Abide With Me (Hymn)
Abide with me, fast falls the eventide
The darkness deepens, Lord with me abide
When other helpers fail and comforts flee
Help of the helpless, O abide with me
Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away
Change and decay in all around I see
O Thou who changest not, abide with me
I need Thy presence every passing hour
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me
I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me
Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies
Heaven's morning breaks and earth's vain shadows flee
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me
Amazing Grace (Traditional)
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.
T'was Grace that taught
My heart to fear
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares...
We have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
And Grace will lead us home.
When we've been here ten thousand years...
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
Then when we've first begun
Angels (Robbie Williams)
I sit and wait, does an angel contemplate my fate
And do they know, the places where we go
When we're grey and old
'Cos I've been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I'm lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel that love is dead
I'm loving angels instead
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call
He won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead
When I'm feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above, and I know I'll always be blessed with love
And as the feeling grows
He breathes flesh to my bones
And when love is dead
I'm loving angels instead

Because You Loved Me (Celine Dion)
For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up, Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through, through it all
(Chorus:)
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith ‘cause you believed
I'm everything I am Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall, I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much but I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
Chorus
You were always there for me, the tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark, shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration, through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
Chorus x 2
I'm everything I am, because you loved me
Bridge Over Troubled Water (Simon & Garfunkle)
When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all
(pause)
I'm on your side, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down
When you're down and out, when you're on the street
When evening falls so hard I will comfort you
I'll take your part, when darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl, Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine, oh if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind
Candle In The Wind (1997 England's Rose
Version - Elton John)
Goodbye our fair rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself Where lives were torn apart
You called out to our conscience
And you whispered to those in pain
Now you belong to heaven
And the stars spell out your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
In our memories living still
Your candle's burned out long before
Your legend ever will
Loveliness we've lost, these empty days without your smile
Wishing we could hold you, if only for a while
And even though we try, the truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express
The joy you brought us through the years
Chorus
Goodbye our fair rose, may you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself where lives were torn apart
Goodbye our fair rose, from a friend lost without your soul
Who'll miss the wings of your compassion
More than you'll ever know
Chorus
And your footsteps will always fall here in our memories living still
Your candle's burned out long before …. your legend ever will
Comes As You Are (Hymn - Communion)
Come as you are
Come and drink from the living water
That flowed his hands, flowed from his side
Come as you are
Come and bathe in the healing water
Cleansing from sin, releasing new life
Draw near to him and he’ll draw near to you
He’s been waiting for you to call on his name
So come, come as you are
Come as you are
Come and drink from the living water
That flowed his hands, flowed from his side
Come as you are
Come and bathe in the healing water
Cleansing from sin, releasing new life
Draw near to him and he’ll draw near to you
He’s been waiting for you to call on his name
So come, come as you are
And draw near to him and he’ll draw near to you
He’s been waiting for you to call on his name
So come, come as you are
Come as you are, come as you are
Danny Boy (Traditional)
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling
'tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so
And if you come, when all the flowers are dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me
And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me
And all my dreams will warmer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
Yes, I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
