A spiritually oriented medley

[Chorus:]
        Em       D
You get unending love
     C
from Paradise
        Em          D
You can blame it on them
           C
But that's just a device
    Em           D
For ignoring the way
       C
You're led to be wise

         D

Run to the Preacher, part 1

        Em         D
Can you run to the preacher
        B7         Em
Can you run to the Lord
            Em       D
When you're tired of waiting
            B7        Em
When you're stiff and bored
        Em           D
Can you hear Brother Jesus
    B7           Em
Can you hear the Christ
         Em       D
When you fail the first time
    B7        Em
And won't try twice
   [chorus]
[Chorus:]
        Em       D
You get unending love
     C
from Paradise
        Em          D
You can blame it on them

Experience (for Mary Jo)

    Em              D
I'm looking for the words to say
   Em               D
To say what's in my mind
    Em            D
The Truth of my experience
     Em             D
What only life will find
      Em            D
There is no message I could make
   Em              D
No meaning I could show
Em              D
Spirits I could not define
    Em               D
Nor how they help me grow
   [chorus]
[Chorus:]
        Em       D
You get unending love
     C
from Paradise
        Em          D
You can blame it on them
           C
But that's just a device

You're led to be wise
     Cmaj7
In a universe of
         D
Infinite size
Em              D
Come and take a walk with me
      Em               D
We'll watch each other live
   Em                D
Perhaps to touch the unseen one
    Em               D
And what there is to give
    Em            D
And if you do not find the one
   Em              D
As we walk hand in hand
   Em                    D
Perhaps you'll touch the one inside
       Em    D     C
You're given to command
   [chorus]
[Chorus:]
        Em       D
You get unending love
     C
from Paradise
        Em          D
You can blame it on them
           C
But that's just a device

Mind and Body

1.
Em          D
Live in the body
   B7             Em
It makes the mind reel
   Em          D
To feel how to think
       B7           Em
And to think how to feel
   Em        D
To touch intuition
    B7         Em
And know the appeal
   Cmaj7
of Unity

Em          D
Live in the body
     B7          Em
It's blowing the mind
   Em           D
To know all the bodies
     B7         Em
That get left behind
Em            D
Each of their moments
        B7       Em
Watched in the unwinding
   Cmaj7
of Unity
   [chorus]
[Chorus:]
        Em       D
You get unending love
     C
from Paradise
        Em          D
You can blame it on them
           C
But that's just a device

Bethlehem Babe and Atom Bomb

1.
Em                 D
Bethlehem Babe and Atom Bomb
      D                     Em
Each emerged from the Human Race
  Em              D
Enveloping two philosophies
  D              Em
Opposing face to face
     Em               D
When some final conflagration
           D               Em
Leaves you nowhere left to hide
         Em              D
Will you go and question Jesus
           D              Em
Where He's teaching you inside?

2.
        Em               D
All the stallions of the death-watch
        D             Em
And the furies of our strife
    Em              D
Overlaid by his dedication
       D            Em
To the Principal of Life
          Em          D
Can there be a higher question
       D                  Em
Than deciding between the two
Em              D
If mankind's to conquer death
         Em     D       C
Then let living conquer you!
   [chorus]
[Chorus:]
        Em       D
You get unending love
     C
from Paradise
        Em          D
You can blame it on them
           C
But that's just a device

Easter Tune, part 1

C         D
Well over one thousand
Em         C
worshipers saw a
C           D
man who had died and they
Em           C
all stood in awe of a
C          D
message of hope which he
Em            C
brought from above
Cmaj7
We are the children they
D
love
C            D
How much you love is how
Em            C
much you're a Son
C                 D
That's how you're serving the
Em       C
Infinite One
C           D
Part of the character
Em       C

Run to the Preacher, part 2

        Em          D
Can you live in the Spirit
        B7            Em
Can you live with you mind
         Em      D
When you see the truth
          B7            Em
But can't face what you find?
    Em        D
Can you be committed
   B7       Em
To being at One
   Cmaj7                D
If you can't accept the Son?
   [chorus]
[Chorus:]

You get unending love

Jesus is risen He's
Em
risen indeed
C           D
Now that he knows us and
