"Give A Little More Lovin'"

"Give A Little More Lovin'"



Ooh, baby
Gotta have your love, yeah, yeah

Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'

Tonight we can make emotions grow, oh, hold me
And I can take you where oceans flow, oh, baby
Love is right here tonight
We can make it come alive

Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'

Tonight we can make the spirit move
Baby, please don't fight it
'Cause we are among the chosen few to find it
Feelings grow when you know
It's all or nothing, me and you, baby

Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'

Whoa, oh, don't stop
When you find romance
You've gotta take a chance

Feelings grow when you know
It's all or nothing, me and you, whoa, oh

Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'
Give a little more lovin'

"Gloria In Excelsis"

"Gloria In Excelsis"



O blessed town
Of Bethlehem
Within thy gray
Green shade
Ringed round
With
Terraced vineyard
And depth
Of olive glade
There on thy high
Green pastures
The shepherds
Watch their sheep
The low large moon
Shines glim'ring
O'er all
The upland steep

What music
Of the heavens
What magic song
Of bliss
What vision
Of the night-tide
What mystic light
Is this?
The silly sheep
Are blinded
The shepherds
In amaze
Stand awe-struck
All the hillside
With glory
Is abaze

The angels'
Joyous

Rings out
Into the night
O Gloria
In excelsis
Sing praises
In the height
Sing praises
Men of Bethlehem

Sing praises
Here below
For peace
On Earth
And goodwill
He doth
On your bestow

For on this day
Is born there
Within
Your little town
A Child
Who Christ
The Lord is
Yet wears
No earthly crown
He bringeth joy
And gladness
To you
And all mankind
Yea
Peace on earth
And good-will
To men
Of equal mind

O blessed town
Of Bethlehem
How happy
Is thy state
How blest
Above all palaces
The stable
At thy gate
For there
In manger-cradle
(Oh true the angel word)
As King enthroned
Of all the worlds
Reigns Jesus Christ
The Lord

"Go Away Little Girl (Boy)"

"Go Away Little Girl (Boy)"



Go away little girl
go away little girl
I'm not supposed to be alone with you
I know that your lips are sweet
but our lips must never meet
I belong to somebody else
and I must be true.

oh go away little girl
go away little girl
it's hurting more the longer that you delay
when you are near me like this
you're much too hard to resist
go away little girl
before I beg you to stay.

I know that your lips are sweet
but our lips must never meet
I belong to somebody else
and I must be true.

go way little girl
it's hurting me the longer that you delay
when you are near me like this
you're much too hard to resist
go way little girl
before I beg you to stay.

"God's Gift To The World"

"God's Gift To The World"


[Chorus:]
This one
That one
Each one
Is god's gift to the world

They are
We are
Each one
Is god's gift to the world

There are no extra people
In a mansion or a ghetto
Each heart and soul is counted
Though they're different than you

So look across the ocean
See those on distant corners
Or see the one beside you
Look in their eyes and you'll know that it's true

And all the lonely people
The first ones and the last ones
All the great and small ones
The ones that win and lose

All of the remembered
Even the forgotten
From every single nation
You know it's true...for me and you

[Chorus (repeats.)]

"Grandma's Hands"

"Grandma's Hands"



Grandma's hands
Clapped in church on Sunday morning
Grandma's hands
Played a tambourine so well
Grandma's hands
Used to issue out a warning
She'd say: Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
Might be snakes there in that grass
Grandma's hands

Grandma's hands
Soothed a local unwed mother
Grandma's hands
Used to ache sometimes and swell
Grandma's hands
Used to lift her face and tell her
Baby, Grandma understands
That you really love that man
Put yourself in Jesus' hands
Grandma's hands

Grandma's hands
Used to hand me piece of candy
Grandma's hands
Picked me up each time I fell
Grandma's hands
Boy, they really came in handy
She'd say" Matty don' you whip that boy
What you want to spank him for?
He didn't drop no apple core
But I don't have Grandma anymore

If I get to Heaven I'll look for
Grandma's hands

"Groovin' High"

"Groovin' High"



Be silent
And listen
The summer night has got something to say
Honey be silent
And listen

A little whisper like a preacher would pray
Honey be silent
And listen
Slow down a moment we been talkin' all day
What wonderful story it's tellin'
We'll hear it if we stop yellin'
So Honey be silent
And listen

The night'll whisper little things in your ear
Be silent,
And listen,
It's gonna whisper something you wanna hear
Honey be silent
And listen

And when you've heard it and it's ever so clear
Define every meanin'
cuz I will be dreamin' away
Hey don't scream
That way

Whispering while you cuddle near me
Whispering so so no one hear me
Each little whisper seems to cheer me
I know it's true dear
there's no one but you
Won't you keep...

