El Shaddai
GOD Almighty.
El Shaddai, as previously mentioned, is most often translated as "God Almighty."
El-Elyon na Adonai is a combination of two names for God, meaning "God Most High, O Lord" (na is a particle of entreaty, sometimes translated "please" but often left untranslated).
Erkamka na Adonai is taken from Psalm 18:1 (except for the "na," which is added) and is normally translated "I love you (ארחמך), O Lord." Psalm 18:1 is the only place that the Hebrew Bible uses this verb for love in the Qal stem; this is normally an Aramaic usage. Hebrew uses this verb in the Piel stem.
Lyrics
You saved the son of Abraham
Through the power of Your hand
You turned the sea into dry land
To the outcast on her knees
You were the God who really sees
And by Your might
You set Your children free
El Shaddai, el Shaddai
El-elyon na Adonai
Age to age You're still the same
By the power of the name
El Shaddai, el Shaddai
Erkamka na Adonai
I will praise and lift You high
El Shaddai
El Shaddai, el Shaddai
El-elyon na Adonai
Age to age You're still the same
By the power of the name
El Shaddai, el Shaddai
Erkamka na Adonai
I will praise and lift You high
El Shaddai
Through the years You 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
I love your music, you have been richly blessed. Maybe a compilation I could put on a playlist?
I had a dream on December 8, 2024 .. I was in a room full of books (possible library).. The room was full of people singing "El Shaddai" in unison.. I heard the word 'SING' so I sang along with the others..
