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
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
CHORUS
Originally recorded by Amy Grant
Behind the Song:
"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)
