about
A song of remembering. Based on the Jewish prayer, "We Remember Them".
lyrics
We Remember Them
We remember them in the rising moon
We remember them in the mourning dove
When the waters rush upon the shore
We remember them, singing ever more
We remember them in the blowing wind
We remember in the rustling leaves
When the buds unfurl into the spring
We remember them, and we join to sing
We remember them in the fallen tree
We remember them in the candle flame
When the blue of the sky opens wide
We remember them and keep their songs alive
And they, too, shall live
As they are woven into us.
We remember them in the rising moon
We remember them in the mourning dove
When the waters rush upon the shore
We remember them, singing ever more
