Greatest Love of All
By Whitney Houston

I believe the children are our are future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Everybody searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone to fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me

Chorus:
I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be


Chorus

And if by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love

Found the lyrics here. http://dragon.sleepdeprived.ca/songbook/songs3/S3_76.htm

Still trying to find the mp3 file.

I'm a Nut
(source: "The World's Best Funny Songs", Esther J. Nelson, 1988; this song is called "Acorn Brown" in "The Worm Song and Other Tasty Tunes, Janet Wilson, 1993.)
(actions in brackets)

I'm a little acorn round (make circle with thumb and forefinger)
Lying on the cold cold ground (wave arm across front with palm facing down)
Somebody came and stepped on me (stomp foot)
That is why I'm cracked you see (zig zap motion with forefinger)
I'm a nut (clap clap), in a rut (clap clap), I'm crazy (circle finger around ear)

Called myself on the telephone (dial phone)
Just to see if I was home (pretend to answer phone: pinkie and thumb extended like phone)
Asked myself out for a date (point to self)
Gotta be ready by half past eight! (yell this lyric while shrugging shoulders with palms upwards like you're excited)
I'm a nut (clap clap), in a rut (clap clap), I'm crazy (circle finger around ear)

Took myself to the picture show (walk with fingers)
Sat myself in the very first row (draw a line with finger)
Wrapped my arms around my waist (wrap arms around waist)
Got so fresh I slapped my face! (slap face)
I'm a nut (clap clap), in a rut (clap clap), I'm crazy (circle finger around ear)
Thanks very much to Carrie Kelley, who sent me this extra verse:

Grandpa's beard is long and white!
Sleeps with it under the covers at night!
Grandma thinks it's shredded wheat!
So she chews it in her sleep!
Thanks very much to Eva Gorny, who sent me this extra verse:

Took myself on a rowboat ride,
Me, myself, and I inside,
Looked into the stars above,
Told myself I was in love.

For BykrBayb (Say hello to Billy)

Will do. I always tell him who says "hi" whenever he calls. (Sometimes he doesn't have time, so I save it for the next call.) It's always a long list of people. I can almost hear him blushing over the phone!

Wildflower
She's faced the hardest times you can imagine
And many times her eyes fought back the tears
And when her youthful world was about to fall in
Each time her slender shoulders
Bore the weight of all her fears
And a sorrow no one hears
She rings in midnight silence
in her ears

Let her cry, for she's a lady
Let her dream, for she's a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She's a free and gentle flower
growing wild

And if by chance that I should hold her
Let me hold her for a time
But it allowed just one possession
I would pick her from the garden to be mine
Be careful how you touch her for she’ll awaken
And sleep’s the only freedom that she knows
And when you walk into her eyes you won’t believe
The way she’s always paying for a debt she never owes
And a silent wind still blows that only she can hear
And so she goes

Let her cry, for she’s a lady
Let her dream, for she’s a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She’s a free and gentle flower
growing wild

A song? that sums it all up?

Thats a big order!

Lets keep it simple:

From "Circle"

"Raise and fall,
turn the wheel,
all life is,
is really just a circle"

Great is Thy faithfulness
Oh God, my Father.
There is no shadow of turning with Thee.
All I have needed, Thy hand hath provided.
Great is Thy faithfulness,
Lord,unto me.

The fourth line makes me tear up, because it is the absolute truth in my life.
