about

Featuring Justin Hicks, Kenita Miller & Asa Baker Russell
Inspired by the great Jacqueline Novogratz I asked her for a phrase to inspire a young mind’s moral imagination, Jacqueline offered, “Listen with your whole entire body, not just your ears”

lyrics

I listen with my body not just my ears I Listen far away and near
I listen to myself and I listen to you I listen for the music too
I listen - listen - listen - listen - listen and I feel everything I hear I listen - listen - listen - listen - everybody far away and near
Listen 4 x 4
I listen to the sound of the rain kiss the earth And I hear the song of my birth
I listen to the sound of the sun kiss the earth And I hear the song of my birth
I listen with my heart and I listen with my bones I listen with my mind and my toes I listen with my fingers - my nose and my ears - I listen cause I know that I’m here
I listen! Listen 4 x 4
Listen - can you hear a butterfly dance? Very good! I knew you could!
Listen 4 x 4
I listen to the leaves dancing n the trees And the grass giggling in the breeze
