A Million Dreams

I close my eyes and I can see
The world that's waiting up for me
That I call my own
Through the dark, through the door
Through where no one's been before
But it feels like home
They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy
They can say, they can say I've lost my mind
I don't care, I don't care, so call me crazy
We can live in a world that we design.

'Cause every night I lie in bed
The brightest colors fill my head
A million dreams are keeping me awake
I think of what the world could be
A vision of the one I see
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make

There's a house we can build
Every room inside is filled
With things from far away
The special things I compile
Each one there to make you smile
On a rainy day
They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy
They can say, they can say we've lost our minds
I don't care, I don't care if they call us crazy
Runaway to a world that we design

Every night I lie in bed
The brightest colors fill my head
A million dreams are keeping me awake
I think of what the world could be
A vision of the one I see
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make

However big, however small
Let me be part of it all
Share your dreams with me
You may be right, you may be wrong
But say that you'll bring me along
To the world you see.

Every night I lie in bed
The brightest colors fill my head
A million dreams are keeping me awake
A million dreams, a million dreams
I think of what the world could be
A vision of the one I see
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make


Any Dream Will Do

I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain
To see for certain what I thought I knew
Far far away, someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping
Any dream will do

I wore my coat, with golden lining
Bright colours shining, wonderful and new
And in the east, the dawn was breaking
And the world was waking
Any dream will do

A crash of drums, a flash of light
My golden coat flew out of sight
The colours faded into darkness
I was left alone

May I return to the beginning
The light is dimming, and the dream is too
The world and I, we are still waiting
Still hesitating
Any dream will do

A crash of drums, a flash of light
My golden coat flew out of sight
The colours faded into darkness
I was left alone

May I return to the beginning
The light is dimming, and the dream is too
The world and I, we are still waiting
Still hesitating
Any dream will do

. . . Any dream will do
. . . Any dream will do
. . . Any dream will do


Moana Mash Up

I’ve been staring at the edge of the water
long as I can remember,
never really knowing why.
I wish I could be the perfect daughter,
but I come back to the water
no matter how hard I try.
Every turn I take, every trail I track,
Every path I make, every road leads back
to the place I know where I cannot go,
where I long to be.
See the line where the sky meets the sea, it calls me,
and no one knows how far it goes,
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me,
one day I’ll know.
If I go there’s just no telling how far I’ll go.

I know everybody on this island
seems so happy on this island,
Everything is by design.
I know everybody on this island
has a role on this island
so maybe I can roll with mine.
I can lead with pride I can make us strong,
I’ll be satisfied if I play along,
but the voice inside sings a different song,
what is wrong with me?
See the light as it shines on the sea: it’s blinding,
but no one knows how deep it goes,
And it seems like it’s calling out to me, so come find me,
and let me know.
What’s beyond that line? will I cross that line?

Aue, aue! Nuku i mua,
Te mamulele e tataki e.
Aue, aue, Te fenua, te malie,
Nae ko hakilia kaiga e.

We read the wind and the sky, when the sun is high.
We sail the length of the seas on the ocean breeze.
At night we name every star,
We know where we are
We know who we are, who we are.
Away, away, We set a course to find.
A brand new island everywhere we roam.
Away, away! we keep our island in our mind,
And when it’s time to find home
we know the way!

See the line where the sky meets the sea
Aue! Aue!
It calls me
Nuku i mua.
and no one knows how far it goes,
Te mamulele a tataki iei.
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me,
Aue! Aue! Te fenua te malie.
one day I’ll know.
Nae ko hakilia.

We know the Way!


Viva La Vida

I used to rule the world,
Seas would rise when I gave the word,
Now in the morning, I sleep alone,
Sweep the streets I used to own.

I used to roll the dice,
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes.
Listen as the crowd would sing
2Now the old king is dead! Long live the king"
One minute I held the key,
Next the walls were closed on me,
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand.

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing,
Roman Catholic choirs are singing,
Be my mirror, my sword and shield,
My missionaries in a foreign field,
For some reason I can't explain,
I know St Peter won't call my name,
never an honest word,
And that was when I ruled the world.

It was a wicked and wild wind,
Blew down the doors to let me in,
Shattered windows and the sound of drums,
People couldn't believe what I'd become,
Revolutionaries wait,
For my head on a silver plate,
Just a puppet on a lonely string,
Ah, who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing,
Roman Calvary choirs are singing,
Be my mirror, my sword and shield,
My missionaries in a foreign field,
For some reason I can't explain,
I know Saint Peter won't call my name,
Never an honest word,
And that was when I ruled the world.

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman CAtholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh


We Are The World

There comes a time when we heed a certain call,
When the world must come together as one.
There are people dying
and it's time to lend a hand to life,
The greatest gift of all.
We can't go on pretending day-by-day
that someone, somewhere will soon make a change.
We're all a part of God's great big family,
And the truth, you know, love is all we need.

