Across the Border.
Tonight, my bag is packed, tomorrow I’ll walk these tracks, That will lead me across the border. Tomorrow, my love and I will sleep beneath auburn skies, Somewhere across the border. We’ll leave behind, my dear, the pain and sadness we found here, And we’ll drink from the Bravo’s muddy waters, Where the sky grows gray and wide, we’ll meet on the other side, There across the border. For you, I’ll build a house high upon a grassy hill, Somewhere across the border. Where pain and memory, pain and memory have been stilled, There across the border. Sweet blossoms fill the air, pastures of gold and green, Roll down into cool, clear waters, And in your arms ‘neath open skies, I’ll kiss the sorrow from your eyes, There across the border. Tonight we’ll sing the songs and I’ll dream of you, my corazón☼, And tomorrow my heart will be strong. May the saints’ blessings and grace carry me safely into your arms, There across the border. For what are we without hope in our hearts, That someday we’ll drink from God’s blessed waters? And eat the fruit from the vine, I know love and fortune will be mine, Somewhere across the border.
END ☼“Corazón” in Spanish translates to “Sweetheart” or “My heart” in English.

“Think Of Others” Poem by Mahmoud Darwish.
As you prepare your breakfast — think of others. Don’t forget to feed the pigeons. As you conduct your wars — think of others. Don’t forget those who want peace. As you pay your water bill — think of others. Think of those who have only the clouds to drink from. As you go home, your own home — think of others — don’t forget those who live in tents. As you sleep and count the stars, think of others — there are people who have no place to sleep. As you liberate yourself with metaphors think of others — those who have lost their right to speak. And as you think of distant others — think of yourself and say, ‘I wish I were a candle in the darkness.’
Lyrics and Vocals: American Christian worship singer, songwriter Jenn Johnson.
You’re Gonna Be Okay.
I know it’s all you’ve got to just be strong, And it’s a fight just to keep it together, together. I know you think that you are too far gone, But hope is never lost, Hope is never lost. Hold on, don’t let go, Hey, hold on, don’t let go. Just take one step, closer, Put one foot in front of the other, You’ll get through this, Just follow the light in the darkness. You’re gonna be okay. I know your heart is heavy from those nights, Just remember that you are a fighter, a fighter. You never know just what tomorrow holds, You’re stronger than you know, You’re stronger than you know. Hold on, don’t let go, Hey, hold on, don’t let go. Just take one step, closer, Put one foot in front of the other, You’ll get through this. Just follow the light in the darkness, One step, closer. Put one foot in front of the other, You’ll get through this. Just follow the light in the darkness, You’re gonna be okay. And when the night is closing in, Don’t give up, and don’t give in. This won’t last, it’s not the end, it’s not the end, You’re gonna be okay. When the night is closing in, Don’t give up, and don’t give in. This won’t last, it’s not the end, it’s not the end, You’re gonna be okay. You’re gonna be okay.
Lyrics and vocals: American country singer, songwriter, musician, actress, and philanthropist Ms Dolly Rebecca Parton.
Everything Is Beautiful (In Its Own Way).
When I look out over a green field of clover, Or watch the sunset at the end of the day, I get kind of moody when I see such beauty, Everything’s beautiful in it’s own way. When I see a fountain flow from a mountain, Or see April showers bring flowers to May, I can’t help but ponder, life is such a wonder, An’ everything’s beautiful in it’s own way. Words can’t describe what I feel inside, When I see the beauty in each coming day. What my eyes behold can’t be bought or sold, An’ everything’s beautiful in it’s own way. When I see the clouds form a black summer wind storm, That uproots the harvest and hurls it away, In the midst of such anger, destruction and danger, The storm’s even beautiful in it’s own way. When I see the leaves drop from off of the treetops, Or watch the snow fall on a cold winter’s day, My thoughts seem to wander into the blue yonder, God, made each thing beautiful in it’s own way. Words can’t describe what I feel inside, When I see the beauty in each coming day. What my eyes behold can’t be bought or sold, An’ everything’s beautiful in it’s own way. In it’s own way. In it’s own way.
Lyrics: Scottish singer and songwriter Ms Isla Grant. Vocals: Irish country, pop and folk singer Ms Mary Duff.
Will You Walk With Me.
Will you walk with me through the darkest night? When my world goes wrong, will you make it right? Will you guide my lips in all I say? Will you walk with me every day? When I′m tired and weak, will you make me strong? When my mind’s confused and all hope is gone, Will you take my hand, will you lead the way? Dear Lord, will you walk with me today? Will you walk with me and ease my pain? Will you walk with me, give me hope once again? When my eyes grow dim, will you let me see? Dear Lord, will you walk with me? If my friends should go when there′s no one there. If I call your name in my dark despair, Will you come to me, will you ease my pain? Dear Lord, will you walk with me again? Help me find the strength just to carry on. Teach me how to pray, for it’s been so long, Since I fell on my knees and ask that you forgive all my sins. Dear Lord, please forgive. Will you walk with me, ease my pain? Will you walk with me, give me hope once again? When my eyes grow dim will you let me see? Dear Lord, will you walk with me? Will you walk with me, through the darkest night? When my world goes wrong, will you make it right? Will you guide my lips in all I say? Will you walk with me every day? Will you walk with me, ease my pain? Will you walk with me, give me hope once again? When my eyes grow dim, will you let me see? Dear Lord, will you walk with me? Dear Lord, will you walk with me?
