From the recording Mystic Life
Funky tune featuring Andy Jacques on bass guitar and Colin Francis on guitar. Respect was written at rehearsal by the choir. Respect for all Life is a key Buddhist concept.
Lyrics
Respect
(Words by Many Treasures Chorus)
Respect for the person, without a home,
Respect the individual, for not being a clone
Respect our shared humanity
Respect our eternal dignity
Respect yourself
That's the key
Respect yourself
How hard can it be?
Respect yourself, turn it around
Take your doubts and fears, to the lost and found
Respect yourself, you deserve the best
Negativity, give it a rest
Respect yourself
That's the key
Respect yourself
How hard can it be?
Sometime, somewhere, somebody can change
Caring, standing
With them in the rain
Help them make the change
