Dottie West Album

Oh Lord my God when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made
I see the stars I hear the rolling thunder Thy art throughout the universe displayed
Then sings my soul my Saviour God to Thee how great Thou art how great Thou art
Then sings my soul my Saviour God to Thee how great Thou art how great Thou art
[ strings ]
When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation
And take me home what joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow in humble adoration and there proclaim my God how great Thou art
Then sings my soul...
How great Thou art how great Thou art

I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
I believe for every one who goes astray someone will come and show the way
I believe I believe
I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in that great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear a new born baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe

When you walk through a storm hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm is a golden sky and the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on walk on with hope in your heart and you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Walk on walk on...

When I look up at the heavens when day is through
Once again there's a good day I'll hold to you
With the world to watch over still you watch me too I'm grateful grateful
When I sit at my table I say a prayer
Bout the good things upon it that you put there
And my loved ones around it not empty chair I'm grateful Lord to Thee
You have brought me good times you have brought me bad times
But through the good and bad times you always send me a song to sing
When I lie on my pillow I say a prayer
For the blessings you send me and load and care
And the world full of sunshine and my help is there I'm grateful grateful Lord to Thee

(He's the King of Kings)
I stood upon a lonely mountain side when suddenly a vision came to me
I saw Golgota's Hill where Jesus died to give men hope for immortality
I thought do we appreciate for call the cruel suffering crucifiction brings
Kneel down and pray before your chance is lost for he is the King of Kings
[ guitar ]
I stood beside a river deep and wide and watched its waters flow out to the sea
And I thought why do we let our selfish pride fill our lives with shame and misery
Why do we say Lord let Thy will be done
Then prove how much we lie each day God brings
Kneel down and pray before your chance is lost for he is the King of Kings
He is the King of Kings

Our father which art in heaven hallowed be Thy name
Thy kingdom come Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors
And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever amen

Lord I come to Thee on bended knees my heart is apressed by my sinfulness
Renew my strenght and fate in Thee block out my careless deeds
Oh Lord is it I who betray Thee today forgive my sins wash 'em all away
My soul looks sore to Thee oh Lord I pray oh Lord oh Lord is it I
Oh Lord is it I...

Why should I feel disgrace and why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely and long for a heavenly home
When Jesus is my fortress and my constant frantisy
His eye is on the sparrow and I know he cares for me
His eye is on the sparrow and I know God watches over me
I sing because my soul is happy and I sing because I'm free
For his eye is on the sparrow and I know God watches over me
Yes I sing because my soul is happy and I sing because I'm free
For his eye is on the sparrow and I know God watches over you and me

[No lyrics]

(Then I met the Master now I am one of his own)
Like a baby that cries for its mother like a child I was helpless in this world alone
Then I met the Master now I am one of his own
For all things were changed when he found me
A new day broke through all around me
Then I met the Master now I am one of his own
[ guitar ]
For all things were changed...
Yes I met the Master now I am one of his own

Once I stood in the night with my head bowed low
In the darkness as black as could be
And I felt so alone and I cried oh Lord don't hide your face from me
Hold my hand all the way every hour every day
From here to the great unknown
Take my hand and let me stand where no one stands alone
[ steel ]
Like a king I may live in a palace so high with great riches to call all my own
But I don't know a thing in this whole wide world that's worse than being alone
Hold my hand all the way...

Saviour again to Thy dear name we raise with one accord our parting hymn of praise
Once more we bless Thee ere our worship cease
Then lowly bending wait Thy word of peace
(Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way
With Thee began with Thee shall end the day)
Guard Thou the lips from sin the hearts from shame
That in this house have called upon Thy name
[ strings ]
Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life
Our balm in sorrow and our stay in strife
Then when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease
Call us oh Lord to Thine eternal peace amen
