This song is close to my heart.I have seen Paddy Reilly many times bless him.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYWnv02NGSI

You may travel far far from your own native land
Far away o'er the mountains, far away o'er the foam
But of all the fine places that I've ever been
Sure there's none can compare with the cliffs of Doneen

Take a view o'er the mountains, fine sights you'll see there
You'll see the high rocky mountains o'er the west coast of Clare
Oh the town of Kilkee and Kilrush can be seen
From the high rocky slopes round the cliffs of Doneen

It's a nice place to be on a fine summer's day
Watching all the wild flowers that ne'er do decay
Oh the hares and lofty pheasants are plain to be seen
Making homes for their young round the cliffs of Doneen

Fare thee well to Doneen, fare thee well for a while
And to all the kind people I'm leaving behind
To the streams and the meadows where late I have been
And the high rocky slopes round the cliffs of Doneen

I came across this song and thought it was lovely...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_cxjcQfQoQ&feature=related
There are days
when I feel
The best of me
is ready to begin (the end)
Then there's (the) days
when I feel
I'm letting go
and soaring on the wind
'Cause I've learned in laughter or in pain
How to survive!

I get on my knees!
There I am before the Love
That changes me
See I don't know how
But there's power
When I'm on my knees

I can be
in a crowd
Or by myself
and almost anywhere
When I feel
there's a need
To talk with God
He is Emmanuel
When I close my eyes,
no darkness there
There's only light!

I get on my knees
There I am before the Love that changes me
See I don't know how, but there's power
In the blue skies, in the midnight
When I'm on my knees
I get on my knees
There I am before the Love
That changes me
See I don't know how, but there's power
When I'm on my, oh, when I'm on my
When I'm on my knees

I came across this song tonight and I thought the words are so lovely and meaningful...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCGrWz4Fn4M

You give to me what life should be for everyone.
You're my pepper, you're my salt, my favorite tea.
You're my sunset on the ocean, my desert dawn.
So much of you is now a part of me.

I know a greater power must have noticed me,
And decided I would meet someone like you.
No-one on this planet thought we could ever be,
Till He gave my heart to you, and yours to me.

You've given us our children and a recipe:
For you and I, love comes naturally.
My love is somehow different than I'd have it be,
An' it's workin' on my heart, not into me.

So I know a greater power must have noticed me,
And decided I would meet someone like you.
No-one on this planet thought we could ever be,
Till He gave my heart to you, and yours to me.

La playa se ha dormido en tu silencio,
Las olas ya no vienen a suspirar,
Triste se queda el tiempo sin tu presente,
Tristes suenan las notas de mi cantar.

Clavadas se quedaron sobre la arena
Todas las ilusiones que yo tejí,
Pero el viento y el agua borró sus huellas,
Nadie sabrá en la vida lo que escribí.

Las velas de los barcos lloran tu ausencia,
Donde voy a encontrar (donde voy a encontrar)
Un amor como tú (un amor como tú)
Que nació al escuchar el ruido del mar

Bajo el cielo azul.
Nunca más hallaré (nunca más hallaré)
Quien comprenda mi amor (quien comprenda mi amor)
Pues no habrá otro querer
Que sepa escuchar mi triste canción.
Las rocas que recogen tu dulce voz
Tristes y acongojados sin tu presencia,
Tristes suenan las notas de mi canción.

Puede que otro verano no vuelva a verte,
Puede que incluso pienses que te olvide,
Pero aunque ahora finjas no conocerme,
Siempre con toda el alma yo te querré.

Donde voy a encontrar (donde voy a encontrar)
Un amor como tú (un amor como tú)
Que nació al escuchar el ruido del mar
Bajo el cielo azul.

Nunca más hallaré (nunca más hallaré)
Quien comprenda mi amor (quien comprenda mi amor)
Pues no habrá otro querer
Que sepa escuchar mi triste canción.

Pues no habrá otro querer
Que sepa escuchar mi triste canción.
Pues no habrá otro querer
Que sepa escuchar mi triste canción.

