A STILL SMALL VOICE (COME TO ME) - Bruce William Davies (MCPS/PRS)
She was out there on her own
Outcast and all alone
Not even her children near her
So full of regret
But the world could not forget
And not a soul would hear her
She was not the first one
And she sure won’t be the last
Searching for her future
She’d blown away her past
Searching for some answers
Something strong and clear
When a still small voice
Whispered softly in her ear
Come to me, come to me
All you who are weak and heavy laden
Come to me, come to me
And I will give you rest
He was just a little guy
Not the kind to catch your eye
Yet everybody knew him
They knew his cheating ways
And how everybody pays
They thought they could see through him
But he was not the first one
And he sure won’t be the last
Afraid of his future
Ashamed of his past
Living with rejection
Living life in fear
And a still small voice
Softly in his ear
Come to me, come to me
All you who are weak and heavy laden
Come to me, come to me
And I will give you rest
I know that I’m a sinner
I know that you are, too
But is God’s purpose served
By me accusing you?
So why not live with love
Instead of preaching fear
And listen for the still small voice
Softly in our ear
Come to me, come to me
All you who are weak and heavy laden
Come to me, come to me
And I will give you rest

WHEN I SURVEY THE WONDROUS CROSS -Words - Isaac Watts, Music – Edward Miller, Arrangement - Bruce William Davies
When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of Glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
Save in the Cross of Christ my God,
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His blood.
See from His head, His hands, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down,
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?
Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were an offering far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.

Don't Stop (Believin')

DON'T STOP BELIEVING - Bruce William Davies (MCPS/PRS)
If you're losin' yourself and all that you own
And you're feelin' inside, you're always alone
Don't stop believin', don't stop receivin'
From your Lord, from your Lord.
When your world's in a mess and you've done your best
You don't know where to turn, your inside is burnin'
Don't stop believin', don't stop receivin'
From your Lord, from your Lord.
Like a big ship, it's tiny in an ocean
Like a mountain, it's small against the sky
God's love is big enough to find you
And His love for you will never, ever die
If your trouble are large and you can't face them all
There's an answer for you, He will hear when you call
Don't stop believin', don't stop receivin'
From your Lord, from your Lord.
Like a big ship, it's tiny in an ocean
Like a mountain, it's small against the sky
God's love is big enough to find you
And His love for you will never, ever die
When you're losin' yourself and all you possess
Just open your heart, He's ready to bless
You need His blessing, you need His guiding hand
Need His love, take his love.

Amazing Grace

AMAZING GRACE - Words by John Newton, Music trad. arr. Bruce William Davies
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
‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
‘Tis grace that brought me safe thus far
And grace shall lead me home
The Lord has promised good to me
His Word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
Yes when this flesh and heart shall fail
And mortal life shall cease
I shall possess within the veil
A life of joy and peace
When we’ve been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun

He Rose Again

HE ROSE AGAIN - Sandra & Bruce Davies and St. Ninian’s Parish Church Sunday School, Glenrothes (MCPS/PRS)
We break the bread, we drink the wine
To celebrate that He rose again
He rose again, He rose again
Sing Hallelujah for He rose again
With a kiss He was betrayed
The crowd were asked, the choice was made
A crown of thorns forced on His head
With a cross on His back to the hill was led
We break the bread, we drink the wine…
High on the cross for all to see
Dying there He set us free
A notice nailed above His head
“King of the Jews”, was what it said
We break the bread, we drink the wine…
Taken from the cross before the night
Wrapped in linen cloth, so white
Sealed in the tomb by one of His friends
But that’s not where the story ends!
We break the bread, we drink the wine…
The stone had gone, the tomb was bare
The body of Christ no longer there
“Why look for the living among the dead?
He is risen!” the angels said
We break the bread, we drink the wine…

