A Song For A Sunday.

Be Okay.

Songwriters: American contemporary Christian Music-folk singer and songwriter, Ellie Holcomb (Elizabeth Asher Holcomb) and American contemporary Christian music singer and songwriter, Lauren Ashley Daigle.
Vocals: American contemporary Christian music singer and songwriter, Lauren Daigle.

Be Okay.

You’re gonna be okay.
You’re, you’re gonna be okay.
Oh, the sun will keep on risin’ in that old familiar way,
And every little thing is gonna be okay.
You’re gonna be alright,
Darling, you’re, you’re gonna be alright,
‘Cause the stars will keep on shinin’ through the darkest night,
And you can know you’re gonna be alright.
Lift your eyes to the hills,
Remember where your help comes from.
Lift your eyes to the hills,
You’ll never face a valley alone.
‘Cause even when your heart is breakin’,
And you’ve gone and lost your way,
Oh Lord you’re, you’re gonna be okay.
You’re gonna be okay.
I know that you’re, you’re gonna be okay.
Not a care in this whole world that can take that truth away,
You’re, you’re gonna be okay.
You’re gonna be alright,
My darlin’, you’re, you’re gonna be alright,
At the end of all our breath, when we’re beckoned on to the light,
Love’ll meet you there, you’re gonna be alright.
Oh, the end of all our breath is the beginning of new life,
Lord, you’re gonna be alright.

Help Yourself.

Help Yourself.

Lyrics: Journalist, writer, songwriter, and spy-catcher (Spy identified Kim Philby), the late Jack Fishman (a.k.a. Larry Khan), 1920 – 1997.
Vocals: Welsh singer Tom Jones (Thomas John Woodward).

Help Yourself.

Love is like candy on a shelf,
You want to taste, then help yourself.
The sweetest things are there for you
Help yourself take a few,
That’s what I want you to do.
We’re always told repeatedly,
The very best in life is free,
And if you want to prove it’s true,
Baby, I’m telling you,
This is what you should do.
Just help yourself to my lips, to my arms,
Just say the word and they’re yours.
Just help yourself to the love in my heart,
Your smile has opened up the door.
The greatest wealth that exists in the world,
Could never buy what I can give.
Just help yourself to my lips, to my arms,
And then let’s really start to live.
Alright, (hahahaha, yeah).
My heart has love enough for two,
More than enough for me and you.
I’m rich with love, a millionaire,
I’ve so much, it’s unfair,
Why don’t you take a share.
Just help yourself to my lips, to my arms,
Just say the word and they’re yours.
Just help yourself to the love in my heart,
Your smile has opened up the door.
The greatest wealth that exists in the world,
Could never buy what I can give.
So help yourself to my lips, to my arms,
And then let’s really start to live.
Just help yourself to my lips, to my arms,
Just say the word and they’re yours.
Just help yourself to the love in my heart.

If I Could Turn Back Time.

If I Could Turn Back Time.

Well you can tomorrow morning as residents of Co. Tipperary will “turn back time” themselves, thus enjoying an extra hour in bed, when clocks are put back one hour at 2:00am (Sun, October 27th, 2024), ending summertime officially until Sunday March 30th 2025 next.

Vocals: American singer, actress, and television personality Cher (Cherilyn Sarkisian).
Lyrics: American songwriter; two Golden Globe Award winner; Emmy Award winner; Grammy Award winner and Academy Honorary Award winner, Diane Eve Warren.

If I Could Turn Back Time.

If I could turn back time.
If I could find a way,
I’d take back those words that have hurt you,
And you’d stay.
I don’t know why I did the things I did,
I don’t know why I said the things I said,
Pride’s like a knife, it can cut deep inside.
Words are like weapons, they wound sometimes.
I didn’t really mean to hurt you,
I didn’t wanna see you go,
I know I made you cry, but baby,
If I could turn back time,
If I could find a way,
I’d take back those words that have hurt you,
You’d stay.
If I could reach the stars,
I’d give ’em all to you.
Then you’d love me, love me,
Like you used to do.
(If I could turn back time)
My world was shattered, I was torn apart,
Like someone took a knife and drove it deep in my heart.
When you walked out that door,
I swore that I didn’t care,
But I lost every thing, darlin’, then and there.
Too strong to tell you I was sorry,
Too proud to tell you I was wrong,
I know that I was blind, and darlin,’
If I could turn back time,
If I could find a way,
I’d take back those words that have hurt you,
And you’d stay.
If I could reach the stars,
I’d give ’em all to you,
Then you’d love me, love me,
Like you used to do, ohh,
If I could turn back time.
(If I could turn back time.)
If I could turn back time.
(If I could turn back time.)
If I could turn back time, ohh baby,
I didn’t really mean to hurt you.
I didn’t wanna see you go.
I know I made you cry,
But ohh,
If I could turn back time.
If I could find a way,
I’d take back those words that have hurt you.
If I could reach the stars,
I’d give them all to you,
Then you’d love me, love me,
Like you used to do.
If I could turn back time,
(Turn back time.)
If I could find a way, (Find a way.)
Then maybe, maybe, maybe you’d stay.
(If I could reach the stars…….)

I Would Like To See You Again.

I Would Like To See You Again.

Vocals: The late, great American country music singer, songwriter, Don Williams [Donald Ray Williams] (1939 – 2017).
Lyrics: The late American songwriter Charlie Craig (1938 – 2011).

I Would Like To See You Again.

I was sittin’ here thinkin’ about some old times,
Some old times, some old friends,
And suddenly it came across my mind,
I would like to see you again.
Remember how we used to walk and talk,
Walk and talk, holdin’ hands,
We said we loved each other I recall,
We made a lot of future plans.
But the years have come and gone,
And a whole lot has happened since then,
But tonight your memory’s awful strong on my mind,
And I would like to see you again.
It’s funny how a feeling will come back,
It’ll come on back, make you blue,
Cause I just saw a picture in my mind,
Bout a time, of me and you.
But the years have come and gone,
And a whole lot has happened since then,
And tonight your memory’s awful strong on my mind,
And I would like to see you again.
Yes the years have come and gone,
And a whole lot has happened since then,
But tonight your memory’s awful strong on my mind,
And I would like to see you again.

A Song For A Sunday.

What A Wonderful World.

Lyricists: American record producer Bob Thiele and American songwriter and arranger George David Weiss.
Vocals: American trumpeter and vocalist Louis Daniel Armstrong (nicknamed “Satchmo”).

What A Wonderful World.

I see trees of green, red roses too.
I see them bloom for me and you,
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world
.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white,
The bright blessed days, the dark sacred nights,
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world
.

The colors of the rainbow,
So pretty in the sky,
Are also on the faces,
Of people going by.
I see friends shaking hands, saying, “How do you do?”
They’re really saying, “I love you”
.

I hear babies cry, I watch them grow.
They’ll learn much more,
Than I’ll ever know,
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world
.
Yes, I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.
