lyrics

When I was younger now than in my present form
I could've sworn I knew just what my hands were for.
I'd ball them into fists and throw lightning storm fits
when men challenged my whit. I didn't know when to quit.
But now I see clearly just what my hands are really for:

They are made to heal. They are made to pray.
They are made to give thanks at the end of my day.
They are made to give. There are made to receive,
eternal abundance I chose to believe.
And when its said and done.
We'll raise our hands to the sky, and SING AS ONE!

Ohhhhhhh Oh Oh Ohhhhhh ...

We'll pick up the pieces of the broken hearts
We will tear down this curtain of fear
We'll break down the walls divide us all
'cause our souls can't wait to hear
the call of the people united as one.
See the smiles on the face of babes.
The purpose of people with no need for leaders,
when we all live from our hearts.
I see it so clearly and today is a good day to start.

Ohhhhhh Oh Oh Ohhhhhhh. ...x2

I dig my hands deep down in the dirt
I give thanks for my body. I give thanks for my birth.
I breathe in deep and hear her breathing too.
There's not so much difference between the trees, me, and you.
It's time that we all come home,
with open hands, open hearts, and bless-ed souls.

Ohhhhh Oh Oh Ohhhhhhh ...x2

May we shoot
LIGHT! from our fingers and
LIGHT! from our toes.
LIGHT! in our hearts and
LIGHT! in our souls x4

We are here to heal. We are here to pray.
We are here to give thanks at the end of our days.
We are here to give. We are here to receive,
eternal abundance we chose to believe.
And when its said and done
we'll raise our hands to the sky and SING AS ONE!

Ohhhhh Oh Oh Ohhhhhhh ...x4
