Verhaal

LYRICS by Elisabeth Eybers
'n Vrou het stil geword van baie wag:
die aarde het gegly deur die spiraal
van dag na nag, was beurtelings groen en vaal,
en sy het soms gehuil en soms gelag.
Ook was sy dikwels wakker in die nag,
maar sy het in haar wonings en op straat
gewoon gehandel en gewoon gepraat
en niemand het geweet hoedat sy wag.
Verlange word aanvaarding, langsaamaan,
Verlange word aanvaarding, langsaamaan,
Langsaamaan, Langsaamaan
Want wag is beurtelings hoop en wanhoop,
tot die twee versmelt en stilte alleen bestaan.
En deur die jare het sy self die slot
van die verhaal geword: haar stilte en krag
was skoner as die ding waarop sy wag.

Never Forget
04:09

I’ll never forget
The trouble I’ve seen
The places I’ve been (2 bars)
I’ll never forget
The silence and fears
You counted my tears
No pit so deep, God’s love is deeper still
No broken heart, that Jesus cannot heal
The Lord’s great love couldn’t have run out,
could’t have run out
His mercies wide, couldn’t have dried up,
couldn’t have dried up
His mercies are new every morning
Great is his faithfulness, Oh Lord
How can I explain
The peace I have known
The mercies You’ve shown
You silence the storm
You talk to the waves
Defeat turns to victory
I’m turning the page
No pit so deep, God’s love is deeper still
No broken heart, that Jesus cannot heal
The Lord’s great love couldn’t have run out,
could’t have run out
His mercies wide, couldn’t have dried up,
couldn’t have dried up
His mercies are new every morning
Great is his faithfulness, Oh Lord
Your mercies are new every morning
Great is your faithfulness

New Day
03:22
|
|||
|
In the middle of the night, when I can’t sleep
And the worries of life seem to break my soul
And I question my sanity
And I can’t help but wonder
When it’s dark and somber
Can you really make whole what is broken
Shall I make it through the night
Can I give it all over to You
Or shall I keep a little back to help you out
Is it really really true what they say
Can I give all my burdens away
Can You take it on your shoulders and make the broken things whole
I have no doubt, I know my troubles are small
They probably don’t compare to many others’
But - can You help me out, I’m tired (asking)
Can You show me how to live
And when I wake up in the morning
And I feel I can carry on
And I open my eyes to a new day, I can sing a new song
And I feel I can breathe a little better
I have the grace where I can say - You are, the New Day.
I wrote a song - about, choosing love and joy
But I find myself acting in the opposite way
I know it’s true what You say
I can - give all my burdens away
- You will take it on your shoulders
and make the broken things whole
And when I wake up in the morning
And I feel I can carry on
And I open my eyes to a new day, I can sing a new song
And I feel I can breathe a little better
I have the grace where I can say
You are - the New Day, You are - the New Day
You are, You are, the New Day
You are, You are, the New Day

Skep In My 'n Rein Hart
03:17

|
Skep in my n rein hart o Heer
Vind in my gestalte meer en meer
Maak my standvastig en sterk
En bekwaam vir elke goeie werk
Deurgrond my hart U sien reg deur my
Sien my onrus raak en maak my vry
Maak my denke nuut en lei my weer
Op die beproefde pad o Heer
As ek val en seerkry
Vind my en dra my
As ek soek, verdwaal en swaarkry
Vorm my en maak my
Leer my van die kruis - my kort bestaan
Om die grootheid van U liefde te verstaan
Gee my die woorde opnuut om met n nuwe lied
U lof te besing
As ek val en seerkry
Vind my en dra my
As ek soek, verdwaal en swaarkry
Vorm my en maak my

L'Éternel est mon Berger
02:26
|
|||
|
L'Éternel est mon berger: je ne manquerai de rien.
Il me fait reposer dans de verts pâturages,
Il me dirige près des eaux paisibles.
Il restaure mon âme,
Il me conduit dans les justes chemins,
A cause de son nom.
Quand je marche dans la vallée de l'ombre de la mort,
Je ne crains aucun mal, car tu es avec moi :
Ta houlette et ton bâton voilà mon réconfort.
Tu Dresses devant moi une table,
En face de mes adversaires;
Tu - oins d’huile ma tête,
Et ma coupe déborde.
Oui, le bonheur et la grâce
M'accompagneront tous les jours de ma vie,
L'Éternel est mon berger: je ne manque de rien.
Et je reviendrai, dans la maison de Dieu
Pour la durée de ma vie.

Just as I Am

LYRICS by Charlotte Elliot
Just as I am,
Without one plea, but that Your blood was shed for me
And that You call me come to Me
O Lamb of God, I come!
Just as I am,
Though tossed about, with so much conflict, so much doubt
Fighting fears within without
O Lamb of God, I come.
Just as I am, just as I am, Oh Lamb of God
To You I come
Just as I am,
Without delay, your call of mercy I obey
your blood can wash my sins away:
O Lamb of God, I come.
Just as I am,
Poor, wretched, blind, sight, riches, healing of the mind
Yes, all I need, in You to find
O Lamb of God, I come.
Just as I am,
Your infinite love has broken every barrier down
now to be yours, yes, yours alone,
O Lamb of God, I come.
Just as I am, just as I am
Just as I am, I come to You
Just as I am, just as I am
Just as I am, I come to You

Eva-Katryn, mag die son oor jou skyn
Eva-Katryn, mag die son oor jou skyn
Kind van genade, liefde en hoop
Mag jy op paaie van geregtigheid loop
En goedheid en guns jou volg
En goedheid en guns jou vind
Oo, Eva-Katryn,
Mmm, Eva-Katryn

Even Though
04:08
|

|
Even though the fig trees have no blossoms,
And there are no grapes growing on the vines
Even though the labor of the olive shall fail,
And the fields lie empty and dry.
Even though the flocks are dying in the fields,
and there be no herds in the stalls
Yet I will rejoice in the God of my salvation!
I will rejoice in the Lord
The Sovereign Lord is my strength!
He makes me walk upon the heights
The Sovereign Lord is my strength
He makes me walk with confidence on places high

Suspended In Silence
by Hipnotic Earth
From the word go, this album sweeps you out of the noise, straight into something ephemeral! Amazing..

The Chicago wunderkind's debut album is half lo-fi hip-hop pianos and breakneck drumming, half polished pop songs full of orchestral arrangements and whimsical but melancholic melodies.
