Amy Grace Poem
(From the musical "On Eagles' Wings." This is the lullaby for Passover night.)
Mother 1:
Be still, my child, go to sleep
The night is dark, but dreams are sweet
My child, take rest from fear and dread
And relish all your dreams instead
Though life is harsh, your dreams can be
As sweet as the world used to be
Be not afraid of any harm
I have you safely in my arms
Mother 2:
Be still, my child, rest your head
You have no need to fear or dread
The One Who has made known His power
Is watching over you this hour
He’s stretching out His mighty arm
To spare your life from Egypt’s harm
He watches over you this night
That you may see the morning light
His promise surely will come true
Tonight He’s passing over you

Amy Grace Poem
(From the musical "On Eagles' Wings." This song was written with my sister Faith Alexis.)
No, He cannot think I would deserve
To have His eye upon me
Why would He stoop down to hear our cry
And see our constant suffering?
Why would He desire to know
Our griefs and sorrows as His own?
My fathers long ago were free
But freedom I have never known
I’ve never had this feeling that I see
Is growing deep inside me
How can I imagine that this world
Will grow more sweet and lovely?
Must the foreman whip my back
To keep me from this futile dream?
For I know life could never be
As promising as it may seem
Yet Someone knows my name
And it gives me strength to stand
It gives me reason to lift my head
And gives me cause to hope
Yes, Someone knows my name
It gives me reason to live
It gives me strength to face each day
And gives me strength to sing
Though I feel like giving up
And losing heart like many others
I will not forget all Moses said
And all the signs and wonders
It might be that Yehovah still
Will not forget His solemn vow
Could it be that there is light
Behind the storm clouds I see now
Someone knows my name
And it gives me strength to stand
It gives me reason to lift my head
And gives me cause to hope
Yes, Someone knows my name
It gives me reason to live
It gives me strength to face each day
And gives me strength to sing
He’s raising up a house for me
A legacy among His nation
This child of mine is His, as are the souls
In every generation
Abraham beheld the sky
And I, like him, will now believe
The One Who names the stars
Is raising up a household for Yariv
Someone knows my name
And it gives me strength to stand
It gives me reason to lift my head
And gives me cause to hope
Yes, Someone knows my name
It gives me reason to live
It gives me strength to face each day
And gives me strength to sing
Yes, Someone knows my name

Amy Grace Poem
(From the musical "On Eagles' Wings")
In my whole lifetime
In my short lifetime
In all my years
In all my days
My mind could
Never have imagined all the wonders He’s displayed
And now to Him who does above what we could ever ask or think
Be all the glory unto all the generations yet to be
