There will come a day
When we transcend our pain
Until that day
Take it easy on yourself
There will come a day
When we can finally rest
Until that day
Take it easy on yourself
Love is the answer
Makes no difference what you have heard
Love is the answer
You have got to trust in the word

Good song. It really sounds to me like the lyrics are "Trust in the world" not "word" so I looked it up and there are conflicting opinions on that. I like "world" better because it's each other we have to trust in.
Thanks for sharing.
I'm with you on the World/Word issue. I sang it "world" until I looked it up a couple months ago.
I say go with your heart. We're either trusting in each other (world), the concept word Love, or "The Word" (Jesus, presumably). I can go with any of those.
Also, I just searched "the werd" and found out that WERD was the first black-owned radio station in the country.
On a serious note, "the wird" came up with this:
The wird is another central principle of the Sufi orders, which literally means a set portion of the Qur'an, or any other specific act of worship, which the worshipper commits himself to recite or perform, either at a particular time or occasion or on a regular basis. But according to Sufism, the wird, or dthikr, is a practice of repeating the name of Allah, and a set of invocations assigned to the murid by his shaikh or deputy as a liturgy of communion. They involve beseeching the dead, and seeking help from sources other than Allah.
With the style of the background music, maybe there's a connection here.
Again, I say let the listener choose his interpretation. Enjoy!
