I

Somewhere out there beneath the pale moonlight Someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight

I
I

Somewhere out there someone's saying a prayer That we'll find one another in that big somewhere out there

I

And even though I know how very far apart we are

It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star

I

l
I

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby

I

It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there if love can see us through Then we'll be together somewhere out there Out where dreams come true

And even though I know how very far apart we are It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there if love can see us through Then we'll be together somewhere out there Out where dreams come true

James Horner, Barry Mann Cynthia Wei/

Memories, Light the corners of my mind Misty water-colored memories Of the way we were

Scattered pictures, Of the smiles we left behind Smiles we gave to one another For the way we were

Can it be that it was all so simple then? Or has time re-written every line? If we had the chance to do it all again Tell me, would we? Could we?

Memories May be beautiful , and yet What's too painful to remember We simply choose to forget

So it's the laughter We will remember Whenever we remember... The way we were ...

the way we were ...

Marvin Hamlisch Alan Bergman, Marilyn Bergman

It must have been cold there in my shadow, To never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, That's your way. You always walked a step behind
So I was the one with all the glory, While you were the one with all the strain. A beautiful face without a name for so long,
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.
Did you ever know that you're my hero? And everything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle,
For you are the wind beneath my wings.
It might have appeared to go unnoticed, but I've got it all here in my heart. I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it. I would be nothing without you.
Did you ever know that you're my hero? You're everything I wish I could be. I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings
Did I ever tell you you're my hero? You're everything, everything I wish I could be
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle, for you are the wind beneath my wings,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, the wind beneath my wings. You , you , you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high. Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings. Oh, you , you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly high against the sky, so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings.

Sing the wondrous love of Jesus; sing his mercy and his grace.
In the mansions bright and blessed, he'll prepare for us a place.
When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will bel
When we all see Jesus, we 'II sing and shout The Victory.
While we walk the pilgrim pathway, clouds will over spread the sky; But when traveling days are over, not a shadow, not a sigh.
When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will bel
when we all see Jesus, We 'll sing and shout The Victory.
Let us then be true and faithful, trusting, serving every day;
just one glimpse of him in glory will the toils of life repay.
When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will bel
when we all see Jesus, We'll sing and shout The Victory.
Onward to the prize before us! Soon his beauty we'll behold; Soon the pearly gates will open ; we shall tread the streets of gold.
When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will bel
When we all see Jesus, we 'II sing and shout The Victory.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart,
Be acceptable in Thy sight, 0 Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.
Old Testament Psalms 19:14

In this very room There is quite enough love For one like me, and

In this very room There is quite enough joy For one like me.

Its quite enough hope, quite enough power to change the way in me Lord For Jesus, Lord Jesus

He is in this very room, ooh, ooh,

In this very room There is quite enough love For all of us, and

In this very room There is quite enough joy For all of us There is quite enough hope And quite enough power To chase away any gloom

For Jesus, Lord Jesus Can't you feel Him? He's in this very room

In this very room There is quite enough love for all the world In this very room There is quite enough joy for all the world There is quite enough hope, and quite enough power To chase away any gloom.

For Jesus, My Lord Jesus

Is in this very room

I feel Him

In this very room.

There is name that is so precious a name so wonderful to me this name is worthy
of all praises,
because of him I am made free
that name is Jesus oh how I love him
The one who gave his life for me because of love so unconditional
I will have life eternally, his name speaks peace unto my storm clouds his name speaks calm,
unto to my fears
. and when I feel that no one love me his living presence is so near
Praise that name Praise that name Praise that name
some day I will leave this earthly dwelling through time and space my soul will soar
and finally see, the face of Jesus and praise that name forever more.
