2.	Die Gedanken Sind Frei/Thoughts Are Free 01:37	lyrics	buy track
Die gedanken sind frei My thoughts freely flower Die gedanken sind frei My thoughts give me power No scholar can map them No hunter can trap them No man can deny Die gedanken sind frei I think as I please And this gives me pleasure My conscience decrees This right I must treasure My thoughts will not cater To duke or dictator No man can deny Die gedanken sind frei No man can deny Die gedanken sind frei And should tyrants take me And throw me in prison My thoughts will burst free Like blossoms in season Foundations will crumble And structures will tumble And free folk will cry Die gedanken sind frei And free folk will cry Die gedanken sind frei
3.	Lead, Kindly Light 03:37	lyrics	buy track
Lead, kindly light, in this encircling gloom Lead thou me on The night is dark, and I am far from home Lead thou me on Keep thou my feet, I do not ask to see The distant scene, one step enough for me. So long thy love has blessed me, sure it will Will lead me on Through stormy wind, through crag and torrent, till The night is gone And with the morn, those angel faces smile That I have loved long since, and lost a while. Lead, kindly light, in this encircling gloom Lead thou me on The night is dark, and I am far from home Lead thou me on Keep thou my feet, I do not ask to see The distant scene, one step enough for me. Lead, kindly light, in this encircling gloom Lead thou me on The night is dark, and I am far from home Lead, kindly light, lead thou me on.

Lauren Oxford
by Lauren Oxford

I could listen to Lauren sing forever. Her writing is vivid and sensitive, sweetly and painfully human--never apologizing for sharp corners and rough edges. The beauty of her spirit shines through. Summer Russell
