Ephesians 5:20
Words by Bob Hartman and Dino Elefante
Music by John Elefante
I have a thankful heart that you have given me
And it can only come from you
There is no way to begin to tell you how I feel
There are no words to express how you've become so real
Jesus, you've given me so much I can't repay
I have no offering
There is no way to begin to tell you how I feel
There's nothing more I can say and no way to repay
Your warming touch that melts my heart of stone
Your steadfast love - I'll never be alone
I have a thankful heart that you have given me
And it can only come from you
I have a thankful heart; words don't come easily
But I am sure you can see my thankful heart
Help me be a man of God
A man who's after Your own heart
Help me show my gratitude
The King has planned the supper
For the wedding of His Son
And He sent out His servants
To invite the chosen ones
But they would not receive them
And they all refused to come
So He sent them to the highways
Inviting everyone
They came from every direction
They entered into the gates of the One
The One who called them
And gave them the right to sit next to His Son
Do you see
It's your invitation
Your presence is requested
At the marriage of the Lamb
It's your invitation
To be the guest of honor
At the wedding of the Great I Am
They'll come from every nation, tribe, and tongue
All those with ears to hear Him knocking
There will be rich and poor alike
There will be old and young
He stands outside of the door
Not all will hear Him but there will be some
They'll hear the voice of the Bride
And the voice of the Spirit say, "Come"
Do you hear
It's your invitation
Your presence is requested
At the marriage of the Lamb
It's your invitation
To be the guest of honor
At the wedding of the Great I Am
Oh, He's God's worthy Lamb
We'll drink from the Water of Life
In garments of white
With no end in sight
Did you know
It's your invitation
Your presence is requested
At the marriage of the Lamb
It's your invitation
To be the guest of honor
At the Great I Am
It's your invitation
Your presence is requested
At the marriage of the Lamb
It's your invitation
To be the guest of honor
There's a rumble in the distance
A trembling in the air
It's uncertain in direction
Does it come from here or there
It's approaching by the minute
Does it lead you to despair
Feel it shakin' your foundation
when you haven't got a prayer
Everything that can be shaken will be shakin' from within
Better have your house in order when the shakin' begins
Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'
Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'
Shakin', shakin' the house
You examine your foundation
Does it stand on rock or sand
When the smoke clears, does it bring fears
When houses fall or stand
In the fire of refining
With flames too high to douse
You remember someone saying
It's beginning in the house
Everything that can be shaken will be shakin' from within
Better have your house in order when the shakin' begins
Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'
Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin', shakin', shakin', shakin'
But don't fear when it comes near
And you see the raging fire
If you hold fast it will all pass
Till your heart has His desire
Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'
Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'
Long-distance run from darkness
Headed into the sun
And it seems like eternity
Till this race is won
Soul and spirit weak and weary
Strength was was almost gone
When a soothing gentle breeze carried me further on
I've got my second wind, Spirit's coming again
I've got a new revelation from the King of Kings
Found my second wind, feel my strength returning again
Returning again
Through a desert night in darkness
Racing toward the light
There were too many hills to climb
And too many battles to fight
Then distant lights were calling
Beckoned me as a guest
When I found the oasis there
I entered into a rest
Just when I thought I couldn't run any longer
I got my second wind
Just when I thought I'd never be any stronger
I got my second wind
Just when I thought that I would fall into darkness
I got my second wind
Just when I thought that I would fail every test
Onward Christian soldiers, marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus going on before
Onward then, ye people, join our happy throng
Blend with ours your voices in a triumph song
Christ, the Royal Master, leads against the foe
Forward into battle, see His banners go, oh
Onward Christian soldiers, marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus going on before
Crowns and thrones may perish, kingdoms rise and wane
But the cross of Jesus constant will remain
Marching as to war
(Marching as to war)
Oh, we're marching as to war
(Marching as to war)
Oh, we're marching as to war
Onward then, ye people, join our happy throng
Blend with ours your voices in a triumph song
Onward Christian soldiers, marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus going on before
Marching as to war
(Marching as to war)
Oh, we're marching as to war
You are filled with compassion and mercy and grace
With Your banner of love over me
I am longing to see You one day face to face
And to be with You endlessly
Lord, how lovely You are to me
Lovely Lord, You are all to me
Lovely Lord, full of purity
Worthy of honor and majesty
Lord, how lovely You are to me
You are bright as the sunrise and fairest of all
Unto You all the glory will be
You are God of creation and Lord of my life
I will worship You faithfully
Lord, how lovely You are to me
Lovely Lord, You are all to me
Lovely Lord, full of purity
Worthy of honor and majesty
Lord, how lovely You are to me
We will worship the name of the Holiest One
We will worship Your excellency
We will give You the glory for things You have done
And be thankful eternally
Lord, how lovely You are to me
Lovely Lord, You are all to me
Lovely Lord, full of purity
Worthy of honor and majesty
Lord, how lovely You are to me
Oh, lovely Lord, You are all to me
Lovely Lord, full of purity
Worthy of honor and majesty
Lord, how lovely You are to me
Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord
Let every creature under God's sun praise the Lord
Let all the mountains, let all the valleys
Let all the hillsides sing of His glory
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord
Israel had a war to fight but the Lord
Showed them the secret
He said the battle this day is mine
But you must listen how to do it
Put your singers first in front of the rest
Let them praise and sing to me
And you will see the salvation of your God
And watch your enemies flee
Paul and Silas were thrown in jail
For preaching the gospel of Christ
though in chains they praised his name
singing songs in the night
Just then an earthquake shook the place
And the chains and the doors were loosened
then the jailer ran in scared to death
And that day he found salvation
Words & Music by Laurie Klein
Chorus:
I love you, Lord
And I lift my voice
To worship You
Oh, my soul rejoice!
Take joy my King
In what You hear
Let it be a sweet, sweet sound in Your ear
CHORUS
I love you, Lord...
Matthew 25:35-46
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
Another day in Nigeria the children beg for bread
The crops failed, the well ran dry
When they lost the watershed
A baby dies, its mother cries the children gather 'round
They're wondering what the day will bring
Will they be the next one found
Do you dare to look into their hollow eyes
In the crowded sheds the children lay their heads
To escape the Haitian heat
The hunger pains drive them to the street
Wondering if today they'll eat
Some found food in the refuse heap
Others find disease
Some find it harder just to live
When they can die with ease
Do you dare to look into their hollow eyes
The least of these is hungry
The least of these is sick
The least of these needs clothing
The least of these needs drink
The least of these knows sorrow
The least of these knows grief
The least of these suffers pain
There's a step that we all take alone
An appointment we have with the great unknown
Like a vapor this life is just waiting to pass
Like the flowers that fade, like the withering grass
But life seems so long and death so complete
And the grave an impossible potion to cheat
But there's One who has been there and still lives to tell
There is One who has been through both heaven and hell
And the grave will come up empty-handed that day
Jesus will come and steal us away
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite?
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night
Where is the victory, where is the prize?
When the grave robber comes and death finally dies
Many still mourn, many still weep
For those that they love who have fallen asleep
But we have this hope though our hearts may still ache
Just one shout from above and they all will awake
And in the reunion of joy we will see
Death will be swallowed in sweet victory
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite?
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night
Where is the victory, where is the prize?
When the grave robber comes and death finally dies
When the last enemy is done, from the dust will come a song
Those asleep will be awakened, not a one will be forsakened
He shall wipe away our tears, He will steal away our fears
There will be no sad tomorrow, there will be no pain and sorrow
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite?
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night
Where is the victory, where is the prize?
When the grave robber comes and death finally
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite?
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night
Where is the victory, where is the prize?
When the grave robber comes and death finally dies
Love flowing around me
A new found peace inside
I've made a decision
And now I'm satisfied
Jesus told me to follow
And to count the cost I'm willing to pay
I know I'm not worthy
And I know it's not the easiest way
I just want to be
I just want to be
I just want to be His disciple
I lived a delusion
With no one else to blame
I found a solution
when I called on His name
I may not have money or riches
But I found something better to be
To be a servant of Jesus
He means more than the world to me
The fields are ready for harvest
But the laborers are few
I just want to be where the Lord can use me
And work until the day is through
All of my life I've been searching
For the person who hides in me
I finally found someone
Who could make me who I want to be
I can't wait to see Him
Just want to hear Him say
"Well done faithful servant
City lights are flashin', they call you to the streets
Hearts are filled with passion in everyone you meet
The Boulevard is waitin', it wants to get you high
Neon signs are waitin' to sell you anythin' you want to buy
But I know your devices, it shouldn't seem so odd
You lied from the beginnin', I see through your facade
Angel of light, I see you glow in the night
But you only bring darkness to my soul
Angel of light, you're tellin' me wrong is right
But I won't let your evil take control
They follow in your footsteps, not knowin' that you fell
Bumper to bumper on the freeway to hell, you lead them into wrong
You make it look so right, you lead them into darkness
And make them think you lead them into light
But I know where you're going, too bad you're not alone
If it wasn't for the real light, I might have never known
Angel of light, I see you glow in the night
But you only bring darkness to my soul
Angel of light, you're tellin' me wrong is right
But I won't let your evil take control
You got the clergy workin' overtime to widen the narrow way
You've got politicians everywhere listenin' to what you say
You've got false apostles teachin' lies, perverting the only way
You've got principalities and powers waitin' to obey
You've got philosophies and vain deceits lyin' to deceive
You've got hate and greed, ungodly lusts in the deadly web you weave
Somehow you've got so many thinkin' you're not even there
One look is all it takes to get them blinded by your glare
Angel of light, I see you glow in the night
But you only bring darkness to my soul
Angel of light, you're tellin' me wrong is right
But I won't let your evil take control, oh no
Angel of light, I see you glow in the night
But you only bring darkness to my soul
Angel of light, you're tellin' me wrong is right
But I won't let your evil take control
All over me, all over me
I've got the blood of an innocent man
All over me
He never did anything to hurt anyone
But He said something 'bout being God's own Son
Some people believed Him,
some people received Him
Some people wouldn't stop till they saw Him die
Like an innocent lamb He was taken away
He never opened His mouth He had nothing to say
He just let them accuse Him
He just let them abuse Him
And the people wouldn't stop till they saw Him die
They nailed His ands and His feet to the wood
At the foot of His cross all His enemies stood
he said "Father forgive them"
He gave them all he could give them
Then He gave up His life
and they watched Him die
They laid His body in a rich man's tomb
But He rose from the dead and
He's coming back soon
You can choose to believe it
You can choose to receive it
How lovely is your dwelling place
O Lord Almighty
For my soul longs and even faints for you
For here my heart is satisfied
Within your presence
I sing beneath the shadow of Your wings
(Chorus)
Better is one day in your courts
Better is one day in your house
Better is one day in your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
One thing I ask and I would seek
To see your beauty
To find you in the place your glory dwells
My heart and flesh cry out
For you, the living God
Your spirit's water to my soul
I've tasted and I've seen
Come once again to me
I will draw near to you
I will draw near to you
"Yo Celebraré": Letra y Música by Linda Duvall
"El EspÃritu De Dios": Author Unknown
Yo celbraré cantaré al Señor
Con un cántico nuevo
Yo celbraré cantaré al Señor
Con un cántico nuevo
Yo le alabaré con un cántico nuevo
Yo le alabaré con un cántico nuevo
El EspÃritu de Dios se mueve en mi
Y yo canto como David
El EspÃritu de Dios se mueve en mi
Y yo canto como David
Cantaré cantaré, cantaré como David
Cantaré cantaré, cantaré como David
El EspÃritu de Dios se mueve en mi
Y yo danzo como David
El EspÃritu de Dios se mueve en mi
Y yo danzo como David
Danzaré, danzaré, danzaré como David
Danzaré, danzaré, danzaré como David
El EspÃritu de Dios se mueve en mi
Y yo oro como David
El EspÃritu de Dios se mueve en mi
Y yo oro como David
Oraré, oraré, oraré como David
Oraré, oraré, oraré como David
Words and music by Bob Hartman
I hear music coming from heaven
Singing a new song in my direction
I hear the melody, heavenly symphony
Feelings coming over me
Sets me spirit free
I feel like I've been born all over again
Like a songbird in the canyon
It echoes in my mind
Taking me farther from the memories of things I left behind
And it's taken me so long to hear
The music playing softly
Softly in my ear
Yahweh love, Yahweh love, Yahweh love
Yahweh love Yahweh love, Yahweh
Yahweh love, Yahweh love, Yahweh love
Yahweh love Yahweh love, Yahweh
I see a sign on every corner leading me astray
I hear a thousand voices calling for me to walk away
When I listen closely I can hear
the music playing softly
Softly in my ear
by Bob Hartman and Greg Bailey
Based on Phil 3:13-14
Life is filled with many chances
Some you took, and you some you blew
Your path in life can turn ever so quickly
On everthing you say
And change with everything you do
I know that was then
There's nothing I can do about what might have been
(Chorus)
Would'a, should'a, could'a done this and that
Don't wanna live life with another regret
Would'a, should'a, could'a made another choice
I can see more the older I get
Would'a, should'a, could'a said something more
But it's too late - there's a knock at the door
Would'a, should'a, could'a won't change a thing
The here and now is waiting
Would'a, should'a, could'a right now
We dig our pit, we make our bed
That's where we fall and where we lay
But we still have a shot to make things better
'Cause it ain't over yet
And we can get it right today
We can make the right choice
You know it's easy when you hear God's voice
(Chorus)
I want to live my life not only thinking of the past
The future tells me that my life has not been cast
I want to say "I will, I did" instead of could or should
Gonna believe in the promise "It's all good"
(Chorus)
Words and music by Bob Hartman
I could take a plane to New York City
I could hitchhike all the way to L.A.
I could follow the sunrise tomorrow
But be as close to You as today
I'm beginning to see what You mean to me
I just can't get away from Your love
(Chorus)
Where Can I go without Your love there to haunt me
I do believe You're playing to win
I can't understand what makes You really want me
But I'm feelin' like it's time to give in
I could climb the golden stairway to heaven
I could catch the crowded highway to hell
If I could find a place nobody has ever been
I bet You'd probably be there as well
I don't know why I've waited so long
Repeat Chorus
(Bridge)
Darkness is the same as the light to You
Daytime is the same as the night
When You put Your chains of love around my soul
I know it won't be long before I let You take control
I could take a submarine to Atlantis
I could take a flying saucer to Mars
I could ride on the Milky Way someday
But You've already numbered the stars
I'm beginning to hear Your voice is so near
Tellin' me You love me again
Repeat Chorus
Words and music by Bob Hartman and John Elefante
Based on John 15:18, Philippians 1:28, Romans 8:37
Look at the front page, turn on the tv
They fire another round at you and me
Their guns are loaded, they're taking aim
Nobody told them we're not all the same
No paranoia, nobody could
Just write it off as being Hollywood
The innuendo between the lines
Leaves no confusion 'bout what's on their minds
(Chorus)
I won't go underground
I won't turn and flee
I won't bow the knee
I won't go underground
I won't turn and hide from the rising tide
I won't go underground
I won't compromise what the world denies
I won't go underground
And I'm not ashamed of the cross I've claimed
They're taking notes on what we say
You know they'd like to lock us all away
Can't stop the movement, can't make it slow
Persecution always makes us grow
They got my number, it's no surprise
I'm here and wearing no disguise
Bring on the lions and heat up the fire
It's not enough to stop this man's desire
(2nd Chorus)
I won't go underground
I won't turn and flee
I won't bow the knee
I won't go underground
I keep holding fast till the very last
I won't go underground
I will turn my cheek, I will boldly speak
I won't go underground
I am not ashamed of the cross I've claimed
I know the Spirit behind this force
It's not surprising if you know the source
I pray for freedom for helpless ones
And I keep standing till the new day dawns
And I won't lay low as the hatreds grow
Words and music by Bob Hartman
The Levites returned with the Ark of the Land
The presence and strength of the God they adored
The temple was shut with the gatekeepers near
The priests would sing out till their nation could hear
Be lifted up everlasting doors
The King of Glory shall come in
Who is this King of Glory?
The Lord strong and mighty
Open your gates to the Lord of Hosts
Who is this King of Glory?
The Lord mighty in battle
The King of Glory shall come in
The King of Glory shall come in
Who can ascend to the hill of the Lord
Those with clean hands and an innocent heart
Who can be found in His holy place
Those who are humble and seek his face
Now we are the temple, He dwells in our hearts
The priesthood of faith that His Spirit imparts
This King is the One who can save from sin
He stands at the door and He wants to come in
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Went to sleep last night and I woke up feeling right
Daylight in my eyes and it seemed to be really bright
I went to the window and I looked up in the sky
I saw the angels coming but I knew it wasn't time to die
I took a look around I saw the clouds begin to form
I knew we must be near the end because the clouds come before the storm
I know the time is near
Lightning and thunder will soon here
Storm comin'
And it's coming our way
Storm comin'
And it might come today
(look out, here it comes)
I know my days are numbered
And I haven't got long to roam
It seems like quite a while I've been feeling like I want to go home
I'm just waiting for the day when Jesus will come and take me by the hand
There's no need to worry, He's gonna take me to the promise land
I hope you'll be there too
Jesus is waiting for you
Storm comin'
And it's coming our way
Storm comin'
And it might come today
(look out, here it comes)
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on Ezekiel 22:30, 1 Timothy 2:1, James 5:16
There's no feeling
Like when you have a friend in need
Their heart is wounded -
And you can feel your own heart bleed
And you wonder
Will they pull through this attack
You feel so helpless - you want to be fighting back
Don't think it's over - don't pull away
It's time to stand in - it's time to pray
Set the wheels in motion
With your devotion
Stand in the gap
Coming boldly to His throne of grace
Stand in the gap
He will hear you when you seek His face
Put your weapon to its use
And believe it will produce
Stand in the gap
Until all hell...
Until all hell breaks loose
In the conflict
It seems like He doesn't hear
Be encouraged - He still has an open ear
It's not for nothing
It's not in vain
Make your petitions
Call on His name
He will bring assistance
Through your persistance
The enemy is gonna have to fold his hand
When the army of the Lord begins to take command
Nothing in the heavens or the earth can stand
Against the fervent prayer of a righteous man
Words by Bob Hartman
Music by Ronny Cates
I've lived in my own way
And found that there's a price to pay
And I felt the emptiness
Without Your tenderness
Now before You I confess
chorus
Here is all I have to give
I offer up this life I live
I am sincerely Yours
Now in all sincerity
I give You all of me (Jesus)
I am sincerely Yours
This prodigal is standing here
Now with all my senses clear
For all You gave to me
I spent it foolishly
You've been waiting patiently
repeat chorus
Now I feel the weight on me is lifting
You've washed away the past
And now there is a new day dawning
As long as I keep holding
As long as I keep holding fast
I am Sincerely Yours
Sincerely Yours
repeat chorus

