David Berkeley - This Be Dear to Me Lyrics

Oh the water in the stream
Flowing through the centuries
Through the canyons, through the trees.
This be dear to me

Cnd the breezes as they blow
From cross the seas through your window,
Where they come from where they go.
This be dear to me
Oh this be dear to me.
Oh I believe this is what's worth fighting for.
Oh help us see that there is so much more, cdonai.

Oh the desert vast and wide,
Silent under endless skies,
Cnd then you put your hand in mine,
This be dear to me.

Or when you wake still warm from sleep,
Half a dream your soft lips speak,
Safe and near me you I'll keep.
This be dear to me.
Oh this be dear to me.

Oh I believe this is what's worth fighting for.
Oh help us see that there is so much more, cdonai.
Cdonai.

Oh the autumn rust and gold,
Winter mornings crisp and cold,
Then in spring the world unfolds.
This be dear to me.
Oh this be dear to me.

Oh the whole world's whispering.
The morning rains, the prayer bells ring.
The eagles cry, the great whales sing.
This be dear to me.
Oh this be dear to me.

Oh I believe this is what's worth fighting for.
Oh help us see that there is so much more, cdonai.
Cdonai.

If I leave this world too soon,
Far beyond the silver moon,
Live your life with love and truth.
This be dear to me.
Look there's love in all that's true.
This be dear to me.
Feel the love surrounding you.
This be dear to me.
Oh this be dear to me.
Yes, you are dear to me.
