Danny Boy
Oh danny boy. then pipes
the pysis are calling
From glen to glen and
down the mtnside
The Summers gone and
all the roses falling
Itys you its you must
go and I must
bide But come ye
back when summers
in the meadows or when
the valley's hushed &
white with snow
Its I'll be here in
sunshine or in
shadow. Oh Danny Boy
Oh Danny Boy I love
you so. But when
ye come and all the
flowers are dying
if I am dead as dead
I well may be. ye'll
come and find the

place where I am lying
and kneel and say
an arie there for me
and I shall hear
tho soft you tread
above me and o're
my grave will
warmer, sweeter be
for you will bend &
tell me that you
love me and I shall
sleep in peace until
you come to me
Repeat: Its I'll
be here in sunshine
etc.

No One Ever Cared For Me Like
Jesus
I would love to tell
you what I think of Jesus
since I found Him my
friend
So strong and true I would
tell you how He changed my
life completely
He did something that no
other friend could do.
Chorus
No one ever cared for
me like Jesus
Theres no other friend
so kind as He
No one else could take
the sin and darkness
from me
O how much He cared
for me.
