Susan Boyle & Daniel O'Donnell Sing Our Lady of Knock

++

Fr. Bill’s CD Lyrics

Paintbrush in the Green: (Silent Mother) Lady of Knock

(This one’s truly Irish because Dana wrote it! I composed the little intro—which becomes a descant—while in Ireland a few years back!)

Silent Mother, Blessed Virgin, Queen of Angels
Heart of love so sweet
You came to comfort, Holy Lady
Now you smile on every pilgrim gathered at your feet!
There were people of all ages gathered round the gable walls
Poor and humble men and women, little children that you called
We are gathered here before you and our hearts are just the same
Filled with joy at such a vision as we bless your name
Golden Rose, Queen of Ireland
All my cares and troubles cease
As I kneel with love before you
Lady of Knock, my Queen of Peace
O your message was unspoken, but the truth in silence lies
So I gaze upon your vision and the truth I’ve tried to find
Here you stand with John the teacher and with Joseph at your side
And I see the Lamb of God on the altar glorified
Golden Rose, Queen of Ireland
All my cares and troubles cease
As I kneel with love before you
Lady of Knock, my Queen of Peace
And the Lamb will conquer
And the woman clothed with the sun
Will shine her light on everyone
Yes the Lamb will conquer
And the woman clothed with the sun
Will shine her light on everyone!
Golden Rose, Queen of Ireland
All my cares and troubles cease
As I kneel with love before you
Lady of Knock, my Queen of Peace
add into as DESCANT…)
Lady of Knock, my Queen of Peace!

Susan Boyle - Amazing Grace



Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me I once was lost but now am found was blind, but now I see t'was grace that taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relieved how precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed through many dangers, toils, and snares I have already come t'is grace that brought me safe thus far and grace will lead me home when we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun we've no less days to sing God's praise than when we first begun.

Susan Boyle - Unchained Melody - Strictly Come Dancing - 2011


Oh, my love my darling I've hungered for your touch are you still mine?
I need your love  I need your love Godspeed your love to me

Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea to the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh 'wait for me, wait for me' 
I'll be coming home wait for me

Susan Boyle sings "The Way We Were" (Barbra Streisand) -1984 -


Can it be that it was all so simple then Or has time rewritten every line If we had the chance to do it all again Tell me would we could we

Memories Light the corners of my mind Misty water color memories Of the way we were

Scattered pictures Of the smiles we left behind Smiles we gave to one another For the way we were

Can it be that it was all so simple then Or has time rewritten every line If we had the chance to do it all again Tell me - Could we? Would we?

Memories May be beautiful and yet What's too painful to remember We simply choose to forget So it's the laughter We will remember Forever we remember The way we were The way we were

(Based from the song of Barbara Streisand)

susan boyle singing- Killing Me Softly


Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly
With his song

oooooo

I heard he sang a good song
I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him and listen for awhile
And there he was this young boy
A stranger to my eyes

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly
With his song

I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud
I pray that he would finish
But he just kept right on

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly
With his song

He sang as if he knew me
In all my dark despair
And then he looked right through me as if I was not there
And he just kept on singing,
Singing clear and strong

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly
With his song

oooooo
la la la la la la
oooooo
la la laaaaa.
la la la laaaaa

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly
With his song

He was strumming my pain
Yeah he was singing my life
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song

Susan Boyle - Daydream Believer


Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings of the bluebird as she sings
The six o'clock alarm would never ring
But it rings and I rise wipe the sleep out of my eyes
The shavin' razor's cold, and it stings

Cheer up, sleepy Jean, oh what can it mean
To a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?

You once thought of me as a white knight on his steed
Now you know how happy I can be
Oh, and our good times start and end without dollar one to spend
But how much baby do we really need?

Cheer up, sleepy Jean, oh what can it mean
To a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?
Cheer up, sleepy Jean, oh what can it mean
To a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?

Cheer up, sleepy Jean, oh what can it mean
To a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?
Cheer up, sleepy Jean, oh what can it mean
To a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?

Cheer up, sleepy Jean, oh what can it mean
To a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?

Susan Boyle - In Susan's Own Words

Susan Boyle Up The Mountain


Up To The Mountain lyrics
Songwriters: Griffin, Patricia J.

I went up to the mountain because you asked me to
Up over the clouds to where the sky was blue
I could see all around me everywhere
I could see all around me everywhere

Sometimes I feel like I've never been nothing but tired
And I'll be walking till the day I expire
So sometimes I just lay me down, no more can I do
But then I go on again because you ask me to

Some days I look down afraid, afraid I will fall
And though the sun shines I see nothing, nothing at all
Then I hear your, your sweet voice, ooh
Come and then go, come and then go
Lord, telling me softly you love me so

Susan Boyle ~ "Both Sides Now" & Interview ~ The View (4 Nov 11)



Rows and flows of angel hair and ice cream
Castles in the air and feathered canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun

They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way

I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's clouds illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away

I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say, "I love you", right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus
Crowds, I've looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting
Strange, they shake their heads
They say I've changed
Something's lost but something's
Gained in living every day

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose, and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all

Susan Boyle - The End of the World



The End Of The World lyrics
Why does the sun go on shining?
Why does the sea rush to the shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world
'Cause you don't love me anymore?

Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when I lost your love

I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand, no I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does

Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said goodbye

Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said goodbye

SUSAN BOYLE - Susan Boyle "Mad World"



All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, going no where

The tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow

No tomorrow, o tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
In dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday

I want to feel the way that every child should
Sits and listen, sits and listen

I went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me

Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Looked right through me, she looked right through me

And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
In dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world

And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
In dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very

Mad world, sad world, mad world, mad world

Susan Boyle - Return



Return, return to me
Don't leave me here
With nothing but the feeling of falling
Return, return to me
Our memory can hold me in it's arms in the morning
You know with all that I've enjoyed
You were my strength and more
Knowing you're gone but I pray for your
Return, return to me
Don't let me be alone without a hope that your love brings

I know the world sees what it wants to see
But only you knew me
I sing to you and the memories

Return, return to me
Don't let anyone, anything
Come between us

Return
Just promise me
And forever
If I lost anything
Are you forever
This worship break into
Forever

I will pray till you
Return
Return

Susan Boyle - You Have To Be There



Susan Boyle - You Have To Be There
What is it Lord that you want
That I am not seeing?
What in my ignorant prayers
Am I failing to say?
Never before have I questioned the truth of your being
Never once have I dared
Never until toda

All of a tremble
I stand on the edge of confusion
Who is to save me
If into the darkness I fall?
Now that I need more than ever my God to be near me
Do you hear when I call?
Are you there after all?

You have to be there, you have to
My life I have placed in thy keep
And without you I am drifting on a dark and stormy sea
You have to be there, you have to
Without you I’d drown in the deep
Too far, too far from land
The waters drag me down
I reach for your hand

And when I die will throw open his arms to receive me?
Who will forgive me and take me and show me his face?
When I go to my rest, who will watch me and wake me?
When my time comes at last, will you grant me your grace?
I am so small of this Earth, I am nothing without you
Daring to doubt you at all turns a knife in my heart
Little by little I’m losing my way in the shadows
I am losing my hope and the world falls apart

You do have to be there, you have to
My life I have placed in thy keep
And without you I am drifting on a dark and stormy sea
You have to be there, you have to
Without you I’d drown in the deep
Too far, too far from land
The waters drag me down
I reach for your hand

You have to be there, you have to
Too far, too far from land
The waters drag me down

I reach for your hand

Susan Boyle and Barbra Streisand - Cry Me A River



Now you say you're lonely
You cried the long night through
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

You drove me,
Nearly drove me out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember
I remember all that you said
Told me love was to plebeian
Told me you were through with me
And now you say you love me
Well, just prove that you do
Cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

SUSAN BOYLE - SUSAN IN THE WORLD

SUSAN BOYLE - THE EXTRAORDINARY SUSAN

Susan Boyle and Geraldine McQueen



Nothing is so good it lasts eternally, | Perfect situations must go wrong,
But this has never yet prevented me, | Wanting far too much,
For far too long,

Looking back, | I could have played it differently,
Won a few more moments, | Who can tell,
But it took time to understand the man,
Now at least I know | I know him well

Wasn't it good? | (Oh so good)
Wasn't he fine? | (Oh so fine)
Isn't it madness, | He can't be mine?
But in the end | He needs a little bit
More than me, | More security,
He needs his fantasy and freedom,
I know him so well

No-one in your life is with you constantly,
No-one is completely on your side,
And though I'd move my world to be with him,
Still the gap between us is too wide,

Looking back, | (Looking back)
I could have played it differently,
(I could have played it some other way),
Won a few more moments, | Who can tell,
(I was just a little careless)
But I was ever so much younger then,
(Maybe, so much younger then)
Now at least I know | I know him well

Wasn't it good? | (Oh so good)
Wasn't he fine? | (Oh so fine)
Isn't it madness, | He won't be mine?

Didn't I know? | How it would go,
If I knew from the start, | Why am I falling apart?

Wasn't it good | Wasn't he fine? | Isn't it madness, |  He won't be mine?
But in the end, | He needs a little bit | More than me, | More security,
He needs his fantasy and freedom, | I know him so well,
It took time to understand him, | I know him so well.

Susan Boyle - Enjoy the Silence



Enjoy The Silence by Susan Boyle

Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Can't you understand
Oh my little boy

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Word are meaningless
And forgettable

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
