This song was inspired by a powerful portrait session with Kenny (pictured below). As you might have guessed, he’s incredible at connecting with what he wants.

Movement practice: release your rays

Can you feel the dawning of your desires through a movement?
Maybe arms extend like rays across a vast landscape, reaching out to the living, breathing web of potential.
It’s important to share our desires with words but how do we first feel their silent essence with a joyous, expansive heart? And how do we trust that unseen forces are listening?

Lyrics

Within this body of god
I have a heart of want,
and it’s as natural as Sunrise
and it’s as natural as a predator hunting for its prey
and it’s as natural as the soil yearning for decay
and it’s as cold as the river that shocks you awake
and it’s as unrelenting as the desert with no clouds to break…
the coming of sunrise.
It’s the fire in your eyes,
burning you if it’s denied.

Release my rays across these plains
Send the rains that water my heartache
My pure longing grows a greenscape.
