Mystical song about the acceptance of the forgiven world.

In order for us to experience our True Identity as a Son of God, we need to forgive the world of fear we made. All of our false beliefs—including the belief that the Son of God can die—have to be released, until we're left with 'just hallelujah.'

This song is a gentle reminder that we have never actually left our Home in God. Even though we may seem to travel the world of dreams, our Self rests in eternal quiet Peace.
