Lyrics

This grief I feel
it isn't mine to hold on to
this grief I feel
it isn't mine to keep, though I might want to
Pass it on,
Move it along;
The life of this Gift is in its Moving

This joy I feel it isn't mine to hold on to
This joy I feel it isn't mine to keep though I might want to
Pass it on
Move it along
The life of this Gift is in its Moving

This sadness I feel it isn't mine to hold on to
This sadness I feel it isn't mine to keep though I might want to
Pass it on
Move it along
The life of this Gift is in its Moving
_________

For song sharing:

This (insert emotion) I feel
It isn't mine to hold on to
this (insert emotion) I feel
it isn't mine to keep
though I might want to
Pass it on
Move it along
The life of this Gift is in its Moving

(Last line of each verse inspired by a concept expressed by Robin Wall Kimmerer in her book Braiding Sweetgrass)
