There are so
many things in life .... That I long to do But I won't do any till You say ... "This one's for you" I won't make no speeches 'till You tell me what to say I won't go a' running till You tell me to run away 'Cos Lord .... You've got my life planned out (And) Lord .... You know what my future is about (And) Lord .... Yours is the greatest love on earth (And) Lord .... I'll show You just what it's worth By giving my everything to You When I wake up in the morning and the sun .... Is shining bright I know it's not just the sunshine, But your love's pure light And even when it's raining, and bad things come to mind All I do is think of You and the good things I find |
Hey! I've
got something to say - Saving everything for a rainy day? It's not the way this life was ever meant to be You worry on but you don't know why What really happens when I die Is there a reason somewhere behind it all? Turn your head to the sunshine Look right through the rain Fly your magic carpet 'till He comes back again The answers aren't plain but he knows the reason why O Lord, it makes me cry So many wars, so many people die O there's got to be an answer, got to be a reason why O Lord, I feel so tired I'm all strung up but I don't know why O I've got to have a helper to help me through my life O Lord I've had my fill I'm goin' back to that ancient hill Where the Answers to all my problems had to die It's not the end 'cos He rose again And He'll attend to the needs of men If you need some answers now, He's still around |

AGAPE Sam Pennington from the CD CC2 |
Won't you
stay here tonight? Won't you pray here tonight? Powers of darkness are gathering their might Won't you take your stand with me? I'm on My own now, can't you see? You'll all be leaving soon you know? It has to be! Why do you lie there dreaming, While evil hearts are scheming death for Me? Why do you lie there sleeping, While angels fall down weeping tears for me? Oh Peter, won't you pray with Me? I close my eyes I can see the wood. A rugged cross all stained with blood It's Me that's hanging there ... that's understood This cup of suffering so deep, Each bitter sip of pain I keep I'm going to die for you ... You're still asleep! |
Born of a
virgin, an unwanted child The gentle Jesus so meek and so mild Hated by royalty for Who He was The Son of God, the Prince, the Prince of love He's My Son, in Whom I am well pleased He's My Son, in Whom I am well pleased John the Baptist was surprised When Jesus came to him to be baptised A Power from above was given to Him The Spirit of God came down, down like a dove Up above Jerusalem Satan took Jesus to tempt Him "Worship me, I'll give You all You can see" He said, "Satan! Get back, back, back behind Me!" People all around Me are pushin' to see Shoutin', "Jesus won't You please heal me" He said, "I am the way, I am the door, I will heal you all" |
Has your
faith ever faltered? Does your mind tell you lies? Do your eyes not see what you know is true? A heart without love soon dies I know that I'm no great speaker There's much of God's word I can't understand And I can see holes in my holiness But maybe I can lend a hand So as we join our hands together Remember the things God's done for us His death we can't repay But we can live in agape May our love, may our love May our love increase I can see cruelty in nature Where only the strong are alive I've watched a bird be thrown from its family nest And left too weak to survive I know that I'm no great healer So many times I've been wrong Yet I know by the love of God Even the weak can be strong |

Mind full of
holidays and raise in pays Summer day's salad with mayonnaise One only prays for no rain or haze, love has almost gone Was it just a passin' phase when you stopped to gaze In a maze filled with prayer and praise Now your life displays that you've changed your ways Still His love for you carries on You say that you've no time for religion You tell me it's caused too many wars You say that your life is for livin' I tell you through Jesus Christ, life can be yours It doesn't take when you know you're wrong And you end up on your knees It's just a short prayer and you know He's there You say, "Lord forgive me please" There's a time to change, to re-arrange You'll find there's more to life For he who finds the Son of God finds life He who knows the Son of God knows life For he who has the Son of God has life |
Oh Gladsome
Light! Oh grace Of God the Father's face The eternal splendour wearing Celestial Holy Blest, Our Saviour Jesus Christ Joyful in Thine appearing Now 'ere day fadeth quite, We see the evening light Our wanted hymn outpouring Father of might unknown, Thee His incarnate Son And Holy Spirit adoring To Thee of right belongs All praise of holy songs Oh Son of God, life-giver Thee therefore oh Most High, The world doth glorify And shall exalt forever |
BLACKBIRD Sam Pennington from the CD CC1 |
SHOUT Sam Pennington from the CD CC2 |
YESTERDAY, FOREVER Paul Lalgee. Eddie Boyes from the CD CC2 |
The
blackbird sings his song So comes the morning Autumn passes with the fall Young men dream as old men Imagining it's spring again And wishing winter wouldn't call Without a warning Like a thief in the night Death is stealing Another day of my life |
Don't say you
can't when you know that you can With the help of Jesus you'll be a better man - ahh If you have life, shout Jesus lives in you Don't lay low, hide your face in a crowd If you're gonna praise Him you've gotta praise Him out loud If you have life, shout Jesus lives in you Don't you say that Jesus never heard of rhythm and blues 'Cos He lives in me, and ain't that sweet rock and roll news Don't you say that Jesus never heard of rhythm and blues 'Cos He lives in me, and ain't that sweet soul news If you've got a guitar then play it If you've got a voice then say it If you've got a message write it on the wall If you have life, shout Jesus lives in you You can be deep but don't get buried in the ground If you know something spread it around and around If you have life, shout Jesus lives in you No time for whispers, they don't make much sound If you've found something, why don't you tell the world what you've found If you have life, shout Jesus lives in you |
Jesus,
the same yesterday forever Jesus, time hasn't changed You You're just the same And one day every knee will bow to Your Name You spoke like no man ever spoke No compromise no fear The simple people understood What wise men couldn't hear The well informed announced that You were just too good to last They're still making that announcement Though centuries have passed They say You died by accident Two thousand years ago Your bones lie buried underground Your death the final blow They say You can't relate to me But this is what I know You didn't share that point of view Last time I spoke to You Jesus, the same yesterday forever Jesus, the same yesterday forever Jesus, the same yesterday forever Jesus, the same yesterday forever |
