The Great Divide

I wonder if or when humankind will finally rise high enough to step across all of the Great Divides that have been created around us?

Not crazy about the imagery in the video but it was the best I could find. The words to this song never fail to move me…

♫♪♫♪♫♪♫

While politicians lie and cheat
to get to higher ground,
we follow them like sheep
and salute them as we drown…

And you whose silence costs your soul
Learn to speak or dig your hole
Tomorrow’s here and it won’t wait
No time to hesitate…

Come good people and gather here
You who still hold freedom dear
Step across the waters
Bring your sons and daughters
Some will sink and some will swim
Some will walk on the water again
Some will rise and some will fall
Each one will hear the call…

Janis Ian
