Avalon Album: Another Time, Another Place: Timeless Christian Classics Track: El Shaddai
El Shaddai Lyrics
El Shaddai, El Shaddai El-Elyon na Adonia Age to Age you're still same By the Power of the name El Shaddai, El Shaddai Erkamka Na Adonai I will praise and lift you high El Shaddai
Through your love and through the ram You saved the son of Abraham Through the power of your hand Turned the sea into dry land To the outcast on her knees You were the God who really sees And by might set your children free
Repeat Chorus
Through the years You've made it clear That the time of Christ was near Though the people couldn't see What Messiah ought to be Your most awesome work was done Through the frailty of your son I will praise and lift you high El Shaddai
Repeat Chorus
Originally recorded by Amy Grant
Song Description: "I would refer to Amy Grant as "The Matriarch" of CCM. She has so many great songs that we had to include two! El Shaddai means God Almighty. God is everything and all we will ever need. So much assurance is found in that one name of God." - Melissa Greene (Avalon)
