Another member of our singing group (Jill Mitchell) wrote the words for the second verse. This is my own performance (as the multitrack choir dwsChorale) 1. If there's anybody here like weepin' Mary Call upon your Jesus and he'll draw nigh If there's anybody here like weepin' Mary Call upon your Jesus and he'll draw nigh Oh glory, glory Hallelujah Glory be to my God who rules on high [traditional] 2. "They have stole away my Lord" said weepin' Mary "And I know not where they have laid him down" "Yes they've stole away my Lord" said weepin' Mary "And I know not where they have laid him down" "Oh Mary!"

Bandits ambush others on the road. They get wealth, but they stay in one place. Lovers keep moving, never the same, not for a second! What makes others grieve, they enjoy! When they look angry, don't believe their faces. It's spring lightning, a joke before the rain. They chew thorns thoughtfully along with pasture grass. Gazelle and lioness, having dinner. Love is invisible except here, in us. Sometimes I praise love; sometimes love praises me. Love, a little shell somewhere on the ocean floor, opens its mouth. You and I and we, those imaginary beings, enter that shell as a single sip of seawater. Texts by Rumi, translated by Coleman Barks © 1995 Coleman Barks. Used by permission. Performed by the Millennium Consort, Martin Neary, conductor, and the Pomona College Choir, Donna Di Grazia, director. Water Ruminations is a setting of six...    less
