ABOUT THIS SONG As I served as music director for Unity Church of San Luis Obispo, California from 1991-2005, I had many opportunities to write songs for the Sunday Morning talks. This was penned for the Easter Service. It is about the celebration of life that is inspired and revealed when one lets go of the struggles, and the thoughts, and forms. The feel, though it is a 6/8 Jazz Waltz, feels sort of 5/4 at times...like the Dave Brubeck song, Take Five. I wrote it on a beautiful Kawai grand piano that was a part of that church. Sure do miss it... |
SONG LYRICS: RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW Time to be singing, time to be dancing All the people say hallelujah Voices together, hearts so wide open Love reigns upon us, right here, right now Spring, she sings new life, a rainbow of color Fragrance and beauty, love all around Stand up, let go, set your intentions Freedom and power, right here, right now Lay down those crosses and burdens Peel the worn out garment, let it fall to the ground Lay down the crosses and burdens Resu- resu- resurrection Let Spirit resound Release the pressure, release the stressors Release the thinking, my friend break away Reclaim your essence, reclaim your power Reclaim your birthright, right here right now Chorus Yes, to the freedom Yes, to the power Yes, to the love I am right here, right now |
