01. Trust What You Hear C 2007 Laurie Story Vela

Who built the ark? Noah! Noah!
How did he build it? He built it with trust.
Who built the ark? Noah! Noah!
Why did he build it? His heart told him he must!

CHORUS:
Just like Noah*, God talks to you.
Just like Noah*, you can listen too!
God never gives us more than we can do.
Listen to your heart. Trust what you hear
God is calling to you!!
(*Replace: Harriet Tubman, Martin, Me)

Who led the underground railroad? Harriet Tubman!
How did she lead them? She led them with trust.
Who led the underground railroad? Harriet Tubman!
Why did she lead them?? Her heart told her she must!
CHORUS * Harriet Tubman

Who spoke for justice? Martin Jr!
How did he speak out? He spoke out with trust.
Who spoke for justice? Martin Jr!
Why did he speak out? His heart told him he must!
CHORUS * Martin

Bridge:
You don’t have to build a big ark or make a great speech.
You don’t have to be extra brave or make history.
You’ll hear what to do, you’ll know your part.
If you just listen to your heart!
CHORUS *me
God is calling to you!! God is calling to me!!
God is calling to us!! Listen! Sssshhhhh!

03. I Am Free C 2007 Laurie Story Vela Tune: Drunken Sailor

CHORUS:
Oh, I Am free to live all the love inside of me
I’m full of blessings inside and out.
Life is so great that I have to shout,
“Thank you God!”

Oh, I am free!
To play and jump and climb a tree.
I’m blessed with a strong and healthy body
built for fun, just look at me run!
CHORUS

Oh, I am free!
To change the way that I can see.
If things aren’t how they should be,
I can still choose to be happy!
Chorus

Oh, I am free!
To live the highest part of me.
I can always make the choice
to listen to my still small voice!
CHORUS

09. I Remember C 2008 Laurie Story Vela

There are so many things to remember;
sometimes I forget. That's why I have planners
and calendar and why I make daily lists:
take the kids to the dentist, mom to the Dr.,
me to the threrapist, get the shopping done and the errands run, remember dinner is promptly at 6:00. WHAT?! I forgot the milk?! Good thing I remember this!
CHORUS:
I remember, I remember, I remember who I am,
I'm a child of God born to love and serve
in all the best ways I can!
When I look down deep inside of me,
then I truly understand.
I'm a child of God born to love and serve;
I remember who I am!

There's a lot of important stuff I know;
I remember it everywhere I go ...
like saying please and thank you
and letting my smile show.
I remember or I'm reminded
to eat my vegies so I will grow
and when the teacher asks me what I remember,
I answer her row by row ... WHAT?! I missed 6?!
Good thing I remember this ...
CHORUS

Life is full of moments; memories we wouldn't have missed.
I recall family vacations. I remember my first real kiss.
And in the every day opportunities ....
like remembering where I left my keys.
or finding my shoes ... or my eye glasses ~
HELP ME PLEASE!
Oh, your shoes are under the bed!
Your glasses are on your head!
OH! And good thing we can remind each other of this:
CHORUS
I remember who I am! I remember whooooo ... I am!

C 1998 Flower Seed Laurie Story Vela

CHORUS:
All my relations, all my relations,
all my relations are here with me.
All my relations, all my relations,
all my relations are here with me.

People of the past, people here and now,
people yet to come are here with me.
The young and the old, the weak and the bold,
all their stories told are here with me.
CHORUS

The mountains standing high, the blue of the sky,
the winged ones who fly are here with me.
The ground I'm standing on, the waterfall's song,
the pines tall and long are here with me.
CHORUS

All my flower friends, their petals and their stems,
the sweet smells of them are here with me.
Big granite rocks, loud bluejay squawks,
flight of redtail hawks are here with me.
CHORUS

The germs of disease, the roaches and the fleas,
mosquitos and the bees are here with me.
Hurricanes and floods, the sliding of the mud,
the earthquake thuds are here with me.
CHORUS

The hungar and the pain, the fall of acid rain,
the things we can't explain are here with me.
All the times of war, every retail store,
oil spills on the shore are here with me.
CHORUS

The food from the land, all the working hands,
the package and the can are here with me.
The plants and the beasts who give their lives to feast,
yes, all the lives we eat are here with me.
CHORUS

Whatever money's worth, every baby's birth,
the heartbeats of the earth are here with me.
The moon and the sun and everything to come,
the song of my relations is never done!
CHORUS
