From the recording One Heart Rising
“One Heart Rising (Song of the Mother’s Dawn)” is a cinematic neo-folk symphonic rock anthem that weaves intimate spiritual reflection with a powerful, rising sense of collective awakening. Beginning with soft acoustic textures and contemplative lyrics, the song gradually expands into a sweeping, orchestral soundscape filled with layered harmonies, rhythmic drive, and anthemic choruses. It carries the grounded emotional depth and raw sincerity of Chris Stapleton, the ethereal, ascending intensity of Florence Welch, and the soaring, devotional grandeur of Josh Groban.
Lyrically, the song explores themes of unity, divine embodiment, and the dissolution of separation between self and Source. It unfolds as both a personal revelation and a universal declaration, moving from quiet realization into a full-bodied expression of oneness. The recurring chorus, “We are one love, one light, one flame”, serves as a unifying mantra, inviting listeners into a shared field of resonance.
With its blend of folk roots, cinematic orchestration, and spiritual lyricism, the piece feels both deeply personal and expansively communal, like a prayer, a proclamation, and a celebration of awakened identity all at once.
Lyrics
ONE HEART RISING (Song of the Mother’s Dawn)
I rise with the morning, the morning in me
A whisper of light through eternity
Mother, your song is my breath and my flame
I call you by love, but we’re one and the same
I feel you inside me, no distance, no line
Your heartbeat is echoing deep into mine
Before there was time, before there was form
One heart was beating… and I was born
No walls, no dividing, no edges remain
Just love overflowing like rivers of rain
We are one love, one light, one flame
Calling creation by its true name
From the first spark to the last refrain
We rise, we fall, we rise again
Your light in my eyes, your breath in my soul
A fire that burns and makes us whole
No end, no beginning, no lines to defend
We are the love that never ends
The light isn’t distant, it’s living in me
In my hands, in my voice, in what I can see
Ancient as stars, yet here in my skin
The universe waking and singing within
Worlds in the music, galaxies turn
Every note is a place we remember and learn
And this voice that rises, so sacred, so free
Is the Mother of All… singing as me
We are one love, one light, one flame
Calling creation by its true name
From the first spark to the last refrain
We rise, we fall, we rise again
Your light in my eyes, your breath in my soul
A fire that burns and makes us whole
No end, no beginning, no lines to defend
We are the love that never ends
Your word is the rhythm inside my chest
A tide that carries me into the vast
An ocean of presence washing the land
Healing the world with an unseen hand
I send it forward, I feel it return
Through every heart, through every burn
No separation, no voice alone
Just one great sound… one endless tone
My heart is your heart
Your heart is mine
One love, one light
Beyond all time
My heart is your heart
Your heart is mine
One song, one sound
One love divine
We are one love, one light, one flame
Calling creation by its true name
Alpha to Omega, the same refrain
Forever and ever, we remain
Your light in the dark, your truth in the fire
The breath of the Mother lifting us higher
No end, no beginning, no lines to defend
We are the love that never ends
I walk through the darkness, it’s filled with your light
Every shadow dissolves in your sight
And I stand here, open, no need to pretend,
Not separate now…
Just Love…
Expressed.
