Lyrics: Songs That Begin With "G"
-G-
Give the World a Smile - Otis Deaton and M. L. Yandell
Are you giving to the world a smile (sunny smile)
********************************************
Glory in the Cross - Dottie Rambo
I boast not of works nor tell of good deeds,
God Is Good All the Time (Paul Overstreet)
(*First Chorus played at half speed)
God Will - Connie Smith/Nat Stuckey
God will walk with me down streets where no one else will walk
God will bear with me little pains that no one knows but Him
God will talk with me when friends forget and fail to understand
When no one will - God will
God Will Make This Trial A Blessing
I just came into a valley
Going Home - Connie Church Version
(set to the music of Dvorak's 9th Symphony, third movement.)
(Key of "D")
Going home, going home,
Every tear wiped away,
Going home, going home,
Words are by William Arms Fisher and Ken Bible
*************************************
Going home.
Going home, going home
It's not far, just close by
Mother's there expecting me
All the friends I knew
I'm going home
Nothing's lost, all's gain
Morning star lights the way
There's no break, there's no end
Going home, going home
Going home, going home
Many times in my childhood
(8)
Helping lessen someone's dreary mile (dreary mile)
Do you greet the world with song as through life you pass along
Cheering those you may meet along life's way
****************************************************
Chorus:
Give the world a smile each day (give the world a bright smile every day)
Helping someone on life's way (helping someone on life's dreary way)
From the paths of sin (paths of sin) oh bring the wonderer's in (bring them in)
To the master's fold to stay (to His fold, His forever to stay)
Help to cheer the lone and sad (help cheer the sad, the lonely and sad)
Help to make some pilgrim glad (help make pilgrim, make somebody glad)
Let your life so be that (life so be that) all the world might see
The joy of serving Jesus with a smile (a bright sunny smile)
****************************************************
Give the world a happy song today (song today)
That will help some pilgrim on His way (on His way)
You can tell him of the Lord and His heavenly reward
If you'll only follow Jesus day by day
****************************************************
Repeat Chorus
****************************************************

********************************************
He never said you only see sunshine,
He never said there would be no rain.
He only promised a heart full of singing
About the very thing that once brought pain.
********************************************
for naught have I done to merit His grace
All glory and praise shall rest upon Him,
so willing to die in my place
*****************************************
Chorus:
I will glory in the cross, in the cross,
lest His suffering all be in vain
I will weep no more, for the cross that He bore,
but I will glory in the cross
*****************************************
(key change Modulate one whole key upward)
Verse:
My trophies and crown, my robe stained with sin,
t'was all that I had to lay at His feet
Unworthy to eat from the table of life,
until His love made provision for me
*****************************************
Chorus:
Tag:
In the cross, In the cross
Be my glory ever
I will weep no more for the pain that He bore but I will glory
I will glory
I will glory in the cross!
CHORUS:
God is good, all the time
He put a song of praise in this heart of mine
God Is good, all the time
Through the darkest night His light will shine
God is good, God is good, all the time
-------------------
Repeat (fast - and maintain speed throughout the song)
-------------------
If you're walking through the valley
And there's shadows all around
Do not fear he will guide you
He will keep you safe and sound
He has promised to never leave you
Nor forsake you and His word is true
**********************
CHORUS
**********************
We were sinners so unworthy
Still for us He chose to die
He filled us with His Holy Spirit
Now we can stand and testify
That His love is everlasting
And His mercies they will never end
****************************
CHORUS
****************************
(half speed)
Well, I may not understand
All the plans You have for me
My life is in Your hands
And through the eyes of faith
(back to faster speed)I can clearly see
***************
CHORUS
Tag:
God is good, He's so good,
God is good, He's so good,
God is good, He's so good,
All the time.
God will talk with me about things of which no one else will talk
When no one else will walk, and no one else will talk
When No one will - God will
God will care for me whenever there is no one else who can
When no one will be there and no one else will care
When no one will - God will
God will strengthen me when I am weak and need a helping hand
When no one understands, or lends a helping hand
When no one will - God will
One like I've never seen before
I keep searching for a way out
But there are locks on all the doors
Oh there must be another sunrise
Another sunset that I see
God will make this trial a blessing
That's the love He has for me
*********************************
CHORUS:
God will make this trial a blessing
Though it sends me to my knees
Though my tears flow like a river
Yet in Him there's sweet release
There's no need to get discouraged
There's no need to try to flee
God will make this trial a blessing
And the whole wide world will see
*********************************
I was not the first one
To come into this place
You see every child of God
Has tests that they must face
It is true that God will mold you
And make you what you ought to be
God will make this trial a blessing
Just be patient you will see
*********************************
Now I'm standing on a mountain
Looking back I can see
When I was in that lowest valley
His strong hand was leading me
Oh it's good to see the sunshine
And to taste sweet victory
God has made this trial a blessing
He shows the love He has for me
*********************************
CHORUS x 2
I'll be going home.
Quiet-like, slip away,
I'll be going home.
********************************
It's not far - just close by;
Jesus is the Door;
Work all done, laid aside,
Fear and grief no more.
********************************
Friends are there, waiting now.
He is waiting, too.
See His smile! See His hand!
He will lead me through.
********************************
Morning Star lights the way;
Restless dream all done;
Shadows gone, break of day,
Life has just begun.
Pain and sickness gone;
Wide awake there with Him!
Peace goes on and on!
I'll be going home.
See the Light! See the Sun!
I'm just going home.
Note: This is the same song with different words. I don't know who this is by, but Connie Church was the singer for the first version. She sang it at President Ronald Reagan's funeral. The words on this one was also so beautiful that I had to include it. Chords are the same.
I'm just going home
Quiet light, some still day
I'm just going home
Through an open door
Work all done, care laid by
Going to fear no more
Father's waiting, too
Lots of folk gathered there
All the friends I knew
No more fret nor pain
No more stumbling on the way
No more longing for the day
Going to roam no more
Restless dream all done
Shadows gone, break of day
Real life begun
Just a living on
Wide awake with a smile
Going on and on
I'm just going home
It's not far, just close by
Through an open door
I am going home
I'm just going home
(Repeat)
We travelled so far
By nightfall how weary I'd grow
Father's arms would slip round me
And gently he'd say
My son, we're going home
*************************
CHORUS:
Going home, I'm going home
There is nothing to hold me here
I caught a glimpse
Of that heavenly land
Praise God, I am going home
*************************
Now the twilight is fading
And the day soon shall end
I get homesick the farther I roam
But my Father has led me each step of the way
And now I am going home
*************************
CHORUS:
*************************
Tag Line (With feeling)
Praise God, I am going home....
