Description By Breath Words and music by by Sara Thomsen By breath, by blood, by body, by spirit, we are all one The air that is my breath is the air that you are breathing And the air that is your breath is the air that I am breathing The wind rising in my breast is the wind from the east, from the west From the north, from the south, breathing in, breathing out The water that is my blood, my sweat, tears from crying Is the water that is your blood, your sweat, tears from crying And the rising of the tide is in our veins and in the ocean wide We are in the rising steam, rushing river, running stream The earth is dust, the earth is clay, flowrs blossoming and fading We are dust and we are clay, we are blossoming and fading Every color, every sound, every place is holy ground Oh, every living thing, can you hear it laugh? Can you hear it sing? The fire in my heart, my soul flame burning Is the fire in your heart, your soul flame burning We are Spirit burning bright, by the light of day, in the dark of night We are shining like the sun, and like the moon, like the Holy One By breath, by blood, by body, by spirit, we are all one © 2003 Sara Thomsen www.sarathomsen.com sara@sarathomsen.com |
