#1 A FRIEND

To laugh with, to cry with,
To be just beside with

Believing that they need you too
To walk hand in hand with
To argue, to talk with

And never do anything right

#93 GALILEE SONG

Voices whispering to me
Words that I can’t understand
Meanings I must clearly hear.
Calling me to follow close
Lest I left myself behind
Calling me to walk into
Evening shadows one more time.

Refrain:
So I leave my boats behind
Leave them on familiar shores
Set my heart upon the deep
Follow you again my Lord.

2. In my memories I know
How you send familiar rains
Falling gently on my days
Dancing pattern on my pain
And I need to learn once more

60
In the fortress of my mind
To believe in falling rain
As I travel deserts dry. (Ref.)

3. As I gazed into the night


Down the future of my years
I’m not sure I want to walk
Past horizons that I know!
But I feel my spirit called
Like a stirring deep within
Restless till I live again
Beyond the fears that close me in! (Ref.)

#94 GALWAY BAY

1. If you ever go across the sea to Ireland


Then maybe at the closing of the day
You will sit and watch the moon rise over
Claddagh
And see the sun go down on Galway Bay.

2. Just to hear again the rippling of the trout spring


The woman in the meadows making hay
And to sit beside the turf fire in the cabin
And watch the bare foot gossoms at their play.

3. Breezes blowing o’er the sea from Ireland


Are perfumed by the heather as the blow
And the women in the upland diggin’ praties
Speak a language that the strangers do not
know.

Though it makes him sad to see the way we live
He’ll always say, “I forgive”.

for a living
Make a little space, make a better place.

growing
Make a little world or make a better world. (Cho)

The world is heavenly… Be God’s glow..

In my heart I feel you are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear together we’ll cry

See the nations turn their swords into

the living
Make a little space, to make a better place.

IfI can run with speed when needy hearts are
calling
And if my torch can light the dark of any night
Then I must pay the debt I owe with living light.

2. If heaven’s grace has dowered me with some


rare gifts
If I can lift some load no other strength can lift
If I can heal some wound no other hand can heal
If some great truth the speaking skies reveal
Then I must go a broken wounded thing
If to a wounded world my gifts no healing bring.

3. For any gift God gives to me, I cannot pay


Gifts are most mine when I give them most
away
God’s gifts are like his flow’rs which show their

By giving all their bloom and fragrance away
Riches are not gold nor land estates nor marts
The only wealth there is, is found in human
hearts.

Our courage and our fears.
Though once a seed her dream now stands as a
solid tree.
Its branches are the symbol that we are all a
family.

5. And thought he mighty winds will pass


Our tree can never fall,
For we all are rooted deeply in the echo of
Catherine’s call.
So remember from that seedling you’re a branch
on this great tree.
And our spirit, it has blossomed into global unity.
