Songs for Our Journey 49

This song was born as fires burn throughout the western US and Canada, in a year that has been, as my partner and I like to say,
one pandemic after another. I know I am not alone in feeling a great deal of heartache, as well as a tremendous love for all beings on earth living through this challenging time.  This song is dedicated to all of us, that we may meet our many feelings from our own compassionate heart.  And get out the vote.  Love, Kathleen

River Of Tears
© K Hannan 2020

Will I drown in this river?
River of tears, oh the tears
I have found there's no way out of here
And now I fall on the ground
And wait for the strength
To weep, and weep, and weep

Oh will I burn in this fire?
Fire of hate, oh the hate
And we have found there's no way out of here
And now we fall on the ground
And find the strength
To breathe, and breathe and breathe

And will I die in this ocean?
Ocean of love, oh the Love
For I have found there's no way out of here
And now I fall on the ground
And rest in the strength
Of love, of love, of love

​And now we fall on the ground
And rest in the strength
Of love, of love, of love
