ALAS I BEG, PLEASE HEAR MY VOICE,
AND LISTEN TO WHAT I SAY,
FOR ON BENDED KNEES I’M PLEADING,
TO EACH AND ALL THIS DAY,
FOR ALL THAT I SHALL TELL YOU,
IS SO YOU MAY UNDERSTAND,
FOR THAT WHICH SHALL COME UPON THE EARTH,
IS THE FULFILLMENT OF GOD’S PLAN!

2.

IN THAT LAND CALLED ULSTER,
ITS PEOPLE CAN NEVER BE FREE,
FOR THEY ARE TIED TO THE CHAINS,
OF HATRED, STRIFE AND BIGOTRY.

NO PEACE FOR THEIR CHILDREN,
EVEN THOSE WHO HAVE NOT YET BEEN BORN,
FOR THEIR LAND IS TORN APART,
FILLED WITH PARENTS WHO ONLY MOURN.

GOD HEL THE CALLED ULSTER,
GOD HELP ITS PEOPLE TOO,
HOW MANY MORE MUST DIE BEFORE,
GOD’S TRUTH FINALLY SINKS THROUGH.

JUST WATCH THEM AT THERE FUNERALS,
AS THEY WEEP AND MOURN
AS THEY LAY THERE LOVED ONES IN THE EARTH,
IN THE LAND WHERE THEY WERE BORN

3.

COME ALL YOU LITTLE CHILDREN,
AND LISTEN TO WHAT I SAY,
FOR JESUS WANTS TO BE YOUR FRIEND,
AND WALK WITH YOU EACH DAY.

COME ALL YOU LITTLE CHILDREN,
TAKE JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOUR TODAY,
AND HE SHALL HOLD YOUR HAND FOREVER,
AND YOU’LL NEVER GO ASTRAY.

COME ALL YOU LITTLE, CHILDREN,
OPEN UP YOUR HEARTS TODAY,
FOR JESUS WANTS TO BE YOUR SAVIOUR,
AND PROTECT YOU ON LIFE’S WAY.

COME ALL YOU LITTLE CHILDREN,
IN YOUR LIFE, JESUS WANTS TO SHARE,
HE’LL TAKE AWAY ALL YOUR TROUBLES,
AND SHOW YOU THAT HE DOES CARE.

COME ALL YOU LITTLE CHILDREN,
FOR JESUS JUST LOVES YOU SO,
LET HIM BE YOUR SAVIOUR,
AND HE’LL PURIFY YOUR SOUL.

4.

O!LORD JESUS, I’M CRYING OUT TO THEE,
TO HOLD YOU TO YOUR PROMISE,
THAT YOU HAVE MADE TO ME.

FOR MY HEART IS ACHING SO,
AND I CAN’T TAKE MUCH MORE,
FOR IN MY GRIEF I’M CRYING OUT,
IS THERE SOMETHING YOU DEPLORE,

PLEASE TAKE FROM ME THIS DARKNESS,
THAT SURROUNDS ME SO,
AND BRING ME TO YOUR GRACIOUS LIGHT,
THAT I MAY COME TO KNOW,

AND WHEN I ENTER YOUR PRESENCE,
AND SEE YOUR GLORIOUS LIGHT,
I KNOW YOU’LL PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND ME,
AND HOLD ME O, SO TIGHT.

5.

WHY DO YOU MARVEL AT WHAT I SAY,
FOR JESUS CHRIST SHALL RETURN ONE DAY,
IN ALL HIS GLORY HE SHALL ARRIVE,
WITH HEAVENLY ANGEL AT HIS SIDE,
AND ACCOMPANYING,
THERE SHALL ALSO BE,
THE ONES WHO THROUGH HIM,
HAVE BEEN WASHED CLEAN,
THE CHOSEN ONES,
GOD CALLS REDEEMED.

6.

NOW TAKE THE HAND OF JESUS,
AND FEAR NOT ANYMORE,
HOLD HIS HAND TIGHTLY,
AND HIM YOU SHALL ADORE,
AND AS HE HOLDS YOUR HAND,
HE’LL SEE YOU THROUGH LIFE’S WAY,
ALWAYS STANDING THERE BESIDE YOU,
EACH AND EVERY DAY

7.

HE STOOD IN ALL HIS KINDNESS,
HEALING ALL WHO CAME,
THE SICK, THE BLIND, THE LEPER,
AND EVEN THE VERY LAME.
HE WAS GREETED BY THE PEOPLE,
WHENEVER HE WOULD COME,
BUT UNKOWN TO THE PEOPLE,
HE WAS GOD’S ONLY SON.

8.

LORD JESUS, PRECIOUS SAVIOUR,
TO A LOWLY LIFE YOU CAME,
TO CAST OUT MANY DEMONS,
TO HEAL THE SICK AND LAME,
YOU HELD YOUR HAND OUT TO ME,
WHEN ALL I KNEW WAS SHAME,
AND CLEANSED ME FROM MY GUILTY SIN,
FOR WHICH I WAS TO BLAME,
AND NOW I’VE COME TO LOVE YOU,
FOR ME YOUR LIFE YOU GAVE,
O!LORD JESUS, HOW CAN I THANK YOU,
THAT MY SOUL YOU CAME TO SAVE

9.

I AM, THE GOOD SHEPHERD
AND I’VE COME TO GATHER MY SHEEP,
TO GUIDE THEM INTO GREEN PASTURES,
WHERE FOREVER I SHALL KEEP.

I AM, THE GOOD SHEPHERD,
AND I’LL COME TO EACH AND ALL,
WHO CALLS UPON THE SHEPHERD’S NAME,
FOR IN ME THEY SHALL NOT FALL.

I AM, THE GOOD SHEPHERD,
AND I CARE FOR MY SHEEP,
I’LL WIPE THEIR TEARS FROM THEM,
FOR IN ME, THEY SHALL NOT WEEP.

I AM, THE GOOD SHEPHERD,
WHO LAID HIS LIFE DOWN FOR HIS SHEEP,
TO PREVENT THEM FROM BEING SCATTERED,
FOR IN ME, MY FLOCK I SHALL KEEP.

I AM, THE GOOD SHEPHERD,
AND ONLY THOSE SHEEP, SHALL I LET IN,
WHO HAVE CLEANSED THEMSELVES THROUGH ME,
FOR ONLY I CAN TAKE AWAY THEIR SIN

10.

GLORY TO THE FATHER, FOR HE CREATED ALL,
GLORY TO THE SON, THROUGH WHOM WE SHALL NOT FALL,
GLORY TO THE FATHER, FOR HE KNOWS ALL OUR NEEDS,
GLORY TO THE SON, FOR IN US HE SOWS HIS SEED,
GLORY TO THE FATHER, FOR IN HIM WE HAVE PEACE,
GLORY TO THE SON, FOR HIS LOVE SHALL NEVER CEASE.
GLORY TO THE FATHER, FOR HEAVEN I SHALL BE IN,
GLORY TO THE SON, FOR HE CLEANSED ME OF MY SIN,
GLORY TO THE FATHER, FOR MY TEARS HE’LL WIPE AWAY,
GLORY TO HIS SON JESUS, WHO GAVE ME SALVATION TODAY,

11.

UPON THE THRONE OF HEAVEN,
OUR GOD IS SEATED THERE,
AND ONE DAY WE’LL GATHER AROUND HIS THRONE,
AND THESE WORDS WE SHALL DECLARE,
“GLORY TO YOU HEAVENLY FATHER,
FOR THROUGH YOU, WE ARE CLEANSED OF OUR SIN,
FOR YOU GAVE YOUR PRECIOUS SON JESUS,
THAT YOUR LOVE BE SHOWN IN HIM.
FOR WE WERE LOST AND JUST WANDERING,
UNTIL YOUR SON, WE CAME TO KNOW,
FOR HE’S THE ONLY SAVIOUR,
WHO CAN CLEANSE A SINFUL SOUL,
AND AS WE LIE BEFORE YOU THESE PRAISES WE SHALL SAY,
HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, ARE YOU LORD GOD THIS DAY.

