WHAT CHILD IS THIS
What Child is this, who laid to rest,
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?
CHORUS
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds gaurd and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christians fear: for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
CHORUS
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
Come, peasant, King to own Him;
The King of kings salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
CHORUS
SILENT NIGHT, HOLY NIGHT
Silent night, holy night,
All is calm, all is bright;
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child!
Holy Infant, so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, holy night,
Darkness flies, all is light;
Shepherds hear the angels sing,
"Alleluia! Hail the king!
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ, the Savior is born."
Silent night, holy night,
Son of God, love's pure light;
Radiant beams from Thy holy face,
With the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth,
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth.
Silent night, holy night,
Son of God, love's pure light;
With the angels let us sing,
Alleluia to our King;
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born.

AMAZING GRACE
1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
Now precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
3 Through many dangers, toils
and snares, I have already
come;
It's grace that brought me
safe thus far, And grace
will lead me home.
4 When we've been there ten
thousand years, Bright
shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing
God's praise, Then when
we first begun.
5 Amazing Grace! How warm the sound
That gave new life to me
He will my shield and portion be
His Word my hope secures.

ROCK OF AGES
Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee,
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy side, a healing flood,
Be of sin the double cure,
Save from wrath, and make me pure.
Should my tears forever flow,
Should my zeal no languor know,
All for sin could not atone,
Thou must save, and Thou alone,
In my hand no price I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling.
While I draw this fleeting breath,
When my eyelids close in death,
When I rise to worlds unknown,
And behold Thee on Thy throne,
Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.
GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN

Chorus: Go tell it on the mountain, over the hill and everywhere.
G C G Gm G D G
Go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born.
Who's that yonder dressed in red? Let my people go.
Must be the children that Moses led. Let my people go.
Who's that yonder dressed in white? Let my people go.
Must be the children of the Israelite. Let my people go.
Who's that yonder dressed in black? Let my people go.
Must be the hypocrites turning back. Ley my people go.
JUST AS I AM
A E7 A E7 D A
Just as I am, without one plea; But that thy blood was shed for me;
D A E7 A
And that Thou bidd'st me come to Thee; O Lamb of God, I come; I come.
Just as I am, tho' tossed about; With many a conflict, many a doubt;
Fightings and fears within, without; O Lamb of God, I come; I come.
Just as I am, Thou wilt recieve; Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse,
recieve;
Because Thy promise I believe; O Lamb of God, I come; I come.

LORD OF THE DANCE
G Em
1. I danced in the morning
G Em
When the world was begun,
C
And I danced in the moon
D7
And the stars and the sun,
G Em
And I came down from heaven,
G Em
And I danced on the earth
C D7 C G
At Bethlehem I had my birth
G Em G Em
Chorus: Dance then wherever you may be
G Em C D7
I am the Lord of the Dance said He,
G C G
And I'll lead you all
Wherever you may be
C D7
And I'll lead you all
C G Em G Em
In the dance said He.
2. I danced for the scribe (faster now)
And the Pharisee
But they wouldn't dance
And they wouldn't follow me,
I danced for the fisherman
For James and John
They came with me
And the dance went on.
3. I danced on the Sabbath
And I cured the lame
The holy people said
It was a shame,
They whipped and they stripped
And they hung me high
And they left me there
On a cross to die.
4. I danced on a Friday (slow down)
When the sky turned black
It's hard to dance
With the world on your back,
They buried my body
And they thought I'd gone
But I am the Dance
And I still go on. (speed up)
5. They cut me down
But I leapt up high
For I am the Life
That'll never, never die,
and I'll live in YOU
If you'll live in me
I am the Lord
Of the dance said He.

Some say he was on outlaw that he roamed across the land with a band of un-
G D
schooled ruffians and a few old fishermen. No one knew just where he came from
D* D Am C
or exactly what he'd done, but they said he must have done something bad that
G D
kept him on the run.
Some say he was a poet, that had stood upon the hill and his voice could calm
an angry crowd or make the waves stand still. He spoke in many parables, that few
could understand, but the people sat for hours just to listen to this man.
Some say he was a sorcerer, a man of mystery, he could walk upon the water, he
could make a blind man see. He conjured wine at weddings, he did tricks with
fish and bread, and he spoke of being born again, raised people from the dead.
Some say a politician who spoke of being free, he was followed by the masses
on the shores of Galilee. He spoke out against corruption and he bowed to no
decree, but they feared his strength and power so they nailed him to a tree.
Some say He was the Son of God, a man above all men, that He came to be a
servant and to set us free from sin. And that's who I believe He was, 'cause
that's who I believe, and I think we should get ready 'cause it's time for us
to leave.
PUT YOUR HAND IN THE HAND
CHORUS
G D7
Put your hand in the hand of the man that stilled the water
Am7 D7 G
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea
Dm G7 G
Take a look at yourself and you can look at others differently
G Em A7 D7 G C G
By putting your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee.
G D7
Everytime I look into that Holy Book I want to tremble
Am7 D7 G
When I read about the part where the carpenter cleaned out the temple
Dm G7 C
For the buyers and the sellers were no different fellas than what I
profess to be
G Em A7 D7 G C G
And it causes my shame to know we're not the people we should be.
CHORUS
Well my mama taught me how to pray before I reached the age of seven
She said, "There'll come a time there'll probably be room in heaven
And I'm feelin' kinda guilty about the number of times we do what
we do
But we forget that He loves us and forgives us, yes even you."
CHORUS
Well I'm glad I learned to pray before I reached the age of seven
For when I'm down on my knees that's - a when I'm close to heaven
Daddy lived his life with two kids and a wife, you do what you
must do
But he showed me enough of what it takes to get you thru.
CHORUS
WITHOUT WARNING By Jack Ross
D
Folks still tell the story 'bout the widow Sarah White
G D
How she befriended the outlaw that wild Dakota night.
D G
Two desperate people living desperately alone,
A G D
In desperate need of someone to keep them from the cold.
D
She found him near the wood shed, lying face down in the snow,
G D
That ran red with the blood from the wounds beneath his coat.
D G
In the light of a coal oil lamp she dug the bullets out
A G D
Kept watch until the danger passed and he could get about.
D A G D
O------n one Sunday morning
D A G A
H------e rode off without warning,
G D
Without warning.
D
It weren't but six weeks later while in Custer for supplies,
G
That she heard the shots ring out; heard the victim's cry,
G
Running to the spot where the people gathered round
A G D
She saw the outlaw towering o're the drunkard on the ground.
D A G D
O---------h that April morning,
D A G
Sh--------e grabbed a pistol,
A
and without warning
D G
Quickly raised it to his head and squeezed the trigger back,
Before the startled crowd, whe dropped the outlaw in his tracks.

Soar a - bove the hills of green and live your mountain dreams.
They tell about the city life around a campfire glow.
One sings forgotten mining songs, the other listens low.
And a quiet magic fills the air as the embers fade away.
For now there's three young cowboys sharin' memories of the day.
CHORUS
Now friends are joined from all about, from all across this land.
A common memory binds them all, a place that's truly grand.
And this moment always lives with us as a smile begins to form.
On each young weary traveler's face, and the hearts begin to warm.
CHORUS
So sing a song for special friends, and shed a tear for old.
For here stand those two aspen trees, their leaves have turned to gold.
As for me, I'm just on Ozard boy with a memory in my mind,
Of an autumn night we all once shared in a place that's lost in time.
