WITH A SMILE . . .

This song has a very special message. It was written by Neville Peter and performed by Gladys Knight, one of my favorite people!!

WITH A SMILE you can show the world you care -- With a smile you’ll inspire the world to share -- If you show the world a smiling face, It will come back to you. You don’t need to be crying, So good to see you trying WITH A SMILE.

The biggest problems seem so small -- WITH A SMILE you will rise above them all. Oh, it shouldn’t be so hard to display the Love of God. I know that we can do it WITH A SMILE.

Oh a SMILE can turn Grief to laughter. A SMILE can turn Hate to love. It can make a bleeding heart Forget the pain. It can drive the blues away, Turn the night into day. You can do all these things WITH A SMILE.

You can weather any storm -- When it’s cold you’ll be able to stay warm. I’ve got one more thing to say: Don’t let them take Your SMILE away -- ‘Cause what I said is true. All these things a smile can do. You’ll just have to try -- I know you’ll see -- Take it from me

You can do all these things, You can do all these things, You can do all these things WITH A SMILE, WITH A SMILE!!!!

SHOWER THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE WITH LOVE

You can play the game and you can act out the part but you know it wasn’t written for you

But tell me how can you stand there with your broken heart ashamed of playing the fool,

One thing can lead to another it doesn’t take any sacrifice,

Oh father and mother and sister and brother, if it feels nice don’t think twice,

Just shower the people you love with love, show them the way that you feel

Things are gonna work out fine if you only will, do as I say

Shower the people you love with love, show them the way you feel

Things are gonna be much better if you only will.

You can run but you cannot hide this is why we know

What you plan do with your foolish pride when you’re all by yourself alone

Once you tell somebody the way that you feel, you can feel it beginning to ease.

I think it’s true what they say about the squeaky wheel always getting the grease.

Better to shower the people you love with love, show them the way that you feel

Things are gonna work out fine if you only will, what I like to do to you,

Shower the people you love with love, show them the way you feel

Things are gonna be much better if you only will

Shower the people you love with love, show them the way that you feel

Shower the people you love with love, show them the way that you feel

Shower the people you love with love, show them the way that you feel

Shower the people you love with love, show them the way that you feel

Shower the people you love with love, show them the way that you feel

Shower the people, Shower the people, Shower the people, Shower the people…..

WHEN YOU'RE SMILING -- Song

When you’re smiling, when you’re smiling

The whole world smiles with you.

When you’re laughing, when you’re laughing

The sun comes shining through.

But when you’re crying, you bring on the rain

So stop your crying, be happy again.

Keep on smiling, ‘cause when you’re smiling

The whole world smiles with you.

Love In Any Language

This is a very powerful and meaningful song that expresses the feelings of my heart. It was sung and made popular by Sandi Patti.

Love In Any Language

Je t'aime

Te amo

Ya ti-bya lyu blyu

Ani o hev ot cha

I love you

The sounds are all as different

As the lands from which they came

And though the words are all unique

Our hearts are still the same

Love in any language

Straight from the heart

Pulls us all together

Never apart

And once we learn to speak it

All the world will hear

Love in any language

Fluently spoken here

We teach the young our differences

Yet look how we're the same

We love to laugh, to dream our dreams

We know the sting of pain

From Leningrad to Lexington

The farmer loves his land

And daddies all get misty-eyed

To give their daughter's hand

Oh maybe when we realize

How much there is to share

We'll find too much in common

To pretend it isn't there

Love in any language

Straight from the heart

Pulls us all together

Never apart

And once we learn to speak it

All the world will hear

Love in any language

Fluently spoken here

Tho' the rehtoric of government

May keep us worlds apart

There's no misinterpreting

The language of the heart

Love in any language

Straight from the heart

Pulls us all together

Never apart

And once we learn to speak it

All the world will hear

Love in any language

Fluently spoken here