12.

SOMETIMES MY HEART IS FILLED WITH DISMAY,
FOR ALL OF MY PEOPLE, WHO HAVE GONE ASTRAY,
AND WHEN I TELL THEM HOW MUCH HE DOES CARE,
THEY REEL ON MY, AND MY FEELING DON’T SPARE,
FOR THEY MOCK MY SAVIOUR, AND IT CHILLS MY SOUL,
AND AS I WATCH THEM, THEIR LOVE GROWS COLD,
YET WEARY AND TRIED, AS I MAYBE,
I’LL PREACH CHRIST’S WORD FOR ETERNITY.

13.

O!JERUSALEM, JERUSALEM, CAME THE LORD’S CRY,
FOR I CAME THAT YOUR PEOPLE MAY NO LONGER DIE.
O!JERUSALEM, JERUSALEM, I CAME TO GATHER YOU IN,
YET INSIPTE OF MY LOVE, YOU’RE STILL IN YOUR SIN.
O!JERUSALEM, JERUSALEM, YOU HAVE REJECTED ME,
SO THIS GENERATION, DESOLATION SHALL SEE.

14.

WHY DO YOU MARVEL AT WHAT YOU SEE,
FOR THIS SAME JESUS SHALL RETURN TO THEE,
AND AS HE RISES UP INTO THE SKY,
KNOW IN YOUR HEARTS, THAT YOU’LL NEVER DIE,
SO COME ALL YOU SINNERS, RESPOND TO HIS CALL,
AND CROWN HIM KING, FOR HE’S KING OF ALL.

15.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
AS THE PRINCE OF PEACE,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
ALL WARS SHALL CEASE.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
AS THE LORD OF ALL,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
EVIL MEN SHALL FALL.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
AS THE KING OF KINGS,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
ALL HEAVEN SHALL SING.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
AND TAKE AWAY STRIFE,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
THE EARTH SHALL HAVE NEW LIFE.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
WHEN THE TRUMPET DOES SOUND,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
SATAN SHALL BE BOUND.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
ALL ISREAL SHALL CRY.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
AS JUDGE OVER ALL,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
HIS PEOPLE SHALL CALL.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
AND HIS PEOPLE HE’LL DELIVER,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
WE SHALL REIGN FOREVER.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
FOR HIS CHILDREN WHO DIED,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
THEY SHALL BE BY HIS SIDE.

CHRIST SHALL RETURN,
AND HE SHALL NOT STUMBLE,
AND WHEN HIS FEET TOUCH THE MOUNT,
ALL MEN SHALL BE HUMBLE.

16.

O! HOLY, SPIRIT, O! HOLY SPIRIT,
HOW YOU ONCE TROUBLED ME,
YOU GAVE ME REST, NOT NIGHT OR DAY,
IN YOUR BID TO SET ME FREE.

O! HOLY SPIRIT, O! HOLY SPIRIT,
I WAS BLIND AND COULD NOT SEE,
THAT THE CHAINS, WHICH HAD HOLD OF ME,
WERE THE CHAINS OF SLAVERY,

O! HOLY SPIRIT, O! HOLY SPIRIT,
HOW YOU CONVICTED ME,
AND BROUGHT ME OUT OF DARKNESS,
TO CHRIST’S LIGHT WHERE I COULD SEE,

O! HOLY SPIRIT, O! HOLY SPIRIT,
WITH MY SOUL I DO THANK THEE,
FOR CHRIST IS NOW MY SAVIOUR,
AND WITH HIM I SHALL ALWAYS BE.

17.

FAITH SHALL HEAL YOU,
AND MAKE YOU WHOLE.
FAITH SHALL SAVE YOU,
IF TO JESUS YOU GO.
FAITH SHALL HELP YOU,
THROUGH THE DAY,
FAITH SHALL SHOW YOU,
WHAT IS GOD’S WAY,
FAITH SHALL LIFT YOU,
WHEN YOU’RE DOWN.
FAITH IN JESUS,
IS WHERE GOD’S LOVE IS FOUND

18.

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BEEN TOLD?
THAT CHRIST SHALL CLEANSE YOUR SIN,
YET INSPITE OF ALL THE WARNINGS,
YOU WILL NOT TURN TO HIM

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BEEN TOLD?
THAT DEATH IS DRAWING NEAR.
YET INSPITE OF ALL THE WARNINGS,
YOU SHED NOT EVEN ONE TEAR.

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BEEN TOLD?
THAT PRAYERS HAVE BEEN OFFERED UP
YET INSPITE OF ALL THE WARNINGS,
YOUR SOUL REMAINS CORRUPT.

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BEEN TOLD?
THAT SIN SHALL DESTROY YOUR SOUL.
YET INSPITE OF ALL THE WARNINGS,
TO HELL YOUR SOUL SHALL GO.

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BEEN TOLD?
TO TURN AWAY FROM SIN.
YET INSPITE OF ALL THE WARNINGS,
CHRIST JESUS YOU WON’T LET IN.

NOW THERE’LL COME A TIME IN THE SINNER’S LIFE,
WHEN CHRIST’S WARNINGS SHALL ALL CEASE,
AND THEIR SIN SHALL TAKE THEM TO HELL,
BUT IN HELL, THEY’LL FIND NO PEACE.

19.

SATAN BRUISED CHRIST ON HIS HEEL,
AND MADE HIM SUFFER SO,
BUT UPON THE HEAD OF SATAN,
CHRIST DEALT A FATAL BLOW,

FOR IN THAT PLACE CALLED CALVARY,
CHRIST’S LOVE WAS ON SHOW,
AS A SACRIFICE FOR ALL SINNERS,
THAT HIS LOVE, THEY MAY COME TO KNOW,

SO COME ALL YOU SINNERS,
TO THE ATONEMENT OF THE CROSS,
AND CLEANSE YOUR SOUL FROM SIN,
THAT YOU MAY NOT SUFFER LOSS

20.

WHEN LIFE’S JOURNEY DRAWS TO AN END,
WHERE LIES YOUR HOPE, WHO DO YOU CALL FRIEND,
WHEN DEATHS DARK CLOUDS, DRIFT OVER HEAD,
WHOSE NAME SHALL YOU CALL OUT, WHAT NAME SHALL BE SAID?
WHEN DEATH’S SHADOW ECLIPSES YOU SOUL,
WHO SHALL MEET YOU, OR WHERE SHALL YOU GO?
WHEN YOU GASP LIFE’S LAST BREATH,
SHALL YOU BE FOREVER, IN UNWARRANTED DEATH?
WHO SHALL MEET YOU AT THE END OF LIFE’S ROAD?
WHO SHALL LIFT DEATH’S HEAVY LOAD?
WAS IT, THE NAME JESUS, THAT YOU PUT YOUR TRUST IN?
FOR NO OTHER NAME CAN CLEANSE YOU SIN,
WAS HE THE SAVIOUR THAT YOU CAME TO KNOW?
FOR IF YOU DID NOT THEN TO HEAVEN YOU CAN’T GO!

21.

HOW MANY MEN, THEMSELVES CONDEMN,
FOR TO CHRIST THEY WOULD NOT GO,
INSPITE OF ALL THE WARNING,
CHRIST JESUS THEY REFUSED TO KNOW.

THEY REJECTED CHRIST AND HIS OFFER,
WHICH FREELY GIVEN TO THEM,
HIS OFFER OF SALVATION,
THAT THERE SOULS WOULD NOT BE CONDEMNED,

22.

