State of Independence Lyrics

I only know the Donna Summer version of this song but have loved it since it first came out. The way the music and words and Summer's voice build from about half way through to the joyous climax is wonderful. I'm an agnostic, but whenever I hear this song it always makes me feel I should return to my christian roots.

@DudleyHart Hi Dudley

@DudleyHart Great interpretation. I too love this gorgeous song. As you mentioned about your christian roots, there is a nice live version where Donna Summer also adds a section of her own or perhaps from scriptures that lend credence to your thoughts. Also some great remix versions of her original as well. You may also read my comment for some more thoughts. Have a great day fellow music lover.