Based on Hebrews 11:6
For so long I was depending upon
My senses and fences, I tried to ride on
And trusting in things that can never be seen
Was always a crutch on which others must lean
Thinking if I could see I would believe
Then somebody said believe and you will see
(Chorus)
Sight unseen, sight unseen
You have to take it sight unseen
Blinded by the darkness only faith can come between
Sight unseen, sight unseen
Evidence built into every design
Led to conviction between every line
Faith is the key that can open the veil
To Love incarnated and pierced with a nail
Listen my friend, have I got news for you
The nails in His hands and feet were meant for you
Words & Music by Kevin Prosch
He is the Lord and He reigns on high
He is the Lord
Spoke into the darkness, creating the Light
He is the Lord
Who is like unto Him, never ending in days
He is the Lord
And He comes in power when we call on His name
He is the Lord
Chorus:
Show Your power
Oh, Lord, our God
Show Your power
Oh, Lord, our God
Oh, Lord, our God
Your Gospel, oh, Lord is the hope for our nation
You are the Lord
It's the power of God for our salvation
You are the Lord
CHORUS
We ask not for riches but look to the cross
'Cause you are the Lord
And for our inheritance give us the loss
You are the Lord
Send Your power
Oh, Lord, our God
Send Your power
Oh, Lord, our God
Oh, Lord, our God
Shadows of a different kind
Come and cloud my mind
And make me wonder
Am I still in touch with You?
Or could it be my doubting point of view?
Seems like only yesterday
I was seeing clearly through the haze
Now I find I'm not so sure
When a shadow casts it's doubt upon my ways
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
I seem to find You waiting there
Behind the wall of my own reason
I discover how You care
Lord, I know You won't ignore my prayer
Through faith I'll find You waiting
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
I know You are waiting there
I can hear You when I'm listening
I can't see You clearly now
And I know that I am missing all You have...
I will follow You although I cannot see my way
Cast Your light upon these shadows
Make them go away
If I hear Your voice I will obey
Words by Bob Hartman
Based on Matthew 6:19-21
He likes caviar, he likes champagne
Calls his broker just to check his gain
He made a profit of considerable size
Don't ask him no questions, he will tell you no lies
He kept thinking that he had it made
Never considering the price he paid
Earth bound treasures that will fade away
There ain't nothin' that will last him through the judgement day
Then he heard somebody say
There's a true Way
You'll be set for life
If you give your heart and believe what He's done for you
You'll be set for life
With your treasures stored up in heaven when you're through
Whoa, whoa
Never have another care, as long as you are there
Whoa, whoa
Rich in God beyond compare
Now these days, he's like a different man
He's got a heart of gold, he lends a helping hand
All he has he knows is never his
His heart is up in heaven where his treasure is
And now you'll hear him say
In his own way
You'll be set for life
You'll have all you need
Just receive with a willing heart
You'll be set for life
You'll be on your way
Any day you decide to start
Set for life
You've got it made
Now he has the right to say
In a true way
Words and music by Greg Hough
You remember Sally, used to be so happy
Walkin' down that street with a smile upon her face
Never had a worry, she never had a care
And when she came to see me she would brighten up my face
Sally was that kind of girl, sure would like to know
And everywhere that Sally went the lamb was sure to go
Somebody said they saw her on the other side of town
Said she was smokin' weed and drinkin', probably foolin' 'round
That's too bad about Sally because she was so nice
The next time that I see that girl, I'll give her my advice
Why would she want to run away from God and all His love
And go back in that world and live so hard and rough
You know that I don't feel too bad, Sally moved away
'Cause everytime I'd look at her she set my mind astray
Now Sally was that kind of girl, I wish that she was mine
Just to know that she was there, even that was fine
There's just one thing that I don't understand
And that's the part that's the part that's rough
Why would she want to run away from God and all His love
Repeat twice

