“Through Heaven’s Eyes”
from The Prince of Egypt
“Through Heaven’s Eyes”
A single thread in a tapestry-
Though its color brightly shine-
Can never see its purpose
In the pattern of the grand design.
And the stone that sits on the very top
Of the mountain’s mighty face-
Does it think it’s more important
Than the stones that form the base?
So how can you see what your life is worth
Or where your value lies?
You can never see through the eyes of man
You must look at your life,
Look at your life through heaven’s eyes.
Lai-la-lai...
A lake of gold in the desert sand
Is less than a cool fresh spring-
And to one lost sheep, a shepherd boy
Is greater than the richest king.
If a man lose ev’rything he owns,
Has he truly lost his worth?
Or is it the beginning
Of a new and brighter birth?
So how do you measure the worth of a man-
In wealth or strength or size?
In how much he gained or how much he gave?
The answer will come,
The answer will come to him who tries
To look at his life through heaven’s eyes.
And that’s why we share all we have with you,
Though there’s little to be found.
When all you’ve got is nothing,
There’s a lot to go around.
No life can escape being blown about
By the winds of change and chance,
And though you never know all the steps,
You must learn to join the dance-
You must learn to join the dance.
Lai-la-lai...
So how do you judge what a man is worth?
By what he builds or buys?
You can never see with your eyes on earth-
Look through heaven’s eyes.
Look at your life,
Look at your life,
Look at your life through heaven’s eyes!

Some Enchanted Evening
All from South Pacific
How about "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo"?
okay, no, really, I'm kidding about that last one!
No way! I saw it countless times, never enough... that led into the bossa nova era... “Manha de Carnaval” is a beautiful song.
While I am thinking of it, perhaps the best song in the Bond series is “We’ve got all the time in the world” sung by Louis Armstrong from the movie “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”. George Lazenby (the black sheep of Bonds) plays 007 in his only Bond movie (1969). Good movie. Excellent soundtrack. And I think one of the prettiest (and more complex) Bond girls - Diana Rigg as the beautiful contessa Tracy.

Care packages mailed! 5 minutes to spare. I don’t go to this post office very often, but what a couple of fun folks. The guy talked the whole time to his customer, the rest of the customers, the other po folks. The wait went by quickly.
Curley fries?
We have the Civil War soundtrack.......and Ashokan Farewell has to be one of the most beautiful songs ever!