Maisie's Song

MAISIE’S SONG - Bruce William Davies (MCPS/PRS)
Wooden floor, a musty smell
Little brown chair I remember well
Crayoned pictures upon the wall
I can’t forget that little hall
And the lady who seemed forever old
Living the stories she always told
Of love that still goes on and on
In the place where Auntie Maisie’s gone
Collection box upon the stage
A piano from another age
Little books, with pages torn
Some were missing, some just worn
And the lady who seemed forever old
Living the stories she always told
Of love that still goes on and on
In the place where Auntie Maisie’s gone
I didn’t understand it all way back then
When we sang about Zacheus and Fishers of Men
But the seeds were sown in that little room
And I remember when…every now and again
Sometimes I wander, sometimes I stray
Sometimes I’ve been so far away
Sometimes in deep despair and gloom
My thoughts return to that little room
And the lady who seemed forever old
Living the stories she always told
Of love that just goes on and on
In the place where Auntie Maisie’s gone
Yes that lady who seemed forever old
Living the stories she always told
Still makes me want to journey on
To the place where Auntie Maisie’s gone

FOR THE ONES THAT YOU LOVE - Bruce William Davies (MCPS/PRS)
He’s on the road
Twelve hours every day
He can’t help believin’
He’s workin’ his life away
He’d rather be fishin’
But when push comes to shove
You do the things you have to
For the ones that you love
Laundry and cleaning
The school run and more
A job that drains her
She asks “What’s it for?”
But the answer is simple
For when push comes to shove
You do the things you have to
For the ones that you love
The ones that you love
The ones that you love
You do the things you have to
For the ones that you love
Nappies/Daipers and nosebleeds
Tantrums and tears
Dentists and doctors
Irrational fears
You’re there when they need you
For when push comes to shove
You do the things you have to
For the ones that you love
The ones that you love
The ones that you love
You do the things you have to
For the ones that you love
A long time ago
Before you and I
A man left his home
In the sweet bye and bye
He hung on a cross
For when push comes to shove
You do the things you have to
For the ones that you love
The ones that you love
The ones that you love
You do the things you have to
For the ones that you love
The ones that you love
The ones that you love
You do the things you have to
For the ones that you love

I HAVE FOUND PEACE - Alan Sorensen
When the rest of the world is chasing the air
And news brings disaster and death everywhere
My eyes may be shocked, but my mind isn’t there
I have found peace
And each time I arrange to meet you, I’m late
Forgive me, my Father for having you wait
Still I’m reassured, it’s never too late
I have found peace
Yes I have found peace when I take the time
To leave the world’s noise far behind in my mind
And be one with you, your love touching mine
I have found peace
Yes I have found peace when I take the time
To leave the world’s noise far behind in my mind
And be one with you, your love touching mine
I have found peace
My heart knows that yours is just a prayer away
And this void of silence will always stay
Until I can cross it and share each new day
………………..
I have found peace

SONG FOR THE SEASON - Bruce William Davies (MCPS/PRS.)
Fancy lights, busy streets, crowds everywhere
Christmas is coming and there's snow in the air
Party time, bells that chime, a time of good cheer
Thank goodness it happens just once a year
Is this your Christmas? Is this what you know?
A song for the season, tickets for the show
A sock full of presents, cans in the bin
And still no room at the inn.
If we could feel as Mary felt when she had God inside
Would we feel really humble, would we fill up with pride?
Well we can feel the way she did, He's inside us now
And waiting to grow if our hearts will allow.
So what is your Christmas? What do you know?
A song for the season, tickets for the show
A sock full of presents, cans in the bin
And still no room at the inn.
Can't you hear a voice calling, you’ve heard it before before.
Come in from the darkness to light evermore.
Take the message of Christmas, don't miss it again,
He's the way, the truth and the life for all men
Enjoy your Christmas, enjoy all you've got
But please don't forget to give Jesus a thought
It was cold in the stable, is He waiting there still?
Let Him into your Christmas if you will
So what is your Christmas, what will you know?
A song for the season, tickets for the show
A sock full of presents, cans in the bin
And still no room at the inn?

IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER - Christina Rosetti/Gustav Holst/Arr. Bruce William Davies (MCPS/PRS)
In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water like a stone
Snow had fallen snow on snow
Snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
Long ago
Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him
Nor Earth sustain
Heaven and earth shall flee away
When He comes to reign
In the bleak midwinter
A stable place sufficed
The Lord God Almighty
Jesus Christ
Angels and Archangels
May have gathered there
Cherubim and seraphine
Thronged the air
But His mother only
In her maiden bliss
Worshiped the Beloved
With a mother’s kiss
What can I give Him
Poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd,
I would bring a lamb
If I were a wise man
I would do my part
Yet what I can, I give Him
Give my heart
Yes what I can, I give Him
Give my heart
