¡Saludos a Todos!
Acabo de registrar en este forum (despues de muchas fracasos porque no
pude leer la gráfica de seguridad bien). Ya he sacado las letras de muchos
cantos que quise usar y tengo que ofrecer un abrazo de MUCHISIMAS GRACIAS
a las hnas Coca y Sis P. y otros por su ayuda. Yo soy director de la música en
Español para una iglesia de tamaño mediano en Oklahoma con un grupo
chiquito de habla Español.
De veras no soy músico - Yo uso el famoso «Autoharp» y tengo
ayuda de un guitarista y un bajo eléctrico más mi hija como cantante. Aunque
soy puro Gringo (Tejano) uso el Español con algúna facilidad porque lo estudié
aquí en el colegio hace 50 años y tambien en la universidad, vivía en San
Antonio 2 años y en Panamá 22 años. (¡Que VIVA la Crossroads Bible Church!)
Empecé a ser gringo de nuevo a mi regreso aquí Junio de 1998.
Así pueden entender que necesito toda la ayuda que pueda conseguir.

Al momento estoy buscando la letra para una canción de Robin Mark - En Inglés
se llama «Days of Elijah». Podría proveer la letra en Inglés si ayudaría.

Muchísimas gracias por cualquier ayuda.

Did any Spanish words come up for "Give us clean hands"? I've been working
on it but am not happy with it.

Days of Elijah (Key of G)

G C
These are the days of Elijah,
G D G
Declaring the Word of the Lord
G C
And these are the days of Your servant, Moses,
G D G
Righteousness being restored
Bm Em
And though these are the days of great trial,
C Am D
Of famine and darkness and sword
G C
Still we are the voice in the desert, crying,
G D G
"Prepare ye the way of the Lord!"


(Chorus)
G C
Behold, He comes riding on the clouds
G D
Shining like the sun, at the trumpet call
G C
Lift your voice, in the year of jubilee
G D G
For out of Zion's hill salvation comes


These are the days of Ezekiel,The dry bones becoming as flesh
And these are the days of Your servant, David,Rebuilding a temple of
praise
These are the days of the harvest,The fields are as white in the
world
And we are the labourers in Your vineyard,
Declaring the Word of the Lord.


"Here you go and Be Blessed in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ"
God Bless Sis P.

- Amazing Grace

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now I´m found,
Was blind, but now I see.


´Twas 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.
´Twas 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´d first begun.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




- Sublime Gracia

Sublime gracia del Señor
Que un infeliz salvó.
Fui ciego más hoy miro yo
Perdido y Él me halló.


Su gracia me enseñó a temer,
Mis dudas ahuyentó.
¡Oh, cuán precioso fue a mi ser
Al dar mi corazón!


En los peligros o aflicción
Que yo he tenido aquí,
Su gracia siempre me libró,
Y me guiará feliz.


Y cuando en Sion por siglos mil,
Brillando esté cual sol,
Yo cantaré por siempre allí,
Su amor que me salvó.

- Nearer My God To Thee

Nearer, my God to Thee,
Nearer to Thee,
Even though it be a cross,
That raiseth me.
Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my God to Thee,
Nearer, my God to Thee,
Nearer to Thee.


Though, like a wanderer,
The Sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
My rest a stone.
Yet, in my dreams I´d be
Nearer, my God to Thee,
Nearer, my God to Thee,
Nearer to Thee.


There, let the way appear,
Steps unto heaven,
All that Thou send´st to me,
In mercy given.
Angels to beckon me,
Nearer, my God to Thee,
Nearer, my God to Thee,
Nearer to thee.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Cerca de Ti, Señor

Cerca de Ti, Señor,
Quiero morar,
Tu grande, tierno amor,
Quiero gozar.
Llena mi pobre ser,
Limpia mi corazón,
Házme tu rostro ver,
En comunión.


Pasos inciertos doy,
El sol se va,
Más si contigo estoy,
No temo ya.
Himnos de gratitud,
Ferviente cantaré,
Y fiel a ti, Jesús
Siempre seré.


