“YES” CD
I say yes (yes) – to the thing itself
yes (yes) – to the way it works
yes (yes) – what it does
yes yes yes yes – to how to use it
God – Spirit – that’s the Thing Itself
Cause of all creation
origin of everything – it’s what makes me sing
powerful foundation
whatever I’m doing wherever I’m going
it’s the voice that whispers in my ear
I say yes…
through – me – that’s the way It works
principle in action
limitless is what I am – yes I know I can
live in satisfaction
heeding the call – having it all
peace of mind is mine
I say yes…
the channel is wide open – the circuitry’s divine
I’m focused on the positive and mmm that’s fine
I demonstrate abundance – and manifest the proof
immersed in love and wisdom – surrounded by the truth
I say yes…
I’ve come as a magician – and an ordinary man
to make a contribution – and be part of the plan
there is no destination – the journey is the goal
I’m busy with the making of a soul – I’m busy with the making of a soul
part of me’s an artist – part of me’s a fool
I have no map to guide me – there is no book of rules
the only thing that’s certain – is joy will lead me home
I’m busy with the making of a soul – I’m busy with the making of a soul
the making of a soul – the making of a soul
I’m busy with the making of a soul
lurking in my shadow – are things I must reclaim
I call them out into the light and give them each a name
every one’s a mirror that helps to make me whole
I’m busy with the making of a soul – I’m busy with the making of a soul
the making of a soul…
I’m part of God unfolding – I trust and fully give
all that really matters is that while I live, I live
my gifts are what is needed – the universe is home
I’m busy with the making of a soul – I’m busy with the making of a soul
the making of a soul…
may all that I think and all that I do
be a prayer to You
a prayer to You – a prayer to You
may all that I think and all that I do
be a prayer to You
a prayer to You – my Love
in every face may I see You
in every voice may I hear You
in all that is may this be true

be a prayer to You my Love
a prayer to You
hand in hand when we’re out for a walk
sharing some sweet talk
getaway with a car or a plane
sipping on chilled champagne
cuddle time with a book or a flick
going with your pick
‘til the end and all the way through
this means that I love you
birthday card on your pillow at night
kissing in moonlight
dozen roses any old time
being your valentine
dinner out at an intimate place
holding your sweet face
‘til the end and all the way through
this means that I love you
I understand your point of view
you need to hear the words and often too
AND every day – in all I do
that’s what I’m telling you
dialogue when we disagree
saying I’m sorry
open arms when you’re feeling blue
reminding you what’s true
candlelight by the side of the bed
stroking your forehead
‘til the end and all the way through
this means that I love you
you work and you crave – you scrimp and you save
in search of security
it’s time for a shift – remember your gift
and fine tune your frequency
when you clearly know that you’re a blessing
really see yourself as God expressing
how much richer will you be
whenever you’re ill – you reach for a pill
and trust that the doctor’s right
if truth could be told – you’d never grow old
your spirit can’t be denied
like the sages say in all the teachings
it’s your wholeness that just needs revealing
you are perfect – change your mind
don’t be satisfied with anything less
go for it all yeah go for it all
press past limitation give it your best
go for it all yeah go for it all
there is more in you – more for you
keep reaching for that more
go for it all
your life is a quest – from east to west
with challenges unforeseen
the work to be done – remembering we’re one
and living with love between
when you make it back to where you started
if you’ve lived a life that’s open-hearted
everything will seem brand new
don’t be satisfied with anything less…
the end times are upon us
the end of all the madness
release it and surrender
release your inner splendour
don’t be satisfied with anything less…
it’s time to stop – redress – forgive myself for thinking
that I am small – and less – than who and what I am
divine creation – with a simple job
express my thoughts and feelings – with the faith of God
at first I was happy and carefree
then limited thinking ensued
taught to believe that I was not enough
the story became my truth
it’s time to stop…
now let me look at my language
be mindful of all that I say
words shape the way I see things in the world
each one’s a potent prayer
it’s time to stop…
I choose to live completely
as unified and whole
and in that full engagement
reclaim my truest role
it’s time to stop…
like the endless rush – of a river’s flow
I never felt that I could rest I longed for home
a place to be – a spot to land
a time to say the work is done and stroll in sand
gradually the truth appeared
like waking from a dream
everything’s evolving
and I’m part of the stream
Spirit is calling – calling me up
to a new way of thinking – a new way of being
Spirit is calling – calling me up
to a new way of living – a new heaven and new earth
now that I have found – the Common Thread
I can trust and know in faith that I am led
I face what comes – push nothing away
‘cause all things are connected and show the way
gradually the truth appears
like waking from a dream
everything’s evolving
and I’m part of the stream
Spirit is calling…
Higher Cause that I can’t even see
driving me to rise above and be free
Spirit is calling…
river song, river song
rising falling tall and strong
be our roots be our wings
oh river song
sun or the moon – sky grey or blue
thanks for the ever-changing beauty and view
water that lives – and flows under you
creatures that swim and float and fly over you
at work or at play – midnight or noon
worlds of adventure wait in each of your rooms
daylight that sings and dances through you
stillness that fills us up with great gratitude
with all we say – and all we do
may our love together deepen in you
and every time – we gather anew
may our friends and family feel that love too
love is all of us – love is all
every inch of our humanness Divine
love is all of us love is all
and God has need of all of us
give thanks – for the splendour – of wild and lusty youth
the force of love – forging its own way
its fire ignites us – its passion gives us juice
pushing us to what we are today
love is all of us…
give thanks for the glory – of radiant romance
refining all the love that’s come before
it sweeps us off our feet – and carries us away
lifted high but wanting needing more
love is all of us…
give thanks for the power – of deepening attachment
the urge in every one of us to bond
it strengthens our connection – and helps to build a life
solid ground allows us to respond

