Spring Is Alive



Spring is alive

In Carolina

Deep in the forest

Where the foxfire glows

High on a mountain

Down in a holler

Thunder and lightning

So it goes



Over a hundred years ago

We came to Carolina

Far across the water

It??s a long hard road



With little more than courage

We came seeking independence

A little less than nothin??

Is a heavy load



From the heather of the highlands

We have found the Smokie Mountains

Hard work and simple ways

And life is good

life is good



Spring is alive

In Carolina

Deep in the forest

Where the foxfire glows

High on a mountain

Down in a holler

Thunder and lightning

So it goes



You Are



You are every morning sunrise

You are every rain

You are every peal of laughter

You are every cry of pain



You are all the summer flowers

You are all the falling leaves

You are everyone rejoicing

You are everyone who greaves



You are all my unknown secrets

You are all my hidden fears

You are known in lover??s kisses

You are seen in childhood tears

You are where the stars are shining

You are where the rainbow ends

You are why the war is over

You are how the peace begins



Whisper the Wind



Whisper the wind over the water

Whisper the wind all through the night

Whisper the wind along the canyon

Whisper the wind into the night



Whisper the wind Brothers and sisters

Whisper the wind all the same

Whisper the wind love one another

Whisper the wind your precious name
