Intro: B E

Just like old times you were here last night
And gone were my sorrows and cares
Just like old times you were gone and I
Had a dream of an old love affair

I was alone in the darkness my dear
Many dreams ago you left me there
Sunlight told me you were gone and I
Had a dream of an old love affair

Life’s been so empty since you’ve been gone
I love you with all of my heart
Heaven was mine when you smiled last night
And said we could make a new start

I was alone in the darkness my dear
Many dreams ago you left me there
Sunlight told me you were gone and I
Had a dream of an old love affair

Fiddle Instrumental: E B E

Dobro Instrumental: E B E

I was alone in the darkness my dear
Many dreams ago you left me there
Sunlight told me you were gone and I
Had a dream of an old love affair

B E (to end)
Had a dream of an old love affair

PRAISE THE LORD (Bowman – Tyminski)
performed by Dan Tyminski on CARRY ME ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN (2000)

KEY OF F: capo 3, play in D

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, and bless His holy name
Cause He don’t ever change
He’s the one, He’s the one, it don’t matter what you done
He wants to love you just the same

When old trouble comes along, and temptation is growing strong
Take my hand dear Lord I pray
Hear my cry, hear my plea, have mercy on me
And let Your love show me the way

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, and bless His holy name
Cause He don’t ever change
He’s the one, He’s the one, it don’t matter what you done
He wants to love you just the same

As I labor in this land, be my strength, help me stand
Lead me on the narrow way
Many loved ones now are gone, but I know I’m coming home
Soon we’ll all be there to say

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, and bless His holy name
Cause He don’t ever change
He’s the one, He’s the one, it don’t matter what you done
He wants to love you just the same

Faith in you is why I sing, trust is quite another thing

It took some time, but I finally learned ooh it aint no gift it's gotta be earned.

3rd gear!
Intro G G7 C G G Em D G
I’m a man, flesh and blood
Of just one thing I’m sure
I was made from the dust
And to dust I will return.
But the dust aint the end
Cause in my heart I know
I’m spirit and so
To the Fathers home I go.

Chorus:
Be assured, be assured
If your trusting in the Lord
All who call on His name
Are gonna live forever more.

fiddle break X2

Oh I know, oh I know
Cause the spirit lives in me
The spirit of the son
Says a son I’ll ever be.
Well I can be assured
That my home is up on high
I found it in the word
Of the one who’ll never lie.

Chorus: then banjo break X2

If you live, if you live
In the darkness and the fear
There is love from above
He will wash away the tears.
Pouring love into you
The spirit of the son
Can flow through you
Into every one.

Chorus: X2 “Not the end”!!

Intro:

Verse1:

He was just a little farm lad, so busy he’d play
With his little playmate outside the gate.
He stopped to watch a truck that was parking next door
At the home of his tiny playmate.

Chorus1:

Then he saw his daddy watchin’ too
As the men swiftly walked to the cottage door
He knew they were strangers that came from the town
Men he had never seen before.

Break1: Same as intro

Verse2:

They soon went to work when he heard his daddy say,
“Our neighbours are moving today”
”Oh No!” he cried, “Dear God don’t let it be,
They can’t take my sweetheart away!”

Chorus2:

I know dad you don’t understand
How a heart so young could conceive a plan
I’m only seven now but it’s just like you say
Daddy someday I’ll be a man.

Break2

Verse3:

The man who owns the farm where your playmates do live
He told me it’d have to be this way.
For when your time has come and your work is all done
That’s why they are moving today.

Chorus3:

Let us buy the farm so they can stay
And give them all the toys that your Santa gave
And give them all my pennies in my little piggy bank
Pennies that my darlin’ helped me save.
