Bridge Over Troubled Water

(Paul Simon)

When you’re weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I’m on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can’t be found
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down

When you’re down and out
When you’re on the street
When evening falls so hard I will comfort you
I’ll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down

Sail on Silver Girl, Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I’m sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind

 

Muphulusi

(My Saviour)
(Venda Traditional)

When I see my saviour dying on the cross,
I should stop being a sinner.
Let’s all thank the Lord because his wounds are
Our pillar of strength for ever.
Among all gods, there’s none like him.
His wounds are our pillar of strength for ever.

Ndikhokele (Xhosa Traditional) (Lead Me Lord)

Lead me Lord
I’m a stranger in this world
You have the Power:
I have none
I am weak
Oh My Lord
You’re my shield

The blood that flowed from the cross
For my salvation
Let it continue flowing
To cleanse my sins
Oh My Lord
You’re my help

I’ve come to the river Jordan
Wash away all my sins
Take me across
Be my helper
Oh my Lord
You’re my refuge

Put Your Hand/ Joy, Peace & Happiness/ What  a Mighty God

Put your hand in the hand of
the man who stills the water Put your hand in the hand of the man who calms the sea

Take a look at yourself
and you can look at others differently
Put your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee.
Just put your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee
Put your hands to the man, look at yourself
Trust in Jesus

You have joy, peace and happiness in your soul
Joy, peace and happiness
What a Mighty God we serve
The angels bow before Him
Worship and adore Him

Just put your hands
Just put your hands in the hand of the man from Galilee
Joy, peace and happiness in my soul

Ngahlulele

(Redeem Me)
(Zulu Traditional)

Redeem me Lord Set me free From the deceiver Who creeps in like a snake You are seated On the right hand of God

You are my refuge Where I find life You are seated On the right hand of God

Send the light Of God To light my path To lead me to heaven So I can see you Lord You are seated On the right hand of God

 

Voices on the Wind

Standing by the ocean watch it tear away the shore
Glide out upon the desert, the horizon is the door
And though your voice is shouting above the wind it can’t be heard
Drop all sense of reason, it’s there you’ll find your worth
And though you are srrounded, feeling quite alone
There’s a light to guide you home If you stand with your face to the wind off the water At the point of lands end where the ocean begins
Look to the memory of the ones gone before
The light and meaning of the voices on the wind
Searching for safe passage as you knock on every door
You still can hear the howling of the mongrel dogs of war
You call our for some comfort seeking shelter from the night
A raging rain’s upon you feeling tired of the fight
And though you are surrounded, feeling quite alone
There’s a light to guide you home If you stand
with your face to the wind off the water
At the point of lands end where the ocean begins
Look to the memory of the ones gone before
The light and meaning of the voices on the wind
Their words carry over water, and fall back down to earth
What follows is the silence as you contemplate their worth
A vision comes before you, but the meaning’s still unclear
Standing at the threshold as you watch it disappear
And though you are surrounded, feeling quite alone
There’s a light to guide you home If you stand with your face to the wind off the water At the point of lands end where the ocean begins
Look to the memory of the ones gone before
The light and meaning of the voices on the wind

 

Ngoma

(A Song)
(Zulu Traditional)

We travel across the countries
Singing our song
We travel across the countries
Singing our song All nations love our songs
This is the song
Yes this is the song
Oh! It is Jesus
Oh it is Jesus, Oh it is Jesus, It’s Jesus in my soul;
For I have touched the hem of His garment,
And His blood has made me whole.
I tried all that I could, Seemed like nothing did me any good.
Then I heard Jesus, He was passing by, And I decided to give Him a try.
There’s a light to guide you home Prayer for South Africa
Lord in Heaven above
This day is on its last turn And the sun, Lord, the sun looks like he’s thirsty
For he stands closer and closer to the blue of the ocean

Oh Lord we pray for our country  In you I Trust
You are my rock Bring us close to you

Give faith Hope and Love Oh Lord

Jerusalem
(Zulu Traditional)

Jerusalem is my home
That I love so much
My wishes and hopes are for you
My eyes will see beautiful gates
And the street of gold Of the City of Salvation Malaika (My Beautiful Angel)
I love you my angel I want to marry you to be my wife
But I don’t have any money to pay for lobola (dowry)
You’re the only angel I think of
You bring happiness to my heart If I marry you, I’ll be the happiest man

Ave Maria

Hail Mary, Full of grace, The Lord is with thee; Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, Now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
