When mommy came into the room later, we told her with a beaming face that we had argued, but then sang “Will du do obä” ("Because you are up in heaven"), hugged each other and then had “peace in our hearts” again. Mummy was so happy and so were we. Since then, we have always sung this song very loudly when discord has come in, and then peace immediately returns!

No one can stop me

Maybe you're like me: it seems like I can't stop the world from getting worse every day. It seems like I can't stop myself from losing faith. But in the same way, no one can stop me from getting back up and taking hold of faith again! Even if we are weak, no one can stop us because God, who is above all, lives and works through us. And whatever he says gives us the strength to go on!

Trust

Trust - a deep emotion that signals true connection, vulnerability, strength and at the same time an honest willingness to complement. What a gift it is to be surrounded by trustworthy people - and above all, to be safe and secure in your trust in the Creator of heaven and earth. This song invites you to become calm in the knowledge: You are held and carried by this God.

Connected

Being connected means being a small part of the big picture; like a tree that only thrives and bears fruit in symbiosis with the earth, the sun and the rain: an exchange of taking and giving. Many individual different parts that only together form a unity and bring forth life, connected to this creative power, this life-giving energy; connected to everyone and everything.

Wakpa, The River

2024-02-03T13:34:47+00:00Friends Meeting, News, OCG Youth, People of the OCG, Sasek Family, Songs|

Wakpa means "river" in the Lakota Indian language. It symbolizes the nature of our life. Like the river, we spring from a source and have a great purpose. The river pushes forward steadfastly, overcoming every barrier, watering, changing and giving life to its surroundings. Realized with breathtaking images, indian instruments and recorded by a Lakota Native American, this song wants to call us all to be a part of this change ourselves.
