It begins With one breath And ends With one hundred One hundred hearts Beating as one Thunder in our blood Lightning in our lungs Notes fell like rain Down     Down         Down Onto our parched and thirsty tongues Feast your ears Close your eyes And let bass notes hum through you As the sopranos soar above Let the altos Catch your heart and squeeze Just a little Just a little As the tenors serenade you Come and join us, friend, Come and dance with us! Drink with us Of Melody And be quenched By Harmony Let your heart be freed Fly high, oh soul! Soak up our joy, friend, Let us lift you up and then Gently So gently Set you down With a whisper With a prayer With one breath One hundred souls S i g h And, so, they sleep To wait for the rain To come again

It Begins
It begins With one breath And ends With one hundred One hundred hearts Beating as one Thunder in our blood Lightning in our lungs Notes fell like rain Down     Down         Down Onto our parched and thirsty tongues Feast your ears Close your eyes And let bass notes hum through you As the sopranos soar above Let the altos Catch your heart and squeeze Just a little Just a little As the tenors serenade you Come and join us, friend, Come and dance with us! Drink with us Of Melody And be quenched By Harmony Let your heart be freed Fly high, oh soul! Soak up our joy, friend, Let us lift you up and then Gently So gently Set you down With a whisper With a prayer With one breath One hundred souls S i g h And, so, they sleep To wait for the rain To come again
