I'm Nobody's Child

Lyrics:

recorded by Hank Snow
written by Mel Foree and Cy Coben
 
C                       F
I was slowly passing an orphan's home one day
   C                           D7                         G7
And stopped there for a moment just to watch the children play
  C                           F
A lonely boy was standing and when I asked him why
   C                                       G7          C
He turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry
 
                       C7       F
I'm nobody's child I’m nobody's child
G7                             C
I’m like a flower just growing wild
                     C7      F
No mommy’s kisses no daddy's smile
G7                           C
Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
 
                             F
People come for children and take them for their own
    C                           D7               G7
But they all seem to pass me by and leave me all alone
  C                               F
I know they'd like to take me but when they see I'm blind
     C                                  G7      C
They always take some other child and I am left behind
 
                              F
No mommy’s arms to hold me or sooth me when I cry
    C                            D7                  G7
Sometimes it gets so lonely here I wish that I could die
    C                          F
I’d walk the streets of heaven where all the blind can see
    C                                    G7           C
And just like all the other kids there’d be a home for me
 
 
Next two verses are spoken:
 
C
I just can’t seem to figure out 
F
Why the folks all pass me by
C
Cause I know that it’s true that God takes 
D7                                    G7
Little blind children with Him in the sky
 
    C
And they tell me I’m so pretty
    F
And they seem to like my big curls of gold
    C
But then they take some other little child
        G7           C
And I’m left here all alone
 
Repeat #2

Coat Of Many Colors

Lyrics:

Back through the years
I go wonderin once again
Back to the seasons of my youth
I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
And how my momma put the rags to use
There were rags of many colors
Every piece was small
And I didn't have a coat
And it was way down in the fall
Momma sewed the rags together
Sewin every piece with love
She made my coat of many colors
That I was so proud of
As she sewed, she told a story
From the bible, she had read
About a coat of many colors
Joseph wore and then she said
Perhaps this coat will bring you
Good luck and happiness
And I just couldnt wait to wear it
And momma blessed it with a kiss
Chorus:

My coat of many colors
That my momma made for me
Made only from rags
But I wore it so proudly
Although we had no money
I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

So with patches on my britches
Holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors
I hurried off to school
Just to find the others laughing
And making fun of me
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

And oh I couldnt understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told them of the love
My momma sewed in every stitch
And I told em all the story
Momma told me while she sewed
And how my coat of many colors
Was worth more than all their clothes

But they didn't understand it
And I tried to make them see
That one is only poor
Only if they choose to be
Now I know we had no money
But I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
Made just for me

How Great thou Art

Lyrics:

Oh Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works
Thy hands have made
I see the stars
I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout
The universe displayed

Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art
How great thou art
Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art

And When I think, of God,
His son not sparing,
Sent Him to die,
I scarce can take it in;
That on the cross, my burden
gladly bearing He bled and died
to take away my sin

Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art
How great thou art
Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art

When Christ shall come
With shout of acclamation
And take me home
What joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow
With humble adoration
And then proclaim My God
How great Thou art

Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art

How great Thou art
How great Thou art...

He Touched Me

Lyrics:

Shackled by a heavy burden
Neath a load of guilt and shame
Then the hand of jesus touched me
And now I am no longer the same

He touched me, oh he touched me
And oh the joy that floods my soul
Something happened and now I know
He touched me and made me whole

Since I met this blessed savior
Since he cleansed and made me whole
I will never cease to praise him
Ill shout it while eternity rolls

He touched me oh he touched me
And oh the joy that floods my soul
Something happened and now I know
He touched me and made me whole

Take My Hand, Precious Lord

Lyrics:

Songwriters: DORSEY, THOMAS A.

Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand
I'm tired, I'm weak, I'm lone
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 linger near
When my light 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'm tired, I'm weak, I'm lone
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home

Beyond The Sunset

Lyrics:

Should You Go First And I Remain
To Walk The Road Alone
I've Live In Memory's Garden Dear
With The Happy Days We've Known
And In Spring I'll Watch For Rose's Red
When Fades The Lilac Blue
And In Early Fall
When Brown Leaves Call
I'll Catch A Glimpse Of You.

Should You Go First And I Remain
To Finish With The Scroll
No Lengthening Shadows Shall Creep In
To Make This Life Drool
We've Known So Much Happiness
And We've Had Our Cup Of Joy
But Memory Is One Give Of God
That Death Cannot Destroy.

Should You Go First And I Remain
For Battles To Be Fought
Each Thing You've Touched Along The Way
Will Be A Hallowed Spot
I'll Hear Your Voice
And I'll See Your Smile
And Though Blindly I May Grope
The Memory Of Your Helping Hand
Will Boil Me On With Hope.

Should You Go First And I Remain
One Thing I'd Have You Do
Walk Slowly Down That Long, Long Path
For Soon I'll Follow You.
And I'll Want To Know Each Step You Take
That I May Walk The Same
For Someday Down That Lonely Road
You'll Hear Me Call Your Name.
