The Angels Cried
The Angels Cried
Composer(s): Harley Allen; Debbie Nims
Performer(s): Alan Jackson & Alison Krauss; Albert & Gage; Bonnie Wixom
They came from near, they came from far
Following a distant star to where He lay
Not being sure of what it meant
But knowing it was Heaven sent
They made their way
And the creatures gathered 'round
And didn't make a sound
And the angels cried
The angels knew what was to come
The reason God had sent His son from up above
It filled their hearts with joy to see
And knowing of His destiny
Came tears of love
And the creatures gathered 'round
And didn't make a sound
And the angels cried
I've often thought about that night
And wondered if they realised that star so bright
Was sent to tell all the land
The Son of God would soon become
The Son of Man
And the creatures gathered 'round
And didn't make a sound
And the angels cried
And the Angels Cried
And the Angels Cried

Seasons Of The Heart
Seasons Of The Heart
Composer(s): John Denver
Performer(s): John Denver; Ryan & Aimee Engelbrecht; Red Hurley
Of course we have our differences
You shouldn’t be surprised
It’s as natural as changes
In the seasons and the skies
Sometimes we grow together
Sometimes we drift apart
A wiser man than I might know
The seasons of the heart
And I’m walking here beside you
In the early evening chill
A thing we’ve always loved to do
I know we always will
We have so much in common
So many things we share
That I can’t believe my heart
When it implies that you’re not there
Love is why I came here in the first place
Love is now the reason I must go
Love is all I ever hoped to find here
Love is still the only dream I know
So I don’t know how to tell you
It’s difficult to say
I never in my wildest dreams
Imagined it this way
But sometimes I just don’t know you
There’s a stranger in our home
When I’m lying right beside you
Is when I’m most alone
And I think my heart is broken
There’s an emptiness inside
So many things I’ve longed for
Have so often been denied
Still I wouldn’t try to change you
There’s no one that’s to blame
It’s just some things that mean so much
And we just don’t feel the same
Love is why I came here in the first place
Love is now the reason I must go
Love is all I ever hoped to find here
Love is still the only dream I know
True love is still the only dream I know

Goodbye Emil, my trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and ABC's
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees
Goodbye Emil, it's hard to die
When all the bird's are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Pretty girls are everywhere
I wish we could both be there
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills we could climb were just seasons out of time
Goodbye Papa, please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
You tried to show me right from wrong
But too much wine and too much song
Wonder how I got along
Goodbye Papa, it's hard to die
When all the bird's are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Little kids are everywhere
Think of me and I'll be there
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
Goodbye Francoise, my trusted wife
Without you I'd had a lonely life
You cheated lots of times with them
But I forgave you in the end
Though your lover was my friend
Goodbye Francoise, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With your lovers everywhere
Just be careful, I'll be there
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach
Goodbye Michelle, my little one
You gave me joy and helped me find the sun
And every time when I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground

Slide on over, baby, underneath this mistletoe
Here's a toast to us together
Let me wrap you in this bow
I'm in the Christmas spirit
No, this one won't be blue
Gonna be the best one ever
And it's all because of you, baby
You're the angel at the top of my tree
Best present anybody ever gave to me
I got it decorated, all lit up, gifts underneath
And you're the angel at the top of my tree
Let's put on that old movie "It's A Wonderful Life"
'Cause curled up by the fire
It sure rings true tonight
Let's make a little heaven
Then a little later on
We'll make a little Love
To that old Bing Crosby song, baby
You're the angel at the top of my tree
Best present anybody ever gave to me
I got it decorated, all lit up, gifts underneath
But you're the angel at the top of my tree
You're the angel at the top of my tree
Best present anybody ever gave to me
I got it decorated, all lit up, gifts underneath

Adieu l'Émile je t'aimais bien

On a chanté les mêmes vins
On a chanté les mêmes filles
On a chanté les mêmes chagrins
Adieu l'Émile je vais mourir

Je sais que tu prendras soin de ma femme
Je veux qu'on rie
Je veux qu'on danse
Je veux qu'on s'amuse comme des fous
Je veux qu'on rie
Je veux qu'on danse
Quand c'est qu'on me mettra dans le trou
Adieu Curé je t'aimais bien

Car vu que tu étais son confident
Je sais que tu prendras soin de ma femme

Alors que toi tu es bien vivant
Et même plus solide que l'ennui

Mais je prends le train pour le Bon Dieu
Je prends le train qui est avant le tien
Mais on prend tous le train qu'on peut
Adieu ma femme je vais mourir
C'est dur de mourir au printemps tu sais
Mais je pars aux fleurs les yeux fermés ma femme
Car vu que je les ai fermés souvent
Je sais que tu prendras soin de mon âme
Je veux qu'on rie
Je veux qu'on danse
Je veux qu'on s'amuse comme des fous
Je veux qu'on rie
Je veux qu'on danse
Quand c'est qu'on me mettra dans le trou

why cross 3 thousand miles of rolling waves

that's where I know I'll find him resting
so I'm here, I'm searching for his grave
Beside each cross mark here all around me
I'll lean down and gladly pray a prayer
for all of their loved ones
back home across the ocean
whose heart like mine is buried over here

Of every childlike heart tonight?

Give me the laughter
I'm gonna choose to keep
Another tender Tennessee Christmas
The only Christmas for me
Where the love circles around us
Like the gift around our tree
Well I know there's more snow
Up in Colorado
Than my roof will ever see
But a tender Tennessee Christmas
Is the only Christmas for me
Every now and then
I got a wanderin' urge to see
Maybe California
Maybe tinsel town's for me
There's a parade there
We'd have it made there
Bring home a tan for New Year's Eve
Sure sounds exciting
Awfully inviting
Still I think I'll gonna keep
Another tender Tennessee Christmas
The only Christmas for me
Where the love circles around us
Like the gift around our tree
Well they say in L.A.
It's a warm holiday
It's the only place to be
But a tender Tennessee Christmas
Is the only Christmas for me

The city's decorated up for Christmas
All the stores are open late tonight
People hurry through the frozen streets

Every window has a thousand lights
Every soul has a need for peace
I take a walk...
There's a star that still outshines the night
You can find it if you close your eyes
And see the light
Take a walk through Bethlehem
Come and kneel before the lamb
Good news for every man
Walk through Bethlehem
Every night another TV special
Merchants counting down the shopping days
But something's missing underneath the tree
I take a walk...
'Cause every heart longs for more than tinsel
Something more than just a holiday
Come and celebrate the baby King
Let's take a walk
You don't have to travel anywhere
Faith and hope and love will bring you there
Bring you there
Take a walk through Bethlehem
Come and kneel before the lamb
Good news for every man
Walk through Bethlehem

Sylvia's Christmas Song
Sylvia's Christmas Song
Composer(s): Karl Collan; Zachary Topelius
Och nu ar det jul i min alskade Nord
ar det jul i vart hjarta ocksa?
Och ljusen de brinna pa ragade bord
och barnen i vantan sta
Dar borta i taket dar hanger han an
der bur, som har fangat min trognaste van
och sangen har tystnat i fangelseborg
o, vem har ett hjarta for songarens sorg?
Och strala, du klaraste stjarna i skyn
blicka ned pa min alskade Nord!
Och nar du gar bort under himmelens bryn
valsigna min fadernejord!
I blommande varar pa gyllene strand
var finnes ett land som mitt fadernesland?
For dig vill jag sjunga on Karlek och var
sa lange din Sylvias hjarta slar
