Lyrics to Reflections: Songs Through the Years

SKY FULL OF ANGELS

Preacher man talkin' about the end of time
Well, Lord knows I'm ready, it don't worry my mind
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

You can take my possessions
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul

Walk through darkness
I don't need no light
My faith in Jesus gonna be my guide
I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of of angels watching over me

You can take me for granted
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul

River's rising but I got no doubt
My sweet Savior's gonna pull me out
I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

You can take my possessions
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul

I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me
I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

ANOTHER SOLDIER’S COMING HOME 

His back is bent and weary 
His voice is tired and low 
His sword is worn from battle 
And his steps have gotten slow 
But he used to walk on water 
Or it seemed that way to me 
I know he moved some mountains 
And never left his knees 

Chorus 
Strike up the band 
Assemble the choir 
Another soldier's coming home 
Another warrior hears the call he's waited for so long 
He'll battle no more 
He's won his wars 
Make sure Heaven's table has room for at least one more 
Sing a welcome song 
Another soldier's coming home 

Verse 2 
He faced the winds of sorrow 
But his heart knew no retreat 
He walked in narrow places 
Knowing Christ knew no defeat 
But now his steps turn homeward 
So much closer to the prize 
He's sounding kind of homesick 
There's a longing in his eyes. 

Chorus 
Strike up the band 
Assemble the choir 
Another soldier's coming home 
Another warrior hears the call he's waited for so long 
He'll battle no more 
He's won his wars 
Make sure Heaven's table has room for at least one more 
Sing a welcome song 
Another soldier's coming home…

EL SHADDAI

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,
You 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 you 'till I die,
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 you 'till I die.
El Shaddai.

I GO TO THE ROCK

Where do I go when there's nobody else to turn to?
Who do I talk to when no one wants to listen?
Who do I lean on when there's no foundation stable?                                                                         

I go the Rock, I know He is able, I go to the Rock 

I go to the Rock of my salvation
I go to the stone that the builders rejected
I run to the mountain and the mountain stands by me

When the Earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to the Rock

Where do I hide
When the storms of life are threatening?
Whom do I run to when those winds of sorrow blow?
Is there a refuge in the time of tribulation?

When my soul needs consolation, I go the Rock

I go to the Rock of my salvation
I go to the stone that the builders rejected
I run to the mountain and the mountain stands by me

When the Earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to the Rock

I go to the Rock of my salvation
I go to the stone that the builders rejected
I run to the mountain and the mountain stands by me

When the Earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to the Rock…

When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to the Rock…

When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to the Rock…

PRAISE HIS NAME

When you're up against a wall
And your mountain seems so tall
And you realize life's not always fair
You can run away and hide
Or let the old man decide
Or you can change your circumstances with a prayer

When everything falls apart
Praise His Name
When you have a broken heart
Just raise your hands and say
Lord, you're all I need
You're everything to me
And He'll take the pain away

When it seems you're all alone
Praise His name
When you feel you can't go on
Just raise your hands and say
Greater is He that is within me
And you can praise the hurt away
If you'll just praise His name

Ohhh,
You can overcome
By the blood of the lamb
And by the word of your testimony
You'll see the darkness go
As your faith begins to grow
You're not alone, so how can you be lonely

When everything falls apart
Praise His name
When you have a broken heart
Just raise your hands and say
Lord, you're all I need
You're everything to me
And He'll take the pain away

When it seems you're all alone
Praise His name
When you feel you can't go on
Just raise your hands and say
Greater is He that is within me
And you can praise the hurt away
Greater is He that is within me
And you can praise the hurt away
If you'll just praise His Name

HE WILL CARRY YOU

There is no problem too big God cannot solve it
There is no mountain too tall He cannot move it
And there is no storm too dark God cannot calm it
There is no sorrow too deep He cannot soothe it

And if He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders
I know my brother that He will carry you
And if He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders
I know my sister that He will carry you
 

He said, "Come unto Me all who are weary and I will give you rest"

There is no problem too big God cannot solve it
There is no mountain too tall He cannot move it
And there is no storm too dark God cannot calm it
There is no sorrow too deep He cannot soothe it

And if He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders
I know my brother that He will carry you
And if He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders
I know my sister that He will carry you

I know my brother

And I know my sister

That Jesus… He’s gonna carry you…

SWING LOW SWEET CHARIOT

Chorus: 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,
Comin' for to carry me home,
A band of angels comin' after me,
Comin' for to carry me home.

Chorus

If you get there before I do,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Well, tell all my friends that I'm comin' too,
Comin' for to carry me home.

Chorus

I'm sometimes up and I'm sometimes down
Comin' for to carry me home,
But still my soul is heaven bound
Comin' for to carry me home

Chorus

HEAR MY HEART

Sometimes I feel no one's ever been in this place before
This is hard and I'm not sure that I can do this anymore
I know some day I"ll look back, and all this won't seem real
But Lord right now I need you to know just how I feel

Chorus: When there are no words to say and no prayer that I can pray
Hear my heart, when I don't have strength to try
And I've cried all I can cry hear my heart
‘Cause you know every fear and every doubt I cannot speak
You know all the ways I need you and all the ways I'm weak
So I'll be quiet so you can hear my heart.

Every now and then I recall a simple phrase or melody
It comforts and it quiets, lifts me up and then it carries me
Far above the pain and hurt I think will never end
The song speaks words I cannot and it calms the fears within

Chorus: When there are no words to say and no prayer that I can pray
Hear my heart, when I don't have strength to try
And I've cried all I can cry hear my heart
‘Cause you know every fear and every doubt I cannot speak
You know all the ways I need you and all the ways I'm weak
So I'll be quiet so you can hear my heart.
Lord, I'll be quiet, so you can hear my heart

SHE LOVED

Someone once asked
If only you knew
How short life would be
What would you do?
What would they say
When God called you home?
What would they engrave
Once you were gone?

I hope they would see
What I've done in my life
Who I've cared for
And how I survived
I hope they'd say

Chorus:
She loved more than anything else
She loved with all of her heart
She loved everyone she believed in
She loved... oh she loved

She loved the Lord
And served all her life
A sacrificial mother
And an honorable wife
She gave all she had
And through every trial
Made life much sweeter
Because of her smile

Everyone will see
What she's done in her life
Who she cared for
And how she survived
I'm sure they'd say

Chorus:
She loved more than anything else
She loved with all of her heart
She loved everyone she believed in
She loved...oh she loved


She loved...everyone she believed in
She loved… oh she loved
Oh... she loved           

ALMIGHTY I SURRENDER

You are crowned in majesty

You are clothed in glory

You are pure and Holy and God

Yet you gave your Son to be sacrificed on Calvary

This your greatest mystery that you could love me

 

Chorus: Almighty, God, Creator

Redeemer, Liberator Eternal Lord and Savior…God

My Father, my Defender

My broken-heart mender

Lord Jesus, I surrender all…

You are God, You are God

 

Rushing wind who calms the sea

Master of eternity

Worthy of all majesty and awe

With my life I bow before You

The One that I adore

Faithful friend and so much more

My Savior, my God

 

Chorus: Almighty, God, Creator

Redeemer, Liberator

Eternal Lord and Savior…God

My Father, my Defender

My broken-heart mender Lord Jesus, I surrender all…

You are God, You are God