Día feliz veré,
Creyendo en Ti,
En que yo habitaré,
Cerca de Ti.
Mi voz alabará
Tu dulce nombre allí,
Y mi alma gozará
Cerca de Ti.

- What A Friend We Have In Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear,
What a privilege to carry,
Everything to God in prayer.
Oh, what peace we often forfeit,
Oh, what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God, in prayer.


Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.


Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
In His arms He´ll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- Qué Amigo Nos Es Cristo

¡Oh, qué amigo nos es Cristo!
El llevó nuestro dolor,
Y nos manda que llevemos,
Todo A Dios en oración.
¿Vive el hombre desprovisto
De paz, gozo y santo amor?
Esto es porque no llevamos,
Todo a Dios en oración.


¿Vives débil y cargado
De cuidados y temor?
A Jesús, refugio eterno,
Dile todo en oración.
¿Te desprecian tus amigos?
Cuéntaselo en oración.
En sus brazos de amor tierno,
Paz tendrá tu corazón.


Jesucristo es nuestro amigo,
De esto pruebas Él nos dió,
Al sufrir el cruel castigo
Que el culpable mereció.
Y su pueblo redimido
Hallará seguridad,
Fiando en este amigo eterno,
Y esperando en su bondad.

- Jesus Loves Me

Jesus love me, this I know,
For the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to Him belong,
They are weak, but He is strong.


Yes, Jesus loves me (x 3)
The Bible tells me so.


Jesus loves me, He who died
Heaven´s gate to open wide,
He will wash away my sin,
Let His little child come in.


Jesus loves me, he will stay
Close beside me all the way,
Then His little child will take
Up to Heaven, for His dear sake.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- Cristo Me Ama

Cristo me ama, bien lo sé,
Su palbra me hace ver,
Que los niños son de aquel
Quien es nuestro amigo fiel.


Cristo me ama (x3)
La Biblia dice así.


Cristo me ama, pues murió,
Y el cielo me abrió.
Él mis culpas quitará,
Y la entrada me dará.


Cristo me ama, es verdad,
Y me cuida en su bondad,
Cuando muera, si soy fiel
Viviré allá, con Él.

- All To Jesus I Surrender

All to Jesus I surrender,
All to Him I freely give.
I will ever love and trust Him,
In His presence daily live.

I surrender all,
I surrender all.
All to Thee, my blessed Saviour,
I surrender all.

All to Jesus I surrender,
Humbly at His feet I bow.
Worldly pleasures all forsaken,
Take me, Jesus, take me now.

All to Jesus I surrender,
Lord, I give myself to Thee.
Fill me with Thy love and power,
Let Thy blessing fall on me.

All to Jesus I surrender,
Now I feel the sacred flame.
O the joy of full salvation,
Glory, glory to His name.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Todo A Cristo Yo Me Rindo

Todo a Cristo yo me rindo,
Con el fin de serle fiel.
Para siempre quiero amarle,
Y agradarle sólo a Él.

Yo me rindo a Él,
Yo me rindo a Él.
Todo a Cristo yo me entrego,
Quiero serle fiel.

Todo a Cristo yo me rindo,
A sus pies postrado estoy.
Los placeres he dejado,
Y le sigo desde hoy.

Todo a Cristo yo me rindo,
Sí, de todo corazón.
Yo le entrego alma y cuerpo,
Busco hoy su santa unción.

Todo a Cristo yo me rindo,
Siento el fuego de su amor.
¡Oh, qué gozo hay en mi alma!
Gloria, gloria a mi Señor

The Trumpet Of The Lord

When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound
And time shall be no more,
And the morning breaks
Eternal bright and fair.
When the saved of earth shall gather
Over on the other shore,
And the roll is called up yonder,
I´ll be there.

When the roll ... is called up yonder,
When the roll ... is called up yonder,
When the roll ... is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder,
I´ll be there.

On that bright and cloudless morning
When the dead in Christ shall rise,
And the glory of His resurrection share.
When His chosen ones shall gather
To their home beyond the skies,
And the roll is called up yonder,
I´ll be there.

