NOTHING ONLY LOVE
From KING OF HEARTS

Lyrics by Jacob Brackman
Music by Peter Link

Some people say it all ends sadly
I‘ll have to pay with tears in time
Prob’ly I should beware
But I don’t think I care
‘cause nothing matters
Nothing only love

Soon you’ll know all my secret places
I’ll have lost all my mystery then
How can then matter now
I can’t stop anyhow
‘cause nothing matters
Nothing only love

The sky may fall but I don’t care
The light may fail but it doesn’t matter
The wind may blow me anywhere
But I don’t care cause it doesn’t matter
My hands may shake
My dreams may shatter
My heart may break
But it doesn’t matter
No nothing does
No no nothing matters
Nothing only love
No nothing only love
No nothing only love

Minutes ago my mind was racing
Now all my worries feel so small
Now there’s just you and me
And in your eyes I see
That nothing matters
Nothing only love
The moon may crack
The sea may boil
The song may die
But it doesn’t matter
This river may carry me anywhere
But I don’t care
‘cause it doesn’t matter
My hands may shake
My dreams may shatter
My heart may break
But it doesn’t matter
No nothing does
No no nothing matters
Nothing only love
No nothing only love
No nothing only love

God Is Love
Music by Mindy Jostyn
Lyrics by Mindy Jostyn and Jacob Brackman

God is Love
I've never been to heaven
I don't know where it's found
Some say high above the clouds
Some say all around
I've never seen the king of kings
Or stood before his throne
My mind is full of questions
But my heart has always known

[Chorus]
God is Love
God is Love
More than this I cannot know
Higher than this I cannot go
God is Love
God is Love
If it's all I ever learn in life
It's all I need to know

I've had my days of pleasure
Of feasting and of friends
But things I used to treasure
Their charm came to an end
When summer has departed
When winter gales descend I remember where my heart is
I remember once again

[Chorus]

May every living thing that breathes
Find comfort from despair
In darkest valleys, storm tossed seas
God is always there
And She is Love
God is Love
More than this we cannot know
Higher than this we cannot go
God is Love
God is Love
If it's all we ever learn in life
It's all we need to know

If Ever I Would Leave You
Music by Frederick Loewe
Lyrics by Alan Jay

If ever I would leave you it wouldn't be in summer
Seeing you in summer I never would go
Your hair streaked with sunlight your lips red as flame
Your face with a luster that puts gold to shame

But if I'd ever leave you it couldn't be in autumn
How I'd leave in autumn I never will know
I've seen how you sparkle when fall nips the air
I know you in autumn and I must be there

And could I leave you running merrily through the snow
Or on a wintry evening when you catch the fire's glow

If ever I would leave you how could it be in springtime
Knowing how in spring I'm bewitched by you so
Oh no not in springtime summer winter or fall
No never could I leave you at all

The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

Music and Lyrics by Ewan MacColl

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies, my love
To the dark and the endless skies

And the first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command, my love

And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last 'til the end of time my love
And it would last 'til the end of time

The first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face, your face

It's All About Love
Music by Peter Link
Words by Dora Redman and Peter Link

There was no room for us in the inn
And before he could close the door
I begged and wept,
"There is no other place around
For my wife is with child
And she just needs a place to lie down"
But with a callused heart and without a care
Much to my despair he began to close the door
"Wait now, good sir! We cannot be denied.
For the child comes forth tonight
And if not a room the stable will do
And a candle to light our way
Oh please, good sir, find it in your heart
For we have not a place to stay"

But he could not allow a fire in the stable
And she could never give birth without light

The light? the light!
Do you see the light?
It comes down from the Heavens
The star? The star!
Do you see the star?
The star that lights the way?

The song! The song!
Do you hear the voices of angels
That sing in the night
The hope! The wonder!
Can you not feel the promise?
Of the coming of the Son of God
It's in the air! It's everywhere!
It's in the air! It's everywhere!
And It's all about love
It's all about love

So, he let us go down to the stable
As he turned back inside the Inn
As the night went on
The light it came down all around
And the Shepherd boys prayed
And the wise men brought gifts from afar
And then the angels sang till the heavens rang
And the babe was born in the glory of that night
And the innkeeper stood in his window and watched
As the manger was bathed in light
And on that night with spirit reborn
In his heart he found love at last
With basket of bread and a jug of wine
He then joined us and shared his repast

There was so much peace
In this meek little place
And it beckoned to set his heart free.
So we all sang, the angels, the shepherds, the wise men,
The innkeeper, Mary and me.

The Child! The Child!
Do you see the child?
That came down from the Heavens
The Peace! The Peace!
Do you feel the peace?
That flows on through his eyes
The Song! The Song!
Do you hear the voices of angels?
That sing in the dawn
The hope! The wonder!
Can you not feel the promise?
Of the coming of the Son of God

It's in the air! It's everywhere! x2
And It's all about love,
Can you not feel the promise?
Yes it's in the air! It's everywhere! x2
And It's all
The hope, the wonder
about love,

It's in the air! It's everywhere! x2
And It's all about love,
This my child, the Son Of God!
Hallelujah!
