Blueprints

Peter Mayer/Jim Mayer
Thanks to Doug Haugen

There is a wind that moves all around us
Making the sound of a song if you listen
And yet we wander over the world
For a place to belong to replace what we’re missing
We bring our differences, our hopes, our faith and fears
We’ll build a home for love in this family
For the Light that brought us here

Chorus
In this blueprint for living
Each new day is lifted up
For this house we lay a foundation
On the cornerstone of love

The face of this world is changing and turning
What are we learning, and what is our vision?
We build the walls of strength deep inside us
They must not divide us, become our prison
We bring our differences, our hopes and faith, our fears
We’ll build a home for love in this family
For the light that brought us here

Chorus

With a blueprint for living
That calls you back from where you’ve been
In this house we build a doorway
To send us out and welcome in

There is a river of life all around us
It’s our common ground, the gift we are given
Ocean and sky, the wild of the forest,
Were here long before us and meant for our children
We bring our differences, our hopes and faith, our fears
We’ll build a home for love in this family
For the light that brought us here

Chorus
In this blueprint for living
From the Word that touched the earth
Round this house we plant a Garden
God’s grace for our rebirth
Lend your voice in celebration
Lend your hand in lifting up
This is the day of creation
Built on the cornerstone of Love
