Two-Handed Heart (for the class of 2015 MMS 8th Grade Choir) - Chris Janowiak

A song telling the story of how 104 people created something beautiful.



a great divide
between us all
a story yet to be told
an uncertain goal

but we embraced the change
oh with our arms out open wide
carried on with our heads held high
our face to the sky, a river alive

you'll find a way for you to feel the weight of the world in your heart

we've shattered every expectation
oh when the bar seemed to high to reach
it's our own belief that success is our only option here
failure is not

we will find a way for you to see that the weight of the world
is not upon your back but that it rests in the palms of your hands

(chorus)
its bigger than
notes on a page
us on the stage
one hundred will call
this family
a two handed heart
we all have a part
to start something new
we love what we do

we will find a way for you to see that the weight of the world
is not upon your back but that it rests in the palms of your hands

we measure our years by the tears in our eyes
the love that we share, the time of our lives
and as we gather round to say our goodbyes
the words across our spines

they say remember the days that you did not live
and dont let today be one of them
fill up your lungs and throw down your heart
beyond these four walls

you'll find a way for you to see that the weight of the world
is not upon your back but it rests in the palms of your hands

(chorus)

now you've poured out your hearts and created something beautiful
