This was my senior song in high school. The college I attend also performed this song the year before I came here. Z. Randall stroope power ballad of moving through life. It's ironic that as a senior in college I still hold Omina Sol close to my heart. However, the emotions run somewhat the same as they did four years ago, there is a new undertone that wasnt there.
" Weave the dance and raise the chorus; grieve no more…
Through the strength of Orion, find refuge from the shore!
Let courage be your oar, let passion be your sail;
Wisdom and truth will guide your deep heart’s yearning, though all travail!
O stay your soul and leave my heart its song!
O stay your hand; the journey may be long!
And when we part, and sorrow can’t be sway’d…
Remember when, and let your heart be staid"
This is now the most powerful part of Stroope song. Grieve no more....the heartache and tears of the past while they hurt should be set aside. Let orion be the strength and find refuge from the shore. God is my Orion and refuge is life itself. Let courage be your oar and passion be your sail. Passion for the future has always prepetuated me through all troubled times. Wisdom and truth will guide your deep hearts yearning... Thank goodness for that! and through all travial...telling us no matter what, substitute these simple things.
the beautifully melodic chorus. The repeated and hard fought lesson of it all.
Omnia Sol was a song that I sang with many great people in my life. Its a song ive caught myself humming too. I feel like God has used the message of Stroope's lyrics to remind me that no matter what outcome comes with my life to keep moving forward.
So, in the lesson of this blog! Stay the course, and hold on to your dreams! Because somehow, someway, it will all come out alright in the end!
