Since 1974 when this song came out, it has always been one of my favorites. I found the CD the other day and listening to it, I finally rememebred why. You can listen to it here. I’m curious whether the words resonate with you. Looking back, I see they are very appropriate for me.
I have these moments
All steady and strong
I’m feeling so holy and humble
The next thing I know
I’m all worried and weak
And I feel myself
Starting to crumble.
The meanings get lost
And the teachings get tossed
And you don’t know what you’re
Going to do next.
You wait for the sun
But it never quite comes
Some kind of message comes
Through to you.
Some kind of message comes through.
And it says to you…
Chorus
Love when you can
Cry when you have to…
Be who you must
That’s a part of the plan
Await your arrival
With simple survival
And one day we’ll all understand…