CHRIST HE WANTED TO SAVE THEM,
IF ONLY THEY HAD HEEDED HIS CALL,
YET INSPITE OF HIS WORDS OF SALVATION,
TO BEND A KNEE WAS FOR THEM TO CRAWL.

THIS WORLD HAS SO MUCH TO OFFER THEM,
AND THEIR GREED JUST GROWS MORE AND MORE,
AND AS THEIR HEARTS CLOSE TO CHRIST’S SALVATION,
THEN THEY SHUT THAT HEAVENLY DOOR.

CHRIST, HE WANTED TO SAVE THEM,
EACH AND EVERYONE,
THAT THERE SOULS WOULD DWELL IN PARADISE,
AND TO HELL THEY WOULD NOT SUCCUMB,

NOW LISTEN TO CHRIST’S WARNING,
AND PAY NO HEED IF YOU MUST,
BUT WHEN YOUR LIFE ON EARTH IS OVER,
THROUGH HELL’S GATES, YOUR SOUL SHALL BE THRUST.

23.

CHRIST’S LOVE HAS LIFTED ME,
IT CLEANSED MY SIN AND SET ME FREE,
AND FROM ALL DARKNESS HE DOES GUIDE ME,
INTO HIS LIGHT THAT I MAY SEE,
NO GREATER LOVE CAN THERE EVER BE,
THAN THE LOVE OF CHRIST, THAT LIFTED ME.

24.

HE WAS THE ONE WHO GAVE BACK SIGHT,
HE WAS THE ONE WHO SHONE SO BRIGHT,
HE WAS THE ONE WHO WAS THE LIGHT,
HE WAS THE ONE WHO CONQUERED WRONG WITH RIGHT,
YET HE WAS ARRESTED IN THE DARK OF NIGHT,
AND WITH THERE ROPES THE BOUND HIM TIGHT,
YET HE WAS GOD, WHO SHOWED NOT HIS MIGHT,
FOR HE DID NOT COME, THAT TIME TO FIGHT,
BUT THE DAY SHALL COME, AND FROM A GREAT HEIGHT,
CHRIST SHALL DESCEND, AND THE UNGOLDY HE’LL SMITE.

25.

I AM A MAN, A SINFUL MAN,
WHO COMES TO GOD FOR GRACE,
I AM A MAN, JUST A MAN,
WHO CAME OUT FROM THE HUMAN RACE,
I AM A MAN, JUST A SORROWFUL MAN,
WHO FELT HIS SOUL GOING TO WASTE,
I AM A MAN, A TEARFUL MAN,
WHO WANTED CHRIST’S LOVE TO TASTE

26.

O! LORD, HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU,
WITH ALL MY HEART AND SOUL,
FOR WHEN I’M EVER TROUBLED,
IT’S TO YOU, LORD, THAT I GO,
FOR I KNOW YOU’LL NEVER FORSAKE ME,
EVEN WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH,
YOU’LL ALWAYS LIFT UP MY SPIRIT,
AND FOR THAT I CAN’T LOVE YOU ENOUGH.

27.

GOD’S NUMBER IS SEVEN, ON WHICH CHRIST MUST STAND,
SEVEN PILLARS HAVE WISDOM, WHICH COMES FROM GOD’S HAND,

AND SO THAT NONE, SHALL BE IN DOUBT, CHRIST’S SEVEN PILLARS,
I HAVE WORKED OUT:

PILLAR NUMBER ONE, WAS HIS VIRGIN BIRTH,
FOR MY LORD AND SAVIOUR DID WALK ON THIS EARTH.

PILLAR NUMBER TWO, WAS HIS SINLESS LIFE,
FOR THROUGH CHRIST JESUS, WE NO LONGER HAVE STRIFE.

PILLAR NUMBER THREE, WERE THE MIRACLES HE WROUGHT,
FOR IN THE SHEDDING OF HIS BLOOD, FOR A PRICE WE’VE BEEN BOUGHT.

PILLAR NUMBER FOUR, WAS HIS ATONEMENT AT THE CROSS,
IN THE GIVING OF HIS LIFE, MY SOUL SHALL NOT BE LOST.

PILLAR NUMBER FIVE, WAS WHEN HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD,
IN HIS BODILY RESURRECTION, HE DEALT A DEATH BLOW TO SATAN’S HEAD.

PILLAR NUMBER SIX, WAS WHEN JESUS ASCENDED TO HEAVEN ABOVE,
FOR IT FROM HEAVEN, THAT HE CAME TO SHOW HIS LOVE,

PILLAR NUMBER SEVEN, SHALL BE HIS COMING BACK AGAIN,
AND WHEN HE DOES COME, WITH HIM I SHALL REIGN.

28.

PRAISE OUR HEAVENLY FATHER,
FOR EVERYTHING THAT HE HAS DONE,
HE LEFT NOTHING FOR US TO DO,
BUT DID IT ALL, IN HIS WONDERFUL SON.

LET ALL THE GLORY BE GIVEN TO HIS NAME,
HE’S THE GOD WHO’S ALWAYS THE SAME,
WHO LOOKS NO LONGER AT OUR SHAME,
FOR ON HIS SON, HE TOOK ALL OUR BLAME.

PRAISE BE TO THE LORD GOD THE HIGHEST,
FOR HE IS A GOD WHO IS SO PIOUS,
PRAISE BE TO HIS WONDERFUL NAME,
FOR HE’S THE GOD OF SUCH GREAT FAME

29.

BLESSED ARE THOSE WHOSE ROBES ARE WASHED WHITE,
FOR THEY SHALL SIT ON GOD’S RIGHT,
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HEED THE WORDS OF HIS BOOK,
FOR UPON HIS FACE THEY SHALL LOOK,
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO DIE IN CHRIST,
FOR THEY SHALL RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE,
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO LOVE THE LORD,
FOR HEAVEN SHALL BE THEIR REWARD,
BLESSED ARE THOSE AT THE WEDDING OF THE LAMB,
FOR HE IS THE GOD WHO SAID “I AM”
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO EAT OF HIS BREAD,
FOR IN THEIR SIN THEY ARE NO LONGER DEAD,
BLESSED AND HOLY SHALL MANY BE,
DEATH FROM THEM SHALL FOREVER FLEE.

30.

THANK GOD I VE JESUS AS MY FRIEND,
FOR HIS LOVE SHALL NEVER EVER END,
THANK GOD FOR THE WOMAN IN MY LIFE,
FOR SHE IS SUCH A WONDERFUL WIFE,
THANK GOD FOR THE CHILDREN HE GAVE ME,
FOR THROUGH THEM, HIS GLORY I SEE,
THANK GOD FOR EACH DAY THAT COMES ALONG,
ANOTHER DAY TO PRAISE HIM IN SONG,
THANK GOD FOR ALL THAT HE HAS DONE,
IN GIVING THIS WORLD HIS PRECIOUS SON,
THANK GOD FOR JESUS WHO GIVES ME PEACE,
FOR ALL MY BURDENS THROUGH HIM HAVE CEASED,
THANK GOD; AN ORPHAN I SHALL NEVER BE,
FOR THROUGH CHRIST JESUE; GOD’S A FATHER TO ME.

31.

I CRIED, THE NIGHT YOU CALLED ME,
AND BROUGHT ME INTO YOUR FOLD,
I CRIED, THAT NIGHT YOU CALLED ME,
AND CLEANSED; MY SINFUL SOUL

32.

THE DAY SHALL COME, BE IN NO DOUBT,
FROM HEAVEN ABOVE, YOU SHALL HEAR A SHOUT,
AND UPON THE CLOUDS, ONE SHALL COME OUT,
WHO’S JUST AND PURE AND DRESSED IN WHITE,
TO DO BATTLE, HE’S COME TO FIGHT,
TO DESTROY THE UNGODLY, WITH ALL HIS MIGHT,
AND HIS NAME IS SIMPLY “LIGHT”.

