The flow of life has brought us our fathers and mothers.
The flow of life has brought us our sisters and brothers.
We have evolved from a much larger body.
We are the ancient flow of life.

Our ancestors gave us traditions to remember.
Telling their stories about who we are.
Stories of meaning we'll pass to our children.
Taking us on through the great flow of life.

The mountains remember their stories eternal.
They hold in their bodies a wisdom of age.
Deep in my soul I can hear what they're saying.
We are one body in a spiritual way.

God has been with us down through the ages.
From fathers and mothers, to daughters and sons.
Whenever you honor a father or mother,
remember you honor the great flow of life