Based on 1 Peter 3:15, 2 Timothy 4:2
Enough of the sidelines, gotta get in the game
When nothing is ventured, nothing is gained
He's callin' the numbers play by play
We're either out or we're in all the way
Get in the action whatever the cost
Nothing can equal the worth of the lost
Shoulder to shoulder, hand to the plow
Today is the day and the right time is now
And the field is ready for the new reserve
We will bring the harvest with a will to serve
(Chorus)
Ready, willing and able
To advance the light and defend the right
Ready, willing and able
Lifting up the cross to the waiting lost
Ready to serve and willing to go
Able to stand against the foe
Ready, willing and able
Instant in season drop of a hat
Bases are loaded, it's our turn at bat
Pressure is mounting, the tension is hot
Heaven is watching to see what we've got
There is strength in numbers
There is hope in One
We are called and chosen to proclaim His Son
He's already given us all that we need
With love in our message and hope in our creed
When Yahweh is for us and faith is our stay
No power below us can stand in our way
Traveling far from home
Out into the unknown
Nothing familiar around me
This journey seems so long
As I await the dawn
All alone and so weary
There's a Light over the horizon
I'll keep walking down this road of hope
Faithful in my prayer
There's a Light over the horizon
Though I may not know what lies ahead
I trust that You'll be there
I spend too many days
Lost in a mindless haze
Not really sure of my purpose
And I may question You
And what I'm going through
When life seems so uncertain
Some days are a mystery to me
But I believe that answers are revealed in time
Even when the path is just not clear
I'm anticipating what I'll find
Oh...
There's a Light over the horizon
I'll keep walking down this road of hope
Faithful in my prayer
There's a Light over the horizon
Though I may not know what lies ahead
I know that you'll be there
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on Hebrews 4:13, Psalm 37:18
In the evening when I start to pray
I think about this day
Another page is turned forever
Another yesterday
And as the story of my life unfolds
I know You've read it all
Another line to be continued
Will I stand or fall
Open book - to You I am an open book
You know every page by heart
From the ending to the start
Open book - my life is like an open book
As I read between the lines
It's Your love that truly binds this open book
When the cover of this book is closed
The final chapter read
I hope You find it worth the reading
I hope 'well done' is said
Cover to cover
Lord, You know me
And what I want to be
As You read the pages of my heart
Please tell me what You see
You give me water in a dry and thirsty land
You satisfy my hunger
Yo feed me from your hand
I was a wanderer in the wildnerness
Until I stumbled on your oasis
And I will stay here with you
Here in the shade, here in the cool
You keep me safe through the night in your oasis
You give your spirit
To a dry and thirsty heart
You satisfy my longing
I hear the voice of God
I was a wanderer in my emptiness
Until you brought me near your oasis
And I will stay here with you
Here in the shade, here in the cool
You keep me safe through the night in your oasis
And I will drink from your well
I find my peace here in your shelter
And I will stay here with you in your oasis

Words & Music by Bob Hartman
We are Pilgrims in a strange land
We are so far from our homeland
With each passing day it seems so clear
This world will never want us here
We're not welcome in this world of wrong
We are foreigners who don't belong
We are strangers, we are aliens
We are not of this world
We are envoys we must tarry
With this message we must carry
There's so much to do before we leave
With so many more who may believe
Our mission here can never fail
And the gates of hell will not prevail
Jesus told us men would hate us
But we must be of good cheer
He has overcome this world of darkness
Sometimes we're runnin' along
Blind to where we're goin'
Sometimes we lose our bearings
When the storm is blowin'
They say this shadow land is only temporary
These light afflictions work a great eternal glory
(chorus)
Walk by faith, not by sight
Strengthened by His glorious might
Walk by faith, not by sight
Heading for that land of light
Walk by faith and not by sight
Sometimes we ain't so sure
He sees us when we're kneelin'
Sometimes we forget salvation ain't a feelin'
We know that Jesus died for our justification
We grow in His image by suffering tribulations
Hold fast your confidence
You've got an invitation
To meet Him in the air

No weapon formed against us shall prosper
All those who rise up against us shall fall
I will not fear what the devil may bring me
I am a servant of God
I am a servant of God
(Verse 1)
There are times when you fell like you can't go on
There are times when you fell like giving in
And there are times when you feel like you can't try anymore
There are times of trouble in believing
This test of your faith will last
As long as it takes to pass
Till you have no more doubt you'll endure
And you faith will emerge true and pure
(Chorus)
No doubt it'll be alright
With God it'll all work together for good
No doubt in the end it will be understood
No doubt it'll all work out
With faith He can move any mountain for us
No doubt in the power of Jesus
And after all is done we find out
All we really need to have is no doubt
(Verse 2)
There's a time to take a reckless leap of faith
There's a time to be cautious and wait
And there's a way of learning from the past
That this time of trouble won't last
And sometimes we want to think we know
The ways He will choose to make us grow
But it's never the way of our choosing
And we can't always see what He's using
(Repeat chorus)
There will be winters in the seasons of our soul
With a cold and bitter wind that chills our lives
But our faith can be building a fire
That will warm us till spring time arrives
(Repeat chorus)
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on Proverbs 3:6, 1 Peter 5:8, Matthew 16:24
Smell the burning powder?
There's danger in the air
A voice from deep inside is telling you, 'you must beware'
Then enemy is watching
Every step you take
To find his opportunity in every choice you make
And it's no game
When someone lives without His grace
And who's to blame
When it blows up in their face
It's a mine field - you'd better follow Him through
God knows the way - you'd better stick like glue
It's a mine field - better stay on His heels
'cause the enemy kills and the enemy steals
So keep your head down and keep you eyes peeled
'cause life is...
Life is a mine field
Think the grass is greener?
You'd better look around
Everywhere you look another casualty is found
The enemy is waiting
For you to start to run
Waiting like an itchy finger on a loaded gun
Some may feel
They can wander out too far
They may heal
But they may always wear the scar
Better leave the navigation to the One who knows the Way
He will bring illumination
He will light your path each day
It's a mine field - better watch where you tread
Step off the path and you could end up dead
It's a mine field - better stay on His heels
'cause the enemy kills and the enemy steals
So keep your head down and keep your eyes peeled
'cause life is...
Life is a mine field

1 John 5:20
You are tied-in and networked
You've got people to see
You have friends in high places
You've got places to be
You've got plenty of time to make your mark
You've been able to get things done
And all the white shirts will take your calls
You've really had quite a run
Who can you turn to
When your life is behind you?
(Chorus)
It's all about who you know
It's all about who you know
When you get to the end and you've got nothing to show
It's all about who you know
It's all about who you know
You have learned how to pull strings
And call in a favor or two
You have found some ways to spend your time
Instead of with "you-know-who"
There's only one name
You can call on without blame
(Chorus)
Some may wonder where, when if not how
There's no worry, if you know Him now
(Chorus)
Nothing we do here below
Is gonna save us 'cause
It's all about who you know
Words and music by Bob Hartman
I can be friends with you
There's no better friend that a man can know
I can be friends with you
And I feel so special
'Cause it's you I know
I don't know the governor
Even though I'm a resident
I don't rub shoulders with the dignities
Or shake hands with the President
And I know I can be with you
And I don't have to wait in line
You're the author and creator of all the world
And a personal friend of mine
When I have a problem
I can always come to You
Regardless of the situation
I know You know what to do
You put Your arm around and speak so tenderly
And I feel better just to know You care
And you took the time for me
Greater love has no man than this
That a man lay his life down for his friend
But You laid down for all the world to see
And You proved Your love for me
I'm no special person
I've got nothing to offer You
But You treat me like I'm the only one
With whom you have to do
You're closer than a brother
And You're with me every day
I love You 'cause You first loved me
And I'm glad that I can say

Based on Genesis 3:15, Matthew 28:6, John 20:19, Revelation 6:2
He came alone into the battle
He knew nobody else could face His foe
He left His throne, He left His glory
He knew nobody else could ever go
He called the bluff, He took the challenge
He came into this world to seek and save
No one could know, no one could fathom
The way to win was only through the grave
They laid Him in His tomb
They thought they'd sealed His doom
But He rose
He rose!
(Chorus)
He came, He saw, He conquered death and hell
He came, He saw, He is alive and well
He was, He is, and only He forgives
He died, He rose, He lives
He came, He saw, He conquered!
The doors were locked, they heard Him knocking
They were afraid they would be taken, too
Familiar voice said, "Come and follow"
Come and see the things the Lord can do
They went to where He lay
The stone was rolled away
He rose
He rose!
He came into this world
He saw humanity
He heard the SOS
He met the enemy
The enemy was conquered
The enemy was conquered!

