Songs of Innocence & Experience (mindfulness remix)
in the main by William Blake

Joy & Woe are woven fine
A clothing for the soul divine
For under every grief and pine
Runs a joy with silken twine

He who shuns a passing sorrow
Invites three to call tomorrow
But he who welcomes Sorrow on his step
Lives a life without regret

It is right it should be so
For we were made for Joy & Woe
And when this we rightly know
Thro’ the World we safely go

She who binds to herself a joy
Does the wingèd Life destroy
But she who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity’s sun rise

It is right it should be so
For we were made for Joy & Woe
And when this we rightly know
Thro’ the World we safely go

Yes, thro' the World we safely go
