Peace – Deluxe Edition

I am the hours and moments of your yesterday
I am your time gone by
All days and ages, fleeting long since passed away as endless years roll by

I rise in the spark of life, the dawn of all time
I call to the worlds still yet to be
The music is everywhere, in life, in the sea and air to join in the powerful song of all eternity

I am the hours, the days and moments yet to come until the end of time
All the centuries and seasons that are still to run as endless years roll by

Then all of creation rings and all in the heavens sing their glorious song through all eternity

I am the dawn of all time

Faithful heart, what more can one life ask?
one hand to hold along life’s path
Share with me this vow, and for all time our souls will be entwined
I give this love, I live this love
no greater joy is mine
Storms will come but we will never part
for each of us bequeath a faithful heart

There’s a light upon the mountains and the day is at the spring
when our eyes shall see the wonder and the glory it will bring
et laudate Domino in laetitia
et cantate Domino gloria
saecula et saeculorum
Alleluia

Hark, we hear a distant music and it comes with fuller swell
’tis the glorious song of heaven and our fears it will dispel
Exsultate Domino omnis populi
Alleluia
Jubilate Domino omnis terra
Alleluia

Angeli et archangeli,
psallite et laudate
in hymnis et psalmis
et canticis

We hear a distant music –
it comes with fuller swell
for the angels here are human,
not the shining hosts above
for the drumbeats of the army
are the heartbeats of our love

You are the voice, you are the music that plays, you are the day
Lacrymosa, dolorosa Voca me, libera me, salva me

You are the voice that calls in the silence
You are the light that shines in the dark
You hold me in any sorrow
See me through every shadow – Salva me

You are the words of the song –
you are the light
You are the music that plays –
you are the voice
You are the day

You are the words of the song in the sunrise
You are the music that plays at the dawn
You hold me if I were falling
Hear me if I am calling – Salva me

Lead, kindly light amid the encircling gloom
Lead thou me on
The night is dark and I am far from home
Lead thou me on
Keep thou my feet, I do not ask to see the distant scene,
one step enough for me

O lux aeterna, lead thou me on
O lux beata, lead, kindly light, lead me on
So long thy power has blest me, sure it still
Will lead me on

O’er moor and fen, o’er crag and torrent ‘til
The night is gone
And with the morn those angel faces smile
Which I have loved long since and lost a while

The night is dark and I am far from home
Lead Thou me home

Climb a tree to touch the sky through the leaves I watch the birds fly in the softly swaying breeze from my nest among the trees
So the golden light dances through the pattern of branches all the colours of autumn, alive
As the leaves of evening fall from my throne above us all where the faithful blossom flowers here I while away for hour after hour
Climb a tree to touch the sky

Goodnight my angel time to close your eyes
and save these questions for another day
I think I know what you’ve been asking me
I think you know what I’ve been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
and you should always know, wherever you may go, no matter where you are, I never will be far away

Goodnight my angel now it’s time to sleep
and still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
when we went sailing on an emerald bay
And like a boat out on the ocean
I’m rocking you to sleep, the water’s dark and deep inside this ancient heart you’ll always be a part of me

Goodnight my angel now it’s time to dream
and dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child will cry and if you sing this lullaby, then in your heart there will always be a part of me

Someday we’ll all be gone but lullabyes go on and on, they never die
that’s how you and I will be

Going home going home
I am going home
Quiet like, some still day
I am going home

It’s not far, just close by,
through an open door
Work all done, care laid by
never fear no more

Mother’s there expecting me
Father’s waiting too
Lots of faces gathered there
All the friends I knew

I’m just going home

No more fear No more pain
No more stumbling by the way
No more longing for the day
Going to run no more

Morning star lights the way
Restless dreams all gone
Shadows gone, break of day
real life has begun

There’s no break, there’s no end
Just living on
Wide awake, with a smile
going on and on

Going home Going home
I am going home
shadows gone break of day
real life has begun

I’m just going home

Silent night, Holy night,
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night Holy night,
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar,
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia;
Christ the Saviour is born,
Christ the Saviour is born.

Silent night, Holy night,
Son of God Love’s pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face,
with the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth,
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.
