6. Be Open

« PreviousNext »
Song Be Open
Music & Words Debbie Nargi-Brown
Composed in 2017
Lyrics

Be open for something wonderful to happen
Be open to the possibility (x2)

Aiye Aiye Aiye, Aiye Aiye Aiye (x2)

Notes To be open to the possibility of something wonderful happening seems both counter-intuitive in the middle of the pandemic and multiple crises, and also surprisingly comforting and hopeful. And indeed, wonderful things are happening in addition to what's hard and perplexing and dismaying. I love how I feel lighter after singing this -- I wonder how you feel?
Debbie said she wrote this song to help a couple people in her life that were going through difficult times. She says it is a great song to help manifest a dream into being -- you can think of something you want to come into your life and sing that into being, to embody it as you sing and to really see it happening, to call it in for yourself.

Songwriter info Debbie Nargi-Brown started singing and dancing on the day she was born! A gifted community song leader, an award-winning dance teacher, and a talented songwriter, she offers her songs with love, compassion, and the hope of bringing joy and healing to others.

Bringing people together in dance and song is one of her greatest joys in life!
