1. BE THOU MY VISION, trans Mary Byrne 4. AMAZING GRACE, John Newton Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart; Amazing grace how sweet the sound Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art; that saved a wretch like me Thou my best thought, by day or by night, I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see. Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears relieved, Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise, How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed. Thou mine Inheritance, now and always: Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tow’r: The Lord has promised good to me,His word my hope secures, Raise thou me heav’nward,Pow’r of my pow’r. He will my shield and portion be as long as life endures. Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word; Thru many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come, I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord; 'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home. Thou and thou only, first in my heart great God of heaven, my treasure thou art When we've been there ten thousand years, bright shining as the sun, Great God of Heaven, my victory won, We've no less days to sing God's praise May I reach Heav’n’s joys, O bright Heav’n’s Sun! than when we'd first begun. Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all. 5. O FOR A THOUSAND TONGUES, C. Wesley O for a thousand tongues to sing 2.

HALLELUJAH, Leonard Cohen 9. GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN I heard there was a secret chord Go tell it on the mountain, That David played and it pleased the Lord over the hills and everywhere But you don't really care for music, do you? Go tell it on the mountain, to let My people go. Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth Who's that yonder dressed in red, let my people go The minor fall and the major lift Must be the children that Moses led, let my people go The baffled king composing hallelujah Who's that yonder dressed in red, Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Hallelujah Must be the children that Moses led Your faith was strong but you needed proof Go tell it on the mountain, to let My people go. You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you Who's that yonder dressed in white, let my people go She tied you to a kitchen chair Must be the children of the Israelites, let my people go She broke your throne, and she cut your hair Who’s that yonder dressed in white, And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah must be the children of the Israelites Go tell it on the mountain, to let My people go. There was a time when you let me know What's really going on below Who's that yonder dressed in gold, let my people go But now you never show it to me, do you? Must be God’s children, young and old, let my people go And remember when I moved in you Who's that yonder dressed in gold, The holy dove was moving too must be God’s children, young and old And every breath we drew was Hallelujah Go tell it on the mountain, to let My people go. Maybe there’s a God above 10.

COME THOU FOUNT, Robinson & Wyeth And even though it all went wrong Come, thou Fount of every blessing, I'll stand before the Lord of Song tune my heart to sing thy grace With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah streams of mercy, never ceasing call for songs of loudest praise 8. SOMOS EL BARCO – Lorre Wyatt Teach me some melodious sonnet Somos el barco, somos el mar, sung by flaming tongues above. Yo navego en ti, tu navegas en mi Praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it We are the boat, we are the sea, mount of thy unchanging love. sail in you, you sail in me Here I raise mine Ebenezer; hither by thy help I'm come; and I hope, by thy good pleasure The stream sings it to the river, safely to arrive at home. the river sings it to the sea Jesus sought me when a stranger, D The sea sings it to the boat that carries you and me wandering from the fold of God; he, to rescue me from danger, The boat we are sailing in was built by many hands interposed his precious blood. And the sea we are sailing on, it touches every land O to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be Let thy goodness, like a fetter, So with our hopes we set the sails bind my wandering heart to thee. and face the winds once more Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, And with our hearts we chart the waters prone to leave the God I love; here's my heart, O take and seal it, D never sailed before seal it for thy courts above. 12. ALL CREATURES, St. Francis of Assisi 14. BIG YELLOW TAXI, Joni Mitchell All creatures of our God and King They paved paradise and put up a parking lot, with a lift up your voice and with us sing pink hotel, a boutique, and a swinging hot spot O praise Him, Alleluia! Thou burning sun with golden beam Don't it always seem to go thou silver moon with softer gleam That you don't know what you've got til its gone O praise Him, O praise Him They paved paradise and put up a parking lot Alleluia! Alleluia! Allelu - ia! Thou rushing wind that art so strong They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum ye clouds that sail in Heav’n along And they charged the people O praise Him, Alleluia! a dollar and a half to see 'em Thou rising moon, in praise rejoice ye lights of evening find a voice Hey farmer, farmer, put away the DDT give me spots on my apples, Let all things their Creator bless Leave me the birds and the bees, please! and worship Him in humbleness O praise Him, Alleluia! Listenin' late last night, I heard the screen door slam Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son And a big yellow taxi look my old man away and praise the Spirit,three in one O praise Him, O praise Him 15.
