We are part
We are part
We are part
We are part
We are part of One Long Song
One Long Song
One Long Song
One Long Song

Everything was here before me
One Long Song
Every note was sung
One Long Song
Every word was written into melodies
And hung across an interval
A pause that draws the heart out with a sound

We are part
We are part
We are part of One Long Song
One Long Song
One Long Song

Is this song new?
Is this song new?
Is this song new?
Is this song new?

It is not new but you are new
And when you sing and I sing too
We make it ours
We make it here
We make it strong
Strong
And now
Now
And clear

We are part of One Long Song
We are part
We are part of One Long Song
One Long Song
One Long Song

How did our song begin to be?
How did our song begin to be?

At first one voice
At first one voice
That ached to learn
That ached to learn

Sought out a space to grow and earn a spot inside this song
And other voices came along and learned to listen
Learned to stay
Learned to study

Learned to play
Learned to play
Learned to play
Learned to play

We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
Part of One Long
Part of One Long Song

And as our choir began to grow
We sought to learn what one can know
How all the greats, the late composers
Masters
Singers
Writers
Muses
Learned the way our body chooses
How to sing
And what to sing
And when to sing
And why to sing

We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part
We are part
We are part
We are part of One Long Song

And one day I will sing no more
And some young hands will hold this score
And it will carry from before
And it will carry from before
And it will carry from before
And it will carry from before

The sound of life
Of life
The sound of now
The sound of now
Of now
Of now
The sound of here
The sound of here
The sound of here
Of here
Of here
The sound of us
The sound of us
The sound of us
The sound of us
The sound of us
The sound of us
The sound of us
The sound of us
The sound of us
The sound of us
The sound of us
Sound of us

Everything was here before me
Everything was here before me
Every note was sung
Every word
Every word was written into melodies
And hung across an interval
A pause
A pause that draws the heart out with a sound
We are part
With sound

We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song

We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
We are part of One Long Song
