Track Name: Spirit Speak To Me
Spirit, speak to me, I'm quiet.
All of me hears all of you.
Thank you for my inner calling.
I am listening.

Spirit, come to me, I'm open.
All of me feels all of you.
Thank you for my change of heart.
I am grateful.

All of my days I've been hungry for guidance,
Asking "what is mine to do?"
If only I'd known to sit in the silence
And open my heart to you.
Spirit, speak to me.

Spirit, breathe into my heart.
I'm connected to your love.
Thank you for my inspiration.
I am breathing.
Thank you for my understanding.
I am knowing.
And thank you for my bounty.
I am timeless, I am whole.
Track Name: Reality Limbo
I found myself in limbo, afraid to sink or swim
Not knowing where I really wanted to go.
My mind was full of negatives and cynical ideas
Until I heard this universal law.

Chorus:
Reality follows wherever you lead,
‘Cos every single thought is a powerful seed.
Whether you’re mindful or floating and free,
Reality follows, obediently.

Was that an angry mob about to catch me?
Or was I really leading a parade?
With gratitude, I bless all I’ve been given.
Don’t curse the lemon, sip the lemonade.

repeat Chorus

Bridge:

An idea in your mind, a conviction in your heart
I believe that you will find a stepping stone,
a bridge to bring it to life.

I wrote the screenplay of my own life story.
And naturally I cast myself as me.
My name in lights, my star is surely rising.
This is no fairy tale, no fantasy.
Track Name: A World At Peace
I see a world at peace, not a world in pieces,
Not a soul in need do I see.
A garden of green, a joy that never ceases,
I see a world at peace.

I see us all as one, undivided,
Many voices joined in a single song.
An anthem of hope and we are reunited.
I see us all as one.

Peace in my heart and in yours,
A little peace within our family.
That's where it starts, opening doors
Trading clashes for overtures,
So stand with me and say…

I see a world at peace, not a world in pieces,
Not a soul in need do I see.
A garden of green, a joy that never ceases,
I see a world at peace.
Track Name: In the Silence
You don’t have to speak, no need to make a sound.
This is not a prayer, it’s the other way around.
Close your eyes or leave them open wide.
Breathe and listen for a gentle voice inside,
In the silence, in the silence.

The scene is set and idle thoughts may take the stage.
Observe them passing and choose not to engage.
Chaos on the outside, you are able to release.
Deeper and deeper, nothing but a state of peace.
In the silence, in the silence.

You can perfect a yoga pose or find a guru, I suppose,
Or disregard any of those and do this on your own
In the silence.

In the dead of night, in the light of day, in the silence.
In the passing of a moment,
in the shadow, in the silence.
In a dark room, at a red light,
on a park bench, on a day hike,
In a dream state, any time of day,
any waking hour, on the subway,
In a crowded elevator,
In the silence,
in the silence,
in the silence.
Track Name: House of God
New home, old friends,
A new beginning as a chapter ends.
The same heart in a new facade.
Every Sunday morning in the house of God.

Take pride, stand tall
In a sanctuary open to all
Celebrate who we truly are
Seven days a week in the house of God

Dream big, dream grand.
Imagine that you hold it in the palm of your hand.

Embracing old souls,
Love here is overflowing.
Temple or synagogue -
Anywhere we gather is the house of God.

We are family, here in unity
This is our community, you and you and me.
This is family in the house of God.
Track Name: You Made a Place for Me
When I was Spirit, perfect and whole,
Adrift in the ether, nothing but soul,
I had no home on earth ‘til you made a place for me.

I had no body, no body at all,
Just energy flowing, connected to all.
I had no home on earth ‘til you made a place for me.

Then I attracted you and you attracted me.
Together father, me and mother,
Always more to teach each other.
Mama, I dedicate this song to you.

Then I was your baby and you were my mom and dad.
And like a reunion, together again at last
I have a home on earth ‘cos you made a place for me.
Track Name: My Good
It almost eluded me, sometimes it excluded me,
Now I never have to wait again for my good.
I open my eyes and much to my surprise
I never have to wait again for my good.

Once upon a time I tramped the world over,
Chasing that elusive outer score.
Near the end I trade up my desire
In a never ending drive for something more.

And now I find, yes, I had it all the time.
And I never have to wait again for my good.
Despite my greed, I’ve got everything I need,
And I never have to wait again for my good.

It always seemed a bit beyond me,
One step ahead and out of reach.
An empty hole I couldn’t fill until
I stopped looking out and faced my questions in.
Track Name: Are You Ready?
Are you ready to dry up your tears?
Are you ready, say goodbye to your fears.
Rev it up, shifting gears,
Higher and higher ‘til morning appears.

Are you ready to come out and play?
Are you ready to seize a brand new day?
Live it up, don’t delay,
Magic and mystery and more on the way.

Now my friend, now is the time for beginning.
Choose again, releasing the need to know exactly how it will go.

I’m ready to make a new start,
Creating my world is a work of art.
Make it up, play a part,
Stars on my ceiling and joy in my heart.

Now my friend, now is the time for beginning.
Choose again, releasing the need to know exactly how it will go.

I’m ready to make a new start,
Creating my world is a work of art.
Shake it up, break apart,
Stars on my ceiling and joy in my heart.
Track Name: All is Well
Rest your head and close your eyes, all is well,
While I sing a lullaby, all is well,
And if you wake before the light, I’ll be close at hand.
Say your prayers and say goodnight, all is well.

When you’ve grown, remember yet, all is well,
With children of your own I bet, all is well.
And if you face the rising tide and shifting sands of fate,
Say a prayer and take it in stride, all is well.

Chorus:

All is well, all is well,
More than these simple words can tell.
All is well, all is well,
Lay down your burden, all is well.

Rest your head & close your eyes as the sun goes down.
I will help you say goodbye, this time around.
If you’re feeling lost like me, still in my heart you’re found.
I will see you again, my love, safe and sound.

Chorus
