Story Behind The Song
After many years of practicing the Transcendental Meditation technique, I am convinced that the calm and inner peace one can achieve is what Jesus referred to when he spoke of the Kingdom of Heaven. I wanted to express this idea in a way that pleases the ear without being preachy.
Song Description
This song evokes feelings of peace and calm, as you are invited to close your eyes, relax and meditate. The glorious soprano soothes her way deep into your mind as she alludes to a similarity between the Kingdom of Heaven and recently documented physiological states. The inference is that Jesus taught meditation. Whilst this subtle level of meaning may wash over the intellect, the song continues its gentle meandering with further peaceful affirmations.

Lyrics
Verse 1
Close your eyes, let quietness over take you my darling.
Put your trust in your mantra it won't let you down.
While you rest your cares can be forgotten, my darling.
Just relax, listen to your magic sound.
Chorus
A man on the banks of the Galilee
said the Kingdom of Heaven is in you and me.
It's Soothing. Soothing,
When you meditate.
Soothing, Soothing, to feel that beautiful state.
Verse 2
After you come out you'll be rewarded, my darling.
Nature works for those who learn to love her ways.
You will know the reason for your being, my darling.
Treasure's in your mind waiting to be raised.
Chorus
Verse 3
I can see the sparkle in your eyes growing brighter, my darling.
I can see your happiness building day by day.
Feel the world open its heart to you my darling.
Life is better now that you've found your way.
