A prayer
Pray for your competitive to beat you
beg for him to win the race
Yearn for him to have the victory
and rest in your own embrace
Pray for your neighbors flowers
beg for them to grow
Yearn for his garden to blossom
and rest in the place of below
Pray like a priest that is crying
Beg for the beggars’ sake
Give away all your belongings
have nothing no one can take
Pray for everyone to beat you
In money, luck and love
And when your prayer is answered
Send thanks to the God above
Pray for the neighbor country
beg for them for be stronger and free
Let go of all the comparing
And shift from them to we
‘cause life is no competition
Not a struggle or game to win
Life is a joyful playground
where we all should be let in!
Pray for everyone to beat you
In money, luck and love
And when your prayer is answered
Send thanks to the God above
Earth Angel
I went uphill
I went downhill
went around and then below
I didn’t care for living
how soon could I let go?
I saw evil
I saw darkness
I saw murder and despair
the people went on living
like they didn’t even care
I was said to be sent an angel
that would help me follow thorough
I didn’t see that angel
‘cause all I saw was you
I saw black sheep
on a white field
saw the clouds and not the stars
I didn’t know real freedom
‘cause all I saw was bars
Started begging
started praying
started hoping for a friend
that could help me see the sun rise
and start living life again
I was said to be sent an angel
that would help me follow thorough
I didn’t see that angel
‘cause all I saw was you
I got drunk and I got sober
I got visions of the good
I saw myself in living
like I always knew I could
I am!
I am the allower
I am the denier
I am the only one
who can please my desire
I am the mother
I am the father
There’s no one else to be
so I rather..
Sing it out loud
feeling so proud
that I am
I am
All that I am
I am the sunrise and
I am the rain
I create my own sorrow
And attract my own pain
I am at ease
I am a summer breeze
I stay in the sun
because life
has just
begun
So I sing it out loud
feeling so proud
that I am
I am
All that I am
The kiss of an angel
Av Vivian Midttveit
Your smile is like the kiss of an angel
Your tears like the falling of a star
Your anger as magical as lightning
Your insecurity upon love recall
Your longing is the birth of creation
Your struggle makes it worth a while
Your fear has a place in Gods triangle
Your smile is like the kiss of an angel
Your hand is a healing blessing
To the one you choose to touch
Your smile is like the kiss of an angel
And I miss it, I miss it oh so much!
Companions
are you really out there
Waiting for me to play?
Let’s kiss like a bunch of angels
So God knows we have heard his pray!
Your love is a life-giving power
Your ache like water against a rock
Your need as good as your giving
And your wish, upon Gods door a gently knock
Your joy to the world a contribute
Your laughter like a dance in the rain
Your weakness as soft as cotton
Your missing smile, in Gods heart; true pain
Companions
are you really out there
Waiting for me to play?
Let’s kiss like a bunch of angels
So God knows we have heard his pray!
A new world
Av Vivian Midttveit
There is a new world taking place today
We’ve got our hands on each others shoulders
No one is better, no one is worse
No one is even bolder
There is a new world taking place today
And love is the state who rules her
Hope is the wind who strikes her hair
And joy is the friend so dear
Without fear I dare
To look into your eyes
We are all the same
The fear is in vane
We’re in for a big surprise!
There is a new world taking place today
We have reunited our voices
The songs we sing will make the spring
bloom to serve our choices
There is a new world taking place today
And the children are our teachers
If we listen well, we break the spell
And are out of need for preaches
Without fear I dare
To look into your eyes
We're all the same
The fear is in vane
We’re in for a big surprise!
The Fight
Av Vivian Midttveit
So, they are back again
those dark knights
who rides my mind
whispering the sweet words:
you’ll never make it
you’ll never be fine
So they are back again
But guess what?
I’ve built a castle
And won’t listen to that!
So, they are back again
those dark knights
who rides my wagon of doubts
laying out illusionary obstacles
making me feel way out.
So they are back again
But guess what?
I’ve raised my weapons
And won’t be stopped by that!
So, they are back again
those dark knights
who rides my mind
preventing me from see
pretending I am blind
So they are back again
But guess what?
My eyes are wiser now
And they see that…
… the dark knights
are playing to win a game
And their victory is this:
making me feel insane
They deal the red ones
and hold the blacks
but never again
will I be scared
of their attacks
Because dark knights can be trumped by the cards of heart
and once the cards are dealth
I am playing smart
I choose the keepers and know which ones to let go
and those dark knights
will never know I know
So when they’re back again
those dark knights
who tries to ride my mind
a hand of strong hearted winners is what they're going to find!
The light worth the fight
Av Vivian Midttveit
Now I am here honey
All out of fear honey
My head and heart is all here.
Now I am still
Listening to your will
Present and near, I am here.
Can you forgive me for rambling round
don’t know what I seek
don’t know what I seek
but know what I have found:
you are the light
shining so bright
you are the light, worth the fight.
Now I am back honey
Not wearing black honey
No longer gone, I am back
Now I see gold
I’ve never been told
that every heart is of gold.
Can you forgive me for rambling round
don’t know what I seek
don’t know what I seek
but know what I have found:
you are the source
an armour on the horse
you are the source, yes of course!
Thought I could show you
the way through life
that I could teach you
knowing wrong from right
but I was wrong
you’re the one that’s strong
old patterns are gone
we stand strong.
I rambled round
Lost my solid ground
I rambled round, now I’ve found:
That you’re the light honey
shining so bright honey
you are the light, worth the fight.
Can you forgive me for rambling round
don’t know what I seek
but know what I have found:
you are the light
shining so bright
you are the light, worth the fight.
Blå kaffekopp
Av Vivian Midttveit
Av Vivian Midttveit
Blå kaffekopp
på bord med kvite duk
ut av radio ei værmelding om storm
Vinden bles ein enkel symfoni
ganske varsamt
som han kviskrar:
her er ingenting forbi
Hand i hand og kinn mot kinn,
ho og han
ho og han
på kaminen i ei ramme
lagd av sand
lagd av sand
Dagen ruslar jamnt mot kveld
og i si hand ho held
ein kaffekopp
ein kaffekopp
denne blåe
Dei sku vore to
her i livet no
elska saman, funne formen
lytta lydlaust til stormen
Blå kaffekopp
på bord med kvite duk
ut av radio ein kjende melodi
Varme tonar stryke over mjuke kinn
ganske varsamt
og ein måne lengtar ute:
eg vil inn
Men ord i sand
kan`kje vara evig
kan`kje vara evig
vinden viskar alle tinga bort
Dei sku vore to
her i livet no
berre minnast denne gongen
Vinden avsluttar songen
Og eit bleikt måneskinn
smyg seg lydlaust inn i stova
sende varmen han lova
ho