Based on Hebrews 9:27, John 4:14, 1 Peter 1:24, Romans 8:11, 1 Corinthians 15:26, 51-55, Revelation 7:17
There's a step that we all take alone
An appointment we have with the great unknown
Like a vapor this life is just waiting to pass
Like the flowers that fade, like the withering grass
But life seems so long and death so complete
And the grave an impossible potion to cheat
But there's One who has been there and still lives to tell
There is One who has been through both heaven and hell
And the grave will come up empty-handed the day
Jesus will come and steal us away
(Chorus)
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night
Where is the victory, where is the prize
When the grave robber comes
And death finally dies
Many still mourn and many still weep
For those that the love who have fallen asleep
But we have this hope though our hearts may still ache
Just one shout from above and they all will awake
And in the reunion of joy we will see
Death will be swallowed in sweet victory
When the last enemy is done from the dust will come a song
Those asleep will be awakened - not a one will be forsakened
He shall wipe away our tears - He will steal away our fears
There will be no sad tomorrow - there will be no pain and sorrow
No one ever noticed Annie weeping
People all around, but she was alone
Mama's got her meeting and Daddy's got his job
But no one's got the time, Annie's on her own
No one ever knew her desperation
People couldn't hear her cry out silently
Locked inside the bathroom she grabs a jar of pills
The medicine that cures becomes the poison that kills
And it's too late for Annie
She's gone away for good
There's so much we could tell her
And now we wish we could
But it's to late, it's too late for Annie
Sadness fills the hearts of Annie's family
Daddy tries to comfort Mama uselessly
They hoped she knew they loved her
But they really didn't know
They just want to know
Why did their baby go?
If only we'd have known her situation
We'd have tried to stop this useless tragedy
Annie's lost forever, never to be found
But there are lots of others like her all around
And it's not too late for Annie
She could be next to you
Don't miss the chance to tell her
Before her life is through
We gotta tell her Jesus loves her
Tell her Jesus cares
Tell her He can free her
And her burdens bear
Words by Bob Hartman
Based on Psalm 37:23-24
Standing on the corner I was losing track of time
When away in the distance saw an old friend of mine
He was smiling when he walked up held a tract out in his hand
Then he told me Jesus loved me and said "so do I, man"
Told me Jesus wants to save me from the fiery pit of hell
Then I told him I was livin' there I knew that place well
I was just about to leave when a love came over me
Like nothin I had felt then we kneeled and we prayed
Right there in the street we prayed
And now, after all those years of falling down
I fell up in the arms of love
When I heard Him call
(Love was calling I was falling)
He was there and I could hear Him callin'
I was fallin' up into His arms
Love was catchin' me that day and somehow
I was fallin' up then
And I'm fallin' up now
I'm fallin' up now
I remember that same feeling I'm reminded everyday
See, Jesus lives inside me and I know He's there to stay
Sometimes I start to fall down just like any other man
But His arms are there to catch me
And lift me up again
After all those years of falling down
I fell up in the arms of love
When I heard Him call
Now - couldn't live without Him
Now - wanna know more about Him
Now - I'm falling once again
Now - falling up to heaven
This fleeting moment that we spend on earth
No second chance to live it all again
It must be now or never
To cherish each endeavor
What will they say that I have left behind?
A faithful heritage for all to find
What will they see?
I want my legacy to be
He was a believer in deed
He had a heart of a different breed
He made his mark and he lived by his creed
A true believer
A believer in deed
Am I living everything I say?
Am I pointing others to the way?
Will I leave this world a better place?
Will Jesus say He knew me?
Is Jesus living through me?
Did I maintain my authenticity?
A man of honor and integrity?
Remembering me
I hope that they will truly see
At the end of my days I know I'm gonna say
I wouldn't live my life any other way
I'll look to my posterity to carry on for me
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on Psalm 104:4, Luke 3:6
When the weight of the world begins to show
When the flames of faith begin to die before I know
Time to be rekindled by the everlasting Source
The all Consuming Fire, illuminating Force
Like a blacksmith bellows aim
He fans the embers to a flame
I'm all fired up - I'm all fired up
There's a flame burning in my soul
And my heart is a burning coal
I'm all fired up - I'm all fired up
Those who wait up on the Lord
Find their strength has been restored
The flames of renewal burn within
I'm all charged up in my spirit again
I'm all fired up - I'm all fired up tonight
I've been told not to let my feelings go
I've been told my emotions never had the right to show
But I have this feeling burning deep within my heart
Won't wait to let this heavenly celebration start
When the Spirit gives me the nod
I'll get excited 'bout the things of God
I feel my faith renewing - I feel revival brewing
All over the world there's a burning desire
I feel the Church is stirring and it's gonna keep occurring
Till we're all baptized in His Holy Fire

Music by John Lawry & Danny Klingen
Kenaniah of the Levites appointed by the king
To teach the songs of Zion, to lead them as they sing
Your song is not forgotten, we hear it in our souls
Let it burn and burn within us
(And) Fan the sacred coals
[Chorus]
Kenaniah, Kenaniah, we will sing your ancient song
Kenaniah, Kenaniah, we will sing it loud and strong
Gathered for the battle, Kenaniah led the way
As the singers closely followed him they all began to pray
The musicians all assembled, Kenaniah gave the word
Through the raging battle zone the anthem could be heard
Sing unto Jehovah of his wonderous ways
Sing a song of triumph, sing a victory song
And in the cloud of witnesses Kenaniah sings along
[Chorus]
Kenaniah, Kenaniah, through the ages it will ring
Sometimes the night seems to go on for days
When it's hard to see the light through the darkness and the haze
While the world around you makes you feel out of place
And the burdens that you carry are just too hard to face
Just reach out and He'll reach in
Take your broken heart and make it whole again
It don't matter who you are or where you've been
Just reach out and He'll reach in
Standing in a crowd but still all alone
Crying out for answers that nobody knows
Everybody's busy looking out for themselves
Is there anyone who really cares about anyone else?
You say you've walked ten thousand steps away
But don't know that it's only one step back
Because the One who hears you when you pray
Is the One who's there beside you
Words and music by Curtis Peifer
Let all the saintly ones in God rejoice
The battle's won so lift your voice
Declare His Name the glorious King
Lift up the standard of triumph and sing
Crown Him Lord the conqueror of evil
He shed His blood to redeem all His people
And now we join the procession of Him
To hail Him Lord and glorious King
Jesus, Jesus, glorious One
Jesus, Jesus, God's risen Son
Jesus, Jesus, forever we'll sing
Jesus, Jesus, we'll hail you as King
There is a voice that must be heard
There is a song that must be sung
There is a name that must be lifted high
There is a treasure more than gold
There is a king upon the throne
There is one whose praise will fill the skies
His name is Jesus, friend of sinners
Jesus, Jesus
Friend of mine
There is a peace that calms our fears
There is a love stronger than death
There is a hope that goes beyond the grave
There is a friend who won't let go
There is a heart that beats for you
There is one name by which we are saved
When I was captive to my fears
You were the one who came to me
You set me free
I have a secret that I let nobody see
An evil shadow that's been hanging over me
My alter ego that I try to hold at bay
But despite my good intentions he can always get away
He does the things that I don't want to do
Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
Two men are fighting a war inside
I have this secret that I let nobody see
It's like a split personality
And the one I feed is the one who lives
The one I starve will be the one who gives
He won't do things that I know I should do
Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
Two men are fighting a war inside
One gives, one takes, I have to decide
Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
I need somebody to rescue me
When personalities clash
I know which person I want to be
With no defiance

Based on Job 13:22
I've been away for a little while
And I don't like where it takes me
Out of touch I'm going out of my mind
It's times like these that really break me
So here I am all alone
I'm waiting on You
Just a word will get me through
(Chorus)
I need to hear from You
Before this night is through
I need to hear from You
So I'm waiting, waiting just to hear from you
My whole world is turning upside down
When I'm lacking in direction
I don't care if it takes all night
I need to feel Your sweet affection
So let me hear words of life
I'm lost without You
Speak to me the way You do
I've been here in this place before
And You're not the one to blame
I need to know what You have in store
So I'm on my knees callin out Your name
I need to hear from You
Deep inside my heart
I need to hear from You
Just a still small voice is gonna get me through
Words by Bob Hartman
Well I don't care what some may say
Gonna stand up for the Lord today
Well I don't care if they all know
Gonna let the Lord's redeemed say so
Gonna say it loud - gonna say it proud
Hey! I, I love the Lord
I, I love the Lord
Come join the throng - ten million strong
Come lift your voice and sing this victory song
Gotta choose today whom you will serve
Don't try to wait to find the nerve
The lines are drawn - no middle ground
Don't you know you're either lost or found
Words by Bob Hartman
Based on 2 Thessalonians 2:15, 2 Timothy 3:14, Philippians 1:6
I've been to the party and I left alone
And I've danced with a few that I'd be better off on my own
I've been to the altar and I know I kneeled
But I ended up dancing in the grass of another field
Then someone told me I heard someone say
(Chorus)
Dance with the one who brung ya
Dance with the one you know who got you there
Dance with the one who brung ya
Don't change hats, you know it's the one you wear
My feet start moving down inside my shoes
But I don't want to settle for the beat of a lonely blues
And there's no use dancin' to a different drum
When I've seen what happens and I know what will become
I can testify it's never worth a try
I looked high, I looked low
You're never gonna find someone who loves you so
Stand tall, stand strong
You're only gonna see you're right where you belong
Don't try to fix what has never been broke
Letra y Msica by Curtis Peifer
Regocjense santos del Seor
El ya triunf levanten su voz
declaren hoy la gloria del Rey
Alzen bandera de triunfo en El
El venci las huestes del maligno
Su sangre di para redimirnos
Y nos reunimos en su nombre hoy
Le coronamos glorioso Dios
Cristo, Cristo, Glorioso Rey
Cristo, Cristo, Hijo de Dios
Cristo, Cristo, siempre cantaremos
Cristo, Cristo, Tu eres el Rey

Based on 1 Timothy 4:1, 2 Thessalonians 2:11, 2 Timothy 4:3-4
Somewhere in the darkest night a stranger has lost the way
Cold wind and a distant light has carried his heart away
Some say he was one of us, a prodigal gone astray
But inside he's as cold as ice to the truth that he won't obey
He won't discern - the point of no return
(Chorus)
In the last daze - the final haze
There was strong delusion to believe a lie
In the last daze before the blaze
They couldn't see beyond their misty trance
To grab the truth and have a fighting chance
In the last daze
Cold chills when the Spirit speaks that some shall depart from the faith
All ends in calamity just when they thought it was safe
They followed the lies - the fables men devised
Some say it's a certainty, a sign of the times I am told
But I weep for the souls of those who will never return to the fold
Letra y Msica by Adrian Turner and Pat Howard
La salvacin es de nuestro Dios

Words and music by Bob Hartman
I think its gone far enough
I can't take it anymore
I've got to even up the score
Before he sweeps me off the floor
I've really got to find a way
Of taking care of him for good
I know he'd kill me if he could
So I'll nail him to the wood
(Chorus)
Killing my old man
You may not understand
He's a terrible man
Got to make a stand
And kill the old man
(Bridge)
Every time that I think he's gone and I've finally won
He just keeps coming back, puts me on the run
I think I'd better do it now
Get my hammer and a nail
Pray to God I that I won't fail
Lest he'll keep me in the jail
And I don't wanna stay in jail!