We are the world we are the children,
We are the ones who make a brighter day
so let's start giving.
There's a choice we're making,
We're saving our own lives,
It's true, we make a better day, just you and me.

Well, send them your heart so they know that someone cares,
so their cries for help will not be in vain.
We can't let them suffer
No we cannot turn away,
right now they need a helping hand.

We are the world we are the children,
We are the ones who make a brighter day
so let's start giving.
There's a choice we're making,
We're saving our own lives,
It's true, we make a better day, just you and me.

When you're down and out there seems no hope at all.
But if you just believe, there's no way we can fall.
Well let us realise that a change will only comewhen we stand together as one, as one.

We are the world we are the children,
We are the ones who make a brighter day
so let's start giving.
There's a choice we're making,
We're saving our own lives,
It's true, we make a better day, just you and me.

Just you and me!
We are the world,
we are the children, the children, the children!

Let it Be

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be

And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be

And when the broken-hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer
Let it be

For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer
Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer
Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be

And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow
Let it be

I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
There will be an answer
Let it be
(Repeat)


2016-2017


The Climb

1. I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But, there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"
Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I got to keep trying
'Got to keep my head held high

CHORUS

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
'Always going to be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm going to have to lose
It's not about how fast I get there
It's not about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

2. The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm going to remember most, yeah
Just got to keep going
And I, I've got to be strong
Just keep pushing on

CHORUS x2


Somewhere Only We Know

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting tired and I need someone to rely on

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on

And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything,
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know

Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need someone to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
'Cause this could be the end of everything,
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know?


I Watch the Sunrise

I watch the sunrise lighting the sky,
Casting its shadows near.
And on this morning bright though it be,
I feel those shadows near me.

But you are always close to me
Following all my ways.
May I be always close to you
Following all your ways, Lord.

I watch the sunlight shine through the clouds,
Warming the earth below.
And at the mid-day, life seems to say:
"I feel your presence near me."

For you are always . . .

I watch the sunset fading away,
Lighting the clouds with sleep.
And as the evening closes its eyes,
I feel your presence near me.

For you are always . . .

I watch the moonlight guarding the night,
waiting till morning comes.
The air is silent, earth is at rest -
only your peace is near me.

For you are always . . .


Here I am Lord

I, the Lord of sea and sky,
I have heard My people cry.
All who dwell in dark and sin,
My hand will save.
I who made the stars of night,
I will make their darkness bright.
Who will bear My light to them?
Whom shall I send?

Here I am Lord, is it I, Lord?
I have heard You calling in the night.
I will go Lord, if You lead me.
I will hold Your people in my heart.

I, the Lord of snow and rain,
I have borne my people's pain.
I have wept for love of them, They turn away.
I will break their hearts of stone,
Give them hearts for love alone.
I will speak My word to them
Whom shall I send?

Here I am Lord ...

I, the Lord of wind and flame
I will tend the poor and lame.
I will set a feast for them,
My hand will save
Finest bread I will provide,
Till their hearts be satisfied.
I will give My life to them,
Whom shall I send?

Here I am Lord ...


Proud

I look into the window of my mind
Reflections of the fears I know I've left behind
I step out of the ordinary,
I can feel my soul ascending
I am on my way, can't stop me now and you can do the same, yeah

CHORUS
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
What have you done today to make you feel proud?

Still so many answers I don't know
Realise that to question is how we grow
So I step out of the ordinary
I can feel my soul ascending
I am on my way, can't stop me now
You can do the same, yeah

CHORUS

Yeah, we need a change Yeah,
Do it today, yeah
I can feel my spirit rising
Change, yeah, we need a change
Yeah, so do it today, yeah
'Cause I can see a clear horizon

CHORUS

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people?
Just make that break for freedom
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?


Opportunity

Under the glow of the very bright lights
I turn my face towards the warm night sky
And I am not afraid of a thousand eyes
When they're above five hundred smiles
Oh I used to think
What wouldn't I give
For a moment like this?
This moment this gift
Oh, now look at me
And this opportunity
Is standing right in front of me
But one thing I know
It's only part luck and so
I'm putting on my best show
Under the spotlight
I'm starting my life
Big dreams becoming real tonight

So look at me
And this opportunity
You're witnessing my moment, you see?
(My big opportunity)
Now I'm right here and it's time
'Cause this is real
This is real and it's all mine.

