Hymn Singing - Let Us Share With You

Let Us Share With You
Music & Lyrics by: Chong Su Lim
==========================

To all of you who have come so far
We'll show you a guiding hand
So come with us and hand in hand
We'll follow the Buddha's Path

The Noble Way we have to tread
With help along the way
And we'll carry the torch of Truth
To reach the other shore

Chorus:
=======

Let us share with you
All the joy we have found
From Lord Buddha who has shown us the way

Let us share with you
All the joy we have found
From Lord Buddha who has shown us the way

(Repeat entire song)

Like the seeds of the Lotus, we are
With the sunshine and rain we'll grow
Standing virtuously above the muddy water
soon a pure white lotus we shall be

The pure nature in us,
He realized with the Dharma
he shines the Path
Carefully and patiently, to us He shows the way.

Like the seeds of the Lotus, we are
With the sunshine and rain we'll grow
Standing virtuously above the muddy water
soon a pure white lotus we shall be

A great Teacher to us He is
With love and kindness He guides us
Gone are the impurities
One by one perfect Buddhas we shall be

Breathing in, breathing out,
Breathing in, breathing out,
I am blooming as a flower,

And I feel there is space,
Deep inside of me,
I am free, I am free, I am free.