Words & Music by Bob Hartman
From the top of mountains to the bottom of the sea
From beginning of time through eternity
From the burning bush to Gethsemane
From the Red Sea shores to the Galilee
You are I am You are I am
Let the Heavens rejoice in your Majesty
Let the earth hear your voice in its purity
From the fiery furnace to the Upper Room
From the Lions' den to the empty tomb
You have always been-You will always be
Yesterday, today and through eternity
I will always bow my knee
You will never cease to be I am
From the breath of life to the Living Word
Words and music by Greg Hough and Bob Hartman
I know that you been scheming
Trying to run my head around
But I know all about you girl
You've been lost - But I've been found
Woman don't you know
You ain't gonna pull me down
I told you 'bout a new way
Of livin' life and having fun
I told you 'bout the Spirit
And walking in the light of the Son
Woman don't you know
I ain't gonna come undone
I told you about Salvation
But you don't seem to want no part
You've been trying to take me
You've been trying to steal my heart
Woman don't you know
I ain't gonna have no part
Words and music by Greg Hough
Sometimes I feel like I'm all mixed up inside
Sometimes I feel like I wanna go run and hide
But then You put Your arms around me
And I feel Your sweet love surround me
Then I know just where I'm going
I tell Your sincerely You're the sweetest person I've ever know
And I love You dearly You know I'd never, never let You go
'Cause when You put Yours arms around me
And I feel Your sweet love surround me
Then I know just where I'm going
(Chorus)
You keep my head on my shoulders
I'm well adjusted inside
You are my love, You are my only life
Without You I would surely die
And there is no other that I love as much as I love You
I wish that my brother could love You just as much as I do
'Cause when You put Your arms around me
And I feel Your sweet love surround me
Then I know just where I'm going
There is no more doubt, there's no more knowing
Repeat Chorus
Chorus:
Why should the Father bother to call us His children?,
Why should the Spirit hear it when we pray?,
Why should the Father bother to be concerned with all our needs?
It's all Because of what the Son has done.
Once we were lost out on the Ocean with no direction or devotion,
tossed about by every wind & wave , Now we are in the world not of it,
and we can surely rise above it, Because the Lord has risen from the grave
(CHROUS)
And we cry "Abba Father", "Abba Father" ,"Abba Father" , "Abba Father"
We cry "Abba Father", "Abba Father", "Abba Father" , "Abba Father",
Once we were strangers from the Promise, We were doubters worse than
Thomas,
Till the Spirit opened up our eyes, Now he has offered us Adoption &
we have taken up the option, To be His family Eternally.
(CHROUS)
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on Hebrews 1:3, Matthew 20:29, 6:34
Hearts are falling left and right
Children fear this planet's plight
Fatalistic fears abound
And take their toll without a sound
But through the vague uncertainty - comes a bold assurity
This world is under sovereignty - divinely ordered destiny
He holds this world together with the Word of His power
Safe within His hands - til its own appointed hour
(Chorus)
He's still got the whole world in His hands - tonight
And only He knows where the sparrow lands - tonight
And nothing in this world can stop His plans - tonight
'Cause He's still got the whole world in His hands
In His hands tonight
Humanistic lies lament
The holocaust is imminent
Doomsday prophets in the news
Predicting who will light the fuse
The fate of His creation isn't subject to a man
The final consummation is according to His plan
He's still got you - He's still got me in His hands tonight
Words by Timothy Wright
Based on Joshua 24:15
You've been running and running
Running for a long time
Your time is winding up
You better make up your mind
It's getting late in the evening
The sun is going down
You better get right while
He may be found
(Chorus)
I want to know where
Who's on the Lord's side
I want to know where
Who's on the Lord's side
Where do you stand
Come on, come on
I'm on the Lord's side
You got to work, got to work, work while it's day
For the night is coming when you can't find your way
Oh sinner I wonder what will you do
You better choose this day - tomorrow's not promised to you
Get up if you're on the Lord's side
Get on your feet
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on Philippians 2:9-10
Some men called Him Rabbi, good teacher, nothing more
The Son of just a carpenter who taught along the shore
Some men called Him Master, Elijah come again
Some left their nets to follow Him to learn to fish for men
Some say He's Messiah, I Am, who's always been
The Baptist called Him Lamb of God who takes away our sin
(Chorus)
What's in a name that the demons flee
What's in a name that the captives go free
What's in a name that every knee should bow
In the name of Jesus, name above all names
There is power and glory, forever and ever
Forever and ever
Some said Son of David returning to His throne
Some said He's the Son of Man with origin unknown
And one said He's the Son of God, the Rock on which we stand
The Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end
No other name can sound so sweet
No other name is so complete
No other name can bring release
The Mighty God, the Prince of Peace
We want to see Jesus lifted high
A banner that flies across the land
That all men might see the truth and know
He is the way to heaven
(Chorus)
We want to see, we want to see
We want to see Jesus lifted high
We want to see, we want to see
We want to see Jesus lifted high
Step by step, we're moving forward
Little by little, taking ground
Every prayer a powerful weapon
Strongholds come tumbling down and down and down and down
We're gonna see, we're gonna see
We're gonna see Jesus lifted high
We're gonna see, we're gonna see
We're gonna see Jesus lifted high
Words and music by John and Dino Elefante and Scott Springer
Verse 1:
When will the world
See that we need Jesus?
If we open our eyes
We will all realize
That He loves us
When will the world
See that we need Jesus?
When our hearts are as one
And believe that He's the Son of our God
(Chorus)
The Lord is our God
And we shall never want
The Lord is our God
And we shall live forever
When we share the love of Jesus
See each other as He sees us
Then His love will see us through
His love will see us through
Verse 2:
When will the world
See that we need Jesus?
When sister and brother
Love one another as one
When will the world
See that we need Jesus?
Will we ever understand
Jesus is the Son of man?
We must live in the shadow of His love

Wind may come wind may go
Where it blows no one knows
Chill the bone fan the fire
Lead the soul to hearts desire
There's a voice in the wind that calls your name
If you listen you'll never be the same
There's a voice in the wind that points the way
Gently beckon to follow and obey
Spirit comes spirit goes
Whence it comes no one knows
Giving life making new

Words and Music by Bob Hartman
Son of the morning--highest of all
You had so much going till you took the fall
Had a place in the glory but you wanted it all
Impossible odds but you had the gall
It seemed so unlikely that you would rebel
Such a worthy opponent that you knew so well
But you went down fighting when you heard the bell
Took a third of all heaven when you went to hell
[Chorus]
This means war--and the battle's still raging
War--and though both sides are waging
The Victor is sure and the victory secure
But till judgement we all must endure
This Means War!
Then came the cross--you thought you had won
You thought you had conquered God's only Son
"So much for Jesus" you said in jest
Then you got a visit from an unwelcome guest
Now it's all over down to the wire
Counting the days to your own lake of fire
But you'll go down fighting for all that you're worth
Words by Bob Hartman
Music by Ronny Cates
You can think of times when you had the right chance
You could make a choice when nobody could see
You could think of ways of defending your deeds
Justify the way that you wanted to be
Wait just a minute
Wait just a minute
chorus
Hey, did you ever think twice
Something inside says stay away
Hey, did you ever think twice
When there's still time you can go the other way
Hey, did you ever think twice
You can think of things that you wanted to try
You can think of things that you wish you could see
You could go a way that would seem to right
Thinking of a place that you wish you could be
Wait just a minute
Wait just a minute
repeat chorus
Face to face with sin
You better think again, you better think again
Take another look for a second time
And give a second thought to where you draw the line
Wait just a minute
Wait just a minute
repeat chorus

I'm only happy when I'm with you
And living life the way you show me
Whenever I'm apart, I grow a colder heart
I only feign my love for you
And if a day goes by without speaking
I love like I don't really need you
But in my heart I find I recognize the lie
My every breath I draw from you
And I still find you true, pulling me back to you
(Chorus)
To you I will run
The prodigal son
Coming back home again to you
Open your arms
And into your heart
I'm folded in love again with you
And every moment that I've wasted
Chasing after my own dreaming
I know you will forgive and wipe away the tears
For all the lonely foolish years
And I will try to be true, living each day with you
All that I am
And all that I have
And all I can be
Is found in you
This is the noise we make with our voice and with our hands
We've come to celebrate all across this land
The joy that's in our hearts makes us want to dance for you
Join as the angels sing and worship as they do
And we worship you alone with our songs of praise
One day before your throne
This is the noise we make
You are worthy, worthy
You are worthy, worthy
You are holy, holy
You are holy, holy
And we worship you alone with our songs of praise
One day before your throne
This is the noise we make
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
Lord, how lovely is Your name
You are everyday the same
You are worthy
Lord, come and fill our emptiness
With the beauty of Your holiness
Now, we will sing Your praise
And declare Your ways to be holy
Chorus:
Lord, we love and proclaim
The Holiest name
Of God in the highest
Lord, above every name
No other can claim
The Holiest name of all
Grace has been given unto us
We have nothing else to trust
But Your mercy
Your love has called us to Your side
We will faithfully abide in You
And now we will heed Your voice
And our hearts rejoice in Your glory
CHORUS
The Holiest name
The Holiest name of all

In heavenly armour we'll enter the land
The battle belongs to the Lord
No weapon that's fashioned against us shall stand
The battle belongs to the Lord
We sing glory and honor
Power and strength to the Lord
(repeat)
The power of darkness comes in like a flood
The battle belongs to the Lord
He's raised up a standard, the power of His blood
The battle belongs to the Lord
When your enemy presses in hard do not fear
The battle belongs to the Lord
Take courage my friend, your redemption is near
The battle belongs to the Lord
by Bob Hartman
Based on Rom. 13:11
One moment gone into the past
But here and now will never last
You made the most of your design
You've walked alone
You held the line
That's when you know you've passed
The test of time
The time has come, the time has gone
The time is now, but not for long
Before you take a second glance
Redeem the time and take a chance
It's not too late to pass
(Chorus)
The test of time
And the time is passing every moment that you take
The test of time
It's the test of choices that you have to make
It's what you're doin' and how you're livin'
It's how you're spending the time you're given
The test of time
Tomorrow is a chance that may not come
Today is still the day God gives us
To see things done
Your own test of time has begun
Time will slip away
Every moment passing by
The choices that we make will stand the test of time
Time will slip away
Every moment passing by
The choices that we make will stand the test of time