Whisper why you'll never leave me
Whisper why you'll never grieve me
Whisper and say that you believe me
Whispering that I love you.
Be silent
And listen

The summer nights has got something to say
Honey be silent
And listen
A little whisper like a preacher would pray
Honey be silent
And listen

Slow down a moment we been talkin' all day
What wonderful story it's tellin'
We'll hear it if we stop a'yellin'
So Honey be silent
And listen

The night'll whisper little things in your ear
And listen,
Be silent,
And listen,
It's gonna whisper something you wanna hear
Honey be silent
And listen

And when you've heard it and it's ever so clear
Define every meanin'
cuz I will be dreamin' away
Hey don't scream
That way

Whispering while you cuddle near me
Whispering so so no one can hear me

Each little whisper seems to cheer me
I know it's true dear
there's no one but you
Won't you keep...

Whisper why you'll never leave me
Whisper why you'll never grieve me
Whisper and say that you believe me
Whispering that I love you.

"Hark The Herald Angels Sing"

"Hark The Herald Angels Sing"



Hark, the herald angels sing
Glory to the new born King
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled

Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With angelic host proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem

Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the new born King

Angels singing, tidings bringing
Angels singing, good news bringing
Angels singing, tidings bringing
Angels singing, good news bringing

Christ by highest heaven adored
Christ the everlasting Lord
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of a Virgin's womb

Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with men to dwell
Jesus our Emmanuel
(Angels singing, tidings bringing)

Hail the heaven born Prince of Peace
Hail the Son of righteousness
Light and life to all He brings
Risen with healing in His wings

Mild, He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth

Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the new born King

Angels singing, tidings bringing
Angels singing, good news bringing
Angels singing, good news bringing

Angels singing, tidings bringing
Angels singing, good news bringing

Angels singing, good news bringing
Angels singing, tidings bringing
Angels singing, good news bringing
Angels singing, tidings bringing

Angels singing, good news bringing
Angels singing, tidings bringing
Angels singing

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"



Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight, of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yule-tide gay
From now on our troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who have been dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years
We all will be together if the fates allow
Come and hang, hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Right now, now

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yule-tide gay
From now on our troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days, days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years
We all will be together if the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
Have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Right now, now, now, now

"Heart's Horizon"

"Heart's Horizon"



A lullaby my little guy to hush your cryin'
A lullaby you might recall when times are tryin'
And sing every day all that you're realizing
Know every song sung in lightness and Laughter
And don't play too long in the blues that come After
Take her along
Conquer your mountains again

A lullaby my little guy the moon is rising
You'll awake to see a sight that's worth the Prizing
That new morning star high on your heart's Horizon

If you're the one that always says bygones be Bygones
And when you look you've lost the ones
That you rely on
Look deep in your heart there's something to
Keep your eyes on

Cold distant stars slowly fade while you're Sleeping
And hollow guitars will be quietly weeping
So paint the skies with your bright shining
Castles in Spain

Among the things you do each day here's one
For trying
Give it all and give again and find reply in
That new morning star
High on your heart's horizon

Look it over, so much to see
Did I say you should look at me
Not just now
When I'm lookin' around
When my guard is down
Pieces on the ground

In a twinklin' and blinkin' eye
You'll be singing a lullaby
Say just how you can turn it around
When a faith is found
Even on the ground

Lullaby, now don't you cry my Suz and Ryan
So, lullaby and tell them why
there's no
Denyin' that new mornin' star
High on your heart's horizon
There's a new morning star high on your
Heart's horizon

"Heaven And Earth"

"Heaven And Earth"



I've always believed in dreams
And that fantasies somehow come true
When dreaming of you
I've seen a moment's magic shine
Upon the darkest night
And fill it with light
I've heard the wind whisper melody
Of love meant to be
I've searched the heavens for you

I've searched heaven and earth
Chasing my dreams on the wings
Of everlasting love
I've searched through heaven and earth
Voicing the song my heart sings
Heaven help us find our love...love

I've wished on a thousand stars
Just for a sparkle to shine through
And lead me to you
Then you appeared as if by magic
Shined your love right into my life
Made everyday bright
So let the wind whisper melody
Of love meant to be
I've searched the heavens for you

I've searched heaven and earth
Chasing my dreams on the wings
Of everlasting love
I've searched through heaven and earth
Voicing the song my heart sings
Heaven help us we're in love
...Forever in love
...Forever we're in heaven
