lyrics

All, all of the emotions
That lies within the heart of the humankind
It lasts never, never, never more than a split second

I call, I call on all the Buddhas and the Jesuses,
And the Allahs and the Shaktis,
And the Dalai Lamas, and the Barongs and the Rangdas,
I call on them, I call on them and beg them
To deflect our own solitudes
And our fallen hopes
And to temper our grief.

Oh, power of another kind
Bring me to the Gate
Give me your love
And your care
Give me your love
And your care

Chosen kindness
I chose your kindness
Love is the highest
Love is quiet

The palaces and the golden streets
At the carnival we’re your refugees.

I know that on the other side
Is your eternal joy

I see the gate!
I see the gate!

I’ll leave this
There ain’t no mercy in my brain,
Give me your stream
A passage through to the golden dreams

I gotta change
Oh, my God, I’ve gone insane
And oh man,
I see my heart it bleeds
Oh my love has turned to pain
And now my pain just calls the rain

I know that on the other side
Is your eternal joy

I call on St Peter
And I call on Vishnu
And I call on Sarah
And I call on Fatima

I hang out with John the Baptist
And we dance on the arches of Babylon
I said: I hang out with John the Baptist
And we dance on the arches of Babylon

Oh, Marcus Garvey, please
Tell me, tell me, tell me where we will go
And give me the strength
To carry on

Voices of the beloveds
Beyond the bounds

Gentle breeze, gentle breeze
Keep me down on my knees

Amen
