A song of joy

I can hear a song
 a song of joy
 of praise
 of consciousness
 and love.

The song lives deep
 in my heart
 and in the heart
 of everyone I’m sure
 and I long to hear the song
 sung full and loud
 with all the hearts together
 and I long to hear
 the tender notes
 ringing out
 and for the song that lives
 in everyone to drown out
 all the other sounds
 and for there to be only
 this song being sung,
 this song of joy
 and praise
 and consciousness
 and love.
