Tao

Verse 1: The way that can be spoken Is not the eternal way Like water, soft yet strong Flowing through night and day Chorus: Tao Te Ching, ancient wisdom Guiding us to be One with the universe Embracing mystery Verse 2: Non-action in action Letting go of desire Finding strength in weakness Like a flame without fire (Repeat Chorus) Bridge: The sage does not contend And so is never spent In silence, truth is found In emptiness, content Verse 3: The greatest virtue is Like water giving life Nourishing all beings Without struggle or strife (Repeat Chorus) Outro: The Tao is always near Yet hard to understand Like holding water tight It slips right through our hands
