2 3 Go Down, Moses If I Were Free Em B7 Em C7 Em B7 Em B7 D Em A D D7 When Israel was in Egypt’s land, let my people go! If I were free to speak my mind, Em B7 Em C7 Em B7 Em G Em A A7 Opress’d so hard they could not stand, let my people go! I’d tell a tale to all mankind. D D7 G Gm Chorus: Of how the flowers do bloom and fade, Em Am B7 Em D A D Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt land Of how we fought and how we gained. C Em B7 Em This weary world has had its fill Tell old Pharaoh, let my people go! Of words of war on ev’ry hill. The time has come for peaceful days, Thus saith the Lord, bold Moses said, let my people go. For peaceful men and peaceful ways. If not I’ll smite your first born—dead, let my people go. When all mankind has ceased to fight No more shall they in bondage toil, let my people go, I’ll raise my head in thanks each night. Let them come out with Egypt’s spoil, let my people go, For this great love and all it means, For golden days and peaceful dreams. The Lord told Moses what to do, let my people go, To lead the Hebrew children through, let my people go. If I were free to speak my mind, I’d tell a tale to all mankind. O come along Moses, you’ll not get lost, let my people go, Of how the flowers do bloom and fade, Stretch out your rod and come across, let my people go. Of how we fought and how we gained.

As Israel stood by the waterside, let my people go, At God’s command it did divide, let my people go, The Rainbow Song D Bm G D When they reached the other shore, let my people go, Father, make me a rainbow, to bridge old and new; They sang a song of triumph o’er, let my people go, Bm G A7 Father, make me a gateway for many to come through. Pharaoh said he’d go across, let my people go, D D7 G F#m But Pharaoh and his host were lost, let my people go. Father, You are the sunlight in a very dark land; D Bm7 G A D O take your shoes from off your feet, let my people go. Make me a prism held in your hand. And walk into the golden street, let my people go. Father, You are the music, make me a lyre. I am the kindling, Father, make me a fire. Our voices blend now, into one loving song; The dream grows true now, beautiful—strong.

4 5 Bye and Bye Sailing With Our Father Chorus: By David Rendel D G D G D Bye and bye, when the morning comes, If the trip you’re traveling gets long, D E7 A7 Am G All the saints of God are gathered home. Wishing for a new day to come; D D7 G D D Am We’ll tell the story how we’ve overcome, When the sun rises in the morning A7 D C G And we’ll understand it better bye and bye. We’ll set sail and move on. D We are tossed and driven Chorus: G D D Am On the restless seas of time; Sailing with our Father D C G Somber skies and howling tempest You know His ship will never sway; E7 A7 D Am C Oft succeed a bright sunshine. New Hope on the horizon D Em In that land of perfect day, We’ve found the Promised Land today. G D When the mists have rolled away, Look out with joy in your eyes, A7 D The winds of truth will guide our way; We will understand it better bye and bye. Leaving behind the raging sea, We are often destitute On waves of Love we’ll sail away. Of the things that life demands; Want of shelter and of food, Darkness it always turns to light, Thirsty hills and barren lands. The Promised Land is in sight; We are trusting in the Lord He’s our guiding star by night And according to His word, And in the day our bright sunlight. We will understand it better bye and bye. Trials dark on every hand, And we cannot understand All the ways that God would lead us To that blessed promised land. But He guides us with His eye And we’ll follow Him on high; And we’ll understand it better bye and bye.

D C Bm Am D G C G Walk through the valleys and the rivers and the plains; You fill up my senses — come fill me again. F G Walk though the sun and walk through the rain. Come let me love you; let me give my life to you. Let me drown in your laughter let me live in your heart, Chorus: Let me walk right beside you, let me always be with you.

C Em The Belvedere Song But her power shall rest on the strength of her freedom. Words by Ella Higginson, from a poem entitled “Four-Leaf Clover.” F G C Her glory shall rest on us all, on us all. E A E I know a place where the sun shines like gold, From Colorado, Kansas, and the Carolinas too; F#m7 B7 Virginia and Alaska from the old to the new; Where the cherries bloom forth in the snow, Texas and Ohio and the California shore, E E7 A G#m7 Tell me, who could ask for more? And down underneath is the loveliest place, F#m B7 E But she’s only as rich as the poorest of the poor, Where the four leaf clovers grow. Only as free as a padlocked prison door, Only as strong as our love for this land, One leaf is for faith, and one is for hope, Only as tall as we stand. And one is for love you know, And God put another one in for you, If you search you find where they grow.