If all you got is a fancy car
And a precious diamond ring
When you stand before the Lord
Will it really mean a thing?
You've got to see how good your life can be
You've got to feel what's really, really real
How can you know until you taste and see
How good it is to be set free?
Taste and see that the Lord is good
He's got milk and honey for you
Come and dine at the Master's table,
He'll serve bread and wine to you
Well you tasted this and you tasted that
But you still ain't satisfied
You'll never find any peace of mind
In those empty things you tried
Don't be afraid of tasting something new
Your soul is hungry, nothing else will do
The bread of life will keep you saitsfied
You won't go hungry or ever be denied
You've got to make up your mind
And leave your old life behind you
You know He'll take it away
Words and music by Dave Browning
Take me past the outer courts
Into the Holy place
Past the brazen altar
Lord I want to see Your face
Pass me by the crowds of people
The priests who sing Your praise
I hunger and thirst for Your righteousness
And it's only found one place
Take me in to the Holy of Holies
Take me in by the blood of the Lamb
Take me in to the Holy of Holies
Take the coal, cleanse my lips, here I am

Based on Eph 6:13
You had a blank stare- there in your easy chair
You watch as things get out of hand
But now your eyes blink and you begin to think
Of what could happen if you stand
You think about the ground you might have lost in this round
Your eyes are open to the things that had you bound
And then you rise up from your sleep and put your foot down
You take one final grasp of air before you drown and take a
(Chorus)
Stand - having done all this
Stand - with emphasis
Stand - no analysis
Even when you don't understand
Put your armor on
Stand on the foundation
Stand - rely upon
The strength that has always been there
And now you stand firm- but not on your own terms
We have no power all alone
But you can feel safe there with your shield of faith
The inner strength in you has grown
And when you draw your sword the enemy is fair game
We're more than conquerors in Jesus' name so take a
(Chorus)
Stand all alone if there's no one around you
Stand on your own
Stand through the night - wait for the morning to bring you the strength
To finish the fight
Stand up tall- Stand or fall
Stand your ground - Don't stand down
Stand connected - Stand corrected
Stand in faith - Stand elected
Late one night I heard a knock at the door
The boys were really painting the town
I was just another bored teenage boy
Kickin' up and actin' the clown... Yeah
One dare led to another dare
Then things were getting out of control
We hopped the fence and we stole the pears
And I threw away a part of my soul
Yes, I threw away a part of my soul (now it's)
Chorus:
Haunting me how I stole those pears
'Cause I loved the wrong
Even though I knew a better way
Not for hunger or poverty
It was more than pears that I ended up
throwin' away... Yeah
Time goes by - now I'm old and grey
Those pears are just a memory
I would gladly pay all I have today
But that's just not the problem you
see... ('cause it's)
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Why do we love all the things that are wrong
Forbidden fruit has a strange siren song
Why do we do what we don't want to do
When we live with regrets our whole life
through
(Chorus)
Matthew 7:7-8, Psalms 86:7
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
In a corner with no windows - no apparent way to go
No escape hatch, must be some catch
Must be something you don't know
Look down, look around, all your hopes are sinking deep into the ground
Look up through the night, S.O.S. is gonna make it to the light when you
Speak to the sky and wait for the answer
Someone will be there to take your call
Though you may be at the brink of disaster
Speak to the sky and you never will fall
When temptation will surround you
Enemy is closing fast
Fight insistence with resistance
You can know that it won't last
Look out, look around, cryin' out but no one seems to hear a sound
Look into your heart, help is on the way before you even start to

Somebody's gonna praise His name
Somebody's gonna call Him Lord
It'll either be you and me
Or it's gonna be a rock or tree
Somebody, somewhere is gonna praise His name
Jesus said that it couldn't be stopped
Jesus said that it had to be heard
His creation will praise Him
Jesus said we could be assured
If we all maintain our silence
Even stones will cry out so loud
His creation will praise Him
All alone or in a crowd
In the end every tongue will confess
Every knee will eventually bow
His creation will praise Him
It's so easy to go for it now
And it's gonna be me
It's gonna be me
Somebody's gonna praise Him
And it's gonna be me
Lord I lift my voice to You
And I magnify Your name
You are Alpha and Omega
You are everyday the same
As long as I draw breath my lips will praise You
As long as I have strength I want to praise Your name

Based on Matthew 7:3,5, James 1:2, Matthew 5:16
Too many black sheep in the family
Too many stones from a house of glass
They've heard the story, they've heard the lines
But talk is too cheap to change their minds
They want to see some vital signs
Convictions - in the way we live
Convictions - not a narrative
Actions speak a little louder than words
(Chorus)
Seen and not heard, seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
There's too much talk and not enought walk
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
Delayed reaction to hostility
Brings us into reality
Cause when we answer in our defense
They can see through the false pretense
They want to see some evidence
Commitment - no more alibis
Commitment - not a compromise
Actions speak a little louder than words
Let your light so shine in all you do
With an answer near when they come to you
Don't let your mouth start talkin'
Until your feet start walkin'
Words by Bob Hartman
Based on Romans 1:9, 2 Corinthians 10:4
I've waited patiently for your reply
You say you'll come around by and by
I've tried to show the way into the light
But I just won't let you go without a fight
You think my hands are tied
But you will never hide, no
I've got you in my sight day and night
(Chorus)
I've got a secret weapon
I'll pray for you
I've got a secret weapon
Gonna get through
I really care about you
I'll pray for you
I've told you everything you need to know
But you still fluctuate to and fro
You just can't push yourself over the edge
So I will pull the rug behind the hedge
How can you ever lose
This deal you can't refuse
So with your hands up high
Reach for the sky
I won't give up on you
I'll pray until the night is through
And you surrender to the light
Come on surrender
You are all I seek and all I know
I am satisified in you alone
I've found nothing in this world
That seems so sweet
As your presence in a life laid at your feet
(Chorus)
And my cry
Lord my cry
Is that you are good
And that you satisfy
You are all I seek and all I am
In you I am complete, in grace I stand
When I wandered far from you
You brought me here
You've brought me to the cross
You've brought me here
My delight is your faithfulness and truth
My desire is to quench my thirst in you
Words and music by Adrian Turner and Pat Howard
Salvation belongs to our God
Who sits upon the throne
And unto the Lamb
Praise and glory
Wisdom and thanks
Honor and power and strength
Be to our God forever and ever
Be to our God forever and ever
And we the redeemed shall be strong
In purpose and unity
Declaring aloud
by Bob Hartman
Based on Mark 16:15
You never tried to win more secular appeal
And water down Your message with a slightly different feel
You never tried to be politically correct
Or skirt around the issue attempting to connect
You spoke the truth in love so faithfully
You expect no less from me
(Chorus)
It's a sacred trust that You gave to us
To take Your Word into all the world
It's a sacred trust that You gave to us
The message of salvation and Your love
You never shied away from critical debate
Or beat around the bushes when discussing human fate
You weren't ashamed to tell them who Your Father was
Never ran from persecution like human nature does
You prayed for all believers on Your knees
Then you handed us the keys
(Chorus)
You're trusting us to be bold
The story has to be told
To every nation and tongue
Young and old
I'm gonna shout from the hill
How could I ever be still?
I'm gonna let the chips fall
Where they will
You spoke the truth in love so faithfully
You expect no less from me
(Chorus)
Alone on the sidelines without any guidelines
You've been running too fast with no place to go
You got no direction, you gotta set your affection
On the things that can bring you
Right back into the flow
You got to run for the prize
Don't look over your shoulder
Gotta keep your eyes
On the straight and narrow
gotta run for the prize
there's no time to be wandering
Gotta make your way
Just as straight as an arrow
You may be weary but you gotta be leery
When somebody sayst that you witll never finish the race
They can discourage but don't lose your courage
You gotta narrow the margin and keep up the pace
Gotta lay aside every weight and run the race that's before us
If we grow weary and faint the Father,
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on 1 Peter 5:5
You muyst have seen the light somewhere along the way
The flashing warning sign that you would not obey
You ran the roadblock before the danger zone
You cut the lifeline - now you're on your own
(Chorus)
Run for cover - better get under authority
Run for cover - better listen to somebody
Like a lone ranger running through the night
With noone to tell you if you're wrong or right
Run for cover
You want to call the shots - you want to take control
You want to throw the dice and gamble with your soul
Taking the liberties that grace will not afford
Is He your Master, can you call Him Lord?
Why do you stand out in the rain
What do you think you have to gain
When you try in your own strength but don't prevail
The arm of flesh will always fail
Another sleepy Sunday, safe within the walls
Outside a dying world in desperation calls
But no one hears the cries or knows what they're about
The doors are locked within, or is it from without?
[Chorus]
Looking through rose colored stained glass windows
Never allowing the world to come in
Seeing no evil and feeling no pain
Making the light as it comes from within so dim... so dim
Out on your doorstep lay the masses in decay
Ignore them long enough, maybe they'll go away
When you think you have so much, you have so much to lose
There is a way that leads to life, the few that find it never die
Past mountain peaks graced white with snow, the way grows brighter as it goes
Chorus:
There is A road inside of you,inside of me there is one too.
No stumbling pilgrim in the Dark, the road to Zion's in your heart,
the road to Zion's in your heart
The river runs beside the road, it's waters living as they flow,
in liquid voice the water calls, on thirsty knees a pilgrim falls
(CHROUS)
Sometimes a shadow dark & cold lays like a mist across the road,
but Be encouraged by the sight, where there's a shadow there's a light
(CHROUS)
Sometimes it's good to look back down , we've come so far we've gained
such ground but joy is not in where we've been, Joy is Who's waiting at the end
(CHROUS)
No stumbling pilgrim in the Dark, the road to Zion's in your heart

