Welcome to the revelation
Today, let’s rock it into some revelation . . .
GOOD PEOPLE Ben Lovett, Ted Dwane, Marcus Mumford, Pharrell L. Williams And I'm done being tired, so right now I'm inspired (Welcome to the revelation) I was once underwater and now I'm on fire (Welcome to the revelation) And I feel it in the air that Mother Earth ain't steady Feel so alive even though times are deadly And in my soul (get ready) Something is stirring now (get ready) And I'm not worried (get ready) You better get ready to see now (get ready) Good people been down for so long And now it's like the sun is rising Good people been down for so long And now I see the sun is rising Long was the night, but you know we've been dreaming (Welcome to the revelation) The city's getting loud 'cause the mountains are screaming (Welcome to the revelation) When you've been through it all and it won't get no worse And the first shall be lost and the lost shall be first Chorus Welcome to the revelation (Welcome to the revelation) Welcome to the revelation The sun is (the sun is) rising (rising) It's coming, it's on it's way So nothing (nothing) tonight is (tonight is) Getting in the way (alright) . . .
(My thanks to Mumford & Sons and Pharrell Williams.)

THURSDAY: Poetry Pick-Me-Up (Zoom, 12:00-1:00PM Central, at this link)
I didn’t know who Pharrell Williams was until I saw the doc film he financed about his uncle’s gospel choir in the Virginia tidewater. I got to see the diverse sources os passion that brought all kinds of people to try out for a choir, without pay. Singing for sheer joy; what a lift!
Thanks Phyllis, this is another keeper for me. It represents "Hope" at a time when it appears to me that a handful of people are about to turn this world upside down. So I'll keep this as a reminder to keep hope alive!
