  1. Universal Prayer -:-- / 3:42

Just rest and breathe
And close your eyes but keep your mind from sleep
And hear
Me talk you through

Your feet, and your legs
And your body, chest and neck
And your arms, now your head
So heavenly

You’re alone, no one here
Just the golden sun and the tender auburn sand
Feel the waves
Lap at your feet

Now you walk, miles of peace
As your soft, warm skin’s enveloped by the breeze
And you bathe
In this atmosphere

In the dusk, up ahead
An oasis of a magical degree
You can sense
Him standing there

Closer still, purely drawn
As the golden-orange sunset lights the sky
You have reached
Your destiny

Then you move into my arms which I have joyously extended for you, and I greet the beauty in front of me that I have long been awaiting. Our eyes catch and delve deeply as we hold each other tightly, embracing under the shimmering, starlit evening sky. Gently, I whisper in your ear…

There’s nothing left to ask
There’s nothing left to fear
There’s nothing left to try
To prove how much I cherish you

There’s nothing in this world
But a universal prayer
To reach my arms around you
From the edges of despair

From all that lives and breathes
To matter with no path
From geologic entities
To insubstantial marks

There’s nothing in this world
But a universal prayer
To tell you how much
This love would mean to me

To tell you how much
This love would mean to me

To tell you how much
This love would mean to me

About Dan

Acoustic storyteller Dan Schaumann returns with his latest musical release, I Wish I Lived In Canada, available now on all major streaming platforms.

Having cut his musical teeth on the sidewalks and bars of Townsville and Brisbane, Dan followed his heart to the UK and later to Canada where he’s resided since 2013.

From lost love to found feet, toppled dreams to open doors, Dan’s attitude to life is as infectious as the songs he draws from it. His artistic creations speak of an extraordinary journey into the experiences of a contemporary traveler.
