Lyrics

We Must Love (Little Niles)
Music by Randy Weston
Lyric by Marianne Solivan

Now and then I see the world spinning to insanity
What was right now is lost to selfishness and vanity.
When we lose our way, we drift into the night
we don't know all the wrong from all the right,
so quickly we can't see the righteous from mis-'ry.

I get lost in thinking of my own self as meaningless
Letting go of the strength I could have used to make a change.
Feeling a relief deciding to give in,
and never seeing how this all could end
a voice deep within me speaks out so clearly.

You have turned your back on hopefulness!
You must not let all the torment in!
You must search for love and all that's true,
Find the grace to share the best in you! each-ones your brother.

If we try, we can be the balm that soothes all of our fears.
Reaching out our palms to take their hands and dry their tears.
One by one our love ignites another’s light
Brightly shining in the dead of night.
We hold to each other, for each ones your brother
We must love, We must love.
