Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer lyrics - Charlotte Church

Guide me O Thou great Redeemer

Pilgrim through this barren land.

I am weak but Thou art mighty

Hold me with thy powerful hand.

Bread of heaven

Feed me now and evermore

Open now the crystal fountain

Whence the healing streams do flow,

Let the fiery cloudy pillar

Lead me all my journey though,

Strong Deliverer

Be Thou still my strength and shield.

When I tread the verge of Jordan

Bid my fears subside

Death of death,

And hell's destruction,

Land me safe on Canaan's side,

Songs of praises

I will ever give to thee.

The Holy City lyrics - Charlotte Church

Last night I lay asleeping

There came a dream so fair,

I stood in old Jerusalem

Beside the temple there

I heard the children singing

And ever as they sang,

Methought the voice of Angels

From Heaven in answer rang

"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!

Lift up you gates and sing,

Hosanna in the highest.

Hosanna to your King!"

And then methought my dream was chang'd

The streets no longer rang

Hush'd were the glad Hosannas

The little children sang

The sun grew dark with mystery,

The morn was cold and chill

As the shadow of a cross arose

Upon a lonely hill

"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!

Hark! How the Angels sing,

Hosanna in the highest,

Hosanna to your King!"

And once again the scene was chang'd

New earth there seem'd to be,

I saw the Holy City

Beside the tideless sea

The light of god was on its streets

The gates were open wide,

And all who would might enter

And no one was denied.

No need of moon or stars by night,

Or sun to shine by day,

It was the new Jerusalem

That would not pass away

"Jerusalem! Jerusalem

Sing for the night is o'er

Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna for evermore!"

Plaisir d'Amour lyrics - Charlotte Church

Plaisir d' amour ne dure qu un moment

Chagrin d amour dure toute la vie

J ai tout quttee pour l ingrate Silvie

Elle me quitte et prend un aute amans

Plaisir d'amour dure qu un moment

Chagrin d amour dudre toute la vie

"Tant que cette eau coulera doucement

Vers ce ruisseau qui borde la prairie

Je t aimerai", me repetait Silvie

L'eau coule encor, elle a change pourtant

Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu un moment

Chagrin d'amour dudre toute la vie 

Pleasure of love lasts only one moment, 

Unhappy love affair lasts all the life. 

I very left for ungrateful Silvie, 

It leaves and takes another amans to me. 

Pleasure of love lasts only one moment, 

Unhappy love affair lasts all the life.

"As long as this water will run gently 

Towards this brook which borders the meadow, 

I will love you", repeated me Silvie. 

Water runs encor, it changed however. 

Pleasure of love lasts only one moment,

Unhappy love affair lasts all the life.

Summertime lyrics - Charlotte Church

Summertime

And de livin is easy

Fish are jumpin

an de cotton is high

oh yo daddy's rich

an yo ma's good lookin

so hush little baby don you cry

One of dese mournins

You goin to rise up singin

Den you'll spread yo wings

An you'll take the sky

But till that mournin

Deres a nothin can harm you

With daddy an mommy standin by.

The Jewel Song lyrics - Charlotte Church

Ah! je ris de me voir 

si belle en ce miroir, 

Ah! je ris de me voir 

si belle en ce miroir, 

Est-ce toi, Marguerite, 

est-ce toi? 

Reponds-moi, reponds-moi, 

Reponds, reponds, reponds vite! 

Non! Non! ce n'est plus toi! 

Non...non, 

ce n'est plus ton visage;

C'est la fille d'un roi; 

c'est la fille d'un roi! 

Ce n'est plus toi, 

ce n'est plus toi, 

C'est la fille d'un roi; 

Qu'on salut au passage! 

Ah s'il etait ici! 

S'il me voyait ainsi! 

Comme une demoiselle 

Il me trouverait belle, Ah! 

Comme une demoiselle, 

il me trouverait belle, 

Comme une demoiselle, 

il me trouverait belle! 

Marguerite, Ce n'est plus toi! 

Ce n'est plus ton visage; 

La, ce n'est plus ton visage; 

Qu'on salut au passage! 

Ah, I laugh to see myself 

so beautiful in this mirror,

Ah, I laugh to see myself 

so beautiful in this mirror,

Is it you, Marguerite, 

it is you?

Answer me, answer me,

Respond, respond, respond quickly!

No No! it's no longer you!

No...no, 

it's no longer your face;

It's the daughter of a king,

It's the daughter of a king!

It's no longer you,

It's no longer you,

It's the daughter of a king,

One must bow to her as she passes!

Ah if only he were here!

If he should see me thus

Like a lady

He would find me so beautiful, Ah!

Like a lady, 

he would find me beautiful,

Like a lady, 

he would find me beautiful!

Marguerite, It's no longer you!

it's no longer your face;

Yes, it's no longer your face;

One must bow to her as she passes!

Voi Che Sapete lyrics - Charlotte Church

Tell me what love is, what can it be

What is this yearning burning me?

Can I survive it, will I endure?

This is my sickness, is there a cure?

First his obsession seizing my brain,

Starting in passion, ending in pain.

I start to shiver, then I'm on fire,

Then I'm aquiver with seething desire.

Who knows the secret, who holds the key?

I long for something - what can it be?

My brain is reeling, I wonder why;

And then the feeling I'm going to die.

By day it haunts me, haunts me by night.

This tender torment, tinged with delight!

Tell me wht love is, what can it be?

What is this yearning, burning in me?

What is this yearning, burning in me?

What is this yearning, burning in me?

She Moved Through The Fair lyrics - Charlotte Church

My young love said to me "My mother won't mind

And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind"

And she stepped away from me and this she did say,

"It will not be long, love, till our wedding day"

She stepped away from me, and she went thro' the fair.

And fondly I watched her move here and move there.

And then she went homeward with one star awake,

As the swan in the evening moves over the lake.

Last night she came to me, she came softly in,

So softly she came that her feet made no din.

And she laid her hand on me, and this she did say

"It will not be long love, till our wedding day"

Songs My Mother Taught Me lyrics - Charlotte Church

Songs my mother taught me

In the days long vanish'd

Seldom from her eyelids

Were the teardrops banish'd

Now I teach my children

Each melodious measure

oft the tears are flowing

oft they flow from my mem'ry treasure

If Thou Art Near lyrics - Charlotte Church

If Thou art near when life is closing

All joyful shall I fall asleep,

Be Thou with me as I awaken,

And claim my soul when I arise

If Thou art near when life is closing,

All joyful shall I fall asleep,

Ah, how serene, were thus my passing,

Thy tender hand upraised in blessing

Would sanctify my slumber deep

Be Thou with me, as I awaken

And claim my soul when I arise.

The Last Rose Of Summer lyrics - Charlotte Church

Tis the last rose of summer,

Left blooming alone,

All her lovely companions

Are faded and gone.

No flow'r of her kindred

No rosebud is nigh

To reflect back her blushes,

Or give sigh for sigh.

I'll not leave thee, thou lone one,

To pine on the stern,

Since the lovely are sleeping,

Go, sleep thou with them

Thus kindly I'll scatter

Thy leaves o'er the bed,

Where thy mates of the garden

Lie scentless and dead.

So soon may I follow

When friendships decay;

And from love's shining circle

The gems drop away

When true hearts lie wither'd

And fond ones are flow'n

Oh! Who would inhabit

This bleak world alone?