Words by John Lawry
Based on James 5:16b
Noah saw the coming of the flood
(He built an ark upon dry land)
When Moses prayed,
God parted the Red Sea
(In faith, he made his stand)
And David dropped the giant to his knees
(Empowered by a stronger hand)
God changed the course of history
(See the power of the praying man)
(Chorus)
Faith lives in folded hands
Mountains move when you make a stand
It's never been a case of sleight of hand
It's the power, oh the power of the praying man
Whoa, I see the power of the praying man
Whoa, I see the power of the praying man
Jesus turned the water into wine
(No tricks, no magicians)
He rules the earth, the wind, the sky
(In control of the situation)
He knew that
Prayer is alive and well today
(It's a matter of dedication)
Prayer works when you take the time to pray
(It's a matter of true devotion)
You'll see that
Words and music by Bob Hartman and John Elefante
Based on 1 Thessalonians 5:17-18, Ephesians 6:18-19, Matthew 6:9-13
First I want to thank You Lord for being who You are
For coming to the rescue of a man who's drifted far
For calling me to be Your son and calling me to serve
Lord the way You've blessed my life is more than I deserve
Keep the ones I love so dearly
Fill their emptiness while I am gone
And fill the loneliness in me
(Chorus)
This is my prayer
Lifted to You
Knowing You care even more than I do
This is my prayer
Lifted in Your name
Your will be done I humbly pray
Let me be the evidence of what Your grace can do
To a generations struggling to find themselves in You
May they come to know the love of God
May their eyes be made to see
Give me the opportunity to share the truth that sets them free
And may unity in all things
Be the banner of Your church
And let revival's fire begin to burn
As we face the last and final hours
Turn a wayward country back to You
And keep us from the evil that devours
Keep us on the path and lead us through
Keep us in Your light until Your kingdom comes
And our work is done
This is my prayer
Lifted to You
Knowing You care so much more than I do
This is my prayer
In Jesus' name
Your will be done I humbly pray
This is my prayer
Words and music by Greg X. Volz
Praise ye the Lord all ye nations
The Lord is reigning, you people rejoice
The Word of the Lord is a two-edged sword
He's placed it in our hands
Praise ye the Lord
Praise ye the Lord
Praise ye the Lord forever
The word of the Lord shall endure forever and ever
His merciful kindness is great toward us
Is with us to the end
Now let us go on to perfection
Leaving behind the old carnal mind
Press toward the mark of the high call of God
Which is the fullness of Christ
Praise the Lord for His mercy
Praise the Lord for His love
His everlasting love
Praise the Lord for His kindness
Praise the Lord for His Son
Jesus is Lord
Jesus is Lord
Jesus is Lord forever
by Bob Hartman
Based on Isaiah 65:17
Some believe this world is bound to get much better
They think utopia is just around the bend
They like humanity to come up with the answers
So they can keep their heads safely buried in the sand
This is my Father's world and He can fix it
Our hopeless band-aids are all counterfeit
In a perfect world, God's throne will come
In a perfect world, in a perfect world
In a perfect world ruled by His Son
In a perfect world, in a perfect world
Some still worship Mother Nature in her glory
They do a good thing when they stand up for her right
But Mother Nature has a Father in the heavens
And His creation went astray but never left His sight
The old will pass away and bring a new birth
A whole new heaven and a new earth
(Chorus)
In a perfect world, in a perfect world
In a perfect world, in a perfect world
Kingdom come
His will be done
On the earth
As it is in heaven
Till we come to where there is no night
And the Lord Himself will be our light
(Chorus)
Here's a song
Sung with you in mind
Maybe it will make you think about Him one more time
And if you can
Please try to understand
Words and music by Bob Hartman
You've been tossing in your sleep
All the promises you made that you couldn't keep
And you're feeling sorry for yourself
Think He's done with you, had Him on the shelf
And you're tired of running the race
Straying to and fro, falling on your face
Oh, you want to throw your towel on in
Brother before you do, you better think again
Never say die, no
You've come too far to turn back now
Give it one more try and He'll help you through
Never say die, no
We are weak but He is strong
and strength He will supply
When you ask Him to
You went wrong, you remember when
Instead of pressing toward the mark you missed it once again
And you think that you're the only one
Who's ever come your way and done what you have done
So you try to tuck your tail and run
But then you realize you're back where you've begun
Oh can't you see Him waiting there for you?
With arms wide open now, wanting to see you through
Press on, press on
Keep your hand upon that plow
Press on, press on
And he will lead you through somehow
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Standing high on a mountain, I can see forever
All the parts of the puzzle seem to be together
The sky is clear and the sun shines on me
The Lord is here and I'm feelin' so free
Walking through the valley, darkness falls around me
Walking through the shadows, evil things surround me
I'm not forsaken
The Lord is my light
I know He's making a way in the night
If you've never been in the valley
You'll never know
How high the mountain is above the valley below
When you walk through the valley
You've got to keep your head up
If you fall or stumble you've got to pick yourself up
The Lord is waiting to hear your heart cry
He'll always give you another try
Words and music by Rob Frazier
Every moment of every single day
Becomes a testimony to your saving grace
Thank you Jesus for all you've done
Now the Father can call me His son
And the victory's been won
(Chorus)
Oh, I really love You
Oh, I really love You
And I want to be where You are
Jesus, bright Morning Star
Oh, I really love You
Oh, I really love You
And I want to be where You are
Jesus, bright Morning Star
That sure salvation that I have gained from You
Has changed and rearranged all that I knew
When I'm near You my heart's so strong
I write the music, but You give the song
Let me sing along
And now I want to give back to You what You gave to me
And feel the joy of offering all of my love and worship to You
You say you've been feeling weaker, weaker by the day
You say you can't make the joy of your salvation stay
But good things come to them that wait
Not to those who hesitate
So hurry up and wait upon the Lord
More power to ya when you're standing on His Word
When you're trusting with your whole heart in the message you have heard
More power to ya when we're all in one accord
They that wait upon the Lord, they shall renew
They shall renew their strength
Jesus promised His disciples He'd give strength to them
Jesus told the all to tarry in Jerusalem
When they were all in one accord
The power of His Spirit poured
And they began to turn the world around
So be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might
Put on all His armor and fight the good fight
In all of our weakness, He becomes so strong
We wait since the day He ascended
He said He would come again
Some think it will be such a long time
Some think they know just when
We live like there's no tomorrow
We wait with our lamps of oil
We watch for the midnight hour
The day we cease our toil
When the trumpet sounds
And the bridegroom comes
The weddings gonna be so royal
So we gotta keep staying loyal
Cause our feet are gonna leave this soil
When we burn the midnight oil
Burn the midnight oil
Some wait from the top of the mountain
Away from the world below
Some work while there's still a harvest
No rest when there's seed to sow
We go out to wait for the bridegroom
Some bring oil of readiness
Some lamps will be burned out waiting
Left out in there emptyness
Will our lamps be full at parousia?
I'm here to meet with you
Come and meet with me
I'm here to find you
Reveal yourself to me
(Chorus)
As I wait, you make me strong
As I long, you draw me to your arms
As I stand and sing your praise
You come, you come, and you fill this place
Won't you come, won't you come, and fill this place
by Bob Hartman
Based on 1 John 5:11
First He calls out
Into your darkness
He woos gently
And you have to choose
But the choice is easy
It's light and darkness
There's an invitation
You can not refuse
Revelation - when you see where you've been
Confirmation - you've been drawn again
(Chorus)
This is life as we know it
Forgiven and free
Life as we know it
More abundantly
Born of the Son, we can finally see
This is life as we know it
Undeniably
One day doubting
You're walking blindly
Through shadow's darkness
You don't feel a thing
You keep on walking
Though you sometimes stumble
Till you find assurance
Only faith can bring
Never perfect, but perfectly forgiven
Finding courage to get up again
(Chorus)
Bent, but not broken
Tempted, but not shaken
Kept in the shadow of His wing
Held by the power
Sealed with the promise
By the One who is over everything
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
Words and music by Rob Frazier
Say the magic words
I won't say the magic words to please you
'Cause you might decide to judge me
By what I say to you and not what I do
Hide behind my words
I won't hide behind my words carefully
Cause I'd rather let you see me
For what I am and not what you hope that I'll be
(Chorus)
"I want you to be free,"
Jesus said that to me
Why should things that we say
Have to get in the way
Say the proper words
I won't say the proper words to belong
But I'll speak and then I'll listen
And let Jesus make the tie strong
Play the proper words
I won't play the proper words like a game
Cause we'd better have in common
A lot more than words to call the body our name
Why can't we deal in spirit
Not empty words and phrases
That we've learned to recognize
But barely understand
Designed to reassure us
That if words are in their places
Than our hearts must be there too
We really must understand
Whoa!
That's not the way it should be
Say the magic words
Say the magic words
Don't say the magic words
Please don't say the magic words
Please don't
Please don't say the magic words
Say the magic words
Say the magic words
Words and music by Bob Hartman
(Chorus)
Magic mirror don't let me walk away without seeing who I am
Magic mirror don't let me see who I am and only walk away
I must have walked by you a thousand times before
I never noticed you were hanging on my door
But then you caught my eye and let me see myself
My legs were running with my shoes nailed to the shelf
When I saw you hanging there I had to stop and stare
'Cause every time I see a little more of me
Sometimes I don't know who's been looking back at me
If I'd look closer I know I would always see
Won't you reflect your light on me and I'll reflect on you
Let me really see just how I look to you
(Bridge)
When I act too tall, you bring me down to size
And when I feel too small you show me all the lies I try to tell myself
How can I thank you for all you've done for me?
And now I'm watching and I see me grow in you
I know that I've got so much growing left to do
Please keep me in your light from morning until night
Until I finally come into the image of the Son
Lucas McGraw, what's come over you?
We're beginnin' to think you're touched
We hear ya got religion
Ya ain't been 'round to see us much
Ya threw away your corncob pipe
And your jug of moonshine brew
And we hear ya ain't been doin'
All those things you used to do
Lucas McGraw, what's come over you?
You're shavin' ev'ry day
You ain't been chasin' women
And you kissed your wife today
You went to church last Sunday
And you shook the preacher's hand
And they say that you been talkin'
'Bout a home beyond this land
Lucas McGraw, what's come over you?
Ya never cuss no more
We hear you ain't been feudin'
You hung your rifle by the door
Ya take a bath each Sunday
If ya need it or not
And ya go to work on Monday
Even when it's hot
Lucas McGraw, what's come over you?
We're beginnin' to think you're touched
We hear ya got religion
Ya ain't been 'round to see us much
But ya know we've all been wonderin'
If what ya got just might be real
And all the while we're laughin'
Is it really God, Is it really God

