Take It All
Take it all, take it all, take it all
Purify my soul
Take it all, take it all, take it all
I am here to follow your call
I place myself inside your hands
Like a grain in a pestle and mortar
Reduce me to your fine white sands
I am here to follow your orders
Take it all, take it all, take it all
Purify my soul
Take it all, take it all, take it all
I am here to follow your call
Take the mistakes I may have made
Through ignorance and pride
Through foolishness, willfulness
Anger, greed and lies
Take it all, take it all, take it all
Purify my soul
Take it all, take it all, take it all
I am here to follow your call
And the sound of the water beating on the rocks
By the rivers and the waterfalls
Is the sound of my mind opening locks
At the heed of the divine call
Take it all, take it all, take it all
Purify my soul
Take it all, take it all, take it all
I am here to follow your call
Now wash me clean in the deepest stream
Of the rivers of the divine soul
For I find that the time has arrived to align
With the spirit of the divine call
Take it all, take it all, take it all
Purify my soul
Take it all, take it all, take it all
I am here to follow your call

Astral Dawn
Make me a channel for your peace
May your healing waters flow through me
As the rivers flow to the sea.
Make me a channel for your truth
May my life be guided by your light
As the tree grows forth from the root
Make me a channel for your love
May your healing waters cleanse my soul
So that I may comfort others
Make me a channel for your light
May your healing rays shine through my heart
Like a lantern in the night
Make me a channel for your flow
May your winds of change blow through my soul
For all things come and go
Make me a channel for your grace
May your divine luminescent light
All actions permeate
Make me a channel for your cure
May each word and thought and deed
Be aligned with the spirit of the sacred source
I open up my heart
To the spirit of the Astral Dawn
From the Sun, the Moon and the Stars
The Light of Love is born

Gentle Healer
Wash me clean in your waters
And baptise me in your love
Crystalene in your pureness
Gentle healer, Mamãe Oxum
For like a wave in the ocean
I have no life apart from thee
So wash away these old emotions
Purify me and set me free

Spirit Of The Ancestors
Spirit of the ancestors
You lived your life so we could be
Spirit of the ancestors
We sing this song to honour thee
You lived your life on Earth
By the flames of the fire
The waves of the sea
And the gift of greatest worth
Is the gift of life
You gave to me
Spirit of the ancestors
You lived your life so we could be
Spirit of the ancestors
We sing this song to honour thee
I feel you deep within
Spirit of the sacred waters
Spirit of the sacred wind
We are your sons and daughters
Spirit of the ancestors
You lived your life so we could be
Spirit of the ancestors
We sing this song to honour thee

Daughter Of The Stars
Oh My Mother, deep blue of the seas
Oh My Mother, deep green of the trees
Oh My Mother, fire, flesh and bone
Oh My Mother, feather, wind and stone
Oh My Mother, daughter of the stars
Oh My Mother, waters of my heart
Oh My Mother, black and blue and gold
Oh My Mother, guardian of my soul
Oh My Mother, jewel of the universe
Oh My Mother, heart of the hummingbird
Oh My Mother, moon of the midnight hour
Oh My Mother, universal flower
Oh My Mother, source of birth and breath
Oh My Mother, I return to you in death
Oh My Mother, guardian of my soul.
I offer you my heart
As this path of love unfolds.

Sacred Tao
Life and death
Death and life
All that’s real
Is transformation
Chant and sing
With sound and breath
The heart can feel
A good vibration
Tears of joy
Tears of pain
My heart goes out
To every nation
Bird on the wing
Cloud in the sky
Thanks and praise
For all creation
Night and day
Day and night
An intergalactic
Constellation

A Higher Cause
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna

In the Springtime, in the Winter
In the Summertime and the Fall
I feel my Mother deep within me
And all around, I hear her call
Oh Divine Mother, Radha Rani
Mãe Divina, Queen of my soul
Pachamama, Kundalini
Spirit rising, in one and all
In this garden, in this sanctuary
Of the hummingbird and the dove
Sacred harmony, healing wisdom
In this Temple of Holy Love
On this journey of transformation
There is darkness, and there is loss
In this learning purification
In sweet surrender to a higher cause
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna

Trust In The Path is a selection of songs from the Lotus Rising songbook by Adrian Freedman. These songs have been received by Adrian in sacred ceremonies. Simple songs on themes of light, hope, beauty, healing growth and transformational flow. The songs of the Lotus Rising songbook echo the ancient wisdom teachings of the forests and of sacred traditions from East and West, embodied in new melodies and lyrics.
“For 20 years I would only sing these songs in sacred ceremonies or sacred music festivals, but now the times are changing and I am feeling the call to share them with whoever wishes to listen, the same as I have been doing with my acoustic instrumental music for all these years.
These songs are intimate messages and prayers that I have received in the deepest folds of my heart. They’ve guided my steps through the transformative years I have been walking on a spiritual path and a medicine path.”
Trust In The Path features Adrian singing and playing guitar and shakuhachi. Misha Mullov-Abbado accompanies on double bass and additional contributions are made by Mike Stanton on guitar and Green on percussion. The album was mixed and mastered in Oslo by Nils Olav and Jock Loveband.
