fdS25-26. How O How?/Death is only

These two songs use the same Israeli tune: El Ginat Egoz. It's a little tricky, but I like the feel of the way it fits my words.
Hear 'How O How' here!

fdS25. How o how ca-an we
be more acu-utely aware
of whate-e-e-e-e-e-ever is
without indifference or ju-u-u-udgment
but wi-ith our hearts all on fire?

These two songs don't necessarily go together, but I like the way both feel with this tune. This is my only piece (so far) on 'death'. [You may sing it at my funeral if you feel so inclinded.]

fdS26. Death is o-only when
o-our lo-o-onely breath
slips finally from our for-or-or-ormer form,
like a bather, bound to-o soak a-a-and to rest
in a tem-empting tub of wa-a-ater warm!

If you have difficulty fitting the words to the tune, please let me know (rex.barger@hwcn.org) & I'll see if I can record the 2nd song, too.
