Subject: Lyr Add: SWIMMING TO THE OTHER SIDE (Pat Humphries From: Ebbie Date: 18 Nov 03 - 07:17 PM Here's a song of hers where the theme of one-ness seems evident: Swimming to the Other Side Lyrics by: Pat Humphries Tune: original Date: 1992 Chorus: (same melody as verse) We are living 'neath the great Big Dipper We are washed by the very same rain We are swimming in the stream together Some in power and some in pain We can worship this ground we walk on Cherishing the beings that we live beside Loving spirits will live forever We're all swimming to the other side. I am alone, and I am searching, hungering for answers in my time I am balanced at the brink of wisdom; I'm impatient to receive a sign I move forward with my senses open, imperfection will be my crime In humility I will listen, we're all swimming to the other side On this journey through thoughts and feelings, finding intuition: my head, my heart I am gathering the tools together; I'm preparing to do my part All of those who have come before me, band together and be my guide Loving lessons that I will follow, we're all swimming to the other side When we get there we'll discover, all of the gifts we've been given to share Have been with us since life's beginning and we never noticed they were there We can balance at the brink of wisdom, never recognizing that we've arrived Loving spirits will live together; we're all swimming to the other side^^^ |

Subject: Lyr Add: WE ARE ONE (Pat Humphries) From: momnopp Date: 18 Nov 03 - 07:31 PM Here is a link to We Are One and the words: WE ARE ONE (Pat Humphries) Verse Smiling face, outstretched hand Through disputes small and grand We will lay down our guns We are one In the rage, through the war We have shared pain before In our grief when it's done We are one, We are one Chorus Where the earth touches sky We are born, we all die Where the clear waters run We are one We are one Verse 2 When the light touches land Over sea, over sand When each day has begun We are one When the rock wears away And the tide rolls and sways By the moon, by the sun We are one, We are one Chorus Where the earth touches sky We are born, we all die Where the clear waters run We are one We are one Verse 3 In the soft of the night We are learning not to fight In our hearts, in the drum We are one In the birth of a child Through the fierce and the mild In our daughters and sons We are one, We are one Chorus Where the earth touches sky We are born, we all die Where the clear waters run We are one We are one ©2000 Pat Humphries Moving Forward Music, BMI According to the site, Pat won the Grand Prize (Folk category) at the 2002 John Lennon Songwriting Contest. This is the result of a pretty simple Google search, initially on "We Are One" and then "search within results" on "Pat Humphries." She's a local (Washington DC area) and she sells a nice tee-shirt that bears her signature phrase, "Peace Salaam, Shalom" (the latter two written in their respective non-roman alphabets.) Peace, JudyO |

I came across this song today. I thought it was very pertinent for this week. |
Subject: RE: Pat Humphries songs From: Pamber Date: 28 Feb 21 - 12:25 PM I love the lyrics of her song "Heroes" but cannot find a decent recording. Anyone got a link please? |
Subject: ADD: Heroes (Ann Reed) From: Joe Offer Date: 28 Feb 21 - 01:03 PM Hmmm. I'm finding a song titled "Heroes" that appears to have been written by Ann Reed and may have been performed by Pat Humphries. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENLdKMA5Igk HEROES (Ann Reed) What can I learn from you In your lifetime, in what you've been through How'd you keep your head up and hold your pride In an insane world how'd you keep on tryin' One life can tell the tale That if you make the effort, you cannot fail By your life you tell me it can be done By your life's the courage to carry on CHORUS Heroes Appear like a friend To clear a path or light the flame As time goes, you find you depend On your heroes to show you the way What can I learn from you That I must do the thing I think I cannot do That you do what's right by your heart and soul It's the imperfections that make us whole One life can tell the tale That if you make the effort you cannot fail By your life you tell me it can be done By your life's the courage to carry on CHORUS Sojourner Truth, Eleanor Roosevelt Katharine Hepburn, Sally Ride Susan B.

Subject: RE: Pat Humphries songs From: Pamber Date: 28 Feb 21 - 01:56 PM Brilliant thanks I was looking for the wrong lady. That is eactly the song I meant. Senility rules Paul |
Subject: RE: Pat Humphries songs From: GUEST,# Date: 01 Mar 21 - 08:03 AM Pamber, you may not have been looking for the wrong lady. I saw something on Google (I have lost the link and can't find it now) where about 18 of Pat Humphries' songs were listed and only 17 of the lot were available for play. The 18th was titled "Heroes" but it seemed to have been 'taken down'. So, I suspect that PH did do the song but for some reason it's no longer available. If I find it again I'll post the link here. |
Subject: RE: Pat Humphries songs From: GUEST,# Date: 01 Mar 21 - 08:20 AM Found it with a Google of: Pat Humphries, songs I cannot post a link to it (I tried and it doesn't work)--and my memory is shot. There are 28 songs listed (not 18) across the top of the page that displays, and Heroes is the very last. Also, I'm not sure they were available for play. However, it doesn't say what album/CD it's from, so I suspect it was there at some point but isn't now. So, I don't know what all that means, and my guesses about it could well be out to lunch. I hope I haven't confused the issue. But it looks like she did do the song. |
Subject: RE: Pat Humphries songs From: Joe Offer Date: 01 Mar 21 - 02:23 PM Yeah, I'm almost sure I've heard Pat Humphries sing "Heroes." She's quite a nice person, by the way. Hey, I was even on stage with her - twice, I think...but I'm not sure she even noticed me or would remember me. -Joe- |
Subject: ADD: Baptism of Fire (Julie Snow) From: Joe Offer Date: 06 Feb 23 - 04:08 PM Baptism of Fire (Julie Snow) ©1979 Julie Snow Music, BMI Baptism of fire, I never knew what that meant and now the flames are rising higher I guess I haven't seen anything yet because they're coming down around me and I am rising up like a phoenix from the ashes wings against the blue the only way out is through. Forest of fury, kindling of fear Oh, see how dark the woods have grown after all these years and now they're coming down around me and I am rising up like a lily from the shadows glistening and perfumed the only way out is through. All the detours taken never lead you home What a maze you find yourself in and still alone. Oh, you thought it should be easy so the truth eluded you the only way out is through. Baptism of fire, all happening within illusion burns like tall grass in the wild and reckless wind and now they're coming down around me and I am rising up like a great bell resurrected ringing loud and true the only way out is through. All the detours taken never lead you home What a maze you find yourself in and still alone. Oh, you thought it should be easy so the truth eluded you the only way out is through. https://emmasrevolution.com/track/1288850/baptism-of-fire |
