Captain of a Shipwreck
Song and Songwriter: Neil Diamond
I was lost until you found me. You’re the reason for my today. Was tempest tossed, now I sleep soundly. Thanks to you I gladly say, That if your goldmine comes up empty I’ll be there to work the claim. If you’re a captain of a shipwreck I’ll be first mate to your shame. Trust in me to share your burden. Stand by you where I belong, When life brings the day uncertain, I will soothe you with my song. And if your goldmine comes up empty, I’ll be there to work the claim. If you’re a captain of a shipwreck, I’ll be first mate to your shame. Fear no flood in stormy weather. Fear no fire if winds arise. Flesh and blood, I’m yours forever, And forever, it never dies. And if your goldmine comes up empty, I’ll be there to work the claim. If you’re a captain of a shipwreck, I’ll be first mate to your shame. If you’re a captain of a shipwreck, You can find me up on the top deck. You’ll be captain of a shipwreck, I’ll be first mate to your shame.

“In The Garden”
Songwriters: Anne Murray / Tommy West
I come to the garden alone While the dew is still on the roses And the voice I hear, falling on my ear The Son of God discloses And He walks with me And He talks with me And He tells me I am His own And the joy we share as we tarry there None other has ever known He speaks and the sound of His voice Is so sweet the birds hush their singing And the melody that He gave to me Within my heart is ringing And He walks with me And He talks with me And He tells me I am His own And the joy we share as we tarry there None other has ever known I stayed in the garden with Him Though the night all around me is falling But He bids me go, through the voice of woe His voice to me is calling And He walks with me And He talks with me And He tells me I am His own And the joy we share as we tarry there None other has ever known None other has ever known

Be Still and Know that I am God. – [Psalms 46:10]
Be still and know that I’m with you Be still and know that I am here Be still and know that I’m with you Be still, be still, and know When darkness comes upon you And colors you with fear and shame Be still and know that I’m with you And I will say your name If terror falls upon your bed And sleep no longer comes Remember all the words I said Be still, be still, and know And when you go through the valley And the shadow comes down from the hill If morning never comes to be Be still, be still, be still If you forget the way to go And lose where you came from If no one is standing beside you Be still and know I am Be still and know that I’m with you Be still and know I am