33.

MARRY CAME RUNNING TO JESUS,
HER EYES WET WITH TEARS,
CRYING OUT THESE WORDS TO HIM,
IF ONLY YOU HAD BEEN HERE,
MY BROTHERS LIFE IS OVER,
HE LIES THERE IN A TOMB.
THEN JESUS WEPT WITH MARRY,
SAYING, YOUR BROTHER WILL RISE SOON,
THEN HE RAISED HIS EYES TO HEAVEN,
GOD’S GLORY YOU ALL SHALL SEE,
FOR I WILL RAISE UP YOUR BROTHER,
THEN YOU’LL KNOW MY FATHER SENT ME.
JESUS THEN PRAYED TO HIS FATHER,
AND WITH A LOUD VOICE HE CRIED OUT,
AND HE WHO WAS BOUND HAND TO FOOT,
CAME FORTH; LEAVING NONE IN DOUBT.
SO LET US PRAISE OUR HEAVENLY FATHER,
AND PRAISE OUR LORD JESUS TOO,
FOR IN THAT MIRACLE OF LAZARUS,
CHRIST IS SHOWING THAT DEATH,
HAS NO VICTORY OVER YOU.

34.

I KNOW THERE’LL COME A DAY MY FRIEND,
WHEN YOU’LL HAVE TO MAKE A CHOICE,
ONE SHALL MAKE THE SAVIOUR WEEP,
THE ANOTHER SHALL MAKE HIM REJOICE.

I KNOW IT’S YOUR DECISION FRIEND,
WHETHER TO LET CHRIST IN,
THAT HE MAYBE, YOUR SAVIOUR,
AND CLEANSE YOU FROM YOUR SIN.

I KNOW THE SAVIOUR MY DEAR FRIEND,
IN YOUR LIFE IS LONGING TO SHARE,
TO SHOW HE REALLY LOVES YOU,
TO SHOW THAT HE REALLY DO’ES CARE.

35.

FORGIVE THEM; WAS LOVES CRY,
LOVE NAILED TO A CROSS
THAT I MAY NOT DIE,
TWO HANDS STRECHED OUT, FOR
ALL TO SEE, GOD TAKING MY PLACE
FOR WHAT WAS DUE TO ME.

36.

SOFTLY AS MY CHILDREN SLEEP,
I PRAY TO THE LORD IN HIS HANDS HE’LL KEEP,
AND AS THEY LIE IN HEAVENLY PEACE,
I PRAY THE LORD THEIR SOULS HE’LL REACH,

FOR LITTLE CHILDREN JUST DON’T KNOW,
HOW MUCH LIFE’S CORRUPTION, CAN HARM THEM SO,
BUT TO THE LORD, I DO PRAY,
THAT HE’LL BE WITH THEM ON LIFE’S WAY,

AND AS THEY SLEEP IN ALL HIS GRACE,
I PRAY THAT JESUS’ LOVE THEY’LL TASTE,
AND LIKE ALL CHILDREN WHO HAVE GREAT FAITH,
I PRAY TO THE LORD THAT THEY’LL BE SAVED.

37.

THERE’LL COME A TIME UPON THE EARTH,
WHEN MEN SHALL GO THEIR OWN WAY,
AND MANY WHO CLAIM TO LOVE JESUS
SHALL SURELY GO ASTRAY, AND THE DAY SHALL
COME, WHEN GOD’S OWN SON, SHALL BE HATED
EVERYWHERE, AND NATIONS SHALL RISE, AND GODS
SON THEY’LL DESPISE, AND THEIR HATRED THEY SHALL
DECLARE, THEN ONE SHALL COME, SATAN’S SON, AND
HE SHALL DECEIVE, AND THE NATIONS SHALL COME, AND
HIM THEY SHALL RECEIVE, AND WITH WICKED INTENT,
HE SHALL BE HELL BENT, IN DESTROYING THE EARTH AND
MEN’S SOULS, BUT THE END SHALL COME, WITH THE
RETURN OF GOD’S SON, AND TO HELL THE UNGODLY SHALL GO.

38.

I’VE HEARD THE PRAYERS OF MY PEOPLE,
THESE WORDS OUR GOD SHALL SAY,
FOR UPON MY GOLDEN ALTAR,
THEIR PRAYERS ARE BEFORE ME THIS DAY.

THEN THE SOULS OF THE MARTYRED,
SHALL CRY OUT IN DISMAY,
HOW LONG MUST WE WAIT, O GOD,
BRFORE EVIL MEN MUST PAY.

JUST A LITTLE WHILE LONGER,
UNTIL ALL THE BRETHREN ARE IN,
THEN I’LL POUR OUT MY WRATH UPON THEM,
FOR THEIR WICKEDNESS AND THEIR SIN.

39.

COME ALL YE PEOPLE,
TO GOD DRAW NEAR,
FOR THE TIME IS APPOACHING,
WHEN HIS NAME YOU SHALL FEAR.
COME ALL YE PEOPLE,
TURN AWAY FROM SIN,
FOR THE LORD GOD’S FOREWARNED
YOU, TO TURN TO HIM.
COME ALL YE PEOPLE,
DON’T LEAVE IT TOO LATE,
FOR IF YOU DIE IN YOUR SIN,
YOU CAN’T NEGOTIATE.
COME ALL YE PEOPLE,
LISTEN TO THE LORD GOD’S CRY,
FOR HE’S TRYING TO TELL YOU,
THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO DIE,
COME YE ALL PEOPLE.
COME TO CHRIST’S CROSS,
WHERE GOD SHALL RECEIVE YOU,
AND YOUR SOUL SHALL NOT BE LOST.

40.

HAPPINESS YOU MAY NEVER HAVE HAD,
MAYBE LIFES BEEN CRUEL AND OFTEN SAD,
AND AS YOU’VE JOURNEY THROUGH LIFES WAY,
YOUR BITTERNESS JUST GREW DAY BY DAY,
MAYBE HAPPINESS YOU COME TO BELIEVE,
THROUGH WEALTH ALONE CAN ONE ACHIEVE,
BUT OH, HOW WRONG YOU HAVE BECOME,
FOR HAPPINESS IS FOUND IN GOD’S SON,
AND IF YOU RECEIVE HIM AS YOUR SAVIOUR THIS
DAY, TRUE HAPPINESS YOU SHALL HAVE, FOR YOU
HAVE FOUND, THE NARROW WAY.

41.

STARS MAY SHINE SO LIGHTLY,
AND THE SUN MAY SHINE SO BRIGHT,
BUT THE ONE WHO SHINES MOST OF ALL,
IS THE ONE WHO GAVE BACK SIGHT,
HE SHINES IN ALL HIS GLORY,
AND HIS GLORY I’VE COME TO KNOW,
AND I THANK THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY,
FOR HIS SON; PURE LOVE HE BESTOWED.

42.

THERE’LL COME A DAY, WHEN JESUS SHALL SAY,
IT’S TIME TO LEAVE THIS WORLD BEHIND,
THIS WORLD IN WHICH I LIVE IN, A WORLD THAT
WAS NEVER MINE,

THIS WORLD IT ONLY KNOWS SORROW,
THIS WORLD THAT’S PAINED WITH GRIEF,
THIS WORLD THAT’S FILLED WITH PEOPLE,
WALKING IN DISBELIEF.

AND WHEN THE LORD CALLS ME, THIS WORLD I’LL
LEAVE BEHIND, AND TO A NEW WORLD HE SHALL
TAKE ME, A WORLD THAT IS DEVINE,

A WORLD THAT HAS NO SORROW, NO GRIEF OR TEARS
ANYMORE, A WORLD THAT FILLED WITH HAPPINESS,
A WORLD I SHALL ADORE.

