In 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

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
