what are they doing in heaven today,
where sin and sorrow are all done away?
peace abounds like a river, they say.
what are they doing there now?
i'm thinking of friends whom i used to know,
who lived and suffered in this world below
but they've gone off to heaven, but i want to know
what are they doing there now?
oh, what are they doing in heaven today,
where sin and sorrow are all done away?
peace abounds like a river, they say.
but what are they doing there now?
there's some whose hearts were burdened with care
they paid for their moment with fighting and tears
but they clung to the cross trembling in fear
but what are they doing there now?
what are they doing in heaven today,
where sin and sorrow are all done away?
peace abounds like a river, they say.
what are they doing there now?
and there's some whose bodies were full of disease
physicians and doctors couldn't give them much ease
but they suffered 'til death brought a final release
but what are they doing there now?
what are they doing in heaven today,
where sin and sorrow are all done away?
peace abounds like a river, they say.
what are they doing there now?
there's some who were poor and often despised
they looked up to heaven with tear-blinded eyes
while people were heedless and deaf to their cries
but what are they doing there now?
what are they doing in heaven today,
where sin and sorrow are all done away?
peace abounds like a river, they say.
what are they doing there now?
what are they doing in heaven today,
where sin and sorrow are all done away?
peace abounds like a river, they say.
what are they doing there now?

since the friends first met, various journeys brought them to the congo, burkina faso, the middle east and the american west
coast. traces of these musical epicenters find their way back into the music.
SIRKUS twists the djembe with spaced out synth, blues with maroccan gnaua rhythm and forms an earthquake for mind and soul.
