Pete Seeger – My Father’s Mansion SONG

Pete Seeger

I

I have great admiration for this man, I suggest that everyone can find information about this on the internet.
A folk singer, guitarist, prolific songwriter and activist. Transitioned to the other realms in 2014.
Listened to and watched a lot via YouTube and iTunes store, among others.

Herewith a very special song:
My Fathers’s Mansion

Inspiration for the song came from the Bible, John 14:2.

As a follower of Plumvillage and Thich Nhat Hanh, a sincere advice from this man is: ‘Open all doors and don’t close any door’.

 

My Father’s mansion has many rooms

Have room for all his children

As long as we do share His love

And see that all are free

 

And see that all are free to grow

And see that all are free to know

And free to open or to close

The door of their own room

 

What is a room without a door?

Which sometimes locks or stand ajar?

What is a room without a wall?

To keep out sight and sound from all?

 

And dwellers in each room should have

The right to choose their own design

And color schemes to suit their own

Though differing from mine

 

Yes, and each door has its own design

And color schemes to suit their own

And those who’d want them all the same

Don’t understand the human game

 

My father’s mansion has many rooms

Have room for all of His children

If we do but share in His love

And see that all are free

 

The choice is ours to share this Earth

With all its many joys abound

Or to continue as we have

And burn God’s mansion down