NO WORDS COULD DESCRIBE THIS WORLD,
NOR THE BEAUTY THAT IT DOES HOLD,
THE LORD GOD JUST CALLS IT HEAVEN,
FOR IT IS HIS ABODE.

43.

I LONG FOR THE DAY, WHEN JESUS SHALL SAY,
I’M CALLING IN MY OWN, TO FULFILL MY PROMISE,
AND BRING THEM TO MY HOME.

I LONG FOR THE DAY, WHEN JESUS SHALL SAY,
IT’S TIME FOR MICHAEL TO SHOUT, AND GATHER IN
MY PEOPLE, SO THE UNGODLY SHALL BE IN NO DOUBT.

I LONG FOR THE DAY, WHEN JESUS SHALL SAY,
THE TIME HAS NOW COME, TO PUNISH THE UNGODLY,
FOR ALL THE SIN THEY DONE.

I LONG FOR THE DAY, WHEN JESUS SHALL SAY,
THE DAY OF OUR WRATH HAS COME, TO POUR OUT
THE BLOOD OF THE SAINTS, UPON THE EVIL ONE

I LONG FOR THE DAY, WHEN JESUS SHALL SAY,
LET ALL THE REDEEMED COME, FOR THEY SHALL BE
CALLED BLESSED, EACH AND EVERYONE.

I LONG FOR THE DAY, WHEN JESUS SHALL SAY,
MY WEDDING FEAST HAS NOW COME, FOR NOW WE OUR
MARRIED TOGETHER, “THE REDEEMED AND I OUR ONE”

44.

SUMMER IS PAST, AND THE TIME HAS COME,
TO GATHER THE HARVEST IN, YET MANY UPON
THE EARTH, AND STILL WITHIN THEIR SIN,
YET GOD HAS FORETOLD MAN, JUST WHAT SIN
CAN DO, IT CAN DESTROY YOUR SOUL FOREVER,
IF IT’S PLEASURE’S YOU PURSUE, YET THERE IS A
WAY WHICH SEEMS RIGHT TO MAN, A WAY THEY
BELIEVE TO BE TRUE, BUT THAT IS THE WAY, TO A
LOST ETERNITY, WHEN IN JESUS, THEY COULD
HAVE COME THROUGH, FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS
DEATH, FOR GOD HAS TOLD US SO, BUT IF YOU TAKE
JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOUR, THEN DEATH, YOU SHALL
NEVER KNOW.

45.

NOW TAKE JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOUR,
NOT TOMORROW BUT TODAY,
AND HOLD HIM BY THE HAND TIGHTLY,
AND YOU’LL NEVER GO ASTRAY,
WALK WITH HIM CLOSELY, ON LIFE’S WAY
AND YOU’LL NEVER HAVE TO SHOUT,
FOR HE’LL NEVER BE FAR AWAY,
EMBRACE HIS GRACE AND KINDNESS,
SO THAT YOU MAY COME TO SHOW,
THE LOVE HE’S BESTOWED UPON YOU,
THAT OTHERS MAY COME TO KNOW,
AND TELL HIM ALL YOUR TROUBLES,
THAT HE MAY TAKE THEM ALL AWAY,
AND GIVE YOU PEACE AND HAPPINESS,
EACH AND EVERY DAY

46.

LET ME TELL YOU OF SOMEONE,
WHO I’VE COME TO KNOW,
HIS NAME IS JESUS,
AND I LOVE HIM SO,
HE CAME TO ME, WHEN HAD NO HOPE,
AND TOOK AWAY MY FEARS,
NOW I’VE FOUND HAPPINESS,
WITH JESUS THESE PAST FEW YEARS,
AND WHAT HE’S DONE FOR OTHERS,
HE SHALL DO ALSO FOR YOU,
SO OPEN YOUR HEART AND RECEIVE HIM,
AND HE’LL BE YOUR SAVIOUR TOO.

47.

THEY TOOK COUNCIL TOGETHER,
ALL WITH THE SAME INTENT,
FOR JESUS WAS IN THEIR HEARTS,
BUT THEIR HEARTS, WHERE FILLED
WITH CONTEMPT, SO THAT COUNCIL
GATHERED TOGETHER, WITH THERE
HEARTS FILLED WITH HATE, AGAINST
THE ONE, WHO COULD HAVE SAVED
THEM, FROM A HELLISH FATE, NOW
DURING THAT COUNCIL MEETING,
LITTLE ARGUMENT DID ARISE, AGAINST
THE WORKINGS OF JESUS, OR AGAINST
HIS WONDROUS SIGNS, BUT BEFORE THAT
COUNCIL WAS OVER, EACH AND ALL HAD
AGREED, TO BLAME CHRIST AS AN IMPOSTER,
BLAMING GOD,FOR THEIR OWN FOOLISH DEED

48.

NO GREATER LOVE CAN EVER BE SHOWN,
THAN ONE WHO WOULD DIE FOR A FRIEND,
YET UPON THE GROUND, FEW CAN BE FOUND,
FOR LOVE JUST ISN’T THE TREND, YET ONE DID
COME, WHO WAS GOD’S SON, AND A SACRIFICE
FOR ALL, TO SHOW GOD’S LOVE, HIS MERCIFUL
LOVE, CHRIST DIED, FOR THE GREAT AND THE
SMALL.

49.

TO MY GOD, I DO ASK, WHAT MY LORD,
IS MY LIFES TASK, O TELL ME NOW, THAT
I MAY KNOW, SO THROUGH MY LIFE, I MAY
NOT BE SLOW, OR MUST I LORD, FOREVER
WEEP, TORMENTED IN LIFE, EVEN IN SLEEP,
O TELL ME LORD, FOR I MUST KNOW, FOR MY
FLESH IS WEAK, AND MY SPIRIT IS LOW.

50.

IF YOU’RE EVER HEART BROKEN,
OR LOST IN DESPAIR,
NEVER FORGET CHRIST JESUS,
HE IS ALWAYS THERE,
SO TAKE ALL YOUR SORROWS,
AND GO TO HIM IN PRAYER, AND
ALL YOUR BURDENS HE’LL TAKE
FROM YOU, AND YOUR TROUBLES
HE WILL SHARE.

51.

O! GRACIOUS, ETERNAL FATHER, WHO CREATED ALL,
AND SENT FORTH YOUR SON JESUS, WITH SALVATION’S
CALL, YOU GAVE YOUR SON FREELY, A GIFT TO EACH
AND ALL, AND ALL YOU ASK FROM EACH OF US, IS TO
RESPOND TO SALVATION’S CALL, FOR YOU LOOKED UPON,
US SINNERS, SAW WE’D NO HOPE OF OUR OWN, SO
YOU SENT FORTH THE GIFT OF JESUS, TO SHOW US OUR
WAY HOME.

52.

LITTLE CHILDREN OF HIS LIGHT,
BE NOT AFRAID OF THE NIGHTT,
FOR WHEN DARKNESS IS ALL AROUND,
THE LIGHT OF JESUS CAN BE FOUND,
SHINING BRIGHTLY THAT WE MAY SEE,
UPON THE ROAD OF ETERNITY,
AND THROUGH HIS LIGHT,
WE SHALL COME TO KNOW,
THAT OUR LORD JESUS FEARS NO FOE

53.

