The New Day

thenewday_cover.jpgIn 2007 Linn released two new songs, “The New Day” and “Breathing love”. By the request to contribute to the Symposia and the historic silent prayer for the planet, the songs were  dedicated to life on earth.

“This is a call for humanity to come together regardless of opinions and religious persuasions, and embrace the challenges that are faced by life on this planet. It is a call to commune with each other and to feel the heart of the earth we are destroying - before it is too late”

Musical production by Svein Schultz and Herman Rundberg
Co musical producer: Linn Stokke

Musicians: Bjørn Charles Dreyer - Schultz - Rundberg

Symposia 2007 & The silent prayer for the planet

Dear  Friends around the world

Thank you all for participating in the Silent Prayer for the Planet

Friday September 7th


Facing the environmental challenges the earth is experiencing; spiritual communities, different religions,  hearts worldwide opened into this connection ……created by  what  we agree upon; the existence of love….. the power  of love to open….. to change…..to bring peace to the planet

The strong connection and opening  we all created together was deeply    present in the Arctic where the silent prayer took place amidst the icebergs  … presenting natures breathtaking beauty 

as … amazing … grace

The Icefjord Commitment signed by the religious leaders at Illulisat sept 7th is now on my website…..as well as some private pictures from the event

In gratitude for your presence

Linn 

 

The Icefjord Commitment

Statement by Religious Leaders at Ilulissat, Greenland 7th September 2007

 

Amidst the wisdom and majesty of water, ice and sunlight, we have each prayed within the realm of our own traditions.

Now we stand side by side in acknowledgement of our responsibility toward God’s Creation.
We recognise the interdependence of all life, that in its many manifestations sustains this planet, and realise our dependence on this myriad of relationships.

We commit ourselves to the simplest acts of love, compassion and gratitude toward the vast web of life.
The Earth is a living entity with incredible healing powers, and we have much to learn. It is the task of our generation to leave this sacred Earth, in all its wisdom and beauty to the generations to come.

Let the work begin.

We make this pledge before the whole of creation.

Lyrics

The New Day

The first light
 the first light
 is here
 the new day
 the new Day
 the new day
 is near

A day to make another choice
to listen to the other voice
a day to bring the ship to shore
ship to shore
ship to shore
we are not lost anymore

Rays of light
are flowing
flowing to the earth
giving life ….unfolding
unfolding the new birth

We’ll remember what we know
we can’t loose when we are love
I ll take your hand we’ll walk ashore
walk ashore
walk ashore
so we’re not lost anymore

Rays of light are flowing through
touching me and touching you
We`ll walk ashore
just take my hand
take my hand
we are the promised land

When you take my hand
we are the promised land
 

Breathing love

Can you hear the ocean
dancing with the tide
can you feel the earth
so vibrantly alive
can you sense a seed
growing deep inside

A seed of all not given
a flower of love
for earth and wisdom
for our  heaven above
can you sense the seed growing

Just like the river
knows where to flow
just like the seed
knows how to grow
Like the golden field
Move with the wind
Like heaven above
Breathing love

Can you hear the ocean
dancing with the tide
can you feel the earth
so vibrantly alive
can you sense the seed
growing deep inside
Like heaven above
Breathing love
