Get together

Chet Powers

Love is but a song we sing
and fear’s the way we die.
You can make the mountains ring
or make the angels cry.
Though the bird is on the wing
and you may not know why.

C’mon people, now
smile on your brother,
ev’rybody get together,
try to love one another right now.

Some will come and some will go
and we shall surely pass.
When the one that left us here
returns for us at last.
We are but a moment’s sunlight
fading in the grass.

C’mon people…

If you hear the song we sing
you will understand.
You hold the key to love and fear
in your trembling hand.
Just one key unlocks them both,
it’s there at your command.

C’mon people…
