Let There Be Light

Chorus: 
Let there be light
Let there be joy
Let there be love
And understanding
Let there be peace
Throughout the land. 

Verse: 
Let’s work together
In harmony
Let’s build a better world
No suffering

And in times of darkness
Just reach out
‘Cause there is a promise
It won’t be denied

Repeat Chorus Six Times

Narration: 

This is truly paradise
Being here in this celestial garden
With all the ones you love
Where nothing dies or ever grows old
And to be bathed in light
That cast no shadow

Yes
This is the Kingdom within
Still you know
Sometimes I miss seeing and feeling
The Spirits Dancing in the Flesh 



Spirits Dancing in the Flesh

Intro: 
Can’t you see them all around
They’re all around us
Spirits, spirits dancing all around us

Chorus - Chant: 

Spirits
Dancing in the Flesh, the Spirits
Spirits
Dancing in the Flesh, the Spirits
Spirits
Dancing in the Flesh, the Spirits
Spirits
Dancing in the Flesh, the Spirits
All over, all over, all over

. . .


(Music/ Lyrics: Curtis Mayfield)

From nowhere 
Through a caravan 
Around the campfire light 
A lovely woman in motion 
With hair as dark as night 
Her eyes were like that
Of a cat in the dark 
They hypnotize me with love

She was a gypsy woman 
She was a gypsy woman 

She danced around and round 
To a guitar melody 
From the fire her face 
Was all aglow 
How she enchanted me 
Oh how I’d like to hold her near 
And kiss and forever whisper in her ear 

I love you gypsy woman 

All through the caravan 
She was dancing with all the men 
Waiting for the rising sun 
Everyone was having fun 

I hate to see the lady go 
Knowing she’ll never know 
That I love her 

That I love her 

She danced around and round 
To a guitar melody 
From the fire her face 
Was all aglow 
How she enchanted me 
Oh how I’d like to hold her near 
And kiss and forever whisper in her ear

. . .



(scream) I just gotta get away
Can’t stand it
Children suffer every day

Tell me baby
What’s it for
Fighting daily
For the turf

We’re still killing each other
In the name of the Lord
There’s a brand new graffiti
With blood on the walls

Peace... are you that far away?

Now you can feel it
Other people’s pain
Love can heal it
Gentle as the rain

Oh, the United Nations drag their feet on the floor
All they do is spend your money
They don’t tell you what for

Peace... what price we have to pay
Peace... there’s gotta be a better way

People tell me it’s useless to look for a way
I believe that tomorrow starts right here, today

Peace... are you that far away
Peace... there’s gotta be a better way

Peace... are you that far away
Peace... there’s gotta be a better way
Peace, peace
There’s gotta be a better way
Peace, peace oh oh oh peace

(Music/ Lyrics: Carlos Santana, Alex J. Ligertwood, & Chester Thompson)

Tell me
What you gonna do
Where you gonna go
You’re running out of time. 

Hey baby
What’s it gonna be
Are you gonna stay
Do you wanna be free. 

Choose what ya gonna do
Choose do what you gotta do
Choose whats ya gonna be
Choose, do what ya gotta do. 

New day
The time is right
Ya make the move
You do what you gotta do. 

You’re free
If you wanna be
You’ll see
Ain’t nothing gonna stop you. 

Choose whats ya gonna do
Choose, do what ya gotta do
Choose whats ya gonna be
Choose, I believe to my soul that ya gotta be free. 

New day
Time is right
Ya make the move
Do what ya gotta do. 

You’re free
If you wanna be
You’ll see
Ain’t nothin’ gonna stop you. 

Choose what you gonna do
Choose do what you gotta do
Choose what you gonna do
Choose do what you gotta do.

Hey everybody
Let’s lend a hand
'Cause there’s no tomorrow
Unless we take a stand

I see the future
Sliping away
So I feel the need
To make a better way

You know my mother
She’s your mother too
'Cause this here planet
Gave birth to me and you

I got the feeling 
That you’ll understand
When we say let’s do it
Save the mother earth

. . .

Who’s that lady......(who’s that lady)
Beautiful lady........(who’s that lady)
Lovely lady...........( who’s that lady)
Real fine lady

Hear me calling out to you
'Cause that’s all that I can do
Your eyes tell me to pursue
But you say look, yea, but don’t touch baby!
No, no, no don’t touch

Who’s that lady......(who’s that lady)
Sexy lady.............(who’s that lady)
Beautiful lady........(who’s that lady)
Real fine lady

I would dance upon a string
Any gifts she’d want I’d bring
I would giver her anything
If she would just do what I say

Come 'round my way baby
Shine my way

Who’s that lady
Beautiful lady
Lovely lady
Real real fine lady

I would love to take her home
But her heart is made of stone
But I’ll keep on keepin’ on
If I don’t she’ll do me wrong
Do me wrong

Background: Look yeah, but don’t touch
Just do what I say
Don’t, she’ll do me wrong

. . .
