[Oe List ...] lyrics for the song "Being" Is this it?

[Susan Fertig]

I believe the song title is Manha de Carnavale. Remember he sat on a bluff looking over the sea and "made the sun rise" with his song. And then the little kid, when Orfeu died, took the guitar and went out to keep the sun rising. Susan

BEING 
Tune: Theme from “Black Orpheus” 





My life is as 
Vast as the sea 
No boundaries no 
Floor beneath me. 

Yet as I look within 
No man has greater sin. 
I am the least of all 
I daily fall. 

But it’s then when I  
Doubt that I can 
I choose to be nothing  
For man. 

To die is my lot  
I live as if not 
With Paul 
I merge with all.    


I see then as  
Never before 
The secrets of  
heaven my store. 

With wisdom twice my age 
My life an open page 
Though with each insight 
Gain a deeper pain. 

Yet I live with the  
Lord on my side 
And wild intuition 
My guide. 

I’m sent as a sign 
The bread and the wine 
My form 
And virgin born.  


Then I act seeing 
Action is vain 
And accomplishments 
Never as gain. 

To only do is less 
Than forming humanness So mission I must be 
To set men free. 

Called to burn as an Undying flame 
Each word and each  
Gesture the Name. 

I must through life-loss 
An exalted cross 
My place 
Reveal his face  


Then the Lord through  
My life prays a prayer 
And my being is  
Filled being there. 

I can invent anew what 
All the saints once knew 
By being who I am  
I create man. 

And it’s no longer 
I who is seen 
But the Lord standing  
There in between. 

Finished as I die 
Held there between 
Sky and sod 
To save our God. 





Yes, it's there on the limbs of the worm‑eaten tree where 
the All and the Nothing can BE.

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.
