This Christmas Wish
LYRICS
I'd like to wish you a Merry Christmas
I'd like to wish a Happy New Year
So when it comes to this
Christmas wish
I'll embrace and hold dear

They call you the forgotten one
Mother Nature's son
Forgot that to keep you in
Is a mortal sin
Time to think and think again
About letting you out

I'd like to wish you a Merry Christmas
I'd like to wish a Happy New Year
So when it comes to this
Christmas wish
I'll embrace and hold dear

They say your only goal:
To save our soul
By spreading the Christmas cheer
And ringing in the new year
For it's not to late to believe
Give to receive
Chords: C D C E / C F G C / E C / C6 C

Got gifts
Uplifts
Got plenty is it ever too many?
Going to fly around the world
Loving giving the loving

Pack my bag and pack it tight
It's going to be a long, long flight
All these gifts to give tonight
Got plenty is it ever too many?
Going to fly around the world

In the presence of the presents
In the present with the presents
In the midst of future for sure
Going to fly around the world
We'll let the story be told

The Love Down Below
LYRICS
Take off running
Spread your wings
Brings beautiful things

Flapping less
And, soar some more
Like never before
Seeing a new way
Today

Looking down, way down below
Know
The love from above

Wonderland
LYRICS
Heaven on Earth
Given a birth
Life unfurled
Joy to our world
On a wander
Stop to ponder
In a wonder wonderland
Taking her hand I understand
Glories of the grand

Won't let them waste away
Precious is the day
Take advantage of the birth
For what it's worth
On a wander
Stop to ponder
In a wonder wonderland
Taking her hand I understand
Glories of the grand
Chords: F Bb C7 / F Db Db / F C Eb F



Look Up to the Sky
LYRICS
Why am I so lucky
Living life with no need for pity
Look up to the sky...
I have to wonder why

Feeling with empathy
No need for your sympathy
Look up to the sky...
I have to wonder why

Oh, Lord
Can you spare a word
Have you heard
I scream, "What does it mean?"
Look up to the sky...
I have to wonder why

Is it just me
Or can everybody see
How to be and be living free
Look up to the sky...
I have to wonder why

From now through eternity
There's nothing better that I can see
Graciously
I thank thee
Look up to the sky...
Praise till the day I die
Chords: Asus4 A9 A A7 / Em C G D A




You Are The Angel
LYRICS
You are the angel
Spread your wings
I'll be your breeze
The wings sing
Let's "sure" to the highest height
Soar down and save without might

You can do anything
Lifted by the light
The Glory will bring
Insight with in sight
Sight within sight
Insight within sight
Chords: C Em D / D C / C Em D / C Em Am / Em Am; 128 BPM with time changes



Sun Day
LYRICS
Could be the last day
We see the sun this way
The seasons are changing
And so's the sky
In the eye
And, so am I

Could be the first day
We see the sun this way
The times are changing
No need to wonder why
In the eye
And, so am I

Could be the next day
A new star will shine this way
The age is changing
Tomorrow try
In the eye
And, so am I
Chords: D C / Em A; 110 BPM



Snowballed
LYRICS
It all started at the beginning
Well, not all
Just the first thing
Then, the ball
Was rolling
A snowball in freefall
Down the side
On the slide
Of the mountain
Picking up mass
Rather fast
And, yes, indeed
Picking up speed
Mass passes masses amasses
Quantum momentum
Chords: Bb C D BbM7 Bb9 D7 D7aug; 63 BPM picking up speed



Throwing A Ball
LYRICS
Come one. Come all.
The Homo sapiens are throwing a ball
From near. From far.
It doesn't really matter where you are

Celebrate the date
It's never too late
The Homo sapiens are having a ball
From near. From far.
It doesn't really matter where you are

A celebration of the dead
The eulogy sung not said
The Homo sapiens are throwing a ball
From near. From far.
It doesn't really matter where you are

A celebration of the living
Celebrate the love we're giving
The Homo sapiens are having a ball
From near. From far.
It doesn't really matter where you are

When I'm dead and gone
Celebrate! Go on!
Chords: A E D A / G D A



Wishing Well
LYRICS
What happens when an angel comes alive
Wisemen realize
... and arrive
Into the wishing well
Angel
Wishing well

What happens when an angel comes alive
Is given birth
Will there be love
And, peace on Earth
Into the wishing well
Angel
Wishing well

Quite sure
All Men are created like Her
Imagine... in Her image
The more you age
The more it fades
Parts ways
Hold on, son
Chords: B9 B / F# E B; 160 BPM



It's Getting Cold
LYRICS
It's getting cold
Seasons unfold
That time of year
Solstice draws near
The nip in the air
Takes memories there
With presents under the tree
We're singing merrily
How blessed are we
All Men

Fresh snowfall scent
More memories lent
Sound of a bell
Wishing all well
The nip in the air
Our memories share
With presents under the tree
We're singing merrily
How blessed are we
All Men
Chords: Cm Baug / F C G7 C; 67 BPM



Holiday Bound
LYRICS
Gather round enjoy the sound
Hope and joy and cheer are found
All around
Holiday bound
Fill your cup and drink it up
Make the most... propose a toast
All "a round"
Holiday bound
They say this is the day
Earth was given the birth
Make the most of a heavenly host
Propose a toast
Refreshment in merriment
Feel love come in from above
Spirit moving near it
Can you hear it?
Cheer it!

