    ohio
    Go Rest High on that Mountain

    I know your life
    On earth was troubled
    And only you could know the pain
    You weren't afraid to face the devil
    You were no stranger to the rain

    Go rest high on that mountain
    ‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done
    Go to Heaven a shoutin'
    Love for the Father and the Son

    Oh, how we cried the day you left us
    And gathered round your grave to grieve
    Wish I could see the angels’ faces
    When they hear your sweet voice sing

    Go rest high on that mountain
    ‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done
    Go to Heaven a shoutin'
    Love for the Father and the Son

    Go rest high on that mountain
    ‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done
    Go to Heaven a shoutin'
    Love for the Father and the Son

    Tag: Go to Heaven a shoutin'
    Love for the Father and the Son

    Gosh this came to mind.
    The Cure, post punk era.

    Everything you do is irresistible
    Everything you do is simply kissable
    Why can't I be you?

    I'll run around in circles
    'Til I run out of breath
    I'll eat you all up
    Or I'll just hug you to death
    You're so wonderful!
    Too good to be true!
    You make me
    Make me hungry for you

    Everything you do is simply delicate
    Everything you do is quite angelicate
    Why can't I be you?

    ok, im stuck in the 80's again...

    There'll be times
    When my crimes
    Will seem almost unforgivable
    I give in to sin
    Because you have to make this life livable
    But when you think I've had enough
    From your sea of love
    I'll take more than another riverful
    And I'll make it all worthwhile
    I'll make your heart smile

    Strangelove
    Strange highs and strange lows
    Strangelove
    That's how my love goes
    Strangelove
    Will you give it to me
    Will you take the pain
    I will give to you
    Again and again
    And will you return it

    Cry To Me ~ Solomon Burke

    When your baby leaves you all alone
    And nobody calls you on the phone
    Don't ya feel like cryin', don't ya feel like cryin'
    Well, here I am honey, c'mon, you cry to me

    When you're all alone in your lonely room
    And there's nothing but the smell of her perfume
    Don't ya feel like cryin', don't ya feel like cryin'
    Don't ya feel like cryin', c'mon, c'mon, you cry to me

    Nothin' can be sadder than a glass of wine alone
    Loneliness, loneliness, such a waste of time, oh yeah
    You don't ever have to walk alone, oh you see, oh c'mon
    Take my hand, baby won't ya walk with me? Oh yeah

    When you're waitin' for a voice to come
    In the night but there is no one
    Don't ya feel like cryin'
    (Cry to me)
    Don't ya feel like cryin'
    (Cry to me)

    Don't ya feel like cry-cry-cryin'
    (Cry to me, cry to me)
    Don't ya feel like cry-cry-cryin'
    (Cry to me)

    All You Need Is Love ~ The Beatles

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-pFAFsTFTI

    Love, love, love
    Love, love, love
    Love, love, love

    There's nothing you can do that can't be done
    Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
    Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game
    It's easy

    Nothing you can make that can't be made
    No one you can save that can't be saved
    Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time
    It's easy

    All you need is love
    All you need is love
    All you need is love, love
    Love is all you need

    Love, love, love
    Love, love, love
    Love, love, love

    All you need is love
    All you need is love
    All you need is love, love
    Love is all you need

    Nothing you can know that isn't known
    Nothing you can see that isn't shown
    Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be
    It's easy

    All you need is love
    All you need is love
    All you need is love, love
    Love is all you need

    She Talks To Angels ~ The Black Crowes

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-HamRO4nC8 <-----crazy good unplugged version of the song.

    She never mentions the word addiction
    In certain company
    Yes, she'll tell you she's an orphan
    After you meet her family

    She paints her eyes as black as night now
    Pulls those shades down tight
    Yeah, she gives a smile when the pain come
    The pain gonna make everything alright

    Says she talks to angels
    They call her out by her name
    Oh yeah, she talks to angels
    Says they call her out by her name

    She keeps a lock of hair in her pocket
    She wears a cross around her neck
    Yes, the hair is from a little boy
    And the cross is someone she has not met
    Not yet

    Says she talks to angels
    Says they all know her name
    Oh yeah, she talks to angels
    Says they call her out by her name

    She don't know no lover
    None that I ever seen
    Yeah, to her that ain't nothin'
    But to me, yeah me
    Means everything

    She paints her eyes as black as night now
    She pulls those shades down tight
    Oh yeah, there's a smile when the pain comes
    The pain gonna make everything alright
    Alright, yeah heah

    She talks to angels
    Says they call her out by her name
    Oh, yeah, yeah, angels
    Call her out by her name
    Oh, ooh, oh, oh, angels
    They call her out by her name

    Oh, oh, oh, she talks to angels
    They call her out
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Call her out
    Don't you know that they
    Call her out by her name?
     
