Bridge the Divide Part 2

Heath Sanders - Common Ground (Lyric Video)
www.youtube.com

This is the second in a five-part “Bridge the Divide” series that showcases efforts by artists to find common ground.

Today we showcase country singer Heath Sanders’ performance of “Common Ground,” part of a larger collection of his music that bears the same name. This video has been viewed more than 200,000 times.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxOLR65IIyg

The lyrics find the commonalities that bind us together as Americans:

We're all weak, we're all strong

We're all right and we're all wrong

And when time runs out

We all end up

Losin' all these labels that we wear

So we can find it here

Or we can find it there

'Cause we're all on a different journey

We're all findin' our own way

We're all livin', we're all learnin'

From the cradle to the grave

We're all weak, we're all strong

We're all right and we're all wrong

And when time runs out

We all end up in common ground
