Unconditional Love

lyrics

The Giver
(Chorus)
Joy in the heart of the giver
Peace to the one who receives
Love is a two way street. X2
(Verse 1)
​We can't afford no can't afford to not
Love our brothers man
Love your brother man
Love your brother man
​We can't afford no can't afford to not
Love our sister man
Love your sister man
Love your sister man
Our selfish way's
imprison us, imprison us
Our selfish way's
imprison us, imprison us
Our selfish way's
imprison us, imprison us
and we cryin out to be free
So let your light shine
let your light shine
let your light shine
this little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
dive deep in the ocean (splash)
the ocean (splash)
we all one drop, in the ocean
dive deep in the ocean (splash)
the ocean (splash)
we all one drop, in the ocean
(Chorus)
Joy in the heart of the giver
Peace to the one who receives
Love is a two way street. X2
(Verse 2)
I've been a sojourner
I've been a grateful sojourner
​on the winding path for loooove
as long as I can remember
​tender, like a newborn child
splendor, of a loving smile
the heart inside us
imbued with love
becomes a treasure from above
a lump of coal
​to a heart of gold
a lump of coal
​to a heart of gold
somewhere over the rainbow
hear the songbird sing
love for the rain the Creator doth bring
spread you left wing
right wing
flash away like lightning.
(Chorus)
Joy in the heart of the giver
Peace to the one who receives
Love is a two way street. X2
(​Verse 3)
Boom clat da boom clat
Boom clat da boom clat (consistent chanting)
Beating of the drum, the drumbeat of the heart
Beating of the drum, the drumbeat of the heart
(​the fire fire)
Circles in the fire, circles in the fiyiyiya
​Circles in the fire, circles in the fiyiyiya
Beating of the drum, the drumbeat of the heart
Beating of the drum, the drumbeat of the heart
Circles in the fire, circles in the fiyiyiya
​Circles in the fire, circles in the fiyiyiya

His time in the studio prepared him for Rhythm Rug ... more
