about

I wrote most of this song in 2007 in response to reading "Creating A World that Works for All" by Sharif Abdullah. The second verse came later after a group exercise highlighting the gap between rich and poor. I noticed our responses were either an urge to "fix it" or a sense of despair.Thankfully we have more than those two options. I am amazed at the increasing relevance of this song as world events and economic crises continue to unfold.

lyrics

There is enough, enough for everyone
There is enough as we remember we are one.

Look around you, the mess is not hard to find
Empty faces, wars and toxic places
A deep divide between have and have not
Two sides of a coin
Pain of too much, pain of too little
Our system's breaking down
Yet...

(chorus)

A strong urge to fix it all
Or give up from overwhelm
Scarcity thinking, ruled by fear, the clock is ticking
Why do I play so small when
I've got gifts to share just like my sister over there
As we give and receive, build community
We will break down the walls
'Cause...

(chorus)

The mentality of lack is all around
Yet abundance truly does abound

(chorus)

So let the Light within you shine
Awaken your heart's compassion
Build a bridge to tomorrow
For the sake of the children

(chorus)
