Will You Be There? / Ain’t But the One

Duke Ellington

[Part I: Will You Be There?]

[Chorus]
Will you be there? (Will you be there?)
Will your name be called? (Will your name be called?)

[Post-Chorus]
Will you be there?
Will your name be called? (Ooh)

[Verse 1]
Did you live one hundred percent
What the Ten Commandments meant?

[Chorus]
Will you be there? (Will you be there?)
Will your name be called?

[Verse 2]
Make one hundred percent your goal
And make it to savе your soul

[Chorus]
Will you be there? (Will you bе there?)
Will your name be called?

[Verse 3]
It's got to be all or nothing or all
Either you pass or you call

[Chorus]
Will you be there? (Will you be there?)
Will your name be called?

[Part II: Ain't But the One]

[Chorus]
Ain't but the one (Just one)
Ain't but the one (Just one)
Ain't but the one good Lord above
Ain't but the one great God of love

[Post-Chorus]
Who set the stars? (Just one, just one)
Who knows the judgment? (Just one, just one)
Who is the power? (Ain't but the)
Ain't but the one who knows the story (One, ain't)

[Bridge]
Made little apples that fall from the tree (Ooh)
Birds in the sky, put fish in the sea (Ooh)
Who made the little flowers that give honey to the bees? (Ooh)
Made the cripple walk and the blind man to see?

[Chorus]
Ain't but the one (Just one)
Ain't but the one (Just one)
Ain't but the one good Lord above
Ain't but the one great God of love

[Post-Chorus]
Who set the stars? (The sun and the moon)
Who knows the judgment? (How soon?)
Who is the power? (Who is the glory?)
Ain't but the one who knows the story

[Verse 1]
Brought water from solid stone (Hoo hoo)
Brought water like rain (Hoo hoo)
Made a serpent wiggle from a walking stick (Hoo hoo)
Made a snake out of a cane (Hoo hoo)
Made a million miracles (Hoo hoo)
Miracles never fail (Hoo hoo)
Snatched Jonah, yes he did (Hoo hoo)
From the belly of the whale (Hoo hoo)

[Verse 2]
Fed the people in the wilderness (Hoo hoo)
Manna from the sky and then (Hoo hoo)
Daniel up and upset the cup (Hoo hoo)
Jumped from the lion's den (Hoo hoo)
Stopped the River Jordan (Hoo hoo)
The River Jordan's flow (Hoo hoo)
Made Joshua win the battle (Hoo hoo)
The battle of Jericho (Hoo hoo)

[Chorus]
Ain't but the one (Just one)
Ain't but the one (Just one)
Ain't but the one good Lord above
Ain't but the one great God of love

[Post-Chorus]
Who set the stars? (The sun and the moon)
Who knows the judgment? (How soon?)
Who is the power? (Who is the glory?)
Ain't but the one who knows the story

[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't but the one, ain't but the one
Ain't but the one, ain't but the one
Ain't but the one, ain't but the one

[Chorus]
Ain't but the one (Just one)
Ain't but the one (Just one)
Ain't but the one good Lord above
Ain't but the one great God of love
