Ragħaj ta’ ruħi rrid
kontroll ta’ ħajti ntik
Kull fejn tmexxini int, warajk niġi
Kull ma int lissint, li nisma’ jien għażilt
Kull fejn teħodni int, jien immur.
Jekk f’mergħat fil-kwiet teħodni
Jew fejn l-ilma jgelgel pur
O ragħaj ta’ ruħi dejjem ħdejja tkun
Jekk quddiemi tfeġġ muntanja
Jew xi wied fond u mudlam
O ragħaj ta’ ruħi gwida għalija kun.
Shepherd of my soul
I give you full control
Wherever you may lead
TI will follow
I have made the choice
To listen for your voice
Wherever you may lead I will go.
Be it in a quiet pasture
Or by a gentle stream
The shepherd of my soul is by my side
Should I face a mighty mountain
Or a valley dark and deep
The shepherd of my soul
Will be my guide.
More than I could hope or dream of
You have poured your favour on me
One day in the house of God is
Better than a thousand days
In the world.
Ref:
So blessed, I can’t contain it
So much, I’ve got to give it away
Your love taught me to live now
You are more than enough for me.
Lord, you’re more than enough for me
Lord, you’re more than enough for me.
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I’m found
No longer blind, I see.
I have chosen to run this race
Determined to reach the end
I have forgotten it’s only by grace
That I can see your face.
Ref:
Only by grace the eagles fly
By that same grace
You’ll lift me high
I lift up my hands to you
It’s you alone
Who can show me the way
The way to the Father’s throne.
O I’ve tried to walk alone
It was to no avail
But when all’s been said and done
I know that I’m too frail.
Ref:
Only by grace the eagles fly
By that same grace
You’ll lift me high
I lift up my hands to you
It’s you alone
Who can show me the way
Only by grace can I see
That I can be all I’m called to be
I lift up my eyes to you
It’s you alone
Who will lead me away
Far away from my sin.
O Qalb ħanina li mill-jasar fdejt
Lill-bnedmin kollha li bla tarf ħabbejt,
Kebbes lil qlubna, miġburin f’riġlejk,
Bin-nar ta’ mħabbtek sabiex nersqu lejk!
Ġesù, ħallina niġu ħdejk fis-skiet
Biex aħna nieklu
Mill-Ħobż tas-smewwiet,
Fik biss il-ħajja, fik id-dawl u l-ġid,
Inti ta’ qlubna l-egħżeż Qalb u s-Sid!’
Xi ġmiel, xi ħlewwa meta fuq l-Artal
Int tistenniena minn ġo dik id-Dar,
O Qalb ħanina, għid xi tridna ntuk;
Din qalbna ċkejkna sabiex inħobbuk.
O ras ta’ Kristu mbierka
Imdawra bl-eħrex xewk
Bis-swat u l-bżieq midruba
Jaħasra, kemm baxxewk!
Kif mietet dik il-ħeġġa
Mill-ħarsa ta’ għajnejk
Kif għebu l-ħajr u l-glorja
Fil-ħofor ta’ ħaddejk!
Dan ġismi, laħam dgħajjef
Ħallini nsallbu qrib
Biex fija tkompli l-fidwa
Mibdija fis-salib.
U meta jkun imnaddaf
Ħallini nkompli nżid
Fost ħuti din is-saltna
Ta’ mħabba, barka u ġid.
O ragħaj ta’ ħniena kbira
Nitolbok tinsinix
Jekk qatt nitbiegħed minnek
Nintilef tħallinix.
U meta l-mewt iżżurni
Nitolbok ejja qrib
Sabiex din l-art inħalli
Imgħannaq mas-salib.
Hawn qed nistenna
Ħaddanni fik Mulej
Qalbi tixxennaq għalik.
Żommni fi mħabbtek
Ressaqni aktar lejk
Biex nagħraf iżjed lil Ġesù.
Rit:
Din ħajti ntik, o Mulej għix fija
Bħall-ajkla ntir, u nogħla lejk
Nistrieħ f’idejk.
Here I am waiting, abide in me I pray
Here I am longing for You
Hide me in your love
Bring me to my knees
May I know Jesus more and more.
Ref:
Come live in me
All my life take over
Come breathe in me
And I will rise on eagle’s wings.
I stand before you, Lord
And give you all my praise
Your love is all I need
Jesus, you’re all I need.
My life belongs to you
You gave your life for me
Your grace is all I need
Jesus, you’re all I need.
Hold me in your arms
Never let me go
I wanna spend eternity with you.
Ref:
And now that you’re near
Everything is different
Everything’s so different, Lord
And I know I’m not the same
My life you’ve changed
And I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you.
And I will sing for you always
‘Cause in your presence God
Is where I wanna stay.
O let the son of God enfold you
With his spirit and his love
Let him fill your heart
And satisfy your soul.
O let him have the things that hold you
And his spirit like a dove
Will descend upon your life
And make you whole.
Ref:
Jesus, o Jesus
Come and fill your lambs x2
O come and sing this song of gladness
As your hearts are filled with joy
Lift your hands in sweet surrender
To his name.
O give him all your tears and sadness
Give him all your years of pain
And you’ll enter into life in Jesus’ name. Ref:
