AS LONG AS HE NEEDS ME from the musical OLIVER!
Male Piano Accompaniment with Karaoke lyrics Onscreen in C Major (+7 semitones from original key).
As Long As He Needs Me is a song from the 1960 musical Oliver! which was written by Lionel Bart.
This accompaniment has been created for Tenor/High Baritone voice in the key of C Major which is a perfect 4th down or a perfect 5th up from the original from the musical, this gives a top note of G.
Lyrics :
[Nancy]
As long as he needs me
Oh, yes, he does need me
In spite of what you see
I'm sure that he needs me
Who else would love him still
When they've been used so ill
He knows I always will
As long as he needs me
I miss him so much when he is gone
But when he's near me
I don't let on
The way I feel inside
The love I have to hide
The Hell! I've got my pride
As long as he needs me
He doesn't say the things he should
He acts the way he thinks she should
But, all the same
I'll play this game his way
As long as he needs me
I know where I must be
I'll cling on steadfastly
As long as he needs me
As long as life is long
I'll love him, right or wrong
And, somehow, I'll be strong
As long as he needs me
If you are lonely, then you will know
When someone needs you, you love them so
I won't betray his trust
Though people say I must
I've got to stay true, just
As long as he needs me

The Accompanist has created a collection of Piano Accompaniments of Musical Theatre and Popular music songs.
These Broadway and West End accompaniments have been specifically performed to match the tempos of the original (cast) recordings where possible. These karaoke style tracks have been created to give the audition performer the sound of what is likely within an audition environment where often we are not faced with a full orchestra but simply a pianist. Therefore the songs can sound very different to the fully orchestrated version.
The tracks are designed to be used either in performance or as practice for auditions. You are more than welcome to use the track to create your own YouTube cover of the song. If you could put a link back to this video in your description that would be amazing of you. I'm creating a playlist on my channel page of covers using The Accompanist's tracks so let me know if you do a cover using it and I'll add it to this channel's covers playlist.

![O Holy Night (Cantique de Noël) Piano Accompaniment | B Major [Karaoke Lyrics in CC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/y425m-xcHBg/mqdefault.jpg "O Holy Night (Cantique de Noël) Piano Accompaniment | B Major [Karaoke Lyrics in CC]
O HOLY NIGHT (Cantique de Noël)
Piano Accompaniment in B Major.
Turn on CC/Subtitles for Karaoke lyrics.
O Holy Night is a Christmas song that was written by Adolphe Adam to a French poem Minuit, chrétiens (Midnight, Christians) by Placide Cappeau. The English lyrics were written in 1855 by John Sullivan Dwight.
This piano accompaniment follows along with the recording made of the song by Josh Groban although I have made it a little quicker than the original but only by a couple of beats per minute as, with just solo piano rather than full orchestra, is seemed slightly too slow. I hope you like this version. With the top note being an F# this should work for baritone, low tenor or soprano.
I have done this arrangement as a one verse repeat with a big ending.
You can acquire the sheet music for this arrangement from https://www.musicnotes.com/l/hzHKw
Lyrics :
O holy night, the stars are brightly shining;
It is the night of the dear Saviours birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night divine! O night, O night, O night divine!
[Instrumental moment]
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night divine! O night, O night divine!
