I Am

I am the motion of the wind
As it rustles through the trees
I am the sound of crashing waves upon the ocean
As they rush to meet the shore
I am the mountain ranges
I am the rivers and the streams
I am the seed of every flower, every plant, and every tree
I am the one that moves in silence
As I tremble beneath your feet
I am the force behind the shifting sands
As they approach across the dusty plains

I am the noise of distant thunder and the sounds of driving rains,
I am the power of the storm
I am the clouds that drift slowly high above you
As you look up to the skies

I am the essence of all that’s living
As we travel throughout the night
So as you look to the heavens
Know that I am near

I am the one that ascends in silence
As we move across the evening skies
Know me, I am earth, I am living
Now listen hear me breathe
And know I am the only one and
There is nothing else like me
