Saving Grace

This song "Saving Grace" is my first little foray into gospel music. Everyone in today's "resistance" against Trump and his countless follies should be aware of the huge debt that progressive causes owe to the Black Churches and also to groups like the Quakers, Mennonites, etc. Almost every religion has its progressives as well as its fundamentalists. The Sufism of the "whirling dervishes" (pictured here) is sometimes called the religion of love. A little offering to help people keep their spirits up! Peace to all! Please like, comment, and share to spread the message. Lyrics: Saving Grace I want to run, Run to salvation, I can’t make sense of this world no more I want to run, Run to salvation, I can’t make sense of this world no more You can argue about feminist politics You can argue about class consciousness You can argue about fascists and racists You can argue about the one true way You can argue theology and ideology You can split hairs, you can chew the fat Use any words you want to, I promise you half the world won’t see it like that It doesn’t matter what you say The only real saving grace in this world is love The only real saving grace in this world is love You can attack from the front You can sit and quibble You can be brutally honest You can play the middle You can play first or second fiddle You can be subtle, you can pose riddles You can fill a lot of words with empty air But you’ll never find the real truth in there… I want to run, run to salvation I can’t make sense of this world no more Run Run Run Run Run Run to salvation You can look for salvation in a God above You can look for it in the one you love You can try and find it in a job done well You can look for it in some books that tell… …they might tell you The only real saving grace in this world is love The only real saving grace in this world is love Love is what makes everything What it really is Love is what holds everything together Love is what gives weight to gold Love is what gives lightness to the feather You don’t need to be real educated You don’t even need to be real clever to find… The only real saving grace in this world is love The only real saving grace in this world is love I want to run, Run Run Run Run to salvation, I can’t make sense of this world no more I want to run, Run to salvation, I can’t make sense of this world no more but I know… The only real saving grace in this world is love The only real saving grace in this world is love The only saving grace in this world is love The only saving grace in this world is love
