SINK or SWIM
(A poem about the crossroads of faith.) Chord pattern: C Am Dm G

SINK or SWIM

When life is full of cross-roads

Wherever you may be

They open up your eyes

And the choice is plain to see

Sink or swim, sink or swim.



When that cross-road is religion,
Just where do you belong?

Is it music or a mantra you prefer?

Or incense burning without song

Sink or swim, sink or swim


Hold on to it or let go

Work out your plan or plan to run

Speak out or be stay silent

Be ready or be done


Sink or swim, sink or swim.



When crossroads can’t be understood

Where will the answers be?

Then try to find a doctrine

And assess if it’s for me

Sink or swim, sink or swim.



And if you find the answers

Contentment you have found

Others seek your fortune

And hear your joyous sound.

Sink or swim, sink or swim.

Sink or swim, sink or swim.
