Name: My King
Duration: P00H04M32S
Description: This song has a medieval, early music feel, opening with a dulcimer motif. The verse leads to lush counterpoint harmonies in the chorus. The droning 2nd verse builds to a final violin and dulcimer and choral climax. The lyrics are about aligning with your Highest Self - it is the sacred marriage of you to your Higher Power.

lyrics

VERSE 1:
When first I beheld my King
My soul grasped the full meaning
I was so overcome with fear
Yet yearned to feel him near

CHORUS 1:
And so I choose My place on the throne
In the highest kingdom That is my home
My heart Is open wide
No longer willing to hide This love inside

(LITHUANIAN BACKUPS:)
{Mano karalius, Mano aukštybė
{Štai aš priimsiu Savo šviesybę,
{Ir prisiminsiu Sielos karalystę,
{Ir čia gyvensiu Aukščiausioj tėvynėj

BACKUPS TRANSLATION:
[My King, My Highness
[Now I will accept My own Light
[And I will remember The kingdom of my Soul
[And I will live here In the Highest Homeland

VERSE 2:
What gifts have I to bring?
The purest light within
The mysteries of all ages past
Lie here within my grasp

CHORUS 2: And so I choose...
