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, Erkahmka Na Adonai
We Will Praise And Lift You High, El-Shaddai
[Verse 1]
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 Your Might
You Set Your Children Free
[Chorus]
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, Erkahmka Na Adonai
We Will Praise And Lift You High, El-Shaddai
[Verse 2]
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
Though Your Word Contained The Plan
They Just Would Not Understand
Your Most Awesome Work Was Done
Through The Frailty Of Your Son
[Chorus]
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, Erkahmka Na Adonai
I Will Praise You Till I Die, El-Shaddai
[Chorus]
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, Erkahmka Na Adonai
I Will Praise You Till I Die, El-Shaddai

“El Shaddai” (sometimes styled “El-Shaddai”) is a contemporary Christian music song. It was written by Michael Card and John Thompson, using direct quotes from scripture as their inspiration, and recorded by Card on his 1981 debut album, Legacy.
However, the best-known version of the song was by singer Amy Grant, whose rendition was recorded in 1982 on her platinum-certified album Age to Age.
The title comes from a Judaic name of God, usually translated as “God Almighty” (see El Shaddai). Approximately half the lyrics of the chorus are in the Hebrew language, which is rather unusual for a contemporary Christian song. The recording was in the style of a performance ballad, but the song was subsequently published in some hymnbooks and is occasionally sung congregationally. The song was a hit single for Grant, reaching the top of the Billboard Christian chart. “El Shaddai” won “Song of the Year” and Card won “Songwriter of the Year” at the 1983 GMA Dove Awards. It was also named one of the “Songs of the Century” by the RIAA in 2001.
