For Health and Strength
For health and strength and daily bread we praise thy name, O Lord.
Rise up, O flame, by thy light burning show to us beauty, wisdom, and joy.
All things shall perish from under the sky.
Music alone shall live, music alone shall live,
Music alone shall live, never to die!Make new friends, but keep the old,
One is silver and the other's gold.Dewey was an admiral on Manilla Bay,
Dewy was a morning in the month of May,
Dewy were her eyes as she pledged her love so true,
Do we love each other? Yes, indeed we do.
Do we love each other? Yes, indeed we do.Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree,
Merry, merry king of the bush is he,
Laugh, kookaburra, laugh, kookaburra,
Gay you life must be.White coral bells upon a slender stalk,
Lilies of the valley line my garden walk.
Oh, don't you wish that you could hear them ring,
That will happen only when the fairies sing.Whene'er you make a promise, consider well its importance,
And, when made, engrave it upon your heart.Come and go with me today.
We will sail across the bay.Sweetly sings the donkey at the break of day,
If you do not feed him, this is what he'll say:
Hee-haw, hee-haw, hee-haw, hee-haw, hee-haw.Ezekiel saw a wheel a-rollin', way in the middle of the air.
A wheel within a wheel a-rollin', way in the middle of the air.
The first wheel runs by faith,
The second wheel runs by the grace of God.
Ezekiel saw a wheel a-rollin', way in the middle of the air.Glory to thee, my God, this night for all the blessings of the light.
Keep me, oh keep me, King of kings, beneath thine own almighty wings.Gone to bed is the setting sun,
Night is coming and day is done.
Whipporwill, whipporwill has just begun.A ram sam sam, a ram sam sam,
Guli guli guli guli guli ram sam sam.
A ram sam sam, a ram sam sam,
Guli guli guli guli guli ram sam sam.A rafi, a rafi, guli guli guli guli guli ram sam sam.
A rafi, a rafi, guli guli guli guli guli ram sam sam.Hark to the chimes, come bow thy head.
We thank thee, God, for this good bread.Alleluia, alleluia, ...
Rosen fra Fuhn, rosen fra Fuhn, rosen fra Fuhn, rosen fra Fuhn.
Sing, sing together, merrily, merrily sing.
Sing, sing together, merrily, merrily sing.
Sing, sing, sing, sing.My paddle's keen and bright, flashing like silver,
Follow the wild goose flight, dip, dip and swing.Rose, Rose, Rose, Rose, shall I ever see thee wed?
I will marry at thy will, sire, at thy will.Hey, ho! Nobody at home,
Meat nor drink nor money have I none,
Yet will I be merry!Come, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow me.
Whither shall I follow, follow, follow, whither shall I follow, follow thee?
To the greenwood, to the greenwood, to the greenwood, greenwood tree.Fare thee well, luck go with thee! When I'm far remember me.
Have You Seen the Ghost of John
Have you seen the ghost of John,
Long white bones and the rest all gone,
Oo, oo-oo-oo-oo-oo!
Wouldn't it be chilly with no skin on?Dona nobis pacem, pacem. Dona nobis pacem.
Dona nobis pacem. Dona nobis pacem.
Dona nobis pacem. Dona nobis pacemJubilate Deo, jubilate Deo. Alleluia!
Shalom, chaverim, shalom chaverim, shalom.
Lehitraot, lehitraot, shalom, shalom.A plea for one world is heard in many different lands.
This is the plea of a world that is hungry for peace.
Let all men come together, let all men live together,
Striving to make the world better, pledging their lives to peace.
Hello
Hello, hello, hello, hello.
We are glad to meet you,
We are glad to greet you,
Hello, hello, hello, hello.Down yonder green valley where streamlets meander,
When twilight is fading I pensively rove.
Or at the bright noontide in solitude wander
Amid the dark shades of the lonely ash grove.'Tis there where the blackbird is cheerfully singing,
Each warbler enchants with his notes from the tree.Ah, then little think I of sorrow or sadness,
The ash grove entrancing spells beauty for me.Peace I ask of thee, O river -- peace, peace, peace.
When I learn to live serenely cares will cease.
From the hills I gather courage,
Vision of the day to be,
Strength to lead and faith to follow,
All are given unto me.
Peace I ask of thee, O river -- peace, peace, peace.This land is your land, this land is my land,
From California to the New York island,
From the redwood forests to the Gulf Stream waters,
This land was made for you and me.Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine,
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine today.The silver moon is shining upon the silent meadow,
I wander down the meadow with no one near me.De colores, de colores se visten los campos en la primavera,
De colores, de colores son los parajitos que vienen de afuera.
De colores, de colores es el arco ires que vemos lucir.
Y por eso los grandes amoes de muchos colores me gustan a mi.
Y por eso los grandes amoes de muchos colores me gustan a mi.All night, all day, angels watching over me, my Lord.
All night, all day, angels watching over me.Now I lay me down to sleep,
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
Pray the Lord my soul to keep,
Angels watching over me.How many roads must a man walk down before they call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail before she sleeps in the sand?
How many times must the canon balls fly before they're forever banned?The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind,
The answer is blowing in the wind.
Songs in 2-3 Parts:
One bottle o' pop, two bottle o' pop, three bottle o' pop, four bottle o' pop,
Five bottle o' pop, six bottle o' pop, seven bottles of pop,Don't put your dust in my dust bin, my dust bin, my dust bin,
Don't put your dust in my dust bin, my dust bin's full.Fish and chips and vinegar, vinegar, vinegar,
Fish and chips and vinegar, pepper, pepper, pepper, pot.Upon a summer's evening I walked the forest through,
When suddenly I heard a sweet and low cuckoo,Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo,
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo.Mr. Moon, Mr. Moon, you're out too soon; the sun is still in the sky!
Go back to your bed and cover up your head and wait 'til the stars go by.Swing along the open road under sky that's clear.
Swing along the open road in the fall of the year.
Swing along, swing along, swing along the open road,
All in the fall of the year.Swinging along the open road, swinging along under sky that's clear,
Swinging along the open road, all in the fall, in the fall of the year,
Swinging along, swinging along the open road all in the fall of the year.I love the mountains, I love the rolling hills,
I love the flowers, I love the daffodils,
I love the fireside when all the lights are dim.Boom-de-ada, boom-de-ada, ...
Stamp and dance, be nimble and merry,
But watch the stove, do try to be wary,
For you must know I have no warm bed,
And when it's cold I need it instead.Tra la la la, Tra la la la, La la la la, La la la la.
It's a world of laughter, a world of tears,
It's a world of hopes and a world of fears.
There's so much that we share,
That it's time we compare,
It's a small world after all.It's a small world after all.
It's a small world after all.
It's a small world after all.
It's a small, small world.Swing low, sweet chariot, coming for to carry me home.
Swing low, sweet chariot, coming for to carry me home.Swing low, chariot, swing low, chariot ...
Swing low, swing low, ...
Zum gali gali, zum gali gali, ...
Hashalom l'maan ha'amin: ha'amin l'maan hashalom.
Horsey, horsey , on your way,
We've been together for many a day
So let your tail go swish as the wheels go 'round --
Giddy-up! We're homeward bound.I like to take a horse and buggy as I go riding through the town,
I like to hear old Dobbin's clip-clop, I like to feel the wheels go 'round.
While you're here, drop in on the Freedom Valley GS Council Singing Interest Group.