  11. Lover, I just can't believe it's turned
    You're tearing my life apart
    There's no simple answer
    Here I am, just standing in circles
    And the logic is turning me round
    My mind keeps holding
    Only one thought
    When you gonna call
    I think it's worth the time
    How you gonna change
    All these endless nights
    If you could stop
    Leading me around
    You're never gonna change
    All these endless nights
    Tender, the way
    That you touched me now
    We were taking our fears away
    There won't be no reason
    Just a well rehearsed explanation
    Though the love
    That is turning inside
    Keeps on twisting
    Twisting my mind
    When you gonna call
    I think it's worth the time
    How you gonna change
    All these endless nights
    If you could stop
    Leading me around
    You're never gonna change
    All these endless, endless nights
    I wish that you could change
    All these endless, endless nights
    And the hope
    That is holding me here
    It's starting to die, oh, no
    Is it ever gonna stop
    When you gonna call
    I think it's worth the time
    How you gonna change
    All these endless nights
    If you could stop
    Leading me around
    You're never gonna change
    All these endless, endless nights
    I wish that you could change
    All these endless, endless nights
    All these endless
    Endless nights now
    When you gonna call
    I think it's worth the time
    I wish that you would call now
    When you gonna change
    All these endless, endless nights

    Thank you for sharing that Nathan. Bach is one of my favorite composers - I sometimes meditate to his music and I love listening to him while I work. It truly does help me with staying calm and focused.

    This is another of my favorite works by JSB - Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring

    Mary, did you know
    that your Baby Boy would one day walk on water?
    Mary, did you know
    that your Baby Boy would save our sons and daughters?
    Did you know
    that your Baby Boy has come to make you new?
    This Child that you delivered will soon deliver you.

    Mary, did you know
    that your Baby Boy will give sight to a blind man?
    Mary, did you know
    that your Baby Boy will calm the storm with His hand?
    Did you know
    that your Baby Boy has walked where angels trod?
    When you kiss your little Baby you kissed the face of God?

    Mary did you know.. Ooo Ooo Ooo

    The blind will see.
    The deaf will hear.
    The dead will live again.
    The lame will leap.
    The dumb will speak
    The praises of The Lamb.

    Mary, did you know
    that your Baby Boy is Lord of all creation?
    Mary, did you know
    that your Baby Boy would one day rule the nations?
    Did you know
    that your Baby Boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
    The sleeping Child you're holding is the Great, I Am.

    "Imagine"
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVg2EJvvlF8


    Imagine there's no heaven
    It's easy if you try
    No hell below us
    Above us only sky
    Imagine all the people
    Living for today...

    Imagine there's no countries
    It isn't hard to do
    Nothing to kill or die for
    And no religion too
    Imagine all the people
    Living life in peace...

    You may say I'm a dreamer
    But I'm not the only one
    I hope someday you'll join us
    And the world will be as one

    Imagine no possessions
    I wonder if you can
    No need for greed or hunger
    A brotherhood of man
    Imagine all the people
    Sharing all the world...

    You may say I'm a dreamer
    But I'm not the only one
    I hope someday you'll join us
    And the world will live as one

    Both are beautiful. I love songs that I know all the words to.

    I asked my daughter if she saw the "Kiss" float in the Thanksgiving Day Parade and she said Who?
    Sad. LOL!

    Throwing it all away.

    Need I say I love you
    Need I say I care
    Need I say that emotion's
    Something we don't share

    I don't want to be sitting here
    Trying to deceive you
    'Cause you know, I know baby
    That I don't wanna go

    We cannot live together
    We cannot live apart
    And that's the situation
    I've known it from the start

    Every time that I look at you
    And I can see the future
    'Cause you know I know, babe
    That I don't wanna go

    Throwing it all away, throwing it all away
    Is there nothing that I can say
    To make you change your mind?
    I watch the world go round and round
    And see mine turning upside down
    Throwing it all away

    Now, who will light up the darkness?
    And who will hold your hand?
    Who will find you the answers
    When you don't understand?

    Why should I have to be the one
    Who has to convince you?
    'Cause you know, I know baby
    That I don't wanna go

    Someday you'll be sorry
    Someday when you're free
    Memories will remind you
    That our love was meant to be

    But late at night when you call my name
    The only sound you'll hear
    Is the sound of your voice calling
    Calling after me

    Just throwing it all away, throwing it all away
    And there's nothing that I can say
    We're throwing it all away, yes we're throwing it all away
    Yes, we're throwing it all away
