This Love, This Love
It's breaking my heart, wide open apart
And I am coming home to you
With this Love coming pouring through
This Love, This Love
It's teaching my mind, to be gentle, forgiving and kind
And I am coming home to you
With this Love coming pouring through
This Love, This Love
It's fixing my faith, in goodness and grace
And I am coming home to you
With this love coming pouring through
With this love coming pouring through

I'm On To You
05:06
|

Make a prayer for your life, speak it out loud don't be shy
Take a stand unto you, for what you hold true
Yeah truth, I'm on to you
I'm talkin' about truth, capital T
Not your story, set yourself free
I'm saying you can stand tall on the platform of your soul
Yeah truth, I'm on to you
I see your pain, I see your joy, I see your power to make a choice
To allow yourself to flow with divine source
Yeah truth, I'm on to you
Every time you close your eyes, look within
You just might find the answers to your questions
Every time you close your eyes, look within
You just might find the key to your freedom
So move your feet, cry your tears, do it again, have no fear
This is nothing new, the only way out is through
Yeah truth, I'm on to you
Forgive your mother, forgive yourself
She did her best and you know well
That to hold on to hate only builds walls and locks gates
Yeah truth, I'm on to you
So let it go, let love in, tear that wall down, begin again
Be kind to this world, the ocean in one pearl
Yeah truth, I'm on to you
Every time you close your eyes, look within
You just might find the answers to your questions
Every time you close your eyes, look within
You just might find the key to your freedom
Pack it in, pack it out, it's a leave no trace event, no doubt
Oh fill your cup, and take an honest look at your stuff
Yeah truth, I'm on to you
Feed your spirit, feed your soul, with the things that give you more love and light
It's time to give up the fight
Oh truth, I'm on to you
Thank your family, thank your friends, without them you'd be dead
A thousand reasons for each and every breath
Yeah truth, I'm on to you
Every time you close your eyes, look within
You just might find the answers to your questions
Every time you close your eyes, look within
You just might find the key to your freedom
So make a prayer for your life, speak it out loud, don't be shy
Take a stand unto you, for what you hold true
Yeah truth, I'm on to you.

Grandfather, show me the way
Teach me your patience, your kind ways
For you are old and you are wise
And I am young with stars in my eyes
Grandmother, show me the way
Teach me your courage, your strength today
For you are old and you are wise
And I am young with stars in my eyes
Dear children, show us the way
Teach us adventure, teach us to play
For we are old and we are wise
But you are young with stars in your eyes

I don't know what I don't know
Stays the night until the morning comes (x4)
I don't know
I can't tell, no I can't tell
Is this heaven or is this hell (x4)
I can't tell
You know it's been a long road to now
I got this feeling telling me something 'bout where we're headed
Gonna make it home somehow
Better bet I'll fly on top of the world if I can't stand it
I am blind, oh I am blind
I just can't see what I can't see (x4)
I am blind
I'm afraid, oh I'm afraid
This thing you gave me, that I might break it (x4)
I'm afraid
You know it's been a long road to now
I got this feeling telling me something 'bout where we're headed
Gonna make it home somehow
Better bet I'll fly on top of the world if I can't stand it
I'm alive, oh I'm alive
My blood is red, my heart is beating (x4)
I'm alive
I am fire, I am fire
This light you made me, now watch me burn (x4)
I am fire
You know it's been a long road to now
I got this feeling telling me something 'bout where we're headed
Gonna make it home somehow
Better bet I'll fly on top of the world if I can't stand it
Better bet I'll fly on top of the world if I can't stand it
Better bet I'll fly on top of the world if I can't stand it

Where Did You Go
04:27
|
|||
Hey, hey, where did you go today
I've been looking all over for you
My eyes are open wide but my tongue is tied
I don't know what to say to you
Had our journey just begun or had we seen it through
I was holding a candle for you
And had you returned this flame might of burned
With the love and light of two
It is our choice, it is what we choose
So remember this simple truth
The path of love or the path of fear
Which way did you go, my dear
Hey, hey where did you go today
I've been looking all over for you
My heart is open wide, I put my fear aside
As I sing my goodbyes to you

Seasons of the Heart
06:59
|

Oh the seasons, the seasons of the heart
when light begets the dark
And the darkness gives birth to light
and on and on into the night
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, Round and Round we Go (x2)
Oh the winter, with its cold embrace
calls us in to face
face our shadows, face our fears
a lonely waking dream
In the spring time we wake from our dream
hopeful and complete
sewing seeds of yet to come
seeds of hope to blossom
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, Round and Round we Go (x2)
Summer sun, it warms us to the core
we forget we were ever cold
celebration and release
singing, dancing free
In the autumn, we fall to our knees
with gratitude for the journey
we thank our family, we thank our friends
coming home once again
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, Round and Round we Go (x4)
Oh the seasons, the seasons of the heart
when light begets the dark
And the darkness gives birth to light
and on and on into the night

Sister, sister oh, where have you been
It's been 6 years since we've talked again
I've been thinking, thinking of you, wondering what to do
And I'm sorry, I am sorry too
And I, I'm right here
Oh, I, I'm right here for you
Brother, brother oh, where have you been
It's been a long time coming, I've been waiting
I've been thinking, thinking of you, wondering what to do
And I'm sorry, I am sorry too
And I, I'm right here
Oh, I, I'm right here for you

Earth my body
Hoof on stone
A crown of bones

My child, walk with me
Feel this earth beneath your feet
My child, walk free
Healing your heart in this great mystery
Look and see
Your life is unfolding so perfectly
Wait, wait and see

Healing your heart with every beat
Look and see

Wait, wait and see
Your patience and your courage

Feel this living bell in you ring
My child, sing free
Healing your heart with this melody
Look and see

Wait, wait and see
Your patience and your courage

Standing at the edge, standing at the edge
Looking down at the ground
Life has brought you here
Love won't leave you here
Trust your wings are with you now
Fly, fly free
Open
Fly, fly free
Beautiful, Beautiful Bird
The wind is calling
Beautiful, Beautiful Bird
The cage is open
Vuela vuela aguilita (x6)
You, you have the gift,
the gift of flight
So trust,
trust in each step that you take
Rise, Rise to meet the wind, to greet the day
This is your life, this is your life
so lead the way
Beautiful, Beautiful Bird
The wind is calling
Beautiful, Beautiful Bird
The cage is open
Vuela vuela aguilita (x4)
Fly, Fly free
with the wind
Fly, fly free
Beautiful, Beautiful Bird
The wind is calling
Beautiful, Beautiful Bird
The cage is open

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
that saved a soul like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
was blind but now I see
T'was grace that brought my heart this love
This love that grace set free
Amazing grace, below, above
My heart is filled with peace