Let us labour for the Master
From the dawn till setting sun.
Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care.
Then, when all of life is over
And our work on earth is done,
And the roll is called up yonder,
I´ll be there.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Cuando La Trompeta Suena

Cuando la trompeta suena
En aquel día final,
Y que el alba eterna
Rompa en claridad.
Cuando las naciones salvas
A sup patria lleguen ya,
Y que sea pasada lista
Allí he de estar.

Cuando allá ... se pase lista,
Cuando allá ... se pase lista,
Cuando allá ... se pase lista,
A mi nombre yo feliz responderé.

En aquel día sin nieblas
En que muerte ya no habrá,
Y su gloria el Salvador impartirá.
Cuando los llamados entren
A su celestial hogar,
Y que sea pasada lista,
Allí he de estar.

Trabajemos por el Maestro
Desde el alba al vislumbrar,
Siempre hablemos de su amor
Y fiel bondad.
Cuando todo aquí finezca
Y nuestra obra cese ya,
Y que sea pasada lista,
Allí he de estar.

Default Clean Hands, Days of Elijah

Many thanks, Sis P. Your eagerness and promptness is a blessing to me.

I have found a couple things that have REALLY helped me in getting the right/appropriate words in song (and sermon) translation, especially where the words are directly from, or paraphrased from scripture. One is a website, www.biblegateway.org which has literally hundreds of versions in dozens of languages, especially English and Spanish. The other is La Bíblia de las Américas (LBLA), translated by the Lockman Foundation and pretty much the equivalent of the New American Standard Bible. This version gives an appropriate amount of "archaism" as in King James or Reina-Valera and is probably the most literal Bible for word study. What I will do is find the words in scripture using a concordance (Strong's, etc) and then find the same passage in LBLA and I am often surprised how well they fit and sound. As always there are more syllables in Spanish than in English, so some editing is almost always required. And if LBLA words clearly won't fit there are several other Spanish versions in Bible Gateway that could also be used.

Are there any others out there that use an autoharp to lead worship?

¡Saludos y abrazos del corazón de los EE UU a todos los hermanos!

I really don't know that song but I found it on a web site called higher Praise
I do agree alot of words do not go well with some of the songs so I try to change them the best I know how I work with some of my worship team here in Calif they are bilingual singers I do sing spanish I can read the word but some words I don't know the meaning and some I do I was raised in a bilingual church were they sang spanish and english and that's how I know some of the songs.

some of the request that are being requested here on this site if they are written in spanish somtimes I don't know what the request in I will guess or ask on this forum if there is any one that knows this songs or interpatations
but keep praying for me that the Lord will give me more understanding of the Language...

Again I'm rejoicing with you and glad you found what you are looking for
PRAISE THE LORD...

GOD BLESS SIS P.

From a link on Bible Gateway I found another link to the Foundation Press which had another link to their bookstore. On this I found a really nice column-by-column NASB/LBLA Bible, leatherbound, on special for $30. The only thing about it that I don't LOVE is that it is fairly fine print. Gotta get some trifocal glasses! This is something that really helps me to come up with the "right" words rather than slang terms, and helps me maintain better familiarity with Spanish rather than lapse into Espanglés.

Default Search Me Oh God (Psalm 139:23-24

Here is a translation I did a few months back that I hope may be helpful to some of you. Sorry, I don't know the author's name but it is NOT the old-time hymn. I guess it is about 5 or 6 years old.

Search Me Oh God

C F C G/B
Search me, oh God and know my heart,
Examíname, oh Dios, y conoce mi corazón

Am Em F G
Try me and know my thoughts.
Pruébame y conoce mis pensamientos

F G C G/B Am
See if there be any wicked way in me,
Y ve si hay perversidad en mí

F G
Lead me in the way,
Y guíame en la senda

F C G Am
Lead me in the way,
guíame en la senda

F G C F2 C
Lead me in the way everlasting.
guíame en la senda eterna.


