Guide us I pray On a path of peace and beauty May we never stray From its golden way. And teach us each day From the heart of truth and compassion, May we clearly hear from loves's wisdom each day. And in all that we do May loves's hand guide our hand For to know what is true We must hear love's command. And help us each day To love each other And love ourselves, So that we may see our humanity. And teach us I pray The power of life's holy breath. That alive in our hearts It will truly start To lift us all up on the wings of lIfe's song To heal us and show us Where we truly belong.

As I wake up this morning I thank You for this day Thank You for your Love that fills my heart and guides my way. Thank You for the joy of living near to You inside Thank You for Your gentle voice that calls me when I hide. Thank You for Your tender arms that lift me when I fall Thank You now for being everything I need, my all. As I wake up the morning I thank You for this life. Thank You for the sun and moon and stars that share Your light Thank You for the birds that remind me of Your music Thank You for the gift of song. and the Grace that lets me use it Thank You for the sweetness of LIfe's nectar flowing through me Thank You now for bringing me to my true family

Down across the ages we have come Seeking each other, seeking the One I see it deep reflected in your gaze The way the light illuminates your face The ancient knowing deep within your eyes Lets me see you , lets me feel you Lets me see you , lets me feel you I know you I know you I hear the heart song of our journey I feel the merging of our fate So come now So come now Hand and hand we'll walk together, Immerse ourselves into the Sacred River She carries us She nurtures us She brings us Love She brings us home

The song of my heart is Your song The dream of my soul is Your dream I hold the many within the One I see the One within me

River of life River of peace You're in my heart You're in my dreams Carry your love into my soul Carry your hope into the world Mystical Mother, Queen on your throne Carry us with You Carry us home You have made the sky All the birds that fly Given them their wings Taught them how to sing Heralds of the light Hail the passing of night. You have made the sun All the worlds from one Like the rain must fall You reside in all Turning round and round Lost in You I'm found
6.
If I turn my eyes away Please turn them back again, For You are the only one I want to see. If I give my heart away, please come and rescue me. For I love You more than life itself, For Your love is the air I breathe. Oh Beloved, when will I learn to see You never leave me. Oh my sweet love, please teach me to see For I need You more than life itself, For Your love is the air I breathe. Every time I take a step, Please keep me by Your side I need to feel the shelter of Your hand in mine. All my life I've waited for Your love And I want You more than life itself For You love is the air I breathe. Yes I need You more than life itself For Your love is the air I breathe.
7.
Please grant us the strength To hold on to our light In the midst of darkness, To let it shine out And be a beacon To those who are lost, To those who are afraid and suffering. Allow us all to see The beauty in the darkness, Hear the song in the silence, Speak the words of Love In the face of hate. To hold to the stillness In the eye of the storm. May our hearts be filled and overflowing with Love Unconditional. So Be it.

about

I am exited to offer this collection of songs and poetry as my way to bring the awareness of joy, inner peace, connection and unity into today's world . May we celebrate and honor our differences and recognize we are all the same inside our heart of hearts. May we honor all of nature and this precious life we have been given.

I would like to thank my husband Vinny, and my children and grandchildren, and my beautiful friends.
I especially want to thank Maxima Kahn for the Artist Way class www.brilliantplayground.com and my daughter Aurora Barr www.singwithpraisevocals.com who helped me remember I had a voice.
A special note of gratitude to Scott Sheerin www.healingmusicnow.com without whom this music would have not made its way into a form I can share with so many!
Infinite gratitude to my teachers in this lifetime, especially Prem Rawat www.timelesstoday.com , Eliot Cowan www.plantspiritmedicine.org , The Sacred Fire Community www.sacredfirecommunity.org, and the Divine Feminine.

"Annie's music is a transcendent elixir for our trying times...it transported me straight into my heart space and enveloped me in peace. I will be listening to this again and again to help me feel connected to a greater truth.." Lori V

"....these sacred prayers serve to illuminate our way back to deep remembrance within the very essence of our being....thank you..." Dawn R