OB!ETHLEHEM! O! BETHLEHEM!
KNOWN AS THE HOUSE OF BREAD.
IT WAS THERE THAT THE SAVIOUR,
AS A BABY LAID HIS HEAD,
HIS STAR, IT SHONE SO BRIGHTLY,
ENGULFING THE DARK OF THE NIGHT.
REVEALING THE GOD OF LOVE,
HIS MERCY WAS NOW IN SIGHT,
AND THERE, UPON THE HILLSIDE,
HEAVENLY ANGELS CAME DOWN.
SINGING AND REJOICING,
TELLING WHERE THE SAVIOUR COULD BE FOUND.
GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST,
AND PEACE UNTO ALL MEN,
PRAISE BE THE NAME OF JESUS,
FOR THAT BABE WHO BECAME MY FRIEND

54.

O! BREATH, OF THE RISEN LORD,
BREATHE UPON ME!
SPIRIT OF THE LIVING CHRIST,
COME FILL ME!
HOLY SPIRIT IN THY POWER,
FALL UPON ME!
BREATH OF JESUS,
BREATHE UPON ME!

55.

FATHER OF LIGHT, SHINE ON ME,
THAT YOUR LOVE, ALL MAY SEE.

FATHER OF LIGHT, LET ME SHINE,
AS THE STARS ABOVE, LOVE DEVINE,

FATHER OF LIGHT, SHINE THROUGH ME,
YOUR LIGHT IS LIFE, SETTING SOULS FREE.

FATHER OF LIGHT, YOUR SON YOU GAVE,
JESUS THE LIGHT, HOPE BEYOND THE GRAVE

56.

TO EACH AND CHRISTIAN,
THESE FEW WORDS I’D LIKE TO EXPRESS:
TO THE WORLD, YOU MAY BE NOTHING,
BUT TO GOD, YOU ARE THE BEST.
SO, IF FOR SOME APPARENT REASON,
THERE’S ONE WHO CAN’T GO ON,
DON’T CAST THAT BRETHEREN TO THE SIDE,
FOR IT’S GOD’S LOVE, YOU’LL BE TRAMPLING UPON.
FOR THIS WORLD CAN BE A CRUEL WORLD.
A WORLD WHERE CHRISTIANS DON’T BELONG,
SO, INSTEAD OF CRITICISING A FALLEN BRETHEREN,
HELP HIM, AND SHOW HIM HIS WRONG.

57.

A SHOUT, A SHOUT, THEN CHRIST SHALL COME OUT,
AND THOSE UPON THE EARTH SHALL BE IN NO DOUBT.
FOR OUT OF THE GROUND CHRIST’S DEAD SHALL ABOUND,
FOR ONLY IN HIS PROMISE, IS ETERNAL LIFE FOUND.

58.

FORGIVE ME HEAVENLY FATHER,
FOR I HAVE GONE ASTRAY.
I LEFT YOUR GREEN PASTURES,
AND WENT ANOTHER WAY.
FAR FROM YOUR FOLD I WANDERED,
WITH EYES THAT COULD NOT SEE.
NOT KNOWING JUST HOW STUPID,
ONE CAN COME TO BE.
YET YOU IN ALL YOUR MERCY, LORD,
I KNOW YOU SHALL FORGIVE ME.
AS I KNEEL HERE IN PRAYER,
POURING OUT MY HEART’S PLEA.
JUST ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS,
FOR ALL THE SIN I’VE DONE.
JUST WANTING TO CLING TO JESUS,
YOUR WONDERFUL PRECIOUS SON

59.

CHRIST, HE WON THE VICTORY,
OVER THE DEVIL AND HIS SON.
THE BATTLE FOR DEATH IS OVER,
IT’S FINISHED AND NOW IS DONE.
BUT THE STRUGGLE STILL CONTINUES,
WITH THE DEVIL AND HIS SON.
FOR MORTALS MUST BE CAREFUL,
THAT TO THE DEVIL THEY DON’T SUCCUMB,
FOR WE ONLY HAVE OUR VICTORY,
IF IT’S JESUS WE TRUST IN.
FOR SHOULD THE DEVIL KILL US,
THROUGH JESUS WE STILL WIN.
SO COME ALL YOU CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS,
FOR IN CHRIST THE VICTORY IS WON.
IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU,
VICTORIOUS IS GOD’S WONDERFUL SON.

60.

MY LORD; MY LORD; FORGIVE ME,
FOR ALL THE WRONG I’VE DONE.
AND LET ME LOOK UPON THE FACE,
OF YOUR GRACIOUS SON,

FOR MY LIFE IS NEARLY OVER,
AND I KNOW I HAVEN’T GOT LONG.
AND WITH AL MY HEART, I PRAY TO THEE,
LET ME JOIN IN THE ANGEL’S SONG,

THEN THESE DARK CLOUDS THAT SURROUND ME,
SHALL JUST FADE AWAY.
AND THIS SHADOW OF DEATH SHALL VANISH,
FROM ME THIS VERY DAY,

FOR YOU LORD, KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU,
AND HOW I CAME TO KNOW,
THAT YOU WERE THE ONLY SAVIOUR,
WHO WAS ABLE TO SAVE MY SOUL,

NOW MY LIFE IS DRIFTING FROM ME,
AND ONE LAST JOURNEY MUST I MAKE,
IT’LL BE ACROSS THE RIVER JORDAN,
THEN I’LL ENTER THROUGH HEAVEN’S GATE.

61.

I PRAY THE LORD SHALL KEEP,
IN HIS LOVING ARMS,
WHERE I KNOW THAT NOTHING CAN HARM ME,
AND I’M SAFE FROM SATAN’S CHARMS.

I PRAY THE LORD SHALL KEEP,
AND HOLD ME OH SO TIGHT,
JUST LIKE A FATHER, WHO HOLDS HIS CHILD,
WHEN FRIGHTENED IN THE NIGHT.

I PRAY THE LORD SHALL KEEP ME,
AND TAKE AWAY MY FEARS,
AS I GROW OLD AND FEEBLE,
IN THE COMING OF LIFE’S LAST YEARS

62.

I’D JUST LIKE TO THANK YOU LORD,
FOR ALL THAT YOU HAVE DONE,
THROUGHOUT THE YEARS I STRUGGLED,
WHEN THERE WAS NO OTHER ONE.

YOU GAVE ME STRENGTH OF FAITH, O LORD,
WHEN I WANTED TO RUN AWAY,
YOU HELD ME CLOSE TO YOU,
SO THAT I WOULD’NT GO ASTRAY.

NOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED FOR ME, MY LORD,
AND I DON’T STRUGGLE ANY MORE,
AND WITH ALL MY HEART AND SOUL, MY LORD,
“YOU” I DO ADORE.

63.

ON THE DAY OF JUDGMENT,
MANY SHALL SURELY CRY,
O! LORD HOW MUCH WE LOVED YOU,
YET THAT SHALL BE A LIE.

ON THE DAY OF JUDGMENT,
MANY SHALL SURELY SAY,
O! LORD HOW MUCH WE SPOKE OF YOU,
YET THEIR HEARTS WERE FAR AWAY.

ON THE DAY OF JUDGMENT,
CHRIST SHALL DEAL A BLOW,
FOR HE SHALL OPEN THEIR HEARTS,
AND THEIR LIES HE SHALL SHOW.

ON THE DAY OF JUDGMENT,
ALL THE LIES THAT PEOPLE DO TELL,
SHALL BE REVEALED BY CHRIST,
AND THEIR REWARD SHALL BE IN HELL.

64.

LORD, I’M A COMING, O! LORD I’M A COMING,
COMING HOME TO THE PROMISED LAND,
NO MORE SORROW, NO MORE GRIEVING,
NO MORE PAIN IN THE PROMISED LAND.

OH; SWEET JESUS, MY SWEET JESUS,
SAVIOUR OF MY PRECIOUS SOUL,
TAKE MY HAND, OH; TAKE MY HAND,
AND BRING ME INTO THE PROMISED LAND.

