Blue Bayou

Chapter 2:

A place as fresh as the ocean view

Where the highs and lows of life sweep away

And a steady current comes to bay

Where the top of the mountain climbs on

Where stairs winding down are foregone

Where hard work pays off and dances with success

Where faith rewards, effortless

This is the next page

Turn on.

Let Peace be our Glue 
Let peace be our glue and triple our strength
Let no time pass to interrupt hatred's length.
The best payback is often hatred's mistake 
To allow love in our hearts to freely awake.

Let Peace be our Glue.

When we walk together

When we walk together

Hand in hand

Fate steps in

To protect our land

The fruits of our labor

Sow bountiful seeds

Reaping abundance throughout the streets

Compassion gleams

In our hearts

Like the warmest ray of sunshine

Melting away prejudice

With the setting of a sunset

That glows eternal.

Your words whisper

At the first glimpse of light

That we shall never fear

All that we'll lose tonight.

As brothers and sisters we stand

To champion the day

Willingly giving our lives

Without tomorrow, they say

What does one do?

When faced with all that is known.

No matter how long our lives last

One day we won’t come home.

I believe it’s evident

Of the choice we make

To stand for peace

For peace’s sake.

Y’Israel

Night, I thank you, for sending me these crashing waves

I look upon them freely for now we are not slaves

The feeling of harmony here immerses fire in my soul

Breathing steadfast pride into my lungs, hot as coal

Though my lips are silent, my eyes tell of a tale

When the free bore one message and were captured without bail

Somehow justice was served and her waters stood tall

Those captured survived and rose against the fall

Therein lies a voice which enters my lips clear

Dear Israel, I love you rings softly in my ear.

Joy

Smoke arises

Wisdom: mere

Haze fogs sight

Light steer

Hope and happiness proclaim

The future is here.
