Reason
Why does the Eagle fly, why does the grass grow;
Because The Great Spirit wishes it so.
The Maker of Life, creates all living things;
And into each life His Spirit brings;
The Reason to live and the Reason to die,
Only the Great Spirit knows why.
That the sky is blue, and the rivers flow;
Because He is the one that wishes it so.
When my hair turns gray, and my bones grow cold;
And the skin on my face is wrinkled and old.
The Little Ones gather to hear my story;
Of days gone by and times of Glory.
I shall tell them why that soon I must go;
Because the Great Spirit wishes it so.
All things must live, and all things must die;
We make the best of life and always try.
To Honor the Spirit of all living things;
With that Honor our Spirit brings....REASON.
For the Eagle to fly and for grass to grow,
It is because the Great Spirit wishes it so.