Exáminame Oh Dios
Salmo 139:23-24

C F C G7
Examíname, oh Dios, y conoce mi corazón

Am Em G7
Pruébame y conoce mis pensamientos

F G7 C G7 Am
Y ve si hay perversidad en mí

F G7
Y guíame en la senda

C Am
guíame en la senda

F G7 C
guíame en la senda eterna.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I notice the chords don't line up right. At least they are in the right order!

¡Bendiciones a todos!

Default Trading my Sorrows - Alternate Version

Here is a different version of "Trading my Sorrows" that we have been using. It was sent to my by my brother Billy (Virgilio) in Panamá (¡Que el Señor le bendiga rrrricamente!). It was easier to sing than some of the versions I have seen and maybe a bit "punchier".

Cambié mi Lamento

Cambié mi lamento
Mi llanto dejé
Ya los deseché
Por el gozo de Dios

Cambié mi tristeza
Cambié mi dolor
Ya los deseché
Por el gozo de Dios

Decimos Sí Señor
Sí Sí Señor.....
¡Amen!

Atribulados, no angustiados,
Perseguidos no alcanzados
Derribados sin destrucción
Bendecidos mucho más
Pues sus promesas fieles son
Su gozo mi fuerza es.

Con la noche la angustia vendrá
Mas su gozo viene con la mañana

Cambié mi lamento
Mi llanto dejé ……….
+++++++++++++++++
Bendiciones a todos,

El Tío

"The Great Divide"

I have run to the ocean
Through the horizon, chased the sun
I've waited for the light to come
And at times I would give up
You have wrapped your loving arms round me
And with your love I'll overcome
You have clothed me when I was weak
You have given unselfishly
Kept me from falling, falling
Everywhere but my knees

You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free

I've been on heaven's doorstep
With the door open, one foot inside
I've cried out “God, give me answers”
“Please hush child, I'll tell you why
You have loved Me when you were weak
You have given unselfishly
Kept you from falling, falling
Everywhere but your knees”

You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
You set me free

Ooh our love is beautiful
Ooh ooh isn't this beautiful?
Child it seems that you have been my everything
Our love is beautiful
Stood by my side while we survive the great divide
Isn't this beautiful?

You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
You set me free
You set me free

Translation:

He corrido al océano
A través del horizonte, perseguí al sol
He esperado que venga la luz
Y en ocasiones cuando me rendiría
Me has envuelto con Tus brazos amorosos
Y con Tu amor venceré
Me has vestido cuando yo era débil
Has dado desinteresadamente
Has evitado que caiga, caiga
En cualquier parte excepto sobre mis rodillas

Me pusiste en libertad
Para vivir mi vida
Te volviste mi razón para sobrevivir la gran separación
Me pusiste en libertad

He estado en el umbral de cielo
Con la puerta abierta, un pie dentro
He clamado “Dios, dame respuestas”
“Por favor calla hijo, te diré por qué:
Me has amado cuando eras débil
Has dado desinteresadamente
Te he guardado de caer, caer
En cualquier parte excepto sobre tus rodillas”

Me pusiste en libertad
Para vivir mi vida
Te volviste mi razón para sobrevivir la gran separación
Me pusiste en libertad
Para vivir mi vida
Te volviste mi razón para sobrevivir la gran separación
Me pusiste en libertad
Me pusiste en libertad

Oh, nuestro amor es hermoso
Oh, oh ¿Verdad que esto es hermoso?
Niño que parece que tú has sido mi todo
Nuestro amor es hermoso
Estuviste a mi lado mientras sobrevivimos la gran separación
¿Verdad que esto es hermoso?

Me pusiste en libertad
Para vivir mi vida
Te volviste mi razón para sobrevivir la gran separación
Me pusiste en libertad
Para vivir mi vida
Te volviste mi razón para sobrevivir la gran separación
Me pusiste en libertad
Para vivir mi vida
Te volviste mi razón para sobrevivir la gran separación
Me pusiste en libertad
Me pusiste en libertad

Interesting! That is a different "Great Divide" than I knew. The one I know is not a Christian song. Can you tell me who did it or the name of the CD, etc?