I want to have a wholehearted life
a wholehearted life
where no matter what’s done or left undone
I belong and I’m enough
a wholehearted life – a wholehearted life
where I’m worthy – I’m worthy of love
this looking for certainty – Is really exhausting me
perfect though I try to be – I’ve not been
alone with my guilt and shame – afraid of more pain and blame
I numb out to stay in the game – I can’t win
time to make myself a brand new choice
I want to have a wholehearted life…
so I choose to be set free – take responsibility
stand in vulnerability – speak my heart
to get love I must give love – to belong I must reach out
to find truth I must be true – play my part
‘cause owning my story – and loving myself too
are the bravest things I’ll ever do
I want to have a wholehearted life…
I want to have a wholehearted life…
I’m worthy worthy worthy of love – worthy worthy of love (2x)
I’m able able able to love – able able to love (2x)

humpty dumpty sat on a wall
humpty dumpty got a great call
all the king’s horses and all the king’s men
couldn’t put humpty back together again
‘cause all they found where he landed
was his shell and his clothes
his transformation was total
where did he get to – i suppose
he had to jump right in
yeah he had to jump right in
he had to jump right in to find out he could fly
i’m scared to jump but you know what they say
you’ve got to feel the fear and do it anyway
i might fall and i might crack
but both feet are in and i’m not turning back
‘cause even if i get busted
or maybe lose my shell
i’ll be a better man for it
with some tales to tell
once i decide to move forward
the universe’ll move too
‘cause it’s not what i do – it’s how i do it
that’s gonna see me through
i’m gonna jump right in
yeah i’m gonna jump right in
i’m gonna jump right in to find out i can fly
in this time and in this place
is the grace to love
with these hands and with this heart
i can start to love
to love – to love – to love
i’ve been bruised and i’ve been burned
still i yearn to love
so i’ll forgive and i’ll forget
pay my debt to love
to love – to love – to love
because love is all there is
ever was and will be
i may win and i may lose
still i’ll choose to love
i may stand and i may fall
still i – i will give all to love
to love – to love – to love – to love

