is the Father of All
This is not the time for sleeping
Open up your eyes.
And this is not the time for weeping.
People recognize
The Lord has come, He has come
To open up your eye
He has come, He has come
Spread His Light across the sky
Chorus.
Guru is The Father of all
The Creator of love
The Lord of the Universe.
Guru is the Light in us all
He will come when you call
If you open your heart .
We were in the age of water
Now the age of air.
People don't expect the Lord
In robes and flowing hair,
He will come when and how he pleases,
Don't expect a thing.
He'll be known by His Word,
Now hear His children sing.
Chorus.
Born Into a world of wonder
Morning, noon, and night,
But the day that I was born again
I swear I saw His Light, and
It was one for us all,
For we all come from the one
He has given eyes to see
Now He's given one to me.
Chorus.
Guru
Maharaj Ji You are so big
Verse 1.
Guru Maharaj Ji You are so big
And I am so small.
But when You shine, You shine for all,
Yes You shine for all, My Lord.
Like a flower born in the spring of the year
I always want to be very near to You.
Verse 2.
Guru Maharaj Ji You are the light
That brings true love to the earth.
You have shown me such beauty inside
Thank you Lord, thank you Lord, thank you
Lord.
Like a flower born in the spring of the year
I always want to be very near to You.
Verse 3.
Guru Maharaj Ji You are my all, yes
You are my all, my Lord.
Though the sun may fall, and the moon may
die
I will always love you forever.
Though the sun may fall, and the moon may
die
I will always love you forever.
King
of Kings
Verse 1.
We've been wandering through these crazy
times
Looking for some peace of mind
Searching for a love that will never die
But the faith we put in selfish feelings
Always left us not believing
Living our existence as a lie.
Chorus.
But then the King of Kings
Has held out His hand
And is leading His children from every darkened
land
To the universal light inside
And the Truth that we're all brothers and
sisters
In the Holy Word of Light.
Verse 2.
If you took all the wealth of ages,
All the knowledge from all the pages,
And brought them like a mountain to His
feet,
The Love of Maharaj Ji
Would dim the brightest diamond
And make the sweetest poem seem incomplete.
Chorus.
Verse 3. Instrumental
Chorus. ( 3 times )
Lila
Verse 1.
He is our own Satguru
And we should love Him
He is brighter than a thousand seas
Shining in the sun
He is pure and fresh
As the early morning dew
He is lila
And His game has just begun.
Verse 2.
I wish I was a little bird
Flying high in every tree
But then how would I see
Guru Maharaj Ji
He is lila, lila
And His game has just begun.
Verse 3.
I wish I was a little stream
Flowing down to the sea
But then how would I see
Guru Maharaj Ji
He is lila, lila
And His game has just begun.
Verse 4.
For we are all little streams
Flowin down to His ocean
And all He asks from us
Is love and pure devotion
He is lila, lila
And His game has just begun.
Little
tears of
happiness

Falling from your face
Little smiles of sunshine,
It's Guru Maharaj Ji's Grace.
Don't you know?
He's the Savior come
Don't you know?
He's the Perfect One
Guru Maharaj Ji,
Guru Maharaj Ji's the One, One.
Just take His hand
Be at His command
And you'll find Peace of mind
At His Lotus Feet.
Don't you know?
He's the Savior come
Don't you know?
He's the Perfect One
Guru Maharaj Ji,
Guru Maharaj Ji's the One, One.
Let Him take your hand
To the promised land
Where we are free
And smiling's the only
Way to be, with
Little tears of happiness
Falling from your face
Little smiles of sunshine
It's Guru Maharaj Ji,
Guru Maharaj Ji's Grace, Grace.
Oh
Lord we've been waiting so
long
Chorus
Oh Lord we've been waiting so long

We thought You'd never come.
Chorus
Oh Lord we've been waiting so long
Oh Lord we've been waiting so long
Oh Lord we've been waiting so long
We thought You'd never come.
But You have
The middle of the summer of seventy one
Few of us knew that the Lord had really
come,
But The Truth can't remain a secret for too
long
Cause He's gonna turn the whole world on, very
quickly,
He's gonna turn the whole world on .
CHORUS
Ants aren't 7 inches tall,
And elephants are never known to be 2 inches
small,
But, you know, all through this day and all
through this night
There's such a light inside us all, keepin us
alive,
A light inside us all.
CHORUS
Who is as old as the age of the sun
And who will be young when the sun cycles
run?
Only this Perfectly Realized One
And He's gonna turn the whole world on, with His
Love
Yes, He's gonna turn the whole world on, we've
gotta help Him
CHORUS
Material things must all pass away
The same way that night always follows the
day;
You'll always have such a price to pay
If you put your trust in these things .
Oh, don't you put your trust in these
things.
CHORUS

All things must surely pass.
You soul inside it will always last.
We could never describe
The secret that is keeping you alive.
The kingdom of heaven is within.
We say that just because we have seen it.
Though all your friends might turn away,
Troubles surround you everyday,
Don't you worry, don't you cry.
There is peace lying right between your
eyes.
Yes there is. Yes there is. Yes there is.
Right between your eyes.

Hidden deep within
Brighter than a million suns.
How can I begin
To thank you,
To thank you,
To thank you, my Lord.
