    Kind words don’t hurt anybody
    Nasty words hurt the most
    Save that jar of coins for a rainy day
    Because you never know when you will be short of money
    I no longer talk about dying
    Because there is more to life than I know
    The snowstorm is coming
    Dress warm if you are going out
    Soon the streets will be covered with snow
    And the snow ploughs will come
    Cats watch from the living room window
    As the flakes fall
    A bowl of soup is good on a cold day like today
    I have a spirit that is alive
    I have a voice that soars;
    A place here on earth
    And I belong here
    Mothers will give birth to babies
    And every life will be a mystery
    Silence can be broken with music
    In my heart there is a blood stain that can’t be washed
    God calls out for me
    And I hear it very well
    With my own two ears
    Angels watch out for me
    My life unfolds everyday
    I feel breathless
    So let me have some of that air
    Let me change the world around me
    By bringing people closer to me
    So that I won’t be alone in this world
    Give me some of your peace God
    Give me some health God
    So I am able to do your work
    And enjoy life again
    I see no evil God
    I hear no evil God
    Wherever I walk I feel your presence God
    And I know that I am never alone
    I also know that you have a place for me in heaven
    And someday I will be able to call heaven home
    So many battles lost and won by man
    In the name of freedom
    Freedom is
    Having the time to smell the flowers
    So today I will plant the seeds that will grow into a tree
    And that alone is my gift to the world
    But that sour note that I just wrote a little while ago
    I will cherish
    Always