But you must have faith and you must have hope, You must love and be strong and so, If you work, if you wait, you will find the place

All my life I’ve been searching to find D7 G C Em D C D G Em C D The sons of earth are turning to the one and only light. A peaceful way of life for all mankind. G C Am Em G Em C D Out of the East it’s coming, burning, beaming bright. But all I found was hatred and strife. C D G C D G G7 And all of the children come running; If I could find that truth, I’d give my life. D Em C G Lord, what a wonderful sight! my heart I want to know C Bm Am D Chorus: If there is a way for me to show D G D G D The day of hope. The day of True Family. My love for people now. C D G Day of joy; Day of delight! When this old world starts getting you down, (Repeat) And the sorrow is just too much for you to take, Just climb right up to the top of the hill While mankind had been dreaming And learn of this ideal world that we will make. The truth shone bright and clear. In this house, the only house I know, Though we were unsure he was living, Where we all have a chance to change and grow The Lord was very near. To perfection now. Into the world he’s coming, to wipe away our tears, And when in our hearts hope is living, So if we all follow Father’s heart, What shall we do with our fears? Together we can make a brand new start. We’ll build a Heavenly Kingdom for all Chorus Where men are walking free and standing tall, Father’s ideal world is coming true— But He can’t do a thing without you! (So join our family!) And now that you have heard our song, Our hope and dream is that you’ll come along. Up on the hill, we’ll build an ideal world, up on the hill.

And the word is “liberty,” oh, Lord; And the word is “liberty.” On his lips a word is singing, And the word is “liberty.”

50 51 I’ll Never Leave You I Want to Give You This World Words by Hillie Edwards; melody of an old English folksong By Hillie Edwards G C G C G7 C Am I’ll never leave you anymore, I want to give you a thousand things; Em D F G C C7 For I have found in your bright eyes I want to give you this world. G C G C F C G7 Am A river of love, a heart of gold, Full of children’s laughing voices; G D G F G C C7 A peaceful mind, a hand to hold. I want to give you this world. F Em G7 Am F G G7 And what’ll I do with this precious gift? Peel away the muddy darkness of our hate and fear. Shall I embrace it to myself? C G C Am Oh, no I can’t, I would lose it sure; And we’ll find a world of light. It must be given if it’s to endure. F G C I want to give you this world. And how will I use this treasure store? How will I share this wordless joy? Once we could laugh and bare foot run; I’ll greet all men with a loving heart; Where did the happy days go? I’ll speak the truth with a clear voice. Where are sun and dew sweet grasses? Where did the happy days go? And together we’ll build a world that’s new. They are shackled in the prison of our self-born pride. That’s fit for kings and fit for queens; Smash the bars and free the world; We’ll raise them up to rule the land, That’s where the happy days lie. And place dominion in your hand. Once by the sea we could sit and sing. I’ll never leave you anymore, Where has the happy world gone? For I have found in your bright eyes Where are sun and dew sweet grasses? A river of love, a heart of gold, Where did the happy days go? A peaceful mind, a hand to hold. But we can’t accept this blind world, Filled with loss and pain; So we’ll all roll up our sleeves; We’ll make it flower again.

68 69 This Land Is Your Land You Are My Sunshine Lyrics by Woody Guthrie As popularized by Jimmie Davis Chorus: Chorus: G C G D This land is your land, this land is my land You are my sunshine, my only sunshine D7 G G A D D7 From California to the New York Island You make me happy when skies are gray C G Em G A D Bm From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters You’ll never know, Lord, how much I love you D D7 G D A D This land was made for you and me. Please don’t take my sunshine away.

As I went walking down that ribbon of highway There is a meadow, high on a mountain I saw above me that endless skyway; Where skylark and wild rose abound I saw below me that golden valley; The eternal homeland my heart’s desire This land was made for you and me. Shines like gold at the rainbow’s end.

I roamed and rambled, and followed my footsteps Through the long winter, the harsh winds blowing To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts All creatures die on barren soil While all around me a voice was saying: Now sunlight warming, the ice to streamlets This land was made for you and me. Earth in spring is a garden of joy!

As the sun was shining and I was strolling And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling As the fog was lifting a voice was chanting: This land was made for you and me. Edelweiss By Rodgers and Hammerstein; from The Sound of Music G D G C G Em Am7 D7 Edelweiss, Edelweiss, every morning you greet me. G D G C G D7 G Small and white, clean and bright, you look happy to meet me D D7 Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow, C A7 D7 Bloom and grow forever. G D G C G D7 G Edelweiss, Edelweiss, bless my homeland forever!

72 73 I Saw the Light The Battle Hymn of the Republic Written by Hank Williams Sr. A G Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord. I wandered so aimless, life filed with sin D A C G He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored. F#m I wouldn’t let my dear saviour in He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword. D E7 A Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night His truth is marching on. D G Praise the Lord I saw the light. Chorus: A D A Chorus: Glory, glory, Hallelujah! Glory, glory, Hallelujah! G F#m D E7 A I saw the light I saw the light Glory, glory, Hallelujah! His truth is marching on. C G I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps. No more darkness no more night They have built Him an altar in the evening dews and damps. I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps: Now I’m so happy no sorrow in sight His day is marching on. G D G Praise the Lord I saw the light. He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat; He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgement seat. Just like a blind man I wandered along O be swift my soul, to answer Him, be jubilant my feet! Worries and fears I claimed for my own Our God is marching on. Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight Praise the Lord I saw the light. In the beauty of the lilies, Christ was born across the sea. With a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me. As He lives to make men holy, let us live to make men free! Chorus While God is marching on.

I was a fool to wander and stray He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave; Straight is the gate and narrow the way He is wisdom to the mighty, He is honor to the brave. Now I have traded the wrong for the right So the world shall be His footstool and the soul of wrong His slave. Praise the Lord I saw the light. Our God is marching on.
