Bread and Fishes
As I went walking one morning in spring,
I met with some travellers in an old country lane,
One was an old man, another a maid,
The third was a young boy who smiled when he said,
Chorus:
With the wind in the willows,
And the birds in the sky,
There's a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie,
We have bread and fishes, and a jug of red wine,
To share on our journey with all of man kind,
I sat down beside them with the flowers around,
And we ate form a mantle spread out on the ground,
They told me of peoples, and prophets and kings,
And all of the one God who knew everything
Chorus
So I asked them to tell me their names and their race,
So I may remember their kindness and grace,
My name it is Joseph, this is Mary my wife,
And this is our young son who is our dear life,
Chorus
We are travelling to Glaston, through England's green lanes,
To hear of men's sorrows, to hear of men's pains,
We travel the wide world, o'er the lands and the seas.
To tell all the people how they can be free,
Chorus
So sadly I left them in that old country lane,
I know that I never shall see them again,
One was an old man, another a maid,
The third was a young boy who smiled when he said,
Chorus
Michael Row the Boat Ashore
Chorus: Michael row the boat ashore, Allejuia
Michael row the boat ashore, Alleluja
Sister help to trim the sail, alleluia (repeat)
Jordan's river is chilly and cold, alleluia (repeat)
Kills the body, but not the soul, alleluia (repeat)
Jordan's river is deep and wide, alleluia (repeat)
Meet my mother on the other side, alleluia (repeat)
Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
Swing low, sweet chariot, coming for to carry me home.
Swing low, sweet chariot, coming for to carry me
home.
I looked over Jordan, and what did I see?
Coming for to carry me home.
A band of angels, coming after me,
coming for to carry me home.
If you get there before I do,
Comin' for to carry me home.
Tell all my friends I'm comin' too.
Comin' for to carry me home
The brightest day that I ever saw,
Comin' for to carry me home,
When Jesus washed my sins away,
Comin' for to carry me home!
