pfS36. To Be Alive!

This song comes out a new interest in church music that burst forth after VaticanII. I don't remember who wrote it but I love it because the tune is so appropriate to the content! I changed only a few words in the verses to make them ring more true in my own heart!
Hear it here!


To be alive & feeling free & to have every one in our family to be alive in every way! O how great it is to be alive!
(1) Everyday there's a newness: something exciting to do! The dawn of life is upon us, so let's let our gladness shine through!
(2) Wake up, filled with new sunshine & the darkness can no longer stay! For each new generation can be a light for the whole world each day!
(3) Tell the whole population, the time has now come to revive! We must all relearn the sensation that comes from being fully alive!
(4) Ring the bell of new freedom! Help one another to live! For the real joy of living comes when we can forgive!!
