On Eagle’s Wings  (Hymn)

You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord
Who abide in His shadow for life
Say to the Lord, "My Refuge, My Rock in Whom I trust."
 
(Chorus:)
And He will raise you up on eagle's wings
Bear you on the breath of dawn
Make you to shine like the sun
And hold you in the palm of His Hand
 
The snare of the fowler will never capture you
And famine will bring you no fear
Under His Wings your refuge
His faithfulness your shield
 
Chorus
 
You need not fear the terror of the night
Nor the arrow that flies by day
Though thousands fall about you
Near you it shall not come
 
Chorus

For to His angels He's given a command
To guard you in all of your ways
Upon their hands they will bear you up
Lest you dash your foot against a stone

Chorus

One Sweet Day  (Mariah Carey / Boyz 2 Men)

Sorry, I never told you, all I wanted to say
Now it's too late to hold you
Cause you've flown away, so far away
Never, had I imagined, yeah, living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive, alive

(Chorus:)
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day

Darling, I never showed you
Assumed you'd always be there
I took your presence for granted
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared

Chorus

Although, the sun will never shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day
Yeah, Lord, I know, when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen, as I pray

Chorus x 2
Sorry, I never told you, all I wanted to say

Over The Rainbow  (Eva Cassidy / Judy Garland)

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

If happy little blue birds fly beyond the rainbow
Why oh why can't I?

People Get Ready  (Eva Cassidy)

People get ready, there's a train a-coming
You don't need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear diesels a-humming
You don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
 
People get ready for the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers from coast to coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board them
There's room for all, among the loved and lost

Now there ain't no room for the hopeless sinner
Who’s hard on mankind just to save his own
Have pity on those whose chances are thinner
Cause there's no hiding place from the Kingdom's Throne
 
            People get ready for the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers from coast to coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board them
There's room for all, among the loved and lost.
 
            I'm getting ready
            I'm ready yeah, yeah, yeah
            Oh, I'm getting ready oh - oh
            I'm ready yeah

Song Bird  (Eva Cassidy)

For you there’ll be no crying
For you the sun will be shining
‘Cause I feel that when I’m with you
It’s alright, I know it’s right
 
And the songbirds keep singing
Like they know the score
And I love you, I love you, I love you
Like never before
 
To you, I would give the world
To you, I’d never be cold
‘Cause I feel that when I’m with you
It’s alright, I know it’s right
 
And the songbirds keep singing
Like they know the score
And I love you, I love you, I love you
Like never before
Like never before, like never before

Tears In Heaven  (Eric Clapton)

Would you know my name, if I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same, if I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong, here in heaven

Would you hold my hand, if I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand, if I saw you in heaven?

I'll find my way, through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay, here in heaven

Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please, begging please

Beyond the door, there's peace I'm sure
And I know there'll be no more, tears in heaven

Would you know my name, if I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same, if I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong, here in heaven

The Lords My Shepherd  (Hymn -  Crimond Version)

The Lord’s my Shepherd I’ll not want
He makes me down to lie
In pastures green, he leadeth me
The quiet waters by
 
My soul He doth restore again
And me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness
Even for His own Name’s sake
 
Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale
Yet will I fear no ill
For Thou art with me and Thy rod
And staff my comfort still
 
My table Thou hast furnished
In presence of my foes
My head Thou dost with oil anoint
And my cup overflows
 
Goodness and mercy all my life
Shall surely follow me
And in God’s house forevermore
My dwelling place shall be

The Lord Is My Shepherd  (Boniwell Version)

The Lord is my shepherd, and I want to follow
Wherever he leads me, wherever he goes
 
Over the mountains, the waters and by-ways
Valleys and highways, he's waiting for me
 
I want to go to meet him there
To lay myself down in his love
The lord is my shepherd and I want to follow
Wherever he leads me wherever he goes
 
Instrumental
 
I want to go to meet him there
To lay myself down in his love
The lord is my shepherd and I want to follow
Wherever he leads me wherever he goes
 
And while on the journey to where we are going
He promised to be there to help us along
And over the mountains we'll walk on together
To know all the wonders he's given to me

The Prayer  (Andre Bocelli & Celine Dion)

I pray you'll be our eyes and watch us where we go
And help us to be wise, in times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer, when we lose our way
 Lead us to a place, guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe
 
I pray we'll find your light, and hold it in our hearts
When stars go out each night, remind us where you are
Let this be our prayer, when shadows fill our day
 Lead us to a place, guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
  
A world where pain and sorrow will be ended
And every heart that’s broken will be mended
And we’ll remember we are all God’s children
Reaching out to touch you, reaching to the sky
 
We ask that life be kind, and watch us from above
We hope each soul will find, another soul to love
 Let this be our prayer, just like every child

Needs to find a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
 
Needs to find a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe

The Rose  (Bette Midler)

Some say love it is a river
That drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is razor
That leaves your soul the bleed
Some say love it is a hunger
And endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
And you its only seed
 
It’s the heart afraid breaking
That never learns to dance
It’s dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It’s the one who won’t be taken
Who never learns to give
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns live
 
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the winter snow
Lies the seed that with the sun’s love
In the spring becomes the Rose

The Way We Were  (Barbara Streisand)

Memories
Like the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were

Scattered pictures
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were

Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? could we?

