Uranian chants

Anthem of the Apogees

            We are the Apogees, humble in our journey.

We believe in Love

            We are revolutionaries.

                        Spiritual Revolutionaries.

We have eternal faith in naturalness.

            We eat fruit.

                        We eat vegetables.

                                    We eat nuts and such.

We aren’t afraid of believing in God.

            Because we know we are God.

We were you before you even existed.

We tear down roads of the unknown,

            Our cares flying away like strands of fabric

                        In the wind behind us.

We carry each other in our he(art)s with Love.

          Each of us is a sister or a brother to one another.

                        Each of us balanced.

We challenge one another

            To reveal the greater and greater depths

                        Of Truth

                        And of Love

                        And of this human existence.

We shape the world around us

            With our imaginations as paintbrushes

                      And the Earth as our canvas

                                    The sun and the stars and the moon as our guides

We fill our spiritual bellies with angel songs

            And angel stories

            And angel words

                        They become the décor in our home

We Love our home, spaceship Earth.

            We Love its green grasses

            We Love its fruit trees, its fantastical flora and fauna

            We Love its sounds and its spaces

            We Love its simplicity and its complexity

            We Love it all for it is all Us, too.

We are Apogees without apology.

We only wish to lift, to uplift, all spirits.

We are grateful for what is natural to us.

            And we learn from what is not.

We are our mentors.

            We are our teachers.

                        And we are our students.

Each Apogee is a path to God at its peak,

            Its turning point

                        Its burgeoning divinity.

We are the Apogees and we have dreams

            We dream of homes unknown to our eyes

                        But known deep within our he(art)s

We dream to remember that we are dreaming

            Each dream pregnant with potential

We are the Apogees and we blaze trails

            We search the world for what we know is there and is True

                        We seek God in all people, places, things

We are journeymen seeking what is West

            Because the sun sets there

                        And the sunset is the Apogee.

We are the Apogees and we are warm

            Wherever we may be, we find warmth

We share

            Stories

            Songs

            Breath

            Spaceship Earth

We are the Apogees and L(if)e is our drug

            And we Love our drug

                        With you.

We believe in color.

            We believe in green and yellow and red and purple

            We believe in you, Blue.

We believe in making this Earth beautiful

            Through each spirit

            Through each he(art).

            Because each he(art) is unique

                        And it colors this Earth in its own way

We Love when spirits express themselves.

            Because each expression

                        Reveals a new broadening understanding of what is beautiful in this world.

                                    In this L(if)e.

We are the Apogees and we are children

            We are children, but we are not lost.

We are the Apogees and we are children but we are FREE.
