Love is letting go of fear

May 18, 2010

The title of this entry is a quote (Gerald Jamposki) from the book Stand Like Mountain Flow Like Water. As I look back on my life, fear has been my roadblock – fear of failure, fear of rejection, fear of standing by my own convictions. I haven’t figured out the root of all of my fear but I’m learning to let go of it.

Faith has taken on a whole new meaning for me. It has freed me from the guilt and fear that kept me from living and loving. I thank God for the people and circumstances that have been placed on my path to guide me.

On Up The Mountain Lyrics

Jakob Dylan

You’re old enough to know well
The better things are all up hill
Bitter songs are never sung
In the highlands where you belong
In the smoke of cannons below
Men they bury each other in rows
People come people go
Work in numbers and leave alone

There’s a light making its way
On up the mountain night and day
You’ll get tired and you’ll get weak
But you won’t abandon your masterpiece

Off to sleep you’ll go
Through the halls and opened doors
Silver bells swinging low
Strung in branches of the unknown
Soon morning comes
To warm the world and wake you up
Night is gone awful fast
It ain’t wrong to be sad

There’s a light making its way
On up the mountain night and day
You’ll go down and you’ll go deep
But you won’t surrender your masterpiece

Here it comes and there it goes
The unbearable sound of the earth making men out of boys
First you learn then you’ll teach
About the bright bright light
Making its way
On up the mountain night and day
You’ll get tired and you’ll get weak
But you won’t abandon your masterpiece

There’s a light making its way
On up the mountain night and day
You’ll go down and you’ll go deep
But you won’t surrender your masterpiece
You will deliver your masterpiece