i am breathing – i am breathing in and out (2x)
and I’m mindful of the stillness and the million thoughts throughout
mindful of the space between the knowing and the doubt
and I have no destination no place I have to go
the rising and the falling is all there is to note
I am breathing – I am breathing – I am breathing – oh
I am sitting – I am sitting dignified
and I’m mindful of my posture and the straightness of my spine
mindful of a mountain that’s connecting earth and sky
and I have no destination…
I am sitting – I am sitting – I am sitting – oh
I am walking – I am walking on this street (2x)
and I’m mindful of the process and the way that it repeats
mindful of the lifting and the placing of my feet
and I have no destination…
I am walking – I am walking – I am walking – oh
I am standing – I am standing on this floor (2x)
and I’m mindful of the blood that’s circulating ‘round my core
mindful of its oxygen depleted and restored
and I have no destination…
I am standing – I am standing – I am standing – oh
i am lying – i am lying on the ground (2x)
and I’m mindful of the tension in my muscles winding down
mindful of releasing melting into sacred sound
and I have no destination…
I am lying – I am lying – I am lying – oh
I am breathing…
see you…
I can see you (4x)
you made your debut – all shiny and new
your heart and hands open wide
you wore a big grin – and drank it all in
your happiness justified
‘til the king and queen and their final scene
scared away that shine
and I can see you – barely breathing and still
in a tidal wave
I can see you – huddled deep in the dark
of a tiny cave
alone and displaced – you painted your face
and learned how to work the crowd
you mastered the art – of playing it smart
and feelings were not allowed
since the final scene with the king and queen
that’s been your solemn vow
and I can see you – holding court with a smile
and a lonely heart
I can see you – crying under the mask
as you live the part
I think it’s time you had your say
it’s no longer yesterday
you’ll be safe now and I promise
I’ll be with you all the way
you can laugh and sweat and shake
you can cry until you ache
you can kick and scream and fight
you can keep me up all night
I will listen while you do
and remember what is true
that you’re not the one to blame
and it’s time to end the game
‘cause I can see you
as the cool of evening settles on the bay
and our work is over for the day
come and lay beside me in this quiet space
in my open arms you’ll find a place to
breathe – in my love for you – and the deepening hue
of our union I will
breathe – in your love for me – feel its energy
build divine communion
spooning on our left and swaying like the tide
let the rhythm lead us deep inside
filling every chakra starting with the heart
nurturing our sacred counterpart we
breathe – in my love for you – and the deepening hue
of our union we will
breathe – in your love for me – feel its energy
build divine communion
as our dance progresses with each passing night
feel a growing sense of peace and light
saying yes to love and conquering the fear
seeing our true nature reappear we
breathe…
grateful for the process eager to go on
let us journey onward til we are as one
til we are as one
a wise soul from another day
laid bare the simple truth
that all we need to be content
is this
someone to love something to do
and something to hope for
with these three goals your aim
life will be bliss
but human nature’s funny
you live learn and forget
may this song help remind me
when I’m tense and upset
food for my belly – a comfy bed
a gal who loves me – ‘nuff said
it’s not much – but it’s more than enough
my trusty eight-string – a pad and pen
some inspiration – amen
it’s not much – but it’s more than enough
oh I know some folks say
you won’t be happy ‘til you have a pile of gold
but I have found – you can’t be bound
by everything that you’re told
a heart for lovin’ – a soul to feel
a voice to sing ‘bout – what’s real
it’s not much – but it’s more than enough
(solo)
oh i know some folks say…
got time to ponder – all I possess
all things considered – i’m blessed
it’s not much – but it’s more than enough
it’s not much – but it’s more than enough
your eyes that shine – your hand in mine
our lips combined – in a sweet kiss
laughing in bed – tears that we shed
things that we’ve said – in moments just like this
all of our mem’ries form a tapestry
whose colours grow richer each day
weaving the you and me into a we
I’ll cherish first last and always
the setting sun – our bodies one
second to none – are moments just like this
(solo)
all of our mem’ries form a tapestry…
the setting sun…
husband and wife – let’s live a life
brimming with moments like this
just like this – just like this
so many options
it’s a challenge to know where to start
in a world of too many points of view
which one is true
I sought the silence
and the wisdom that once filled my heart
offered peace again like a trusted friend
can often do
it said two roads – are calling out to me
one of danger – one of certainty
so I’ve decided – if it’s fear or love I choose love
only two roads – it comes down to this
one of suffering – one of gentle bliss
I’ve decided – if it’s fear or love I choose love
as sure as sunrise
we are all meant to be on this earth
each an artisan of the master plan
humanity
let’s stand together
and reclaim what’s been ours since our birth
our right to be – you and me
completely
there are two roads – calling out to me
one of danger – one of certainty
I’ve decided – if it’s fear or love I choose love
only two roads – it comes down to this
one of suffering – one of gentle bliss
I’ve decided – if it’s fear or love I choose love
and the more I decide – to make love my guide
the sweeter the ride – that life provides
there are two roads…
I’ve decided – if it’s fear or love I choose love
I choose love (3x)
all the time we have is now
all the place we have is here
all that matters is to live – with open hearts and give
cause all we have is here and now
so in this moment let’s allow
all that’s precious to be clear
cause all that matters is to love – that’s all we’re in need of
and all we have is here and now
if we dare – let go what’s behind us
there’s no telling how light we might feel
let’s reclaim – the fullness of being
and rediscover what’s been concealed
what’s ahead – is nothing but mystery
that all our worry won’t help to reveal
best to be – relaxed in the present
where all our power to make change is real
all the time we have is now…
(all is now – all is here – all is here and – now)
in this breath – is all that’s important
in this heartbeat is all that we need
let’s restore – our lives to the present
and reawaken all that’s set free
tears of joy – and peals of laughter
are both eager for us to say yes
here and now – lie magic and wonder
why would we want to settle for less
all the time we have is now… (all is now…)
so in this moment let’s allow…
(let’s allow – to be clear – all is here and – now)
all that matters is to live – with open hearts and give
cause all we have is here and now (all is here and – now)
here and now (now) (3x)
sing…
sing a new song – a song to the Lord

creator of heaven and earth
the Father is great and worthy of praise
for He is creator of all things
glory and power surround Him
beauty fills his temple
sing a new song…
be glad earth and sky – sea roar with your life
be glad you fields and all that you hold
the trees in the woods – will shout for joy
when He comes to rule over all
sing a new song…

free
‘cause all of my good is already here
free – I can feel it
free – so I can be it
it – is – law – and so it is (2x)
I rejoice – in my choice (4x)
I’m free
I’m holding space for you
I’m fully here for you
I will not judge – I won’t expect
as I’m holding space for you
with my gaze
with my stillness
with my touch
with my love
I’m holding space for you…
all your thoughts
all your feelings
can arise
and depart
thank you for the freedom to be…
with ease and grace and joy
breathe in – breathe out
let everything else – float on by
breathe in – breathe out
and be still
here underneath the words
here underneath illusion
there is a heart that loves
like mine
I give myself permission
to play – today
I give myself permission
today
lovingly
I choose to see
I choose to be
wide open
longing for light – searching in darkness
yearning to see I’m home
hoping for light – reaching in darkness
yearning to feel I’m home
praying for light – breathing in darkness
yearning to know I’m home
I’m home…
