Joe asked me to post this-- it is another song I shared at Camp Harmony with enthusiastic results...


WE ARE THE ONES                Laura Sandage 2003
3/4 meter
(A sing-along anthem for the non-movement toward non-duality)

CHORUS:
We are the ones who stand hand in hand
Where the edge of the land meets the sea
We are the hearts that open and sing
Let every heart know it is free        

VERSE 1
Are you Buddhist? (Yes) Are you Christian? (Yes)
Are you Jewish? (Yes again)
Are you pagan? (Yes) Agnostic? (Yes)
Tell me, who the hell are you again?

CHORUS

VERSE 2
Are you followers? (No) Believers? (No)
Don't you stick by some gospel or guru? (No)
Are you worried? (No) Don't you fear for this world?
Don't you need some brave leader to guide you? (No)

CHORUS

VERSE 3
How can you tell with certainty
Who's good from who's bad, right from wrong?
Well, we don't think that matters so much
We just listen inside for the song, 'cause...

CHORUS

VERSE 4
If you want to join, there's no card to sign
No ritual to perform
Just look in your heart, that's where you start
Let your searching be tender and warm

CHORUS
