The Magic Is You

Music and Lyrics by Peter Link

When there's a moon in the sky
With the stars falling 'round
And the only sound
Is in the hush of night
Then there's a change in the air
As the first light appears
When the blush of dawn nears
It's then the magic happens

Yes it's a magical moment
A beautiful elegance
A classical concept
When the dawn brings the day

The magic of new light
And the hope that it brings
Is a glorious thing
But there's a greater magic
Than new light
Better it's true
It's the magic in you
No there's no greater power
When the magic is you
The magic is you

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

Well there's a magic in song
Moving in harmony
Two different melodies
Making a beautiful world
And there's a magic in dreams
Created by all of us
Reaching for more than just
The usual ways

And with all we’ve been through
There’s still magic to do
It’s just me and it’s you
We are partners for life

There's magic in rain rain
Wondrous and wild
Through the eyes of a child
Yet there's a greater magic
Than rain rain
Better it's true
It's the magic in you
No there's no greater power
When the magic is you

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

It's greater than the sunshine
The magic is you
It's better than the moonlight
It shines right through
It's better than a song sung
In a heart that is true
It's better in the long run
The magic is you

It's greater than the sunshine
The magic is you
It's better than the moonlight
It shines right through
It's better than a song sung
In a heart that is true
It's better in the long run
The magic is you

There's magic here within our lives
New doors are here to open wide
The time has come to change our lives
And leap and soar and run the skies

And it's all here right now
Cause the magic is you!!!

My Father's World

This is my Father's world
And to my listening ears
All nature sings, all around me rings
The music of the spheres

Chorus:
This is my Father's world
I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas
Of wonders he hath wrought

This is my Father's world
He shines in all that’s fair
In the rustling grass, I hear Him pass
He speaks to me everywhere
(Chorus)

Eternal Life

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace
Where there is hatred let me sow love
Where there is injury, pardon
Where there is doubt, faith
Where there is despair, hope
Where there is darkness, light
Where there is sadness, joy
O Divine Master grant that
I may not so much seek
To be consoled, as to console
To be understood, as to understand
To be loved, as to love
For it is in giving that we receive
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned
It is in dying that we are born to eternal life

Consider the Lilies

Music by Peter Link
Lyrics from Matthew 6

Take no thought for your life
What ye shall eat
Or what ye shall drink
Nor yet for your body
What ye shall put on

Is not your life more than the meat
And the body than raiment?
Are ye not much better than they?

Behold the fowls of the air
For they sow not
And nor do they reap
Or harvest for others
Yet God feedeth his own

Are ye not much better than they?

Consider the lilies of the field
How they grow
Oh how they grow
Consider the lilies of the field
They toil not
Neither do they spin

And yet I say unto you
That even Solomon in all his glory
Was not arrayed like one of these

And therefore take no thought
In wond'ring who will clothe
And who will feed us
And who will end this thirst within
No take no thought
For your heavenly Father knoweth
That ye have need of all these things

But now seek ye first
The hand of God
His righteousness
And all will be added
Take no thought for the morrow

The morrow shall take thought
For the things of itself

Consider the lilies how they grow
How they grow
Oh how they grow
How they grow
How they grow

What a Wonderful World
Lyrics by Bob Thiele and George David Weiss

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom, for me and for you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
Bright blessed days, and the dark sacred nights
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

You see the colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of people passing by
And I hear friends shaking hands, saying how do you do
What they're really saying is, I love you

And I hear babies, they cry, and I watch them grow
They'll learn much more
Than we'll ever know
And I say to myself
It's a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful, wonderful world

Yes, I think to myself
It's a wonderful, wonderful world
