  ​SPIRIT OF THE PLAINS​
​From eons past he ruled the land
​From and undisputed throne
Made from natures finest
Of earth and grass and stone
 
The prairie was his kingdom
Seemed to stretch without end
His anthem softly playing
On the ceaseless wind
 
Then a new sound was heard across the kingdom
It was the wind of change
A sound never heard before
A sound so harsh and strange

​Now his kingdom is divided
As man staked off his claim
There’s a new king on the prairie
And progress is his name
 
Though his kingdom is divided
His spirit still remains
You can hear it if you listen
In the wind upon the plains
 
​You can hear it if you listen
He’s the Spirit of the Plains

​CIRCLE OF LIFE — INSPIRATION
He gazed upon the heavens 
An eagle crossed his sight
Amazed at it's gracefulness
 Inspired by it's flight

He mimicked his creation
Inspiration he had found
Of wood and cloth, string, and twine
Man rose above the ground

​BREAKING FREE

I Never Meant To Go This Far
I Never Meant To Stay
I Never Knew What It Would Cost
The Price I’d Have To Pay
​ 
Now It’s Anchored In My Soul
It’s Anchored Hard And Fast
In Bondage Now I Live My Life
In Bondage To  My Past

​ Voices Ringing In My Mind
Lies I Now Believe
What  Will It Take, This Thing To Break
And Makes These Voices Leave
 
So Here Before The Cross Of Christ
I Kneel On Bended Knee
Only He Can Break The Anchors Hold
Only He Can Set Me Free

​RAISING OLD GLORY
They raised the flag together
The rope in both their hands
As he talked about its history
Battles fought in foreign lands

And those who fought for freedom 
Who answered our nations call
Not always understanding
Yet they fought and gave their all

​Son, don't ever take it lightly
The sacrifice they made
So we have the freedom to Raise Old Glory
And the price that they paid

HER HEART SINGS
Arms stretched high into the sky
Her face into the winds
She sings praises to her Maker
And the Spirit that he sends

Her dance is like the eagle
Who flies free on feathered wing
She's at peace with her Maker
Causing Her Heart to Sing

​Chrome buffalo skull


WITH WINGS LIKE EAGLES 
With patience he has learned to wait
For the strength the Spirit brings
Now he rides high upon the winds
As on eagles wings

Now he walks and it is not weary 
Now he runs and will not fall
His strength is overflowing
As he heeds the Spirits call

END OF AN AGE
I’ll ride free no more forever
I heard the old cowboy say
Like those who’ve gone on before me
I’ll hang up my spurs today
 
‘Cause times they are a changin’
They’re fencin’ off the range
I reckon I’m too old
Or maybe too stubborn to change
 
The longhorns replaced by the hereford
The old chuckwagons parked for good
Settin’ lonely out there on the prairie
Just weathered and rotten old wood


​Like the Indian and the buffalo before me
Forever no more will they roam
These mountains and prairies and badlands
That once they called their home
 
Some say this is progress
Others say its just how things are
But I wonder why we would want it
And how is it we’ve come this far
 
And I reckon it’s easy to see
We’ve come to the end of an age
This chapter in life’s book is over
But it’s sure hard to turn the next page

​LOVE FOR THE LAND
The lifestyle he is living
Few men now understand
As he coaxes a living
From the land

His roots like his crops are deep
In that prairie soil
Planted by his ancestors
Through blood and sweat and toil
​
Honest men of character
Who stood when called to stand
Driven by hard work and faith
And a love for the land​

​-Bill (Three Feathers) Bunting

FAITH
Where is it that I gain my faith
And hope eternal springs
Its in my faith I gain my hope 
And the peace and joy it brings

CIRCLE OF LIFE — MONARCH
The Artist gathered from the earth
And dipped into the sea
then molded in his very hands
That which was soon to be

Soon before the Artist
The Masterpiece now stood 
Perfect in Creation
He deemed that is was good

​

​Set The captives free

​CIRCLE OF LIFE — PRAISE
The Artist gathered form the earth
And dipped into the sea
And molded in his very hands
The woman soon to be

Then before the Artist
New found hands raise
With new formed lips and vocal cords
She fills the void with praise