I'm not afraid, afraid to fly
When it's above 500 smiles

Oh I used to think
What I wouldn't give
For a moment like this?
This moment, this gift
Oh, now look at me
And this opportunity
Is standing right in front of me
But one thing I know
It's only part luck and so
I'm putting on my best show
Under the spotlight
I'm starting my life
Big dreams becoming real tonight
So, look at me and this opportunity
You're witnessing my moment, you see?
My big opportunity
I won't waste it
I guarantee


Flashlight

When tomorrow comes
I'll be on my own
Feeling frightened of
The things that I don't know
When tomorrow comes
Tomorrow comes
Tomorrow comes
And though the road is long
I look up to the sky
And in the dark I found, lost hope that I won't fly
And I sing along, I sing along, and I sing along

CHORUS
I got all I need when I got you and I
I look around me, and see a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me, through the night
Kick start my heart when you shine it in my eyes
Can't lie, it's a sweet life
Stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me, through the night
'Cause you're my flashlight
You're my flashlight , you're my flashlight

I see the shadows long beneath the mountain top
I'm not afraid when the rain won't stop
'Cause you light the way
You light the way,
You light the way

CHORUS - ( You're my flashlight etc )

CHORUS

You're getting me, getting me through the night
'Cause you're my flashlight
'Cause you're my flashlight
You're my flashlight

Ooh ooh ... You're my flashlight, light light ...


Seek Ye First

Seek ye first the kingdom of God
And His righteousness;
And all these things shall be added unto you.
Hallelu, Hallelujah!

Man shall not live by bread alone,
But by every word
That proceeds from the mouth of God.
Hallelu, Hallelujah!

Ask, and it shall be given unto you;
Seek, and you shall find.
Knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
Hallelu, Hallelujah!


7 Years Old

Once I was 7 years old my mama told me,
"Go make yourself some friends, or you'll be lonely." Once I was 7 years old

It was a big, big world, but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By 11, pushing limits, we were learning quicker,
Never rich, so we were out to make that steady figure

Once I was 11 years old my daddy told me,
"Go get yourself a life, or you'll be lonely." Once I was 11 years old

I always had that dream, like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about that glory, just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me

Once I was 20 years old my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely. Once I was 20 years old

I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major


I got my friends with me, at least those in favour
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later

Once I was 20 years old my story got told
I was writing about everything I saw before me, Once I was 20 years old

Soon we'll be 30 years old, Our songs have been sold
We've travelled around the world, and we're still roaming Soon we'll be 30 years old

I'm still learning about life my woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs and I can tell them stories
Most of my friends are with me some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind, My brother, I'm still sorry

Soon I'll be 60 years old My daddy got 61
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month

Soon I'll be 60 years old Will I think the world is cold,
or will I have a lot of children who can warm me. Soon I'll be 60 years old

Soon I'll be 60 years old Will I think the world is cold,
or will I have a lot of children who can warm me. Soon I'll be 60 years old

Once I was 7 years old my mama told me,
"Go make yourself some friends, or you'll be lonely."
Once I was 7 years old, Once I was 7 years old


2015-2016


The Rose

Some say love, it is a river
That drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger
, An endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
And you its only seed.

It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give,
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long,
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong,
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose.


Hallelujah - Get Happy

We're heading 'cross the river, wash your sins away in the tide
It's all so peaceful on the other side.

Sing

Some words they can't be spoken only sung,
So hear a thousand voices shouting love.
There's a place, there's a time in this life
When you sing what you are feeling,
Find your feet, stand your ground,
Don't you see right now the world is listening to what we say?

Sing it louder, sing it clearer, knowing everyone will hear you,
Make some noise, find your voice tonight.
Sing it stronger, sing together, make this moment last forever,
Old and young shouting love tonight.

To sing we've had a lifetime to wait (wait, lifetime to wait)
And see a thousand faces celebrate (celebrate, faces celebrate)
You brought hope, you brought life,
Conquered fear, no it wasn't always easy,
Stood your ground, kept your faith,
Don't you see right now the world is listening to what we say?

Sing it louder, sing it clearer, knowing everyone will hear you,
Make some noise, find your voice tonight.
Sing it stronger, sing together, make this moment last forever,
Old and young shouting love tonight.

Some words they can't be spoken only sung,
To hear a thousand voices shouting love and light and hope.

Just sing; just sing; just sing; just sing. Come all and sing

Sing it louder, sing it clearer, knowing everyone will hear you,
Sing it stronger, sing together, make this moment last forever,
Old and young, shouting love tonight

Hear a thousand voices shouting love.



Let the River Run

Let the river run,
let all the dreamers wake the nation.
Come, the New Jerusalem.

Silver cities rise,
the morning lights
the streets that meet them,
and sirens call them on
with a song.

It's asking for the taking.
Trembling, shaking.
Oh, my heart is aching.

We're coming to the edge,
running on the water,
coming through the fog,
your sons and daughters.

We the great and small
stand on a star
and blaze a trail of desire
through the darkening dawn.

It's asking for the taking.
Come run with me now,
the sky is the colour of blue
you've never even seen
in the eyes of love.

Oh, my heart is aching.
We're coming to the edge,
running on the water,
coming through the fog,
your sons and daughters.

