The Great Spirit

(Verse 1)

In the whispering wind and the eagle’s flight,

In the rhythm of drums by the firelight,

In the stories passed from the old to the young,

There echoes the truth of the Ancient One.

From the mountains high to the canyon deep,

He watched o'er your people while they’d sleep.

Your song of the earth, the sky, living things,

To His holy name and His glory sings.

(Chorus)

He is the Great Spirit’s Son,

The Father’s gift, the Risen One.

The living water, the sacred way,

Who came to heal and your sin debt pay.

(Verse 2)

In the dances of life and the sacred rains,

Through the hunt and harvest, joys and pains,

Your reverence for the Great One Above

Has been answered with His perfect love.

Not to take, but to redeem,

By His blood flowing as a living stream.

The cross was made of a tree that day—

A promise of peace, from the Living Way.

(Chorus)

He is the Great Spirit’s Son,

The Father’s gift, the Risen One.

The living water, the sacred way,

Who came to heal and your sin debt pay.

(Bridge)

From the smoke of the pipe to the silent prayer,

He meets your spirit anywhere.

No need to leave all your ancient ways,

If Christ receives your sacred praise.

(Verse 3)

Let your feathers fly in the holy breeze,

Let your flutes sing songs that bring you peace.

He knows your pain, He bore your strife,

He gives your spirit eternal life.

(Final Chorus)

He is the Great Spirit’s Son,

The Father’s gift, the Risen One.

The hope that every tribe will see,

That Christ has come to set you free.
