There is a light in you that cannot die Whose presence is so holy the world is sanctified Because of you all living things bring gifts to you Offer them in gratitude And gladness at your feet The scent of flowers is their gift to you The waves bow down before you And trees extend their arms To sheild you from the heat I walk with god in perfect holiness I light the world I light my mind And all the minds which god created One with me The light in you is what the universe longs to behold All living things are still before you For they recognize who walks with you As you step back the light in you steps forward And encompasses the world It heralds no the end of sin In punishment and death But in lightness and in laughter it is gone I walk with god in perfect holiness I light the world I light my mind And all the minds which god created One with me Who walks with me? This question should be asked 1000 times a day Till certainty has ended doubting and established peace

I will not be afraid of love today. I will not be afraid of love today. Realize this salvation would be reached for all the world. I will not be afraid of love today. This the decision not to be insane, and to accept myself as God Himself My Father and my Source, created me. This the determination not to be asleep in dreams of death, while truth remains forever living in the joy of love. This the choice to recognize the Self Whom God created as the Son He loves, and Who remains my one Identity. I will not be afraid of love today. I will not be afraid of love today. Realize this salvation would be reached for all the world. I will not be afraid of love today. Father, Your Name is Love and so is mine. Such is the truth. And can the truth be changed by merely giving it another name? The name of fear is simply a mistake. Let me not be afraid of truth today. I will not be afraid of love today. I will not be afraid of love today. Realize this salvation would be reached for all the world. I will not be afraid of love today.

Peace to my mind. Let all my thoughts be still Peace to my mind. Let all my thoughts be still.. Father, I come to You today to seek the peace that You alone can give. I come in silence. In the quiet of my heart, the deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I come to hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will hear my call and answer me. Now do we wait in quiet. God is here, because we wait together. I am sure that He will speak to you, and you will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent; to hear our Father's answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal Himself unto His Son.

Be in my mind, my Father, through the day. Be in my mind, my Father, when I wake, shine on me father light the way Be in my mind, my Father, through the day. Let every minute be a time in which I dwell with You. And let me not forget my thanksgiving You have remained with me, and always will be there to hear my call and answer me. Be in my mind, my Father, through the day. Be in my mind, my Father, when I wake, shine on me father light the way Be in my mind, my Father, through the day. As evening comes, let all my thoughts be still of You and of Your Love. And let me sleep sure of my safety, certain of Your care, and happily aware I am Your Son. Have faith in Him Who is your Father. Trust all things to Him. Let Him reveal all things to you, and be you undismayed Be in my mind, my Father, through the day. Be in my mind, my Father, when I wake, shine on me father light the way Be in my mind, my Father, through the day

I will be still an instant and go home. I will be still an instant and go home. My kingdom is not of this world This is not where I belong I will be still an instant and go home.

God is with me. I live and move in Him. God is with me. He is my Source of life, the life within, the air I breathe, the food by which I am sustained, the water which renews and cleanses me. He is my home, wherein I live and move; the Spirit which directs my actions, offers me Its Thoughts, and guarantees my safety from all pain. He covers me with kindness and with care, and holds in love the Son He shines upon, who also shines on Him. How still is he who knows the truth of what He speaks today! Father, we have no words except Your Name upon our lips and in our minds, as we come quietly into Your Presence now, and ask to rest with You in peace a while.

My holiness shines bright and clear today. And I will ask for only joyous things to come to me Today I wake with joy, expecting but the happy things of God to come to me. I ask but them to come, and realize my invitation will be answered by the thoughts to which it has been sent by me. My holiness shines bright and clear today. And I will ask for only joyous things to come to me For what would be the use of pain to me, what purpose would my suffering fulfill, and how would grief and loss avail me if insanity departs from me today, and I accept my holiness? My holiness?
9.
There is no death because the son of god is like his father Nothing you can do can change eternal love Forget your dreams of sin and guilt and come with me instead to share the resurrection of God's son Nothing you can do can change eternal love Forget your dreams of sin and guilt and come with me instead to share the resurrection of God's son And bring with you all those who were sent to you to care for as I cared for you

The lord is my shepherd I shall not want He lays me down in green pastures He leads me beside the still waters He restores my soul He restores to me all that I’ve always been The lord is my shepherd I shall not want He lays a table before me in the presence of my enemies He restores my soul He returns to me all that I've always been Today I give up all that I’ve known I am To know that my will is one with the father and the son The lord is my shepherd I shall not want

All hearts are tranquil All longing satisfied The joy of heaven has come Love no longer feared But gladly welcomed in And every living thing Father now will sing of you And the song of heaven sounds around the world As it is lifted up oh lifted up No spot of darkness still to hide the world As we are lifted up oh lifted up love no longer feared But gladly welcomed in And every living thing father now will sing of you All hearts are tranquil All longing satisfied The joy of heaven has come Love no longer feared But gladly welcomed in And every living thing Father now will sing of you And the song of heaven sounds around the world As it is lifted up oh lifted up No spot of darkness still to hide the world As we are lifted up oh lifted up love no longer feared But gladly welcomed in And every living thing father now will sing of you And father now we stand the time of everlasting things is at hand

I am in danger nowhere in the world. I can't be threatened I can't be turned Away from the heaven Where I abide secure I am in danger nowhere in the world. How can he fear or doubt or fail to know I am not in danger, I won't find sorrow beloved and loving, in the safety of Your Fatherly embrace? No storms can come into the hallowed haven of our home. In God we are secure. For what can come to threaten God Himself, or make afraid what will forever be a part of Him? I am in danger nowhere in the world. I can't be threatened I can't be turned Away from the heaven Where I abide secure I am in danger nowhere in the world

about

The 12 Great Rays are a group of international musicians who came together to record spiritual music and perform live.

Their first album is a recording of songs based on the spiritual text “A Course in Miracles”. The recording was completed by Orea Varis, who wrote many of the compositions and is the “12 Great Rays” group leader. Other musicians involved include, Cam Kennedy, Ellie Kennedy, Bastian Berende, John Christiansen, Russell Wright, Darla Hughes, Pam Hughes, Eric Gatehouse, Guy Bolden and Peg L yons.

It was conceptualized using the “12 Great Rays” referred to in the text section of ACIM. These rays describe the range and color of the family of mankind in its spiritual light.

Popular amongst ACIM students all over the world, it was produced by an international school for students of ACIM, the now defunct Endeavor Academy of Wisconsin. This establishment had, at one time, affiliates all over the world, including Germany, Holland, Australia, Poland, Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico.

Some of these recordings were included on the soundtrack to the documentary film A Course in Miracles Unleashed.
