"Making Real Sense Of The Senses"

Our eyes are for looking at things
But they are also for crying
When we are very happy or cery sad

Our ears are for listening
But so are our hearts
So are our hearts

Our noses are for smelling food
But also the wind and the grass and
If we try very hard, butterflies

Our hands are for feeling
But also for hugging and touching so gently

Our mouths and tongues are for tasting
But also for saying words, like
"I love you," and
"Thank you, God, for all of these things."

"Missed You On Sunday"

You're flying loose and I'm losing ground with you
Want you to stay cause I can't follow you
You know I'll wait forever if you want me to
It's not your talkin I know it's who you're talking to

Missed you on Sunday cause you weren't there
Saw you on Monday with purple hair
No matter what you do you'll find me there
Missing you on Sunday
Our number one day
Yeah I'm missing the answer to my prayers

I see you walking through the danger zone
That's not the way I used to walk you home
Don't wanna hold you back
I'd let you go alone
And pray that someday you'll come back on your own

Missed you on Sunday cause you weren't there
I saw you on Monday with purple hair
No matter what you do you'll find me there
Missing you on Sunday
Our number one day
Yeah I'm missing the answers to my prayers

Some people say I'm such a fool to wait for you
But I can't close the gates through the heaven we once knew
Life's such a mystery
Always been clear to me
When you're around I see the sun come shining through

No matter what you do you'll find me there
Missing you on Sunday
Our number one day
Yeah I'm missing the answer to my -
I missed you on Sunday cause you weren't there
I saw you on Monday with purple hair
No matter what you do you'll find me there
Missing you on Sunday
Our number one day
Yeah I'm missing the answers to my prayers

"Morning Gift"

Don't you love the mornings
When you go outside and there on the ground
Is a fresh perfect green leaf
A leaf floating from the quiet summer trees
just resting on the grass and waiting to be discovered

Touch the treasure
And pick it up gently
And feel the excitement
Of a new leaf with no tears
No marks no holes
It is the sign of healing and future

Don't you just love the mornings
When you're reminded of the special gifts of life

"My Time On Earth"

My time on Earth
Long as it seems
Is just a moment
In the grande scheme of things

A short refrain
Of life's endless song
Sung only once
And then we're gone

My time on Earth
Each breath I breathe
Is one more chance to share my love
With those around me

We come and go
Like shooting stars
The truth be known,
That's all we are

The more that I know
The more I can see
The older I grow
The more I believe
It's not the length of the life
Or the depth of the grave
In the end we'll be measured
By the love that we gave

So my time on Earth
On fate depends
But all that happens
In the space we're meant to live

Depends on me
And choices I face
For better or worse
They're mine to make

The more that I know
The more I can see
The older I grow
The more I believe
It's not the length of the life
Or the depth of the grave
In the end we'll be measured
By the love that we gave

So my time on Earth
Will be well spent
And when I leave this world
I'll leave with no regrets

I'll live and love
For all its worth
'Till I live out
My time on Earth

'Till I live out my time on Earth

"Oklahoma"

Suitcase packed with all his things
Car pulls up, the doorbell rings
He don't want to go
He thought he'd found his home
But with circumstances he can't change
Waves goodbye as they pull away
From the life he's known
For the last seven months or so

She said we found the man who looks like you
Who cried and said he never knew
About the boy in pictures that we showed him
A rambler in his younger days
He knew he made a few mistakes
But he swore he would have been there
Had he known it
Son we think we found your dad in Oklahoma

A million thoughts raced through his mind
What's his name, what's he like and will he be
Anything like the man in his dreams
She could see the questions in his eyes
Whispered "don't be scared my child
I'll let you know, what we know

About the man we found, he looks like you
And cried and said he never knew
About the boy in pictures that we showed him
A rambler in his younger days He knew he'd made a few mistakes
But he swore he would've been there Had he known it
You always said that this was something that you wanted
Son it's time to meet your Dad in Oklahoma

One last turn he held his breath
'Til they reached the fifth house on the left
And all at once the tears came rolling in
And as they pulled into the drive
A man was waiting there outside
Who wiped the worry from his eyes Smiled and took his hand

