Celebrating Christmas in Stories & Song! As a new mom, I'm excited to share special songs about my bundle of joy including "Welcome Baby" that I co-wrote with the amazing Karen Drucker & a xmas song or two. I'll be joined by my dear friend & stellar vocalist/artist/vocal coach (he's my teacher), Gerald White! Join me for what I hope will be the first of monthly musical concerts online :)

Performance @ Dallas Center for Spiritual Living. Kumbaya is jam-packed with concepts from the movie "The Secret"...it's about the law of attraction bay-bee! Video edits courtesy of Dick Williamson.
KUMBAYA by Faith Rivera & Zuriani
Arise from my peaceful sleeping
Flip back my locks & my worrying
A thought of gratefulness is seeping
Encompassing my whole being
I will not confess I am any less - I'm a creator
Hey it's up to me - I'm counting 1,2,3 & "Poof" it's there
It goes something like this...
All that you think, say, & do
Shapes the world with your truth
(KUMBAYA, Thank You God)
Accept & bless all you've made my friend
Tomorrow you can choose again
(KUMBAYA, Thank You God, KUMBAYA)
I used to pray make real my dreamings
Fill my needs, fix my longing
My thoughts of lack shot out into space duplicating
My "not enoughness" into being
If you come from need then need will be the seed of your story
If you come from faith then you can create (with no fear) - oh ours is the glory...forever
(double chorus)
KUMBAYA, Thank You Allah, Thank Buddah, Thank You Krishna
KUMBAYA, Thank You Brother, Thank You Sister, Thank You Nature
KUMBAYA, Thank You Allah, Thank Buddah, Thank You Krishna
KUMBAYA, Thank You Brother, Thank You Sister, Thank You Nature
If you come from need then need will be the seed of your story
If you come from faith then everything will be great - ours is the glory...forever
(double chorus)
KUMBAYA, Thank You Allah, Thank Buddah, Thank You Krishna
KUMBAYA, Thank You Brother, Thank You Sister, Thank You Nature
KUMBAYA, Thank You Oprah, Thank You Mother, Thank You Dali Lama
KUMBAYA, Thank You Teacher, Holy Chakra, Thank You Papa
KUMBAYA, Thank You God, KUMBAYA
well - i like this song - but it's not the kumbaya i remember. is kumbaya a group or something? i was looking for the song. if you'd sung the actual song in this style it would have been great!

hey lilo :) yeah it's definitely not like the traditional "kumbaya" song. it's a song that just came to me - don't even know where i got "kumbaya" from, but i used it to mean gratefulness & honoring of all paths. thanks for checking it out :)
