C4. | Let my heart find a true key
Show me truth so I’ll be free
Love me when on bended knee
|
V4. | I hold the priesthood of my God
And strive to honor each covenant made
In the world today it might seem odd
To live by standards some call staid
|
C5. | Love me when on bended knee
Open up my eyes to see
Show me truth so I’ll be free
|
V5. | I strive to keep my mind busy
Thinking, and opening new doors
Sometimes the paths are very dizzy
And sometimes open exciting tours
|
C6. | Show me truths so I’ll be free
Give me strength to run with glee
Open up my eyes to see
|
V6. | I enjoy my work a lot
Creating jobs and being taught
Looking beyond what can be bought
Striving to find what will be sought
|
C7. | Open up my eyes to see
Open up my eyes please
Open up my eyes to see

Thoreau summed up the framework of time and space with these words:
Why should we be in such desperate haste to succeed and in such desperate enterprises? If a man does not keep pace with his companions,
perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. It is not important
that he should mature as soon as an apple tree or an oak. Shall he turn his spring into summer? If the condition of things which we were made
for is not yet, what were any reality which we can substitute? We will not be shipwrecked on a vain reality. Shall we with pains erect a heaven
of blue glass over ourselves, though when it is done we shall be sure to gaze still at the true ethereal heaven far above, as if the former were not?2.68
