Judy Collins - Singing Lessons CAPO: 6th Fret [Intro] God of the rivers and the waterfalls God of thunder and lightning God of the plains and the mountains Of rainbows and prairies God of birth and death of love and hope [Chorus] God of sun and moon God of ocean tides You who drive the stars You of perfect light Teach me how to sing [Verse 1] And it came to pass on a cloudy night That I found myself lost in the dark And the wind blew cold and I was afraid And if love were lost how would I live [Verse 2] You were like some mist in the fading light And my broken dreams wept in the night Where was all the love we had known before In this sea of tears would I reach the shore? [Chorus] God of sun and moon God of ocean tides You who drive the stars You of perfect light Teach me how to sing [Verse 3] I was on my knees I was at the end There was nothing left I would never mend When I heard a song in the waves that tossed Death is not the end there is nothing lost [Chorus] God of sun and moon God of ocean tides You who drive the stars You of perfect light Teach me how to sing [Bridge] Music of the spheres through eternity Say that through your tears you will always see Say the more you lose that the more you own And the more you love that the more you’ve sown Say the pain you feel opens up your heart [Verse 4] Where the swallows flew there was once a cloud Now the sun was bright and the river smiled And I heard you say "Death is just a dream Make your songs again you must always sing" [Chorus] God of sun and moon God of ocean tides You who drive the stars You of perfect light Teach me how to sing God of everything Teach me how to sing God of everything

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque une quête spirituelle, où le narrateur se tourne vers Dieu pour trouver une lumière dans l'obscurité. Elle aborde des thèmes de perte, de peur et d'espoir, tout en soulignant la présence réconfortante de la divinité à travers les éléments naturels. Dans les moments de désespoir, le chant devient une forme de guérison, rappelant que la vie continue même face à la mort et la souffrance. La voix de Dieu s'exprime comme une invitation à renouer avec la joie et à redécouvrir le pouvoir de la musique et de l'amour, même après les épreuves. C'est un appel à chanter malgré les douleurs, à retrouver la paix intérieure et à se laisser guider par la lumière divine.
