Footprints in the sand, by Mary Stevenson
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was
walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the
sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he
noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one
belonging to him, and the other to the Lord. When
the last scene of his life flashed before him, he
looked back at the footprints in the sand. He
noticed that many times along the path of his life
there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed
that it happened at the very lowest and saddest
times in his life. This really bothered him and he
questioned the Lord about it. "Lord, You said that
once I decided to follow you, You'd walk with me all
the way. But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life, there is only one set
of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed
you most you would leave me." The Lord replied,
"My son, My precious child, I love you and I would
never leave you. During your times of trial and
suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it
was then that I Carried You."
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Uno, due, tre, quattro
When I was a boy just about the eight-a grade
Mama used to say, "Don't stay out-a late
With the bad-a boys, always shoot-a pool
Giuseppe going to flunk-a school"
/ E6 E E6 E / / B7 - - - / 1st /
Boy it make-a me sick, all the t'ing I gotta do
I can't-a-get-a no kicks, I always go to follow rules
Boy, it make-a me sick, just to make-a lousy bucks
Got to feelin' like a fool
And-a mama used to say all-a time
{Refrain}
What's-a matter you, hey, gotta no respect
What-a you t'ink you do, why you look-a so sad
It's-a not so bad, it's-a nice-a place
Ah, shaddap you face
That's-a my mama, I can remember
Soon-a come a day gonna be a big-a star
Den I make-a TV shows and-a movies, get-a myself a new car
But still I be myself, I don't want-a to change a t'ing
Still a-dance and a-sing
I t'ink about-a mama, she used to say
{Refrain twice}