WAR Paul Lalgee, Eddie Boyes from the CD CC2 |
SECRET PLACE Paul Lalgee from the CD CC3 |
I CAN'T GO ON ALONE (DRIVER) Sam Pennington from the CD CC1 |
Christian
posters on your wall, But your Bible's out of sight You haven't prayed for many days, But you're managing all right Let me tell you brother It's no playground it's a fight Will you stand for Jesus When your day has turned to night? Arm yourself for war. The battle has begun And the victory has been won You can handle the devil's tricks, It's just sin that lets you down But you're forgiven anyway, So you don't even frown You tell me he is a loser, But you act as though he's dead Listenin' to your radio, And using "rock" for your bread Arm yourself for war. The battle has begun And the victory has been won When we are weak we are strong When we are weak we are strong |
You want a
darkened hole to hide yourself away To play the lonely role of reject dressed in grey The hand of guilt that grips has pulled you to your knees No prayer will move the lips pain has caused to freeze Don't just lie there feelin' sorry for yourself Come on out you're dealin' with Jesus His love is all around, there's nowhere you can go Every secret place is found in Jesus You're never beyond reach of arms that bled for you Can't be rejected by a heart that's split in two The thorns that pierced His brow have left a lasting mark His thoughts will follow you down into the dark The Son is risen, light is everywhere The dawn will break your stony heart Leave your prison, and leave the shadows there A happy ending needs a start |
One Sunday
evening I went driving The road I was on, it did fork One was a big wide road The other was small wouldn't take much load Well you can guess the one I had to take Make no mistake Now I can't, no I can't go it alone For a map I had a Bible For a car an old guitar Without wheels you won't get far Driving a guitar car You need someone to hold the brake Make no mistake Now I can't, no I can't go it alone Lord, You are my signpost You show the way Jesus is my co-driver along the way Along the way, along the way Now I can't, no I can't go it alone I may not be a perfect driver I've left that road so many times But with the help of the RAC The Royal Association of Christianity No repair is too hard to make Make no mistake Now I can't, no I can't go it alone |
REJOICE (PRODICAL SON) Peter Davies from the CD CC3 |
YOU'RE WRONG Paul Lalgee from the CD CC2 |
THE LORD HAS DONE GREAT THINGS Peter Davies from the CD CC4 |
Though it was
morning, It seemed just like the middle of the night Though I've got everything I need, Somehow things just don't seem right When you've got money, You've got places to go You have around you many people But there are none that you know I'd heard the warning, But I felt I could not let life pass me by And now the only thing I can look forward to Are things which do not satisfy But just one day Where I used to live Is better than a thousand here And all it can give (I) Think I'll go back homeAnd make my peace with my Father I'll say I've sinned against heaven and against You (I) Wonder what He'll say? It felt so right, There seemed so much more here than I'd got at home And now I've had my fill, And there's an emptiness and I'm left here alone You taste the world And it gives you a thirst So you try its pleasures But they just make it worse It must be over, Even if I went back once again Things could never be just as it was And I'm the one to blame Lost and forgotten. I'm just paying my dues But just to ask Him, Well there's nothing to lose (I) Think I'll go back homeAnd make my peace with my Father (I'll) Say I've sinned against heaven and against You (I) Wonder what He'll say? Rejoice with me! Rejoice with me! Rejoice (rejoice, rejoice, rejoice) with me Rejoice (rejoice, rejoice, rejoice) with me Rejoice with me! I've got my son, can't you see? Rejoice with me! I've found my son, at last he's free, rejoice with me Get him the best, I'm glad to see him home again |
He came to
fight the Romans He came to set our people free That's what you're tryin' to tell me The people followed Him Just what you've been lookin' for Someone to lead our holy war But I'm not sure He's into killin' Romans friends or countrymen He says we've got to love our enemies You're wrong, you've got it all wrong You're wrong Judas, you're all twisted up, you're wrong A simple carpenter Who didn't really understand The power games we play to rule this land A King without a country A God without a worshipper Maybe He was mad or just a dreamer But you don't sleep too much at night You know you share the blame You washed your hands but stains of blood remain You're wrong, you've got it all wrong You're wrong Pilate, you're all twisted up, you're wrong It's all behind us now Tomorrow's world's in view A perfect world for me and you And so we diet here While others starve and die Or plan to drop deterrents from the sky But social work and healthy livin' Are superficial parts The problem of the world is in our hearts You're wrong, you've got it all wrong You're wrong --- You're all twisted up, you're wrong |
He has done
all things well (He has done all things well) He makes me sing (He makes me sing) And in my heart there swells (And in my heart there swells) Praise to the King (Hallelujah) He keeps me in His hand (He keeps me in His hand) He watches over me (He watches me) I bow to His command (I bow to His command) The immensity of His love I see (Hallelujah) Once I knew nothing of His goodness But now my very life has been changed The Lord has done great things for me The Lord has done great things for me The Lord has done great things for me The Lord has done great things for me In the shadow of His wing (In the shadow of His wing) I feel secure (I feel secure) And in my heart there springs (And in my heart there springs) A hallelujah (Hallelujah) He keeps me in His hand (He keeps me in His hand) He watches over me (He watches me) I bow to His command (I bow to His command) The immensity of His love I see (Hallelujah) Once I knew nothing of His goodness But now my very life has been changed He remembers my sin no more forever He remembers my sin no more forever Be confident my heart the Lord's been good to me Be confident my heart the Lord's been good to me |
