Mourning Into Dancing
by Tommy Walker

INTRO RIFF 2 times

CHORUS A (x2):
He's turned my mourning into dancing again, He's lifted my sorrows;
I can't stay silent, I must sing for His joy has come.

INTRO RIFF

VERSE:
When there was once only hurt, He gave His healing hand;
Where there once was only pain, He brought comfort like a friend.

I feel the sweetness of His love piercing my darkness;

I see the bright and morning sun as it ushers in His joyful gladness.


CHORUS A:
He's turned my mourning into dancing again, He's lifted my sorrows;
I can't stay silent, I must sing for His joy has come.


CHORUS B:
You've turned my mourning into dancing again, You've lifted my sorrows;
I can't stay silent, I must sing for Your joy has come.


VERSE:
When there was once only hurt, You gave Your healing hand;
Where there once was only pain, You brought comfort like a friend.

I feel the sweetness of Your love piercing my darkness;
I see the bright and morning sun as it ushers in Your joyful gladness.

CHORUS B:
You've turned my mourning into dancing again, You've lifted my sorrows;
I can't stay silent, I must sing for Your joy has come.


BRIDGE:
Your anger lasts for a moment in time,
But Your favor is here and will be on me
For all my lifetime.


CHORUS A

CHORUS B

INTRO riff three times

This song never fails to lift up my spirit! :)

If I Ain’t Got You
Alicia Keys

Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what's within
And I've been there before
But that life's a bore
So full of the superficial

Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you

Some people search for a fountain
The promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them

Hand me a world on a silver platter
And what good would it be?
With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for me

Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, you, you

Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you

If I ain't got you with me baby
Nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you with me baby