"Friends are Quiet Angels"

Re:music that speaks to me... (sandra67)

Dearest Isabella popped this song onto another post.I am sure she will not mind me sharing it on here too.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X7d7Ul6PmI&feature=related

"Friends are Quiet Angels"

Friends are quiet angels
Who lift us to our feet
When our wings have trouble remembering how to fly
They stand by us and give us
the strength to try

Friends are quiet angels
Who somehow make you see
The light that's in the darkness
before the dawn
All at once the journey's not so long

But it's the laughter and the fun
Sometimes the feeling that we're one
All the tears we cry together you and I
That will keep us heart to heart
as time goes by

Friends are quiet angels
Who fill your life with grace
Thrilled to share your joy
when a dream comes true
And on this special day
I'm blessed 'cause I can say
I've found a quiet angel
You're a special angel
I found a quiet angel in you

I am holding onto the words of this song so much...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=GB&hl=en-GB&v=PfuJSYG9JbI

Lead me Lord
lead me by the hand
and let me face the rising sun
comfort through all the pain
that life may bring

There's no other hope
that i can lean upon
Lead me Lord,
lead me all my live...

Walk by me Walk by me
across the lonely roads that i may face
take my arms and let your hand
show me the way

Show the way to live inside your heart
All my days,
all my life...

You are my light
you're the lamp upon my feet
All the Time, my lord i need you there
You are my light
I can not live alone
let me stay, by your guiding love
All through my live
Lead me Lord...

Lead me Lord,
eventhough at times
i'd rather go along my way
help me take the right direction

Take your road
Lead me lord
and never leave my side
all my days, all my life...

You are my light
you're the lamp upon my feet
All the Time, my lord i need you there
You are my light
I can not live alone
let me stay, by your guiding love
All through my life...

You are my light
you're the lamp upon my feet
All the Time, my lord i need you there
You are my light
oh, Lord...

I heard this song this morning on the radio.For me it speaks volumes...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7-Tb_FsWRw

Blowin' In The Wind

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

ON EAGLE'S WINGS
Michael Joncas

You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord,
who abide in His shadow for life,
say to the Lord: "My refuge, my rock in whom I trust!"

        Refrain: And He will raise you up on eagles’ wings,
                      bear you on the breath of dawn,
                      make you to shine like the sun,
                      and hold you in the palm of His hand.

The snare of the fowler will never capture you,
and famine will bring you no fear:
under His wings your refuge, His faithfulness your shield.

        Refrain: And He will raise you up on eagles’ wings,
                      bear you on the breath of dawn,
                      make you to shine like the sun,
                      and hold you in the palm of His hand.

You need not fear the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day;
though thousands fall about you, near you it shall not come.

        Refrain: And He will raise you up on eagles’ wings,
                      bear you on the breath of dawn,
                      make you to shine like the sun,
                      and hold you in the palm of His hand.

For to His angels He's given a command
to guard you in all of your ways;
upon their hands they will bear you up,
lest you dash your foot against a stone.

Refrain: And He will raise you up on eagles’ wings,
                      bear you on the breath of dawn,
                      make you to shine like the sun,
                      and hold you in the palm of His hand.

You raise me up xoxoox

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

I have been bought, I have been sold in the city I've dined with the demons and I drank of their fear but you, you have known and waited in silence come cradle my heart in a homecoming tear

And what is expressed in the lyrics is what I feel each time a child is born.

Starting at the top of this thread, I have just listened to "When a Child is Born". (I can always listen to one song only - so please forgive me for not mentioning the others. They´ll wait patiently, I think ).

Dear Sandra,

Thank you for posting it! I love it. And what is expressed in the lyrics is what I feel each time a child is born.

Love,
Juliana

for sharing this music
which speaks to you . . .

here is something that speaks to me . . .

I cannot go anymore to the marshes
where the gatekeeper smiles at the poisons that he's made
for my heart belongs to the one on the mountain
where the doves build their nests in the sun-ripened glade

for I am the mercury - light of the morning
looking for shelter in this thunder and this rain
and you like some windmill weave light where its storming
your love like a potion for the hunger and the pain
Let it rain

I have been bought, I have been sold in the city
I've dined with the demons and I drank of their fear
but you, you have known and waited in silence
come cradle my heart in a homecoming tear

and we are the mercury - light of the morning
looking for shelter in this thunder and this rain
and he like some windmill weaves light where its storming
his love like a potion for the hunger and the pain

let it rain - let it rain
let it rain on the mountain
let it rain

let it rain
with love . . .
