Today 
Your problems are not
Of blind belief 
That is or means
Belief ain't enough, belief ain't enough 
The oracle of your age 
Point towards the word 
Psychological

You may freeze 
You may fear 
You may wince 
And not hear 
You can sick at the heart 
When I say 
"God is one" 
Does God the word 
Make you reel 
And I mean, real

But it isn't God the father son or holy one, 
But the key to your age 
Get it together, and listen 
With all the books 
On the shelf 
All the wisdom 
With all the books
On the shelf 
All the wisdom

Hatha Yoga, Omm

Libraries full of keys
Libraries full of keys 
Where's your lock?
