(Let's sing together the refrain:)

Ol' man river

Dat ol' man river

He mus' know sumpin'

But don't say nuthin'

He jes' keeps rollin'

He keeps on rollin' along

(____ will read these lyrics:)

Dere's an ol' man

Called de Mississippi

Dat's de ol' man

Dat I'd like to be!

What does he care

If de world's got troubles?

What does he care

If de land ain't free?

He don't plant taters,

He don't plant cotton,

An' dem dat plants'em

Is soon forgotten,

But ol'man river,

He jes' keeps rollin' along.

You an'me

We sweat an' strain,

Body all achin'

An' rack'd wid pain,

Tote dat barge!

Lif' dat bale!

Git a little drunk

An' you land in jail.

Ah gits weary

An' sick of tryin'

Ah'm tired of livin'

An' skeered of dyin',

But ol' man river,

He jes'keeps rolling' along.

Let me go 'way

From the Mississippi,

Let me go 'way

From de white man boss;

Show me dat stream

Called de river Jordan,

Dat's de ol' stream

Dat I long to cross.

Ah, gits weary

An' sick of tryin'

Ah'm tired of livin'

An' skeered of dyin',

But ol' man river,

He jes'keeps rollin' along!

(Let's sing again the refrain:)

Ol' man river

Dat ol' man river

He mus' know sumpin'

But don't say nuthin'

He jes' keeps rollin'

He keeps on rollin' along

For worry or for fear

Is kind beyond all measure

Gives unto

Each day what he deems best

Lovingly

It's part of pain and pleasure

Mingling toil

With peace and rest

The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power   (s)

The blood that Jesus shed for me

Way back on Calvary

The blood that gives me strength

From day to day

It will never lose its power

It reaches to the highest mountain

It flows to the lowest valley

The blood that gives me strength

From day to day

It will never lose its power

It soothes my doubts

And calms my fears

And it dries all my tears

The blood that gives me strength

From day to day

It will never lose its power

Until Then   C (G)

My heart can sing

When I pause to remember

A heartache here

Is but a stepping stone

Along a trail

That's winding always upward

This troubled world

Is not my final home

(refrain)

But until then

My Heart Will Go On singing

Until then

With joy I'll carry on

Until the day

My eyes behold the city

Until the day

God calls me home

(2nd verse)

The things of earth

Will dim and lose their value

If we recall

They are borrowed for a while

And things of earth

That caused the heart to tremble

Remembered there

Will only bring a smile

(to refrain)

Bless the Lord   (s)

He has done great things

Bless His holy name

Before You

As a token of our love

Higher than the Hills   C (G)

Because He first loved me

And purchased my salvation

On Cal-vry's tree

Come, Thou Fount   (s - flats)

Come Thou Fount

Of every blessing

Tune my heart to sing thy grace

Streams of mercy never ceasing

Call for songs of loudest praise

Teach me some melodious sonnet

Sung by flaming tongues above

Praise His name! I'm fixed upon it!

Name of God's redeeming love

Hitherto Thy love has blessed me

Thou hast brought me

To this place

And I know Thy hand will bring me

Safely home by Thy good grace

Jesus sought me when a stranger

Wondering from the fold of God

He to rescue me from danger

Bought me with

His precious blood

(Prone to wander)

O to grace how great a debtor

Daily I'm constrained to be!

Let Thy goodness like a fetter

Bind my wandering heart to Thee

Prone to wander Lord I feel it

Prone to leave the God I love

Here's my heart O take and seal it

Seal it for thy courts above

May Jesus Christ Be Praised   C (E)

When morning gilds the skies

My heart awaking cries

May Jesus Christ be praised!

Alike at work and prayer

To Jesus I repair

May Jesus Christ be praised!

Does sadness fill my mind?

A solace here I find

May Jesus Christ be praised!

Or fades my earthly bliss?

My comfort still is this

May Jesus Christ be praised!

(When evil thoughts molest)

When sleep her balm denies

My silent spirit sighs

May Jesus Christ be praised!

When evil thoughts molest

With this I shield my breast

May Jesus Christ be praised

Be this, while life is mine

My song of love divine

May Jesus Christ be praised!

Sing this eternal song

Through all the ages long

May Jesus Christ be praised!

Day is Dying in the West   C (C)

Day is dying in the west

Heav’n is touching earth with rest

Wait and worship while the night

Sets her evening lamps alight

Through all the sky

(Chorus)

Holy holy holy

Lord God of Hosts!

Heav’n and earth are full of Thee!

Heav’n and earth are praising Thee

O Lord most high!

Lord of life beneath the dome

Of the universe Thy home

Gather us who seek Thy face

To the fold of Thy embrace

For Thou art nigh

While the deepening shadows fall

Heart of love enfolding all

Through the glory and the grace

Of the stars that veil Thy face

Our hearts ascend
