Seek and you will find, but what will you find?

Open up your answer book,

What do you suppose you'll find?

Answers to the questions

You didn't even know you had in mind.

Truth is ephemeral,

Elusive as a wraith.

No matter what you come to know,

All you ever really have is faith.



Life presents its problems.

Every problem is a puzzle to be solved.

If you seek to find the key,

Sincerity will have to be involved.

Know God loves you,

and has loved you from the start.

Read it in your answer book

God has written in your heart.

Best of Spirits

Cycles keep passing me by

1.
        G
It's my birthday -- I'm doing the dishes
    Em
And thinking of the birthday wishes
     Am                            G
that I've received from friends of mine
           F                  D
I think my friends are really fine
2.
           G
I'm twenty-two, and the storm rages on
         Em   
Which distracts me from my askin' where have all the sages gone?
        Am                        Bbdim
And the wisdom of the ages handed down from man to man
 Em                             G
Amounts to "here's your planet, just do what you can."
3.
        G
It's my birthday, for what it's worth
         Em
Counting off day by day from my birth.
          Am                 G
Without a sense of the truly great
            Am                    D
There would be no higher purposes I could appreciate

        G
It's my birthday. The rippling thunder
Em
underscores my sense of wonder
          Am                          Bbdim
That even though I sit alone, I'm not completely on my own
           G
There's so many helping me go through my changes to be grown
5.
        G
Another cycle is passing me by
      Em
But I don't have time to think about the one where I may die
          Am                 G
Because tomorrow can't top today
              Am                            D
Although it's just like yesterday in almost every other way
6.
           G
Today's my birthday. I'll do what I can
            Em
To serve my Father in Heaven and my fellow man
                  Am                 G
And 'though we're far from our final ends
       Am                           D                G
I'm so glad that we have learned to live and love as friends!



The Art of

Admissions of limitations as a songsmith.

1.
Eb            Db      C
Ain't nothin' much in music
    Bb           C
The words barely rhyme
Bb               C
Nothing profound most of the time

    Eb        Db      C
And maybe the songs I sing
     Bb         C
Mean nothing to you
   Bb               C
Forget them all  is all you'll do

     C             D       E     Am
I suppose it's too much to hope
F       E
I could make you cry
Am     E
Love's tear in your eye
2.
E          D
--- A song so full of beauty
E                 D
You would come to see your duty
Eb            Db
--- Or one to help you along
      C
Just enough to get by

   C     Bb    C         Bb
Oh my oh my oh live your life
    C     Bb    C         Bb
And my oh my oh take your chances
    C          Bb   C            Bb
The secret who sits right in the center
C          Bb         C          Bb
Loves everyone in the circle who dances
3.
    Eb    Db            C
Yet now before I stray away
     Bb                      C
From what I first set out to say
  Eb          Db           C
I hope you'll stay for the whole show
 Bb - C    Bb - C
(hm - mm   hm - mm)

    C      D              E       Am
And if you can't take the songs I sing
   F                E            Am  E
If they don't reach you where we all are
Eb         Db         C
    That's all right, too.
Bb                       C
They weren't written for you.