LORD; I’M A COMING, O LORD I’M COMING,
COMING HOME TO THE GLORY OF GOD;
ACROSS THAT RIVER; THE RIVER JORDAN,
TO THE NEW JERUSALEM WHERE I’LL BELONG,

LORD; HOW I LOVE YOU, O LORD HOW I LOVE YOU,
SWEET SAVIOUR, YOU I ADORE;
FOR THERE’S NO OTHER, LORD NO OTHER,
WHO CAN GUIDE ME TO HEAVEN’S SHORE,

LORD; I’M A COMING, O LORD I’M A COMING,
TO LIVE IS CHRIST, TO DIE IS GAIN,
FOR I SHALL SEE, O LORD I SHALL SEE,
THE FACE OF GOD, THE ALMIGHTY,

OH; MY SAVIOUR, MY SWEET SAVIOUR,
YOU CLEANSED MY SOUL, AND SET ME FREE;
IN YOUR PRESENCE, OH IN YOUR PRESENCE,
I SHALL DWEEL FOR ETERNITY.

65.

THERE COMES A TIME IN ALL OUR LIVES,
WHEN WE ALL MUST DECIDE;
WHICH ROAD WE SHALL TAKE,
THE NARROW OR THE WIDE,

FOR CHRIST SHALL NOT CONDEMN US,
WE’LL DO IT ON OUR OWN;
FOR IT SHALL BE OUR OWN DECISION,
AS TO OUR ETERNAL HOME,

AND WHEN YOU MAKE YOUR DECISION,
AS TO WHICH ROAD YOU SHALL TAKE;
THE MINUTE YOUR LIFE ENDS ON EARTH,
YOU’LL HAVE SEALED YOUR ETERNAL FATE.

66.

I CRIED THAT NIGHT YOU LEFT ME,
AND AS I WAS LEFT ALONE,
MY HEART WAS SO GRIEF STRICKEN,
AS I SAT HERE IN OUR HOME,
THE PAIN HAD ALL LEFT YOU,
WITH NO SUFFERING ANYMORE,
AND UPON YOUR FACE THERE WAS A SMILE,
WHICH TOLD ME SO MUCH MORE,
FOR I KNOW THAR CHRIST CAME FOR YOU,
AND TOOK YOU TO HIS HOME,
AND THROUGH YOUR SMILE I COULD TELL,
YOU WHERE SITTING BY HIS THRONE.

67.

BEHOLD THE CUP OF SALVATION,
GOD’S HOLDING IT OUT TODAY,
STRETCHING OUT HIS ARM WITH LOVE,
THAT NONE SHOULD GO ASTRAY,

BEHOLD THE CUP OF SALVATION,
FOR IN IT GOD’S LOVE IS SHOWN,
PUT OUT YOUR HAND AND RECEIVE IT,
THAT IN YOU, GOD’S LOVE MAYBE SOWN,

BEHOLH THE CUP OF SALVATION,
GIVEN FREELY TO EACH AND ALL,
A GIFT FROM GOD THE FATHER,
THAT IN CHRIST WE SHALL NOT FALL,

BEHOLD THE CUP OF SALVATION,
THAT YOU AND I MAYBE SAVED,
TO HAVE A HOPE AFTER DEATH,
A HOPE BEYOND THE GRACE,

BEHOLD THE CUP OF SALVATION,
THAT SINNERS MAY COME TO KNOW,
THROUGH HIS SON JESUS,
HIS LOVE HE DID BESTOW,

BEHOLD THE CUP OF SALVATION,
FOR SINNERS LIKE YOU AND I,
FOR CHRIST JESUS, WENT TO CALVARY,
AND IN OUR PLACE, HE DID DIE.

68.

WHEN LIFE’S BURDENS FALL UPON YOU,
AND YOUR HEART IS ACHING SORE,
AND YOU BELIEVE THERE’S NO ESCAPE,
IN A LIFE THAT YOU DEPLORE,
TURN YOUR THOUGHTS TO JESUS,
FOR HE TRULY LOVES YOU SO,
AND IF YOU ACCEPT HIM AS YOUR SAVIOUR,
YOU’RE BURDENS HE’LL TAKE FROM YOU,
AND WHEN YOU’RE CALM AND QUITE,
HE’LL TOUCH YOUR ACHING HEART,
THEN LIFE SHALL HAVE A NEW MEANING,
A NEW LIFE FOR YOU TO START

69.

THEY SAT THEIR CAUSE IS JUST AND RIGHT,
AND WITH THEIR GUNS THEY DO FIGHT,
AND WHEN THEY MURDER, THEY CLAIM THE
RIGHT, TO KILL THEIR ENEMY IN THEIR SIGHT,

THEY SAY THEIR CAUSE IS JUST AND TRUE,
FOR THEY ARE OPPRESSED, WHAT ELSE CAN
THEY DO, THEY SAY THAT GOD IS ON THEIR SIDE,
YET HIS TEACHINGS THEY CANNOT ABIDE,

THEY SAY THEIR CAUSE MUST GO ON,
FOR GOD IS WITH THEM, WHEN THEY PLANT A BOMB,
AND IT MATTERS NOT, WHO THEY KILL OR MAIM,
YOUNG OR OLD, THEY’LL ALL THE SAME.

THEY SAY THEIR CAUSE IS JUST AND RIGHT,
FOR GOD IS WITH THEM, IN ALL HIS MIGHT,
YET IN THEIR BLINDNESS, THEY CANNOT SEE,
THE GOD THEY SERVE IS NOT HEAVENLY.

THEY SAY THEIR CAUSE IS JUST AND TRUE,
YET IN THEIR HATRED, THEY KNOW NOT WHAT
THEY DO, FOR THE ONE THEY SERVE IS SATAN OF OLD,
IN SERVING HIM, THEY SHALL LOSE THEIR SOULS.

THEY SAY THEIR CAUSE MUST GO ON,
FOR THEY ARE RIGHT, AND THE REST ARE WRONG,
BUT IN THEIR ANGER THEY SEAL THEIR FATE,
AND THEY SHALL ENTER, THROUGH HELL’S GATE.

IN ALL THEIR CAUSES THEY MURDER AND MAIM,
YET ALL THEIR WARS, SHALL BE IN VAIN
FOR THE DAY SHALL COME, WHEN THEY’LL STAND ASHAMED,
FOR UPON THEIR SHOULDERS SHALL LIE THE BLAME.

70.

HOW DOES ONE TELL, A WEEPING CHILD,
THAT THE FATHER IT LOVES HAS VIOLENLTY DIED?

HOW DOES ONE TELL, A WIFE THAT MOURNS,
THAT HER HUSBAND DIED THAT PEACE MAY BE BORN?

HOW DOES ONE TELL, A MOTHER WHO CRIES,
THAT HER SON IS DEAD, WHOM SHE IDOLIZED?

HOW DOES ONE TELL, A FATHER WHO GRIEVES,
THAT THE SON HE ADORED, NO LONGER BREATHES?

HOW DOES ONE MEASURE ALL THE TEARS,
THAT THE INNOCENT SHED THROUGHOUT THE YEARS?

HOW DOES ONE BALANCE RIGHT FROM WRONG,
WHEN THE GUILTY ARE PITIED, YET THE INNOCENT SUFFER ON?

WHERE LIES JUSTICES UPON THE EARTH,
FOR DID NOT GOD, GIVE MAN BIRTH?

AND ARE NOT HIS LAWS TO BE OBEYED,
FOR IT IS GOD’S LAWS, THAT GUILTY MEN DREAD

71.