They say this is the day
Earth was given the birth
Make the most of a heavenly host
Propose a toast
Chords: C Eb Bb F Fm7 / Bb F C7 F



Feel
LYRICS
Can you feel it, too
We know what to do
Can you feel the temperature dropping
Look outside! The snow is falling
Stop on by we'll take it higher
Let time transpire by the fire
Can you feel the mistletoe calling
Get your present and stocking stuffing
Give the dog a Christmas bone
Then, we can be all alone
Chords: C / F C Bb C; 131 BPM



The Message
LYRICS
Wrap yourself in your birthday suit
Christmas is on its way
For at the core... at the root
The birth is the day
[The birthing earthling
To day, today, too day]
The day you were born
And now forever yearn
We learn
Heaven and hell torn

In "The End" the message you send
It the answer you receive
And would you believe
The message your receive
Do you believe?
(Miss Christmas)
Chords: Eb / F Eb / F E Eb; 88 BPM



Partners In Mortality
LYRICS
If you offer your hand, I'll take it
If you offer to help, we'll make it
'til death do I die I won't quit
You and I (Touch the sky)
Partners in mortality
Yours in eternity
Mine in brevity
Humanity

Servant to your authority
Of freewill and autonomy
... though in brevity
Humanity

Soul-dier in unity
Thriving on giving
Among the living
Humanity
(In brevity)
Chords: A / Em G A / A G D / D G A



Follow A Star
LYRICS
How bizarre
To wonder how far
To follow a star
Plan to make it my destiny
To clearly see
On the road, my destination --
To infinity
How bizarre
To wonder how far
To follow the star

No gold, frankincense or myrrh
Who could ask for more
Though I'm not a wealthy king
In the heart, all of my love I bring

How bizarre
To wander so far
To follow a star
Plan to make it my odyssey
To finally see
On the road, my destination --
To infinity
How bizarre
To wander so far
To follow the star
(chorus)
Chords: F C D / G D; 80 BPM



(That Baby is too Cute) To Sacrifice
LYRICS
When that feeling comes over me
Oh, Lord, makes me want to plead
Oh, please! Oh, no, oh, please
Don't let him bleed
Beyond absolute
That baby is too damn cute
Under advise
Would be be shame to sacrifice
And on and on and on it goes
Personal demons are the greatest foes
Forgive the sinner from all his woes
So why oh why must he die?
If we all promise not to sin
We pray he can go on living
And on and on and on it goes
Personal demons are the greatest foes
Forgive the sinner from all his woes
Chords: C Em Am / Am C



Good Cheer
LYRICS
Any cheer is good cheer
A New Year
365 around the sun
Another year done

You choose 
Holiday blues
You lose
The Good Knews
You rear
Holiday cheer
Hold dear
The New Year
Happy New Year

Any cheer is good cheer
A New Year
Night and daylight
Are looking bright
(chorus)
Chords: Gb (Gb Eb Db) Eb (Eb Db Bb); 112 BPM



Born Again
LYRICS
There's one thing in life that's for sure
You've got to love love...
And all that's in store
Never know when you'll hit the floor
Soon you'll be knocking on heaven's door
Just like that
Right back for more

Dear God,
I pray you recycle
Don't want to be Gabriel or Michael
A highfalutin angel or laudy daudy
I want flesh and bone... give me a body
Same as before
Just like that
Right back for more

Appreciate what I've been given
But, I can't get enough of this living
Never bored to death nor to die for
Not "The End"... to be continued... another door
Just like that
Right back for more
Just like that....
Chords: E / E A D C G E

At Your Service
LYRICS
Humbled...
In your presence
I mumbled,
"Your loyal peasant."
I serve at your will
Deserve to serve
Without you...
I'm nil
Indent
Servant
"Have none. Will Travel."
In the event,
I may...
After all,
I'm going that way
Indentured
Indent sure
Servant, Sir, vent!
The movement
Of the people
From the steeple
Chords: Am Dm / Em Dm Am; 150 BPM



Blue Christmas
Made famous by Elvis Presley 
Written by Billy Hayes and Jay W. Johnson
LYRICS
I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same, dear, if you're not here with me
And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That's when those blue memories start calling
You'll be doin' all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
You'll be doin' all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
Chords: E B B7 E / E E7 A F# B B7
