A DRUM CIRCLE and the BEAT GOES ON...
Sound the drum and feel the vibe
Echo the rhythms and feel alive
All joining in and becoming one
Each feels the beat but it’s just begun
Make a joyful noise and shake something
Improvise and make your heart sing
First softly then louder, just listen and be
Sounds flow like the endless tides of the sea
No longer is one special or different
Sharing rhythm is the message sent
Before long the circle is complete
Everyone happily tapping feet
Pound the drum and stress is not so much
Feel the power of the hand to touch
Each enters this circle of time and space
Each one departs as a member of the human race
