1. And pass the world The train, the car, the plane To leave my heart untouchable. Yet I reach out from world I seek the rainbow's end The pot of gold. The radiant friend, the soul that mends beneath your touch Your healing touch 2. Not much this world beneath your eyes I swim I drown in sea of lies I spy with my little eye something gray and something dim This empty sea it pulls me in... But... The pot of gold. The radiant friend The soul that mends beneath your touch Your healing touch BRIDGE Yet I reach out from world extend I seek the rainbow's end The pot of gold. The radiant friend, the soul that mends beneath your touch Your healing touch

Keep my mind open And I know why life teared below Got a round ta sail my Save my… leave on the red tide of the mile or so away (left so… my soul He) (He left so… my soul) Got my soul Got my soul Guardian of… the Midnight Sun I’ve begun to realize Guardian of the Midnight Sun Time goes on and it goes and it takes me how… I do not know Just to rectify the moan And it goes All night all night all night Into the mornin’ Daylight is my Out of here Call my mind to arise Lift up my soul And my body moves again Moves again… moves again I’ve been here Thinkin’ about thinkin’ about the lives I live And I give everything for the time For the time I wanna Sift through the moments At the end of the day we say Oh O Oh, we say we say we say we say Guardian of my soul yeah Guardian of the Midnight Sun Guardian of my soul Guardian of the Midnight Sun Guardian of the Midnight Sun

Tell my dear mama I’ll be there real soon Word to my papa. I remember the tune Sounds like forever on the tip of my tongue Sunset and dreaming whenever it’s sung CHORUS: We could all be there A heartbeat away Moments unending at the end of the day But I just can’t sing it for the blur in my eyes Tears like a river as they mirror the skies The rain falling gently like mercy to me The seasons and years and the earth all agree CHORUS: We could all be there A heartbeat away Moments unending at the end of the day BRIDGE: The bright sky is shining The hills in the morning The oceans reflecting Dreams are aborning (aborning aborning)

There are all its pieces Hanging without strings The spinning world is broken Hearts are hovering CHORUS: We do not know So we pretend We do not see The better friend Losing all the reasons For our being here Hanging in suspension In the atmosphere... CHORUS BRIDGE: The broken world The broken heart The broken wings (X3) The broken things. We do not know So we pretend We do not feel The love that mends We do not see The better friend

Carry Me 05:59
We fall I fall But… You pick me up… You elevate me And love is how You treat me And you… Yes you Carry me We call I call You listen I pray You shine… You glisten Love is how You treat me And you,,, Yes you Carry me Lift up my body Lift up my soul Up from the pain Heal me. Fix me. Make me whole But for now… just for now… Carry Me! We hurt I hurt You seek me And you heal me And love is how You treat me And you… Yes you Carry me

VERSE 1: Rain runs down Tastes like empty Sitting here. No refill. Cold cold chill of warm gone CHORUS: And on my mind The better time You were mine (you were mine) VERSE 2: When you were mine I didn’t own you Just knew you But time moves on… CHORUS VERSE 3: Looking back But now is now And we are dead Best unsaid… CHORUS

Vien ce soir toujours ces soirs Qui veut donner les étoiles à jouer Et moi, encore une fois encore Quand l’arbre et vent brizez Seulement nos mains nos coeurs Nos bras qui levez Le monde qui fermez toutes Les yeux d'espoir Ton amour mon Dieu Oh, s’il vous plaît Plaisir sous votre Grand Nom Éternel Always These Evenings Come up tonight always these nights That wants to give the stars joy And I, again one time When the tree and wind blow Only our hands our hearts Our arms that raise The world that closes all The eyes of hope Your love my God Oh, if you please, Pleasure beneath your Great Eternal Name!

God Is Love 06:18
1. God is love (is) What He does We who live Give because CHORUS: Holy Generosity (Seeks) not its own but He Loves to love, He Loves to love, He Loves to love, He is Love... 2. Came to serve Came to bless He loved us first And we confess... CHORUS 3. Listen well Listen kind Give your heart Give your time... CHORUS BRIDGE 4. All we have We give away All our lives For Jesus’ sake... CHORUS
