Simply
Moving
Living
in the day to day, caught up in the way you make your living
Watching your life slip away, knowing Father Time is unforgiving
Maybe you don’t know yet how the problems of this world might
be resolved
And so you sit and shake your head, instead of getting actively involved
But
simply moving sets in motion
Get the forces of nature on your side
And if faith can move a mountain
Making waves can turn the tide
You
know that there are mighty men with wealth and power far beyond your
measure
But there are also multitudes whose hidden hearts are like a buried
treasure
If you could communicate, you’d find that you are really not
alone
And hearts that come together are the strongest force this world has
ever known
And
simply moving sets in motion
Get the forces of nature on your side
And if faith can move a mountain
Making waves can turn the tide
There
are many hollow men, men of greed and selfish calculation
But they are superficial men; they are not the lifeblood of the nation
Only if you let them can they dominate, and weaken, and corrupt
But they tremble when they think this volcano that they stand on might
erupt
And simply moving sets in motion
Get the forces of nature on your side
And if faith can move a mountain
Making waves will surely turn the tide
