Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home.
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home.
I looked over Jordan,
And what did I see,
Coming for to carry me home,
A band of angels comin' after me,
Comin' for to carry me home.
Oh swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home.
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Comin' for to carry me home.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
El-Elyon na Adonia,
Age to age You're still the same,
By the power of the name.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
Erkamka na Adonai,
We will praise and lift You high,
El Shaddai.
Through your love and through the ram,
You saved the son of Abraham;
Through the power of your hand,
Turned the sea into dry land.
To the outcast on her knees,
You were the God who really sees,
And by Your might,
You set Your children free.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
El-Elyon na Adonia,
Age to age You're still the same,
By the power of the name.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
Erkamka na Adonai,
We will praise and lift You high,
El Shaddai.
Through the years You've made it clear,
That the time of Christ was near,
Though the people couldn't see
What Messiah ought to be.
Though Your Word contained the plan,
They just could not understand
Your most awesome work was done
Through the frailty of Your Son.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
El-Elyon na Adonai,
Age to age You're still the same,
By the power of the name.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
Erkamka na Adonai,
I will praise and lift You high,
El Shaddai.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
El-Elyon na Adonai,
Age to age You're still the same,
By the power of the name.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
Erkamka na Adonai,
I will praise and lift You high,
El Shaddai.

Erkamka ~ we will love you
Packing up the dreams God planted
In the fertile soil of you
Can't believe the hopes He's granted
Means a chapter in your life is through
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
With the faith and love God's given
Springing from the faith we know
We will pray the joy you live in
Is the strength that now you show
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
by Michael W. Smith & Deborah D. Smith (1982)
Love had played its games on me so long
I started to believe I'd never find anyone
Doubt had tried to convince me to give in,
said, "You can't win"
But one day the sun came a shining through
The rain had stopped and the skies were blue
And oh, what a revelation to see
Someone was saying "I love you" to me
A one in a million chance of a lifetime
And life showed compassion
And sent to me a stroke of love called "You"
A one in a million you
I was a lonely man with empty arms to fill
Then I found a piece of happiness to call my own
And life is worth living again
For to love you to me is to live
A one in a million chance of a lifetime
And life showed compassion
And sent to me a stroke of love called "You"
A one in a million you
A one in a million chance of a lifetime
And life showed compassion
And sent to me a stroke of love called "You"
One in a million you
A one in a million you
Good Night, Good Night
Until we meet again.
Adios, au Revoir,
auf Wiedersehen til then.
And though it's always sweet sorrow to part.
You know, you'll always remain in my heart.
Good Night, Sleep tight
And pleasant dreams to you.
Here's a wish, and a prayer
that all your dreams come true.
And so til we meet again....
Adios
Au Revoir
Auf Weidersehen

I give her all my love.
She gives me everything
A love like ours
Bright are the stars that shine.
Bright are the stars that shine.
There are places I remember
All these places had their moments
But of all these friends and lovers,
Though I know I'll never lose affection
Though I know I'll never lose affection
You say you will love me
Someday when I'm lonely,
You said you'll be mine, girl,
Someday when we're dreaming,
Me, I'm just the lucky kind,
Someday when we're dreaming,
Me, I'm just the lucky kind.
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away.
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be.
Why she had to go,
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Why she had to go,
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Look at the stars,
I came along
So then I took my turn
Your skin
I swam across
I drew a line
Your skin
It's true, look how they shine for you

That's all I do.
And if you saw my love,
You'd love her, too.
I love her.
And tenderly.
The kiss my lover brings,
She brings to me.
And I love her
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me.
Dark is the sky.
I know this love of mine
will never die.
And I love her.
Dark is the sky.
I know this love of mine
will never die.
And I love her.
All my life, though some have changed.
Some forever, not for better,
Some have gone and some remain.
With lovers and friends I still can recall.
Some are dead and some are living
In my life - I've loved them all.
There is no one compares with you,
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new.
For people and things that went before,
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life - I love you more.
For people and things that went before,
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life - I love you more.
If I have to go.
You'll be thinking of me.
Somehow, I will know.
Wishing you weren't so far away.
Then I will remember
Things we said today.
'Til the end of time.
These days such a kind girl
Seems so hard to find.
Deep in love, not a lot to say.
Then we will remember
Things we said today.
Love to hear you say that is love.
And though we may be blind,
Love is here to stay, and that's enough
To make you mine, girl.
Believe only one
Loves me all the time, girl.
We'll go on and on.
Deep in love, not a lot to say.
Then we will remember
Things we said today.
Love to hear you say that is love.
And though we may be blind,
Love is here to stay, and that's enough
To make you mine, girl.
Believe only one
Loves me all the time, girl.
We'll go on and on.
Now it looks as though they're here to stay.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.
I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong.
Now I long for yesterday.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong.
Now I long for yesterday.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah they were all yellow,
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called 'Yellow'
Oh all the things I've done
And it was all yellow
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know you know I love you so
You know I love you so
I jumped across for you
Oh what a thing to do
Cause you were all yellow
I drew a line for you
Oh all the things you do
And it was all yellow
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know for you I bleed myself dry
For you I bleed myself dry
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine
look at the stars,
look how they shine for you
