Fly High 03:28
Nobody told me to Get up and go or sit This is my dream And everybody knows it Don't do the things I do To try to please you I do the things I do Because I need to
  Pre-chorus:
 I won't let you see me cry Won't let you hear me cry This dream won't ever die Inside of me   I will fly I will soar Til I touch the sky   I can't unsing this song I'm now singing It came to me one night When I was sleeping Lights a path for me No more straying I'm on the right path Know what I'm saying
 Pre-chorus:
 I won't let you see me cry Won't let you hear me cry This dream won't ever die Inside of me
 I will fly I will soar Til I touch the sky
 And they can make you scream And try to kill your dream They can make you shout But please don't ever let it out That you were made with wings And tears can only sting You were made to fly To where the dream will never die And if it feels too much Look deep inside your heart A light is shining bright and it will chase away the dark Just spread your wings out wide And when the east wind blows Go fly up high above the pain that only you know Go fly up high above the pain that only you know Go fly up high above the pain that only you know Go fly up high above the pain that only you know

SET ME FREE I’m over here, you're over there, Oh do you, do you even care? Don't look away, I’m here to stay So help me, help me find a way, Won't you open your heart to me, Won't you open your heart to me. Oh, set me free. Take a step closer, til you really hear Living waters drowning my fear. Now who would have thought That I’ll be up in the court Now I’m feeling distraught In this web I’ve been caught, you see So will you come and set me free? I’m all broken inside Cause my freedom’s denied All the tears that I've cried In the court where I’m tried, you see. Will you come and set me free?

HEARTLIGHT Words and music by Hal St John & Cherrie Anderson Some say Aim for the stars and you will land on the moon Shine away Just let your heartlight through they will get it soon Until that time Just keep on holding on and never let go There will be sadness, disillusion But the pain should never show They’ll try and kick you and push you and throw you to the ground Cut through the noise around you will hear silence makes a sound Hold on, hold on, hold on don’t let go Hold on, hold on, hold on don’t let go Eyes shut my vision’s clear I go and chase my fears away Love’s call a whisper in my ear forever here to stay Until that time just keep on holding on and never let go There will be sadness, disillusion but the pain should never show They’ll try and kick you And push you and throw you to the ground Cut through the noise around You will hear silence makes a sound All you broken hearted people, sit down with me Hold on, hold on, hold on don’t let go

When the moon is beaming Starlight streaming I hear you call my name I rise to find you But in the dark I’m blind to your light When you call my name Your footsteps tread Soft like a dove As the silence sounds In words of love So sweet When you say my name In the stillest hour Faintly I hear A whispering sound As I tune my ear To you When you say my name Take me, unbreak me Never forsake me Hold me, enfold me Forever I don’t want to let go I hear you call my name I hear you calling When dark is falling I hear you call my name I rise to find you But in the dark I’m blind to your light When you call my name

Father 03:24
Strong arms
Love flows through your sinews
Hands apart
Prepared to catch me fall
Open heart
You knew just what I needed from the start

Father, hold my hand
Walk with me
As I cross this desert land
Show me that secret place
Where I'm a child
And you gently sing a song
It's your voice that brings me home

Strong-willed
I choose my own way
The days reveal
The wisdom of your words
You lift me up
I know I should have listened from the start
