Just For Today

12 Jul 2024 · C · 2:22 · 80 BPM · Comments 0

My lyrics here are inspired and adapted from the wise words of Mikao Usui and Prem Rawat. If I say out loud with good intentions each day the 5 reiki principles, I always have a good day :-) Give it a try! Those principles are:
Just for today, I will let go of worry
Just for today, I will let go of anger
Just for today, I will be kind to all living things
Just for today, I will earn my life with integrity
Just for today, I will give thanks for my many blessings.

The melody is from a sample on Dervish Chant by African Head Charge which credits the composers as B. Anderson, A. Maxwell and B. Alexander but I don't know who is singing on the original sample, but it's a beautiful melody!

JUST FOR TODAY (WE HAVE WON)
To enjoy a good day, sing this, with good intentions, at the start of your day

...Choruses
1
Just for today I choose, to make the most of my life
And seek out joy here and there
2
Just for today I choose, to let go of my worries
I will take action instead
3
Just for today I choose, to let go of my anger
It is wasted energy
4
Just for today I choose, to be kind to all living things
Kindness is pure energy
5
Just for today I choose, to earn my life with integrity
And try to do the right thing
6
Just for today I choose, to give thanks for my many blessings
So much to be thankful for
7
Thank you for the gift of life. Without life, I would have nothing
But now I've got everything

...Verses
I can see, hear and taste, smell and touch
I can feel and enjoy very much!
Good or bad, happy sad, it's my choice
When I find my inner voice

If I'm kind, and I care, it feels good
Compassion and respect, they feel good,
But anger, and worry, they do not
So what choice have I got?

...Choruses
8
Just for today I choose, to show thanks for my life
And seek out joy there and here
9
Thank you for the gift of life. Without life, I would have nothing
But now I've got everything