And he said I'm the man who looks like you
Who cried because I never knew
About that boy in pictures that they showed me
A rambler in my younger days I knew I made a few mistakes
But I swear I would have been there had I known it
Never again will you ever be alone
Son welcome to your home in Oklahoma

"Our First Kiss"

The last thing on my mind
When I closed my eyes
Oooo Oooo Oooo my my
Is our first kiss

It might've been rainin'
It might've been sunny,
It could've been your house
It might've been Monday

The truth is I'm clueless
A little bit hazy
But when I remember
I can almost taste it

The last thing on my mind
When I closed my eyes
Ooo Ooo Ooo my my
Is our first kiss
Shooby do bob bob

A tiny bit nervous
I'd never been kissed
Did you open your eyes?
Cause I never did

I couldn't say nothin'
As I let it sink it,
I was just waiting to kiss you again!

The last thing on my mind
When I closed my eyes
Yeah, Ooo Ooo Ooo my my
Is our first kiss
Shooby do bob bob

"Peaceable Kingdome"

A leopard with a harmless kid lay down
And not one savage beast was seen to frown
The wolf did with the lamb can dwell in peace
His grim carnivorous nature there did cease
The lion with the fatling awn did move
And a little child was leading them in love

Long ago there was a young painter
Who had a dream that every creature came
And stood assembled by his side
And he painted the sight that had sweetened his night
For the one hundred times before he died
A kid lion and a snake and a child
Wide-eyed and formal and smiling like the sun had stopped
And time had ceased to move
And the wolf and the lamb
Came and ate from his hand
And a man-child was leading them in love

Friend have you seen all the lines and the spaces
The colors that the old painter sees
In the peaceable kingdom that shines in the faces
Of people from more gentle times than these

I find myself adrift these days
And endless maze of ends and ways
And worlds seem so crazy to be here
But look away look away
Back or forward from today
To the visions of either fools or sears

Oh my friend have you seen all the lines and the spaces
The colors that the old painter sees
In the peaceable kingdom that shines in the faces
Of people from more gentle times than these

Such a beautiful place
Full of joy full of grace
It was bathed in our saintly yellow lie
To what learning to know that such things can't be so
He could only believe that they might

Oh my friend have you seen all the lines and the spaces
The colors that the old painter sees
In the peaceable kingdom that shines in the faces
Of people from more gentle times than these

Friend have you seen all the lines and the spaces
The colors that the young painter sees
In the peaceable kingdom that shines in the faces
Of people from more gentle times than these

"Possession"

One of my greatest fears is "It."
I can't touch "it," but I can feel "it."
It does not have a taste or smell,
But I can hear it in my spirit

[Chorus:]
It is deep inside of me,
It makes me fear my memory
One day I'll live peacefully,
Without the fear of "It"

It is something I can't see
It can never possess me
It always tries to take control
I can defeat it if I believe it

[Repeat Chorus]

It keeps running through my mind,
I have to fight it time and time
And time and time and time
And time again...

[Repeat Chorus]

The more I understand about it
The less my world revolves around it
Then I can just live out my life
Without the fear of "it."

"Pray For Him"

Knocked on his door last night
He should have been there
I waited till 6pm
Lord I'm worrying again
Said he messed up something real bad
Whatever it is I'll be there

I'll pray for him
Hope he's all right
Feels like he's all alone
Against the world tonight
But he's gone away Lord
Help me pray for him

Told him he's got to believe
There's a lot to believe in
Doesn't think he's good enough
Says it doesn't matter much
Well if I were walking in his shoes
He'd be there for me
He'd know what to do

I'll pray for him
Hope he's all right
Feels like he's all alone against the world tonight
But he's gone away Lord
Help me pray for him

Well I've done everything I can do
I leave it in your hands
Lord it's up to you

I'll pray for him
Hope he's all right
Feels like he's all alone against the world tonight
But he's gone away Lord
Help me pray for him

Oh pray for him
Hope he's all right
Feels like he's all alone against the world tonight
But he's gone away Lord
Help me pray Lord
For he's gone away Lord
Help me pray for him

"Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer"
(feat. Asleep At The Wheel)

You know Dasher and Dancer
And Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid
And Donner and Blitzen.
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all?

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows

All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say
Rudolph with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?

Then all the reindeer loved him
And they shouted out with glee
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
You'll go down in history!
