Somewhere the original harmony must exist,

hidden somewhere in the vast wilds.

In Earth's mighty firmament,

in the far reaches of swirling galaxies,

in sunshine, in a little flower,

in the song of a forest,

in the music of a mother's voice,

or in teardrops-

somewhere, immortality endures,

and the original harmony will be found.

How else could it have formed

in human hearts- music?

O Radiant Dawn, Splendour of eternal Light,

Sun of Justice: come, shine on those

Who dwell in darkness

and the shadow of death.

Isaiah had prophesied,

The people who walked in

darkness have seen the great light

Upon those who dwelt in the land of gloom

a light has shone. Amen.

Angels, where you soar

Up to God’s own light,

Take my own lost bird

On your hearts tonight;

And as grief once more

Mounts to heaven and sings,

Let my love be heard

Whispering in your wings.

Peanuts, peanuts, peanuts

So if you want something

enjoyable for your mouth

buy me a little bag of peanuts.

Little housewife don't sleep

without eating a little bag of peanuts.

They are so warm and delicious

that one can't ask for more.

Little housewife don’t let me go

because then you’ll be sorry

and it will be too late.

When the street is deserted

little housewife of my heart,

the peanut vendor sings his song

and if a girl hears my singing

she beckons from her balcony.

Give me some of your peanuts

because tonight I won’t

be able to go to sleep

without eating a bag of peanuts.

We can be together now and forever;

I love you, I love you.

And when I’m praying, I hear him saying

“I love you, I love you.”

People all over the world, they’re opening up,

they’re coming around

and they’re saying I love you,

I love you, I love you…

I see skies of blue and clouds of white,

bright, blessed day and dark, sacred night;

and I think to myself,

“What a wonderful world.”

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky,

are also on the faces of the people going by.

I see friends shaking hands,

saying, “How do you do?”

They’re really saying, “I love you.”

I hear babies cry, I watch them grow;

they’ll learn much more than I’ll ever know,

and I think to myself,

“What a wonderful world.”

We shall be known

by the company we keep

By the ones who circle round

to tend these fires

We shall be known

by the ones who sow and reap

The seeds of change, alive

from deep within the earth

It is time now,

it is time now that we thrive

It is time we lead

ourselves into the well

It is time now,

and what a time to be alive

In this Great Turning

we shall learn to lead in love

Love is a burning thing

And it makes a fiery ring

And bound by wild desire

I fell into a ring of fire

I fell into a burning ring of fire

I went down, down, down

and the flames went higher

And it burns, burns, burns

The ring of fire, the ring of fire

The taste of love is sweet

When hearts like ours meet

And I fell for you like a child

Oh, but the fire went wild

I fell into a burning ring of fire

I went down, down, down

and the flames went higher

And it burns, burn, burns

The ring of fire, the ring of fire

I ain’t got long to stay here,

When my work down here is done

an’ my race down here is run,

Then I’ll steal away home.

Steal away, steal away, steal away to Jesus.

Steal away, steal away home.

I ain’t got long to stay here.

My Lord, he calls me,

he calls me by the thunder.

The trumpet sounds within-a my soul.

I ain’t got long to stay here.

Steal away, steal away, steal away to Jesus.

Steal away, steal away home.

I ain’t got long to stay here.

Say her name. She cannot be forgotten by us.

Put her name in the air. Say her name.

Latasha Walton

She walked to watch you

with her head down low

She wondered if there's a way out of the blue

Who's gonna take her home this time

She knew that this time

wouldn't be the last time

There she waits

looking for a savior,

Someone to save her from her dying self

Always taking ten steps back

and one step forward,

She's tired, but she don't stop

She don't stop, she don't stop, she don't stop

She don't stop, she don't stop, she don't stop

Every day she stood,

hoping for a new light

She closed her eyes and

she heard a smile voice say

You don't stop, no, you belong to me

She cried, maybe it's too late

She don't stop, she don't stop, she don't stop

She don't stop, she don't stop, she don't stop

My heart be brave, and do not falter so,

Nor utter more that deep, despairing wail.

Thy way is very dark and drear I know,

But do not let thy strength and courage fail;

For certain as the raven-winged night

Is followed by the bright and blushing morn,

Thy coming morrow will be clear and bright;

’Tis darkest when the night is furthest worn.

Look up, and out, beyond, surrounding clouds,

And do not in thine own gross darkness grope,

Rise up, and casting off thy hind’ring shrouds,

Cling thou to this, and ever inspiring hope:

Tho’ thick the battle and tho’ fierce the fight,

There is a power [in] making for the right.

REFRAIN: You gotta put one foot in front of the other and lead with love,

Put one foot in front of the other and lead with love!

Don’t give up hope. You’re not alone,

Don’t you give up, keep moving on. [REFRAIN]

Lift up your eyes and don’t you despair.

Look up ahead, the path is there. [REFRAIN]

I know you’re scared, and I’m scared, too

But here I am right next to you! [REFRAIN]

Don’t give up hope. You’re not alone,

Don’t you give up, keep moving on. [REFRAIN]
