::Isn't It Amazing::
Isn't it amazing
Isn't it amazing
We follow a winding path
Through towns of tears in laughter
Moved by the one spirit
And the spirit's moving faster
Closer as the great eagle soars
And we follow...steady
Steady as she goes
And every cry is a song
And every song is a prayer
And our prayer must be heard
Fill the air
And every cry is a song
And every song is a prayer
And our prayer must be heard
Fill the air
Got to find the right note
How to make the right tone
How to keep it true to ourselves
Where we are coming from
What matters most is us
What matters most is now
What matters is this
How it comes and where and how... passion
Every cry is a song
Every song is a prayer
And our prayers must be heard
To fill the air
Help us make peace
Amazing grace
Morning has broken
Imagine
Trumpets
Knocking on heaven's door
In the garden
Forever young
No woman no cry
Ag criost an siol
Open up, open up the doors to your heart
You might need somebody, you might need somebody
Thank you for letting me be myself again
