Be Still

	Dennis Wilson sets to music a meditative lyric written by Stephen John Kalinich for the song "Be Still". The melody is childlike in its simplicity, and the lyric is faux-profound in a very 1960's way, but the remarkable feature of this song is Dennis Wilson's vocal, which is nakedly vulnerable and, in a word, amazing.

Lyrics

You know, you know you are
Be still and know you are
Your life is meant for joy
It's all so deep within, oh

Your life is beautiful
A seed becomes a tree
A mountain into a sky
This life is meant to be, oh

Now is the time life begins
Take that simple path
And love will set you free
Live in harmony
And love will set you free, oh

You know, you know you are
Be still and know you are
You know, you know you are
Be still and know you are