Memories, may be beautiful and yet
What’s too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget

So it’s the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember...
The way we were...
The way we were...
 
Mmmmmmm

The Wind Beneath My Wings  (Bette Midler)

It must have been cold there in my shadow
to never have sunlight on your face
You were content to let me shine, that's your way
You always walked a step behind
 
So I was the one with all the glory
While you were the one with all the strength
A beautiful face without a name -- for so long
A beautiful smile to hide the pain
 
Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings
 
It might have appeared to go unnoticed
but I've got it all here in my heart
I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it
I would be nothing with out you
 
Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings

Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings
 You are the wind … beneath my wings

True Colours  (Cyndi Lauper / Phil Collins)

You with the sad eyes, don't be discouraged
Though I realise, it's hard to take courage
In a world full of people you can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you makes you feel so small

But I see your true colours shining through
I see your true colours and that’s why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colours, true colours are beautiful … like a rainbow

Show me you smile then, don't be unhappy
Can't remember when I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy and you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up because you know I'll be there

But I see your true colours shining through
I see your true colours and that’s why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colours, true colours are beautiful … like a rainbow

Such sad eyes …..take courage now ….realise
When this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up because you know I'll be there

But I see your true colours shining through
I see your true colours and that’s why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colours, true colours, true colours are shining through
I see your true colours and that’s why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colours, true colours, true colours are beautiful
…. like a rainbow

Unchained Melody  (Righteous Brothers)

Oh my love, my darling
I’ve hungered for your touch
These long, lonely nights
And time goes by, so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
 I need your love, oh I need your love
God speed your love to me
 
Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me
I’ll be coming home, so wait for me
 
Oh my love, my darling
I’ve hungered for your touch
These long lonely nights
And time goes by, so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
 
I need your love
Oh I need your love
God speed your love to me

Unforgettable  (Nat King Cole / Natalie Cole)

Unforgettable, that’s what you are
Unforgettable, though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Like never before
Has someone been more
 
Unforgettable, in every way
Unforgettable, that’s how you’ll stay
That’s why darling
It’s incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
 
Unforgettable, in every way
Unforgettable, that’s how you’ll stay
That’s why darling
It’s incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too 

We'll Meet Again  (Very Lynn)

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when
But I'll know we'll meet again some sunny day
Keep smiling through, just like you always do
Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away
 
So will you please say "hello" to the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go
I was singing this song
 
We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when
But I'll know we'll meet again some sunny day

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when
But I'll know we'll meet again some sunny day
Keep smiling through, just like you always do
Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away
 
So will you please say "hello" to the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go
I was singing this song
 
We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when
But I'll know we'll meet again some sunny day

What A Wonderful World  (Louis Armstrong / Eva Cassidy)

I've seen trees of green, red roses too
I've seen them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
 
I see skies of blue, clouds of white
Bright blessed days, dark sacred nights
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
 
The colours of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you
 
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know,
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world 

You Raise Me Up  (Josh Groban / Westlife)

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up...to more than I can be

8 bar instrumental

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up...to more than I can be

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up...to more than I can be

You raise me up…to more than I can be

Your Song  (Elton John)

It’s a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I’m not one of those who can easily hide
I don’t have much money, but then if I did
I’d buy a big house where we both could live
 
If I was a sculptor, but then again no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it’s not much but it’s the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one’s for you
 
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
That I put it down in words
How wonderful life is while you’re in my world
 
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well there’s a few other verses, that have got me quite cross
Anyway the sun’s been quite kind while I wrote this song
It’s for people like you, who keep it turned on
 
So forgive me for forgetting these things that I do
You see I’ve forgotten if they’re green or they’re blue
Anyway, the thing is...well…what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I have ever seen
 
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
That I put it down in words
How wonderful life is while you’re in my world

I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
That I put it down in words
How wonderful life is while you’re in my world

You’ve Got A Friend  (James Taylor)

When you’re down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights

(Chorus:)
You just call out my name
And you know where ever I am
I’ll come running, to see you again
Winter, spring, summer, or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there, yes I will…you’ve got a friend

If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
And soon I will be knocking upon your door

Chorus

Hey, ain’t it good to know that you’ve got a friend?
People can be so cold
They’ll hurt you and desert you
Well they’ll take your soul if you let them
Oh yeah, but don’t you let them

Chorus
 Oh baby, you got a friend, you got a friend
