Übersetzung und Informationen zum Gospel: Wade in the water
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE A MOTHERLESS CHILD
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Long way from my home
Sometimes I wish I could fly
Like a bird up in the sky
Oh, sometimes I wish I could fly
Fly like a bird up in the sky
Sometimes I wish I could fly
Like a bird up in the sky
Closer to my home.
Motherless children have a hard time
Motherless children have-a such a hard time
Motherless children have such a really hard time
A long way from home.
Sometimes I feel like freedom is near
Sometimes I feel like freedom is here
Sometimes I feel like freedom is so near
But we're so far from home.
PRECIOUS LORD
Precious Lord, take my hand.
Lead me on, let me stand.
I am tired, I am weak, and worn.
Through the storm, through the night,
Lead me on to the light.
Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.
When my way grows drear, precious Lord,
Lead me near,
When my life is almost gone.
Hear my cry, hear my call.
Hold my hand, lest I fall.
Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.
When the darkness appears and the night draws near,
And the day is past and gone,At the river I stand.
Guide my feet, hold my hand,
Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.
Precious Lord, take my hand,
Lead me on, let me stand.
I am tired, I'm weak and worn.
Through the storm, through the night,
Lead me on to the light.
Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.
AMAZING GRACE
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.
The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be
as long as life endures.
When we've been here a thousand years
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise
then when we've first begun.
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.
BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored,
He has loosed the fateful lightening of His terrible swift sword
His truth is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps
l can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps
His day is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnish`d rows of steel,
As ye deal with my contemners, So with you my grace shall deal;
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel
Since God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
He has sounded form the trumpet that shall never call retreat
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me:
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
While God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN
Go, tell it on the mountains, over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
When I was a sinner,
I prayed both night and day,
I asked the Lord to help me,
and He showed me the way.
Go, tell it on the mountains,
over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
It was in a lowly manger
that Jesus Christ was born;
the Lord send down an angel
that bright an' glorious morn.
Go, tell it on the mountains,
over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
He made me a watchman
upon the city wall,
and if I am a christian,
I am the least of all.
Go, tell it on the mountains,
over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
While shepherds kept their watching
O'er silent flocks by night,
Behold throughout the heavens,
There shone a holy light.
Go, tell it on the mountains,
over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
JOSHUA FIT THE BATTLE OF JERICHO
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho,
and the walls came a tumbalin' down, down, down, down.
You may talk about your men of Gideon,
you may talk about your men of Saul,
but there's none like good old Josh-a-ua,
at the battle of Jericho, that morning;
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho,
and the walls came a tumbalin' down, down, down, down.
Joshua rose early in the morning,
that is when the trumpets blew,
they marched around the city,
at the battle of Jericho.
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho,
and the walls came a tumbalin' down, down, down, down.
Right up to the walls of Jericho,
he marched with spear in hand,
Joshua commanded the children to shout,
and the walls came a tumbalin' down, down, down, down;
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, the trumpets they did blow, so,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, and the walls came a tumbalin' down.
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, now you know, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, and the walls came a tumbalin' down.
Now you know who tore the wall down,
now you know who tore the wall down, down, down,
Joshua!(in a whisper)

If you just call me
So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
