where love abounds
for this is a temple

all around

beyong all measure
and at his feet
sweet peace of mind
can still be found

"If I Could"

   
If I Could
I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes
give you courage in a world of compromise
yes I would
If I could
I would teach you all the things I've never learned
and I'd help you cross the bridges that I've burned
yes I would
if I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
but the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I've watched you grow
so I could let you go
if I could
I would help you make it through the hungry years
but I know that I can never cry your tears
but I would
if I could
if I live in a time and place where you don't want to be
you don't have to walk along this road with me
my yesterday won't have to be your way
if I knew
how I'd try to change the world I brought you to
and there isn't very much that I can do
but I would
if I could
if I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
but that part of life I gave you isn't mine
I watched you grow so I could let you go
if, if I could
I would help you make it through those hungry years
but I know that I can never cry your tears
but I would
if I could
yes I would
yes I would
if I could

"Circle"

   
Some say
the walls betweeen us stand so tall
they don't see there's just one sun
shining on us all
I say
we each choose roads to call our own
but none of us is travelling through
this universe alone
and this circle
just goes on and on
it began before us
it will be here when we've gone
and this circle
just goes on and on and on
connecting our humanity
joining me to you and you to me
seasons
keep spinning on the wheel of time
we stand we fall
we struggle up
the mountains we must climb
different dreams
may colour what we see ahead
but our lives are strong together
on a common thread
and this circle (circle)
just goes on and on (on and on)
it began before us
it will be here when we've gone
and this circle
just goes on and on and on
connecting our humanity
joining me to you and you to me
around and round and round and round we go
around and round and round we go
love and learn and change and grow
round and round and round we go
and this circle
touches everyone
as it crosses every boundry
underneath the sun
and this circle
just goes on and on
it began before us
it will be here when we're gone
yes this circle
just goes on and on and on
someday we will come to see
I'm joined to you and you to me

"The Water Is Wide / Deep River"

   
The water is wide
I cannot cross over
and neither have
I wings to fly
build me a boat
that will carry two
and both shall row
my love and I
There is a ship
and she sails the sea
she's loaded deep
as deep can be
but not so deep
as the love I'm in
I know not how
I sink or swim
deep river
my home is over jordan
deep river
lord
I want to cross over into campground
deep river
my home is over jordan
mmm, deep river, lord
I want to cross over into campground
oh don't you want to go
to that gospel feast
that promised land
where all is peace
for deep river, lord
I want to cross over into campground
the water is wide
I cannot cross over
and neither have
I wings to fly
build me aboat
that will carry two
and both shall row
and both shall row
and both shall row
my love and I

"Leading With Your Heart"

   
Mmmm, Mmmm,
Once upon a time
I was afraid
Of letting go
letting someone in
my feelings stayed
behind a door that had no key
leading with my heart
never was for me
living in my mind
running away
till someone's arms
caught me by surprise
I never knew
the power of love that I suppose
deep in every heart
there's a part that knows
listen to it's voice
for it whispers what your dreams are made of
so why be afraid of
what you know is true
every day you learn
leading with your heart
can lift you higher
where your hearts desire
will be waiting for you
follow what you feel
feelings are wise
believe your heart
as you believe your eyes
and like a child
who's wandered off and lost its way
you can find a place
where you soul believes
that your home to stay
follow what you feel
anywhere it goes
believe your heart
trusting that it knows
as the dark of night
will always find the light of day
listening with your heart
you will hear it say
leading with your heart
you will find your way

"Lessons To Be Learned"

   
They say
there's a universal plan
for every woman
for every man
I do believe
there's a higher power
but in our darkest hour
it's hard to understand
so we start to question
start to doubt
we lose faith in what life's all about
why did the right road
take the wrong turn
why did our heart break
why'd we get burned
just like the seasons
there are reasons
for the path we take
there are no mistakes
just lessons to be learned
don't give up
keep on looking deep inside
let your heartbeat
be your guide
cause there's a gift
for those who keep believing
you'll find what you've been needing
is right before your eyes
you'll hold the answer
in your hands
and then you'll know
you'll finally understand
why
why did the right road
take that wrong turn
why did our heart break
and why'd we get burned
just like the seasons
there are reasons
for the path we take
there are no mistakes
just lessons to be learned
no matter how many times
you stumble or fall
the greatest lesson
is loving yourself
through it all
why did the right road
take that wrong turn
why did our heart break
why'd we get burned
just like the seasons
there are reasons
for the path we take
there are no mistakes
just lessons
lessons
to be learned

"Everything Must Change"

   
Everything must change
nothing stays the same
everyone must change
no one stays the same
the young become the old
and mysteries do unfold
cause that's the way of time
nothing and no one goes unchanged
there are not many things in life
you can be sure of
except rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
and hummingbirds do fly
winter turns to spring
a wounded heart will heal
but never much too soon
yes
everything must change
the young become the old
and mysteries do unfold
cause that's the way of time
nothing and no one goes unchanged
there are not many things in life
you can be sure of
except rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
and butterflies do fly
rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
and music
and music
makes me cry

"Avinu Malkeinu"

   
[Translation]

Hear our prayer
We have sinned before Thee
Have compassion upon us and upon our children
Help us bring an end to pestilence, war, and famine
Cause all hate and oppression to vanish from the earth
Inscribe us for blessing in the Book Of Life
Let the new year be a good year for us

"I've Dreamed Of You"

   
I've dreamed of you
Always feeling you were there.
And all my life
I have searched for you everywhere.
I caught your smile in the morning sun
I heard your whisper on the breeze at night.
I prayed one day
That your arms would hold me tight.
And just when I
Thought love had passed me by
We met.
That first look in your eyes I can't forget.
You melted me with your tender touch.
I felt all fear and sorrow slip away.
Now here we stand
Hand in hand
This blessed day.

I promise you
As I give to you my heart
That nothing in this world
Shall keep us apart.
Come happily ever after be
The man I'll love until the very end.
I've dreamed of you
My great love and my best friend.

For God must know
How I love you so.
He's blessed us here today as man and wife.
Come dream with me
As I've dreamed of you
All my life.
Come dream with me
As I have dreamed of you
All my life.

"Isn't It A Pity?"

   
It's a funny thing.
I look at you.
I get a thrill
I never knew.
Isn't it a pity
We never met before?
Here we are at last.
It's like a dream.
The two of us
A perfect team.
Isn't it a pity
We never met before?

Imagine all the lonely years we've wasted.
Me with the neighbors.
You at silly labors.
What joys untasted.
My nights were sour,
Spent with Schopenhauer

Let's forget the past.
Let's both agree
That I'm for you
And you're for me.
And it's such a pity
We never, never met before.

Imagine all the years we've wasted.
Fishing for salmon
Losing at backgammon.
What joys untasted.
Me at the Prado,
You in Colorado.

Happiest of girls I'm sure to be
If only you would say to me
That it's such a pity
We never met before.
What an awful pity
We never, never met before.