It's asking for the taking.
Trembling, shaking.
Oh, my heart is aching.
We're coming to the edge,
running on the water,
coming through the fog,
your sons and daughters.

Let the river run,
let all the dreamers
wake the nation.
Come, the New Jerusalem


You Raise Me Up

When I am down, and, oh, my soul, so weary
When troubles come, and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.

You raise me up to more than I can be.


In a Wheatfield

Walking through a golden wheatfield, a young man goes a dreaming.
Though many riches does it yield, for him they have no meaning.
Rising early in the dawn he dreams but of his lady, on such a lovely splendid morn, she'll give her answer, maybe.

When the sea is salt no more, when the water flows up river and when the grass should never grow it's then I'll cease to love her.
Already thinking of the day they'll be as one forever.
He still awaits to hear her say, that she will leave him never.

Walking through a golden wheatfield, a young man goes a dreaming.
Though many riches does it yield, for him they have no meaning.
Rising early in the dawn he dreams but of his lady, on such a lovely splendid morn, she'll give her answer, maybe.


Believe

When I look up to the stars,
There's a burning deep inside me,
And I feel a power growing in my soul.
There is something I can sense,
Deep within a dream to guide me,
And I know that I am reaching for my goal.

I can do anything at all,
I can climb the highest mountains,
I can feel the ocean calling wild and free,
I can be anything I want, with this hope to drive me onwards,
If I can just believe, in me.

When the skies are dark and grey,
We still know the sun is shining,
Though it's out of sight, it's light is glowing still.
And as long as I believe, there is nothing I can't wish for,
Not a dream that I'm unable to fulfil.

I can do anything at all,
I can climb the highest mountains,
I can feel the ocean calling wild and free,
I can be anything I want, with this hope to drive me onwards,
If I can just believe, in me.

And whatever it takes I'll find it somehow,
Whatever it needs I'll show I'm strong.
Whatever it takes I'll make it happen:
Finding out where I belong.

While the world is spinning round, I can sometimes lose direction
And I know how hard it is to find my way.
But with friends around to care there is nothing I can't handle
And I'll face the future treasuring each day.

I can do anything at all,
I can climb the highest mountains,
I can feel the ocean calling wild and free,
I can be anything I want, with this hope to drive me onwards,
If I can just believe, in me.




Dona nobis pacem
Ave Maria
Friends Forget the Cares that Bore Us - Mozart

Friends forget the cares that bore us
Come and join the jolly chorus
A song of praise, to happy days
Let us be merry one and all.

You sit so idly in your places
With gloomy looks upon your faces
Come on rejoice, and raise your voice
To happy days a song of praise,
a song of praise.

Are you like donkeys far to old to pray?
Are you like donkeys far to old to pray?
Sing out! Sing out!
Sing out now loud and strong
Laugh and be gay.

We toast romance and joyous song
May they be with us all life long
Long live -- long live --
Long live, romance and song.


All Around the World

Chorus: All around the world there's singing,
Happy Christmas Day,
Sun or snow the bells are ringing
All around the world today.

From North to South, from toe to mouth,
Music fills our ears,
From east to west the world is blessed,
Music calms our fears.

Chorus

From deserts dry to mountains high,
Music fills the air,
From fields of flowers to high rise towers,
Music's everywhere.

Chorus

From country lanes to crowded trains,
Music fills the skies,
From camel's backs to straw-made shacks,
Music's the reply.

Chorus: All around the world there's singing,
Happy Christmas Day,
Sun or snow the bells are ringing
All around the world.
All around the world there's singing,
Happy Christmas Day,
Sun or snow the bells are ringing
All around the world today,
All around the world today.


A Starry Night

It was on a starry night
When the hills were bright,
Earth lay sleeping, sleeping calm and still.
Then in a cattle shed
In a manger bed,
A boy was born king of all the world.

And all the angels sang for him
The bells of heaven rang for him,
For a boy was born king of all the world.
And all the angels sang for him,
The bells of heaven rang for him,
For a boy was born king of all the world.

Soon shepherds came that way
Where the baby lay
And were kneeling, kneeling by his side,
And their hearts believed again
For the peace of men,
For a boy was born king of all the world.

And all the angels sang for him ....


Children of the World

Chorus: Children of the world celebrate Christmas
Children of the world wherever you are,
Children of the world singing together,
Make the light of hope shine like a star.

Join together,
Let our hands circle the earth,
Join together,
Celebrate Jesus' birth.

Chorus: Children of the world celebrate Christmas
Children of the world wherever you are,
Children of the world singing together,
Make the light of hope shine like a star.
Shine like a star,
Wherever you are,
Children of the World.


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 the angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"

Christ by highest heav'n 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 man to dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"

Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Son of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings
Ris'n 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 newborn King!"
