This song is going to be on the next album.

Lyrics:

Sometimes she speaks without making a sound.

Sometimes she screams so loud it shakes the clouds.

Oh, but she’s right here now.

Sometimes I feel like a ghost in this town.

Sometimes I feel like an angel flying around.

Oh, but I’m right here now.

Sometimes he floats away from the light.

Sometimes he shines like a star in the night.

Oh, but he’s right here now.

a song-prayer for our President’s safety from Threshold Choir founder, Kate Munger

Lyrics: “May the depth and strength of our dreams lift you up and keep you safe.  May the depth and strength of our hope keep you whole.” – Kate Munger, Founder of Threshold Choirs

The all-women Threshold Choirs honor the ancient tradition of singing at the bedsides of people who are struggling: some with living, some with dying. The voice, as the original human instrument, is a true and gracious vehicle for compassion and comfort. The choirs provide opportunities for women to share the sacred gifts of their voices at life’s thresholds.

When we are invited to a bedside, we visit in small groups. We invite families and caregivers to join us in song or to participate by listening. We choose songs to respond to musical taste, spiritual direction, and physical capacity. The songs may include rounds, chants, lullabies, hymns, spirituals, and choral music.

The service is our gift; there is no charge. We gratefully accept donations for our ongoing expenses.
