New Dawn

Let me sail, let me sail, let the Orinoco flow
Let me reach, let me beach on the shores of Tripoli
Let me sail, let me sail, let me crash upon your shore
Let me reach, let me beach far beyond the yellow sea

Sail away

From Bissau to Palau in the shade of Avalon
From Fiji to Tiree and the Isles of Ebony
From Peru to Cebu, feel the power of Babylon
From Bali to Cali far beneath the Coral Sea

Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, up – Adieu

From the North to the South, Ebudae unto Khartoum
From the deep Sea of Clouds to the Island of the Moon
Carry me on the waves to the lands I’ve never been
Carry me on the waves to the lands I’ve never seen

I wish the dawn may know nothing of the name that I told the night
I wish like mist in the morning it drifts away silently to hide away

So carry away to never see light of day
keep hidden away for eternity – a secret song

I dream the day could proclaim the love of the name that I told the night
I dream that glorious daylight uncovers the mystery I hide away

I pray to hide from the sunset the secret I told the day
I pray to carry away the love and drift away silently and hide away

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Et in terra pax hominibus
Benedicimus te laudamus
Adoramus te, gloria

Gracias agimus
propter magnam gloriam tuam
Quoniam tu solus sanctus
Dominus tu solus altissimus

Qui tolis peccata mundi
miserere nobis
Qui sedes ad dexteram Patris
miserere nobis

Omnipotens Deus Pater
Agnus Dei, Rex coelestis, Deus Pater

For all who need comfort for all those who mourn
all those whom we cherished will be reborn
All those whom we love but see no more
they are not perished, but gone before
and lie in the tender arms of he who died for us all to set us free
from hatred and anger and cruel tyranny
may they rest in peace – and rise in glory

All suffering and sorrow will be no more
they’ll vanish like shadows at heaven’s door
All anguish and grieving will one day be healed
when all of God’s purpose will be revealed.
Though now for a season lost from sight
the innocent slain in the blindness of ‘right’
are now in the warmth of God’s glorious light
where they rest in peace – and rise in glory

Lord give me wisdom to comprehend why I survive and not my friend
and teach me compassion so I may live, all my enemies to forgive

For all who need comfort for all those who mourn
all those whom we cherished will be reborn
All those whom we love but see no more
they are not perished but gone before
And Lord keep them safe in your embrace
and fill their souls with your good grace
for now they see you face to face
where they rest in peace – and rise in glory

May the road rise up to meet you
may the wind be always at your back
May the rains fall soft upon you
and the sun shine warm upon your face

And true be the hearts that love you
peace ever with you and until we meet again –
May the path light up before you
and the clouds forsake the skies above
May the warmth of sun surround you
and the stars shine bright to guide you home
And true be the hearts that love you
peace ever with you and until we meet again –
May God hold you in the palm of his hand
May he hold you evermore

And did those feet in ancient time walk upon England’s mountains green
and was the holy Lamb of God on England’s pleasant pastures seen
and did the countenance divine shine forth upon our clouded hills
and was Jerusalem builded here among those dark satanic mills

Bring me my bow of burning gold, bring me my arrows of desire
Bring me my spear, O clouds unfold, bring me my chariots of fire
I will not cease from mental fight, nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
‘til we have built Jerusalem in England’s green and pleasant land

Little Lamb who made thee
dost thou know who made thee?
Gave thee life and bid thee feed
by the stream and o’er the mead
Gave thee clothing of delight
softest clothing wooly bright
Gave thee such a tender voice
making all the vales rejoice, rejoice
Little Lamb who made thee
dost thou know who made thee?

Little Lamb I’ll tell thee
Little Lamb I’ll tell thee

He is called by thy name
for he calls himself a Lamb
He is meek and he is mild
he became a little child
I a child and thou a lamb
we are called by his name
Little Lamb God bless thee
Little Lamb God bless thee
