Walk With Me
(Cancer Survivor's Song)
Words/Music by MaryRose Varo  - Vocals/Guitar MaryRose Varo  -  Hammered Dulcimer: Rory Butkiewicz


Walk with me
Tenderly
Love light our way
And celebrate the gift of this day

Silently
Offering
Praises and tears
We circle now
As Love draws us near

Each one here for the other one
With a story of life
Sharing hope sharing confidence
This moment in time

While gathering
Quietly
Family and friends
Whose faithfulness and love never end

Honoring
Strengthening
Patience and time
Their gift to us through struggle and trial

Through our pain and our suffering
We have paid a great price
But the gain in the offering
Is newness of life

So
Walk with me
Tenderly
Love light our way
And celebrate the gift of this day!

Walk On!
(Cancer Caregiver Song)
Words/Music by MaryRose Varo  - Vocals/Guitar MaryRose Varo  -  Percussion: Rory Butkiewicz 


Walk on!
Walk on!
As you walked with me then so walk on!
From beginning to end you were with me my friend
So walk on - walk on
Through the darkest nights
Through the ups and the downs of this fight
You were there with your heart
Coming just as you are
So walk on
Walk on

I know you felt every step that I'd take
You helped see me through to finding my way

And I owe you more than a life can repay
Know that I understand all that you gave          (Chorus)


I want you to see I am free - I have won!
You gave your best to me - making me strong!

And I hope to see when this journey is done
Someone's been there for me - leading me Home!      (Chorus)




And we will face the days ahead believing
We will make the most of what we've found
With the faith and hope that we've been given
Knowing Love Is holding, holding us    

We'll walk on - walk on
As you walked with me then we'll walk on
And we'll celebrate now - your commitment and love
Then walk on - walk on
Through the darkest nights
Through the ups and the downs of this fight
You were there with your heart
Coming just as you are
So walk on
Walk on  
Light up the World

There is a candle
Within my heart
That's burning brightly in the dark
And I light this flame Ooo  I light this flame
In the name of love

It keeps me warm
Through darkest times
And like a beacon in the night
It lights my way ooo it lights my way
In the name of love


So I can Light up the world
Light up the world
My heart's inspired to bear this fire
And light - light up the world - light up the world


Come Spirit blow &
Fan the flame
Make it burn brighter every day &
Light our way  Ooo - light our way
In the name of love


So we can Light up the world
Light up the world
Our hearts desire to bear this fire
And light - Light up the world - Light up the world



For this Hope we know
Is not from some decision
Yet it grows and grows with our every need
And it clearly shows there's much more to believe in
Something more unknown
That can be seen

When we

Light up the world (12X)
In the name of love