IN MY MOMENT OF DESPAIR,
WHEN I BELIEVED THAT NO ONE CARED,
I WENT TO MY ROOM, AND JUST SAT THERE,
FILLED WITH NOTHING, BUT MY DESPAIR,
FOR LONELINESS I’D COME TO KNOW,
NO ONE THERE, JUST ALONE,
SILENCE SURROUNDS ME EVERYWHERE,
IN MY MOMENT OF DESPAIR,
CRYING OUT IN MY DESPAIR,
WANTING SOMEONE JUST TO CARE,
FEELING AS IF I CAN’T GO ON,
JUST SITTING HERE ALL ALONE,
YEARNING WITHIN MY ACHING HEART,
WHICH, I FEEL IS COMING APART,
I CRY TO GOD; ARE YOU THERE?
PLEASE COME TO ME, END THIS DESPAIR,
AND IN THAT MOMENT OF MY DESPAIR,
I FELT A WARMTH FROM SOMEWHERE,
AND NOW I CAN TRULY DECLARE,
THAT CHRIST JESUS IS MY SAVIOUR,
WHO ENDED MY DESPAIR!

72.

THEY SAID TO ME, ENJOY YOUR,
FOR LIFE’S SHORT YOU KNOW,
IT WAS ALL BECAUSE I TOLD THEM,
THAT I LOVED JESUS SO,
THEY LOOKED AT ME IN AMAZEMENT,
AND THESE WORDS THEY DID REPLY,
ENJOY YOURSELF, ENJOY YOURSELF,
FOR ONE DAY WE ALL MUST DIE,
BUT AS I LOOKED UPON THEIR FACES,
HAPPINESS I COULD NOT SEE,
IF THIS IS WHAT THEY CALL ENJOYMENT,
I’M SORRY IT’S NOT FOR ME.

73.

WHO WAS THE MAN WHO PUT FORTH HIS HAND,
AND CALMED THE RAGING SEA!

WHO WAS THE MAN WHO PUT FORTH HIS HAND,
AND DEMONS THEY DID FLEE!

WHO WAS THE MAN WHO PUT FORTH HIS HAND,
AND MADE THE BLIND TO SEE!

WHO WAS THE MAN WHO PUT FORTH HIS HAND,
AND CRIPPLES COULD WALK, LIKE ME!

WHO WAS THE MAN WHO PUT FORTH HIS HAND,
AND DEATH COULD NO LONGER BE!

HE IS MY LORD AND CREATOR,
WHO CAME TO SET SINNERS FREE,

HIS NAME IS CHRIST JESUS,
AND YOUR SAVIOUR HE’S LONGING TO BE.

74.

LOVE IS PATIENT,
LOVE IS KIND,
LOVE FORGIVES,
LOVE IS NOT JEALOUS,
LOVE IS NOT ARROGANT,
LOVE IS NOT PROVOKED,
LOVE IS NOT UNBECOMING,
LOVE DOES NOT BRAG,
LOVE REJOICES IN THE TRUTH,
GOD IS LOVE.
FORGIVE THEM! WAS LOVE’S CRY,
FOR LOVE WAS NAILED TO A CROSS,
SO THAT I MAY NOT DIE,
TWO HANDS STRETCHED OUT,
FOR THE WHOLE WORLD TO SEE,
THAT GOD TOOK OUR PLACE,
AND DIED FOR YOU AND ME.

75.

LIFE’S A MYSTERY, IT COMES AND GOES!
WHEN DEATH ARRIVES, NO ONE REALLY KNOWS?
FROM THE DAY WE ARE BORN, WE ARE BORN TO DIE!
THIS IS THE TRUTH AND NOT A LIE!
A SMALL, THIN LINE SEPARATED THE TWO!
WHEN LIFE HERE IS OVER; WE ARE THROUGH!
MANY ASK AND REASON WHY,
SOME JUST SAY “WE LIVE AND DIE!”
THE MYSTERY OF LIFE IS A WONDERFUL THING!
FROM LIFE BY LIFE THE TRUTH DOES SING!
AND TO THE TRUTH, YOU MUST GO!
HE REVEALED HIMSELF THAT YOU MAY KNOW!
WHICH PATH TO TAKE, WHICH WAY TO GO!
LOVE THE MYSTERY WHICH HAS NO WOE

76.

FATHER OF LIGHT, SHINE ON ME,
THAT YOUR LOVE, ALL MAY SEE,
FATHER OF LIGHT, LET ME SHINE,
AS THE STARS ABOVE, LOVE DEVINE,
FATHER OF LIGHT, SHINE THROUGH ME,
YOUR LIGHT IS LIFE, SETTING SOULS FREE,
FATHER OF LIGHT, YOUR SON YOU GAVE,
JESUS THE LIGHT, HOPE BEYOND THE GRAVE.

77.

THEY MARCHED WITH ALL THEIR BANNERS RAISED IN THE SKY,
BUT CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME, THE REASON WHY;
SO MANY PEOPLE, FOR A CAUSE MUST DIE?
FOR I, MYSELF DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY.

THEY FIGHT FOR A CAUSE, AND A LAND IS TORN,
AND BECAUSE OF WAR, HATRED IS BORN,
YET THEIR STRUGGLE IS LIKE, FLESH WITH A THRON,
AS THEY EACH DRAPE THEIR COFFINS, AS THEY EACH MOURN.

WHEN SHALL THEIR STRUGGLES AND WARS ALL CEASE?
WHEN SHALL THE PEOPLE HAVE THEIR PEACE?
MUST WE GO ON AND WATCH CORPSES INCREASE?
STAND UP GOD’S PEOPLE, BEFORE WE’RE ALL DECEASED!

A LAND IS TORN, WHEN LOVE GROWS COLD,
THEN MANY A YOUNG ONE SHALL NEVER GROW OLD,
LIFE’S BLOOD POURS OUT, BECAUSE OF LIES THAT ARE TOLD,
AND INTO SATAN’S KINGDOM, LIVES ARE SOLD.

78.

A CROSS THE BEAUTIFUL MEADOW,
WHERE I OFTEN IN QUITENESS STAND,
BESIDE THE GRACIFUL RIVER,
THAT FLOWS THROUGHOUT THE LAND,

THINKING OF THE CREATOR,
WHO SPOKE AND ALL WAS MADE,
FOR IN THE TWINKLING OF EYE,
THE DARKNESS AND VOID DID FADE,

EXALT OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR,
FOR ALL THE BEAUTY THAT WE SEE,
FOR ONLY A GOD OF LOVE,
WOULD GIVE IT TO YOU AND ME.

79.

FATHER ALWAYS IN THY HAND,
IN YOU I TAKE MY STAND,
WHEN TROUBLES COME UPON ME,
AND THE WORLD WAGES WAR,
WHEN MY HEART IS HURTING,
AND MY SPIRIT IN DESPAIR,
I KNOW YOU'RE STANDING WITH ME,
FOR I FEEL YOUR PRESENTS THERE,
LIKE THE WIND THAT BLOWS,
OR THE AIR THAT I BREATH,
I MAY NOT SEE THEM,YET I
KNOW THAT THEY ARE THERE,
JUST LIKE YOUR PRESENTS,
WHICH SURROUNDS ME, LIKE THE
WIND THAT COVERS THE LAND,
I KNOW YOUR WITH ME,HOLDING ME
IN YOUR HAND,KEEPING ME SAFE
AND FREE.

80.

TEACH ME THY WAYS O LORD,
THAT I MAY WALK IN TRUTH,
KNIT MY HEART TO YOUR HEART LORD,
THAT I MAY KNOW YOUR NAME,
YOU ARE MY ROCK O LORD,
MY REDEEMER AND MY FRIEND,
LET ALL WHO SEEK YOU,
REJOICE IN YOUR HOLY NAME,
FOR I LOVE YOUR NAME O LORD,
AND THE PLACE WHERE THY GLORY DWELLS
BLESSED BE MY ROCK O LORD,
FOR SALVATION BELONGS TO YOU,O LORD.
