We are one
When I see all the colors of nature
I perceive all the treasures to treasure
Just like the leaves that sway in glee
Joy comes to be to those who live as one When I hear all the music around me
As the breeze of the heavens surround me
Just like the bees that bring the honey We’ll be free if only we are one
*Forget the “I”
We are bound together, never come undone
If we just try
We can stay forever ever warm and calm
Let there be “us”
We belong and coexist together
No matter where we’re coming from
Like sister moon and brother sun
We’ll stop the gloom as long as we are one When I feel my heart beating inside me
I am still for I know it will guide me
Just like the humming of the drums
A new world starts when hearts can beat as one
(Repeat Chorus*)
See you in me, me in you
Then we can build life anew
When I smell all the scents of the flowers
I can tell they’re not mine they are ours
Just like the trees that touch the sun
We’ll live in peace as long as we are one
Just like the wind so soft and calm, we’ll be at ease If only we are one
Like sister moon and brother sun
We’ll find true peace as long as we are one
We are one
Silently I Recite the Amitabha’s Name
When in distress, pray to Amitabha
enjoy will fill your heart.
Namo Amitabha. He of infinite Light.
When alone and helpless,
recite the Amitabha’s name
and peace will come into your mind.
Namo Kuan Shi Yin Pu Sa,
may my faith be pure
may my wisdom be full,
may my compassion gladly flow from yours.
Namo Kuan Shi Yin Pu Sa,
may my faith be pure
may my wisdom be full,
may my compassion flow from yours.
Every recitation of the Buddha’s name,
makes me feel happy and good.
Every recitation of the Boddhisattva’s name,
lends me peace of mind.
Namo Amitabha Buddha,
Namo Kuan Shi Yin Pu Sa,
Thou of boundless light.
Namo Kuan Shi Yin Pu Sa,
may my faith be pure
may my wisdom be full,
may my compassion gladly flow from yours.
Namo Kuan Shi Yin Pu Sa,
may my faith be pure
may my wisdom be full,
my compassion flow from yours.
May my wisdom be full,
my compassion flow from yours.

Harmonize
The time has come to realize
Without world peace we can’t survive
Our past is one that’s filled with war
Compassion is what we are looking for
It fills me up with so much hope
To realize how beautiful
This world could be without anger
Which drives us all against each other
Let’s promise to us, our hearts and souls
With wisdom we can gain control
That’s why we sing this song to you
Just don’t lost faith we’re here for you
So hold on and harmonize all that is wrong
And work for a peace which is strong
And gain some respect for this earth
For all of mankind we will serve
Harmonize all that is wrong would for re-peace which is strong
It gains some respect for this earth for all the mankind we will serve
