Terri Plant

Vocalist Terri Plant talks to us about cross-cultural singing in both English and Arabic, and how music has both moved into (been a gift) and out of (been a hindrance to) her life in service to God.

Terri sings “En Tal El Layl”
“If the night should prolong”
Words: Wafaa Adel
Music: Amgad Saad Zakri

If the darkness of night is prolonged
even so the dawn will arise
and my Lord comes to me in His peace
and says, “I am here” (x2)

I make music on my flute and my lute
my troubles and wounds don’t remain
My Lord sweetens my existence
and my heart is comforted at last (x2)

Perhaps we pass through trials
maybe tribulations war with me
But my victorious God lifts me up
even in my extreme difficulties (x2)

I make music on my flute and my lute
my troubles and wounds don’t remain
My Lord sweetens my existence
and my heart is comforted at last (x2)

Instrumental Break

Certainly there lie thorns in my path
as this wilderness journey is tough
But the glory of my home to come
is so much better than here! (x2)

I make music on my flute and my lute
my troubles and wounds don’t remain
My Lord sweetens my existence
and my heart is comforted at last (x2)

Bridge

If the darkness of night is prolonged
even so the dawn will arise
