Get Up! 03:36
Get Up! CC/Cdh Back down to the beginning of the end Dirt ground until your feelings comprehend We never look before we leap The fog descends and we’re asleep Before it’s too late Get up, get up - hear the voice that never lies Get up, get up – a drop beside the ocean Get up, get up – believe and we can rise above the commotion, above the commotion Earth quake, or a trillion dollar flaw Whose sake will make us turn and face the roar We justify our own mistakes But how much more can we all take Before it’s too late Get up, get up – here comes the rising tide Get up, get up – the power of love in motion Get up, get up - collective conscious mind Get up, get up – Let peace be our devotion Let peace be our devotion Take action for the world to mend Take care of how your thoughts transcend All without comes from within ... Just start from where you are - begin Get up, get up - hear the voice that never lies Get up, get up – a drop beside the ocean Get up, get up – believe and we can rise above the commotion, above the commotion Get up, get up – here comes the rising tide Get up, get up – the power of love in motion Get up, get up - collective conscious mind Get up, get up – Let peace be our devotion Let peace be our devotion Let peace be our devotion Let peace be our devotion

Give it all Away CC/RC Hording everything he lived a life Of good intention Taking all he could Without regret until he knew redemption It came on wings of love and how it changed his every way It came as some surprise to him he say I'd give it all away X 2 Only to have you here beside me every day I'd give it all away Ooh Living out of fear she walked the path Of least resisitence Avoiding all she could keeping low At a lonely distance Love breaks the surface as she wakes Behind her tired eyes Her spirit aches To give it all away X 2 Now she knows that love will keep Her doubts at bay She gives it all away All we have is love To temper what we know It's all we leave behind us when we go So give it all away etc All your good intention won't help you find redemption You got to give it all away Give it all, give it all, give it all away X 3

My Only Success Is You - CC/HW I’ve been out in the world and I’ve tried To keep money and friends on side But somehow along the way They drifted off I seen all kinds of kindness and hate Choosing afraid of mistakes Somehow along the way Feelings cut off Through the maze and over the wall When I gave nothing at all Certain and true My only success is you My only success is you My only success is you Is You

Letting Go 04:16
Letting go CC 17th sept 2009 Stone walls surround this place No pain, no passion, no peace The sharpness, strains and stretches The skin of life What lies beneath – the crucible of freedom Pulls your focus to release Let go of failure, let go of hatred, let go of sorrow Let go, letting go, letting go, letting go The urgency to change Calls out and will not cease Uplifting, uncompromising Risk everything! Burn all you fear - in the crucible of freedom Find your focus and release Let go our outrage, let go all armour, let go tomorrow Let go, letting go, letting go, letting go inst-break Love rises like a wave Withstanding while we weep The lotus lies below mud slides Blossoming Transformed beneath – the crucible of freedom Burning focus brings release Let go transgression, let go deception, Let go of failure, let go all hatred, Let go our outrage, let go all armour, let fly the arrow Let go, letting go, letting go, letting go ….

I know How it Feels CC/MS Each day the ache begins anew A fresh wound waiting And there’s nothing I can do And when I think I know the way The road leads nowhere Now there’s nothing I can say No magic wand to save the day CH: I know how it feels to be alone I know how it feels To bare the shame of everything I’ve done And in the memory of your eyes Everything is a compromise I take the blame I take it all You’ll never know it The silence makes feel so small I pray one day you’ll make the call CH: I know how it feels to be alone I know how it feels To bare the shame of everything I’ve done And in the memory of your eyes Everything is a compromise Inst Ch: X 2

The Ones That Love You CC/RC Out in the world Nothing seems real Losing your innocence To all that you feel Right now your heart’s in the gutter Swarming with doubt Look up now child the stars are out Don’t make love a stranger When you need the rest You’ll find your way home, You’ll find your way home To the ones that know you the best The ones that love you the best Reach out for love Don’t be so blind By all that you witness Unloved and unkind Right now your heart’s in the gutter Swarming with doubt Look up now child the stars are out Don’t make love a stranger When you need the rest You’ll find your way home, You’ll find your way home To the ones that love you the best The ones that love you the best Take one step back, just one step The stars are out Don’t make love a stranger When you need the rest You’ll find your way home, You’ll find your way home To the ones that know you the best The ones that love you the best Don’t make love a stranger When you need the rest You’ll find your way home, You’ll find your way home To the ones that love you the best The ones that love you the best

Just Listen 02:19
Just Listen CC We run we keep on running Aware of the setting sun And right behind old father time His quarry for sporting fun We run We cry we keep on crying Desperate for someone to hear And deep inside the raging tide Is rising with all our fear We’re crying All is well in heaven and earth All is well my dear All is well our Angels’ song But do we ever hear, ever hear Listen - just listen – be still Listen – listen – listen – be still

Love Again 05:03
Love Again - CC/MS 2009 I’ve tried telling time Slow right down But it won’t wait for me And I don’t know how I’m ever gonna stop it all from running out I’ve tried letting the tide Turn me around Getting caught in the waves Run aground I barely have the strength to breathe I’m almost drowned Oh Why do we pretend that everything’s different That we could be friends When everything’s wrong I don’t know where I belong In the end How could I believe love again I’ve tried Letting the storm Drive through the pain Wide as clear blue sky after rain All my doubts are swept aside I’ll learn to love again Oh Why do we pretend that everything’s different That we could be friends When everything’s wrong I don’t know where I belong In the end How could I believe love again Inst I was empty out of love Lived in hunger for a touch You know it almost dragged me under You wouldn’t ever lift your mask Walked away into the past Double chorus …

Faithless Land – Christine Collister August 2010 I listen for her voice Hear me now, hear me, hear me now, I try to understand Hear me now, hear me, hear me now She says I have no choice Hear me now, hear me, hear me now But have faith in a faithless land Hear me now, hear me, hear me now Plucked from the heart of innocent love A rag doll to a child Tactile, sensitive, trampled in mud Strung out high and wild – when I listen for her voice Hear me now, hear me, hear me now, I try to understand Hear me now, hear me, hear me now She says I have no choice Hear me now, hear me, hear me now But have faith in a faithless land Hear me now, hear me, hear me now Tightly, twisted torn to the nerve Like a demon without prey Little by little I came to serve Darkness was my day … till I listened for her voice Hear me now, hear me, hear me now, And tried to understand Hear me now, hear me, hear me now She says that I have no choice Hear me now, hear me, hear me now But have faith in a faithless land Hear me now, hear me, hear me now I'm listening, My heart can bend Like a willow tree Tell me what do you need I listen for her voice And now I understand I make the only choice I have faith in a faithless land X 3 Faithless land I have faith In a Faithless land X 3 I have faith, I have faith, I have faith in me
