1)Swimming to Survive

Swimming To Survive

SWIMMING TO SURVIVE

Intro (sung only once)
My mother taught me how to swim
When I was very young
Swimming to survive

Round
You kick, and then you glide
You kick, kick, and then you glide

It’a all in the rhythm
It’a all in the rhythm
It’a all in the rhythm of the heart

Keep breathing, it’s the most important part
Keep breathing, it’s the most important part

THAT KIND OF WOMAN

That kind of woman makes the world go ‘round
Clap your hands
Slide, slide
Time after time doesn’t she take the time
To listen to your troubles
To make a good connection
To tell you that she loves you, madly!

SHINE ON

I can feel the heat
Like a ball of fire
Like the heavenly sound
Of a gospel choir
I can see the light
Like a brand new day
Like a bolt of lightning
It takes my breath away.

CHORUS:

Shine on, shine on, shine on
Shine a heavenly light
Shine on, shine on, shine on

I can hear the sound
Like a charmin’ bell
Like a soft reminder
All is well
I can feel the beat
Like the wings of a dove
Like a heart on fire
Full of the light of love

CHORUS

BRIDGE:

Burnin’ bright, making day from night
It’s such a welcome sight, here comes the light
Here comes the light, here comes the sun
Here comes the heat–this is heaven!

CHORUS

Shine On

KELLOG’S RICE KRISPIES

SNAP! What a happy sound
Snap is the happiest sound I’ve found
You may clap, rap, tap, slap
SNAP makes the world go ‘round

I say it’s CRACKLE, the crispy sound
You gotta have Crackle or the clock’s not wound
Geese cackle, feathers, tickle, belts buckle, beets pickle
CRACKLE makes the world go ‘round

I insist that POP’s the sound
The best is missed unless Pop’s around
You can’t stop hoppin’ when the cereal’s poppin’
POP makes the world go ‘round

KINDER

I’ve decided to be happy, I’ve decided to be glad
I’ve decided to be grateful for all I ever had
I’ve decided to let go of all this pain to night
I’ve decided to let go of all the demons inside

I know I am blessed.
I know all I ever wanted was this
I know I don’t need more.
I’ve got what I came for.

I’ve decided to be open to that little voice inside
Telling me I’m beautiful, it’s okay to be alive
I’ve decided to be kinder to myself when I feel sad
I’ve decided to be grateful for all I ever had

I know I am blessed.
I know all I ever wanted was this
I know I don’t need more.
I’ve got what I came for.
