Lyrics
V1) I am a little man pretending to know the land
Willing to give advice, but will not accept so nice
Going from here to there, distracted by sites and scares
But, then in the middle, I remember how He cares
V2) How your visage makes all problems go away
Though there are many who may say my sanity has been betrayed
But simple truths are taught with bowed heads and hands that fold
So every night at Grace, I pray not to bring Him shame
Ch) The Avatar has come, He comes to give us his love
He calls us home no matter where we are
My, My, my, He gives us sight
Sight, sight, sight for the blind
Oh, Oh, Oh, He gives us hope
Hope, hope, hope with His smile
(Bridge) Oh Avatar, you're never far
What keeps us where we are - so far
Is our hearts are lost like a ship of fools
With a tablecloth for a chart
Repeat verse 2 with added;
In Meher Baba's Name, accepting the sun and rain.
Repeat Chorus
