I close my eyes

I concentrate 

On e’vry breath 

That I take 

I close my eyes

I breathe in deep    

What I don’t need 

I Release

I am right here 

I am right now

I am

I elevate

My consciousness

I’m grateful for

Moments like this

I close my eyes

I say a prayer

I feel the Spi- 

-rit everywhere

I am right here 

I am right now

I am

Breathing

I am breathing

Breathing

In and out

Breathing

I am breathing

Breathing

Here and now

You’ve got a lot to say and a lot to give 

And your eyes are all aglow

So lay your fears aside and just be yourself

Let the whole world know

You are a light  

You are the difference

You can choose to hide your soul inside

And bury it deep below

Or take a leap of faith and lay it on the line

Let your big heart show

You are a light 

You are the difference

You are bright and you are free

You can be who you want to be

You’ve got dreams to take you far 

Make you shine just like a star

You’ve got a lot to say and a lot to give 

And your heart is all aglow

So with your fears aside You just be yourself

Let the whole world know

You are a light 

You are the difference

(Your Turn!)

I’ve got a lot to say and a lot to give

and my heart is all aglow

I lay my fears aside, I just be myself

And let the whole world know

I am a light

I am the difference

A child looks through eyes of fear

A Mother holds her baby near

Someone here has got to feed this family

Dreams are lost and homes destroyed

So many are unemployed

Everyone uncertain of their destiny

But they’ve got hope and they’ve got faith; 

You can’t take these away

Though their world is crumbling, 

You will still hear them sing

Hallelujah, they’ve got hope and they’ve got faith!

Poverty and Politics

Addictions, crime and heretics

Everywhere my world falls into disarray 

Television on demand

While commitments end up in the can

I know deep down it doesn’t have to be this way

Cause I’ve got hope and I’ve got faith

You can’t take these away

Though my world is crumbling

You will still hear me sing

Hallelujah, I’ve got hope and I’ve got faith!

With all of my heart and with all of my soul

I still believe we can make a difference

We never sing so loud as when we sing as one

So let’s sing together…

We’ve got hope and we’ve got faith

You can’t take these away

Though our world is crumbling

You will still hear us sing

Hallelujah, we’ve got hope and we’ve got faith!

You need relief from the clouds and rain

The endless dripping on your window pane 

Another day like this’ll drive you insane 

You may become unglued

Crawl back in bed and you draw the shade

Not even caring if you don’t get paid

I’m telling you there’s a better way

To overcome the gloom

Let there be light

Keep it shinin’ through

Let it shine on me

I’ll let it shine on you 

Let there be light 

In the darkest places 

You shine it from the heart 

You’ll see it in their faces 

Let there be light 

In the places where everyone meets

people tend to focus on their defeats

Have you heard the word on the streets?

It’s all over the news

But you don’t need to be a party to that

Positivity is where it’s at

When it’s your turn and you’re at bat

Here’s what you gotta do…

Let there be light

Keep it shinin’ through

Let it shine on me

I’ll let it shine on you 

Let there be light 

In the darkest places 

You shine it from the heart 

You’ll see it in their faces 

Let there be light 

Can’t wait for the sweet life, no

Can’t wait for a miracle, no

Can’t wait till you come back home

Can’t wait for a miracle, no

Can’t wait for the sunshine, hey

Can’t wait for the blue sky, hey

Can’t wait for another day

Can’t wait for the blue sky, hey

To let you know     

I love you so

And find a way to let it show

To let you know        

I love you so

And find a way to let it show

We’re not ever promised tomorrow

Though sometimes we may forget 

I’d rather face a world of sorrows

Than live a lifetime of regret

Can’t wait for the sweet life, no

Can’t wait for a miracle, no

Can’t wait till you come back home

Can’t wait for a miracle, no

To let you know     

I love you so

And find a way to let it show

To let you know        

I love you so

And find a way to let it show

The universe is listening, so c’mon let me hear you sing

They way you do anything is how you do everything

So, give it everything you’ve got and let me know you’re in the ring

‘Cause everything is energy, and energy is everything

Get yourself up on your feet

Smile for the people you meet

‘Cause everything is energy, and energy is everything 

Even if you’re not a singer, c’mon let me hear you sing 

They way you sing anything is how you sing everything

Believe in your abilities and let me know you’re in the ring

‘Cause everything is energy, and energy is everything 

Words and deeds might not come easy

It’s hard just to get a start

But we’re not looking for perfection

We’re looking for your heart

Now everyone is listening, so c’mon let ‘em hear you sing 

They way you do anything is how you do everything

So, push yourself a little further, let ‘em know you’re in the ring

‘Cause everything is energy, and energy is everything
