Sit right here beside me 
What is going on?
You’ve got my full attention 
Tell me what is wrong

I’ll just listen and won’t say a word 
Tell me where it hurts
Tell me where it hurts

I don’t mind some tear stains 
On my favorite shirt
I’m just here to hold you 
That’s what you deserve

I’ll just listen and won’t say a word 
Tell me where it hurts
Tell me where it hurts

I’m in this for better or for worse 

I’ll just listen and won’t say a word 
Tell me where it hurts
Tell me where it hurts
Tell me
Please tell me
where it hurts

WHERE IT HURTS

A lover's prayer
A sinner's cry 
The fading roses 
A whispered why  

The world hums on
in a minor key
This hymn of hope
Is a plea from me 

Hold on now
The river is deep
Don't fall down
You must stay on your feet
Hold on now
Make your only vow
to live through it
all somehow

Each bridge you take
will get you there
Hold to the rail
I know you're scared

The night will fade
To pink horizons
and  you will live
by sheer defiance

Hold on now
The river is deep
Don't fall down
Stay on your feet
Hold on now
Make your only vow
to live through it
all somehow

You will know when it's finally over
The sun will soothe you like a lover 

Hold on now
The river is deep
Don't fall down
Stay on your feet
Hold on now
Make your only vow
to live through it
all somehow
Hold on now
Hold on now

HOLD ON NOW

Thought I was doing fine 
I was just walking around 
not knowing there was 
any other world to be found

Then you came dancing in 
taking my breath away 
Opened my eyes to love 
Opened my heart to grace

So much I never knew 
‘til I woke up with you

I’m so awake now 
I’m gonna live out loud 
I was asleep ‘til you 
came walking out of a dream 
I’m feeling so alive 
now that you’re in my life 
I’m grateful every day 
every single day 
I’m awake

The edges are softer now
Rain has a sacred tune
Silence is so intense
It echoes the sound of you

Colors are opened wide
like heaven lives inside
You are in every song
the wonders go on and on

So much I never knew 
‘til I woke up with you

I’m so awake now
I’m gonna live out loud
I was asleep till you
came walking out of a dream
I’m feeling so alive
now that you’re in my life
I’m grateful every day 
every single day
I’m awake

I’m grateful every day
every single day
I’m awake
I’m awake
I’m awake
I’m awake

I'M AWAKE (Male)

I don't know why 
I want to hide 
from my life

It's just a mirror 
Me standing here 
Facing my fears

And then you came 
Everything has changed
I can't go back to where I was 
It's different now because

I see myself through your eyes 
Love sheds a whole different light 
I can be strangely free
Since you've been loving me 
Taking my heart by surprise
I see myself through your eyes

Okay in my skin
The mirror's my friend 
So here I am

I don't know how 
I lost my doubts 
And now

Somehow you came 
Everything has changed
I can't go back to where I was 
It's different now because

I see myself through your eyes 
Love sheds a whole different light 
I can be strangely free
Since you've been loving me 
Taking my heart by surprise
I see myself through your eyes
I see myself, I see myself
through your eyes

MYSELF THROUGH YOUR EYES

In Flanders fields the poppies grow
Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our place and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard among the fields below

We are the dead short days ago 
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields side by side      

Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch be yours to hold it high
If you break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow

We are the dead short days ago 
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields side by side      

Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields side by side      
In Flanders fields
In Flanders fields
Where we died   

Poem by Lt Col John McCrae 1915
Music by Carlene McDearis Wentworth 2025

IN FLANDERS FIELDS

If I could talk to Santa, I’d give him a quick call
I’d tell him what I need won’t cost him anything at all
If he could just fly you home in his big red sleigh
I could hold you in my arms on this Christmas Day
Come on, come on, Santa

I’m calling on dear Santa, Santa, come on, Santa, help me, please
Bring my sweet love here just to make this day complete
Santa is the only one can make my dream come true
Christmas would be perfect if I could be with you
Come on, come on, Santa
Come on, Santa

I hung your favorite stocking on the mantle next to mine
Tonight I’ll look for Santa’s sleigh up there in the sky
I wrapped up all your presents, put them underneath the tree
and I will wait here by the fire ‘til you come home to me
Come on, come on, Santa

I’m calling on dear Santa, Santa, come on, Santa, help me, please
Bring my sweet love here just to make this day complete
Santa is the only one can make my dream come true
Christmas would be perfect if I could be with you
Come on, come on, Santa
Come on, Santa

Mistletoe and candy canes, lights twinkling in the snow
won’t mean anything at all because we both know
that  Santa dear is on his way, and he must come through
‘cause the only thing I want is you

I’m calling on dear Santa, Santa, come on, Santa, help me, please
Bring my sweet love here just to make this day complete
Santa is the only one can make my dream come true
Christmas would be perfect if I could be with you
Come on, come on, Santa
Come on, Santa
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, Santa

COME ON, SANTA

I’m counting the hours ‘til you come home
Not gonna spend this Christmas alone
Got some trimmings to decorate the tree
Wrapped up every present, even hung the wreath

Never thought I’d find someone like you 

Your love is like a miracle, a gift I’d never known
You will walk right through that door, I will hold you close
Our favorite Christmas songs will play, we will slowly dance
and we will talk ‘til 2 a.m. as we make future plans
There’s nothing in this world that will do
but a perfectly perfect Christmas with you

Don’t worry ‘bout buying gifts for me
You’re the only present I’ll ever need
Your touch, your heart make me feel alive
You’re everything, you are my life

Your love is like a miracle, a gift I’d never known
You will walk right through that door, I will hold you close
Our favorite Christmas songs will play, we will slowly dance
and we will talk ‘til 2 a.m. as we make future plans
There’s nothing in this world that will do
but a perfectly perfect Christmas with you

PERFECTLY PERFECT CHRISTMAS

Thought I was doing fine 
I was just walking around
not knowing there was any 
other world to be found

Then you came strolling in 
taking my breath away 
Opened my eyes to love 
Opened my heart to grace

So much I never knew 
‘til I woke up with you

I’m so awake now 
I’m gonna live out loud
I was asleep till you
came walking out of a dream 
I’m feeling so alive
now that you’re in my life 
I’m grateful every day 
every single day
I’m awake

The edges are softer now
Rain has a sacred tune
Silence is so intense
It echoes the sound of you

Colors are open wide
like heaven lives inside
You are in every song
the wonders go on and on

So much I never knew 
‘til I woke up with you

I’m so awake now 
I’m gonna live out loud
I was asleep till you
came walking out of a dream 
I’m feeling so alive
now that you’re in my life 
I’m grateful every day 
every single day
I’m awake
 
I’m grateful every day
every single day
I’m awake
I’m awake 
I’m awake