Based on 1 Corinthians 13
Love is patient, love is kind
No eyes of envy, true love is blind
Love is humble, it knows no pride
No selfish motive hidden inside
Love is gentle, makes no demands
Despite all wrong, true live still stands
Love is holy, love is pure
It lasts forever, it will endure
(Chorus)
Love knows when to let go
Love knows when to say no
Love grows in the light of the Son
And love shows the world that the Son of Love has come
Love is loyal, believes the best
It loves the truth, love stands the test
Love is God sent in His Son
Love forgives all we have done
In this world where hatred seems to grow
True love goes against the flow
And becomes so hard to show
In this world where push turns to shove
We have strength to rise above
Through the power of His love
Lord, we need to know the power of Your love

From the earth to the cross

From the cross to the grave
From the grave to the sky

Based on Psalm 17:15
In the likeness of You
Recreated, renewed
Let me awake forever
In the likeness
In the likeness of You
Now I lay me down to sleep
My heart and soul are Yours to keep
I close my eyes and try to see
More of You and less of me
Jesus, I'm trusting in You
So while I'm sleeping
Keep me dreaming
Of when I will awake
In the likeness of You
Recreated, renewed
Resurrected by Your righteousness
In Your likeness
In the likeness of You
Men dream of fortune and fame
Making the rules, naming the game
And men dream of things they can hold
Money and power, silver and gold
Jesus, I'm dreaming of You
Take me and melt me, mold me
Until I am complete
In the likeness of You
Recreated, renewed
Resurrected by Your righteousness
In the likeness of You
In the likeness of You
So faithful and true
Let me awake forever in the likeness of You
The likeness of You
I want to be
I want to be like You
In all I say
In all I do
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Jesus, I'm thankful for your love
And it's been you I've been thinking of
I've got a home in heaven above
You gave me my life when I was losing, I was choosing my own way
And with a miracle you changed me, rearranging me each day
Now I'm so thankful for your presence taking residence within
You've given me that sweet assurance of endurance to the end
(chorus)
Jesus, I'm thankful for your love
And it's been you I've been thinking of
I've got a home in heaven above
Father, I'm thankful I'm your son
And I believe you're the only one
Who could have forgiven all that I've done
Sometimes we forget the victory's won
Taking for granted what you've done
Forgetting to thank you for your Son
Now every day I know you're with me to assist me in the fight
And I know my life will not be hollow when I follow in your light
I'm not ashamed to say I need You
You satisfy my every need
And when I yield to You
And give my love
You always set me free
I'm not ashamed to talk about You
You've given me a love to share
I know You died and rose
And will return to meet us in the end
I'm not ashamed, I've been forgiven
I have no need to run and hide
And when You take my hand
I know that there's no need to be afraid
I'm not ashamed to say I love You
And I know You first loved me
And when I hear Your voice

I will seek You

The earth is shakin'
It's like a bad dream
This world is crumblin'
Comin' apart at the seam but
I am on the Rock
Everywhere I'm turning it's only bad news
This bomb is tickin' and we're getting to the end of the fuse but
I am on the Rock
(Chorus)
I am on the Rock, the sure foundation
I am on the Rock, His revelation
Though the winds may blow
And though the floods may grow
I shall not be moved, 'cause I am on the Rock
The storm's approaching, I'm standing high and dry
Firmly planted on the Rock that is higher than I
I am on the Rock
Kingdoms failing, they fall around me
Plans eroded, and washing away to the sea
I don't have much to offer You, I don't have much to give,
there's so much I may never be as long as I may live
and I may never Be all I want to be although I'll always try.
but if you choose me to use me, there's just one reason Y
Chorus:
I am available, I am available, I will go when You say go,I am available,
I am available,I will stop when You say no.

I'm not the most dependable,sometimes you can't rely,

We have sung our songs of victory
We have prayed to you for rain
We have cried your compassion
To renew the land again
Now we're standing in your presence
More hungry than before
Now we're on your steps of mercy and we're knocking at your door
How long
Before you drench the barren land
how long
Before we see a righteous man
How long
Before your name is lifted high
How long
Before the weeping turns to songs of joy
Lord, we know your heart is broken
By the evil that you see
And you've stayed your hand of judgment
For your plan to set men free
But the land is still in darkness
And we've fled from what is right
And we've failed the silent children
Who will never see the light
But I know a day is coming
When the deaf will hear his voice
When the blind will see the savior
And the lame will leap for joy
When a widow finds a husband
Who will always love his bride
And the orphan finds a father
Who will never leave her side
How long
Before your glory lights the skies
How long
Before your radiance lifts our eyes
How long
Before your fragrance fills the air
How long
Before the earth resounds with songs of joy

Based on Luke 10:30-37, 1 John 3:17
Where are the amber waves of grain
When one of our homeless native sons has hunger pain
Under the overpass they build a fire for heat
They can't remember when they had a meal to eat
Some sleep in doorways waiting for the day
Some sleep in boxes we have thrown away
Under the red, white and blue
Right down the street in our view
We're not doing all we can do
To shelter the homeless few
Shelter the homeless few
Standing in line for soup and bread
Hoping tonight the downtown mission has a bed
Dreaming about the home they thought they'd never lose
Sleeping on benches covered by the daily news
People who pass them by just turn their heads
Making them feel like they've been left for dead
Under the red, white and blue
Right down the street from our pew
We're not doing all we can do
To shelter the homeless few
Shelter the homeless few
It's up to me
It's up to you
We're not doing all we can do
To shelter the homeless few
Shelter the homeless few

Everybody's talking about power
Power to the people they say
Everybody tryin' to get more power
They're goin' in circles today
I'm sick of this jive, gonna hop in my rod
Gonna motivate clear across town
Gonna go to church, gonna end my search
Gonna fill my soul with power
(Chorus)
Holy Ghost power gonna fill you today
Holy Ghost power gonna take you away
Holy Ghost power gonna fill you within
Holy Ghost power gonna save you from sin
Don't give me no jive, you ain't even alive

Better ask Him in and forget your sin
Let Him fill your soul with power

Based on 1 Timothy 4:12, Ephesians 4:1
You want to change - with all of your might
You want to do right in His sight
It's His delight to give you your desire
It's His desire to set your life on fire
Sometimes it hurts when reprimanded
It hurts Him more than it's hurtin' you
He'll pick you up from where you landed
When He knocks you down, turns your life around
He'll turn your life around
Hit you where you live you can't hold it back
When you're struck by His love you will know
Hit you where you live, it's so close to home
When you're all sold out the mark will show
Let Him hit you where you live
The evidence leads to conviction
When we don't live everything we say
There's got to be a crucifixion
We can live dying everyday
You've got to tell Him He's free to take a shot
He wants to hit you with everything He's got
A lost and dying world is dying to know
He lives
The only way they'll know what He has to give
Is when we're hit where we live

Based on Jeremiah 1:5, Acts 17:25
It could have gone either way when it came down to the choice
To keep the life within a life that had no voice
It must have surely seemed the harder road to choose
To be so young to have to say who had the most to lose
But she came through like a champ and she blessed the world that day
Then gave the hope of a better life when she gave him away
Now the innocence and joy is there each day he wakes
Expressions of his love of life in every breath he takes
He could have been thrown away before he had a chance to say
(Chorus)
Hey world, I am here and I have something to give
Hey world, I'm alive and I am wanting to live
He turned to lock the door as he wiped away a tear
The hopelessness of missing love, his adolescent fear
As he struggled for the strength to put the gun away
He found the courage and the hope to face another day
He could have been blown away before he had a chance to say
Down the corridor or life in between our death and birth
We may start to lose our way in the search to find our worth
Our value comes in the fact we live
Life is a gift only God can give
Words by Brian Wooten
Music by Jim Cooper & Brian Wooten
The fearless giant faced a brave young shepherd boy
He said, "Your God is dead and your nation soon destroyed"
But the son of Jesse proved what God can do in the heart of a hero
Three men refused to bow to the idol made of gold
They knew they could burn for not doing what they're told
They'd rather face the fire than to kneel to a god made by hands
Chorus
It takes the heart of a hero
To stand for what's right
It takes the heart of a hero
To lay down your life
There are idols to be worshipped and giants in the land
They'll drag you down, attack your faith and slay you if they can
So let your heart be filled with the courage and strength of the Lord
Repeat chorus
Have the faith of a child
And the power of God
And when you call on His name
He will give you the heart of a hero
Will you stand for what's right?
Would you lay down your life?
Do you have heart?
Repeat chorus
Here in my hour of need
I am lonely, forsaken again
I'm wounded and left here to bleed
With no solace from a stranger or friend
Who hears my cry to revive and restore
One who has been here before
He's been in my shoes
Been down this road before
He's been tested too
He's been through this door
He feels the pain and He heals the bruise
He's been in my shoes
He's been in my shoes
The Union of God in a man
Is a mystery that I can't understand
But now with my suffering known
I'm reminded that I'm never alone
Who has been tried and been tempted this way?
Jesus who now hears me pray
He was a man just like me
But He lived His life blamelessly
Now I'm beginning to see
He holds my hand
Words by Bob Hartman
Based on 1 Kings 18:46, John 10:28-29
Got Your hand on my heart and
I won't walk away
Got a hold of my life and I'm here to stay
Got Your hand on my heart
I remember when You first touched my heart
And the seed of life within began its start
Now I've finally found security
Now I finally see I'm Yours eternally
You've got Your hand on me
(Chorus)
Got Your hand on my heart and
I won't walk away
Got a hold of my life and
I'm here to stay
Got Your hand on my heart
And now I know
That You won't let me go
You're never gonna let me go
I don't want to lose another day
Feeling You're a million miles away
I just want to know without a doubt
I will always feel Your loving hand is reaching out
I feel Your touch every night, every day
With Your hand on my pulse
I won't easily stray
But if I ever do, a gentle tug will pull me through
I just have to let You know
That I love You so
we will worship the Maker of all things
Almighty God, to You our voices sing
Hallowed be Thy Name
Hallowed be Thy Name
You are the Holy One
Father, Spirit, Son
King of kings and Lord of lords
Hallowed be
Hallowed be
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Dreamin' about flyin' since I was a boy
Never thought I'd see the real mccoy
I think it's safe to say
I finally found a way
Gonna fly away
Gonna fly away
Every day I've been looking in the sky
Hope it's not raining when I start to fly
I bet you think I'm strange
Wait until I'm changed
Gonna fly away
Gonna fly away
Where you gonna be when the trumpet blows?
All that's left of me is gonna be my clothes
I'd really like to see
You flyin' next to me
Gonna fly away
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on Colossians 1:13, Ephesians 2:1-7, Isaiah 61:1,2
You used to play their games
You used to stay the same
They used to hold you back
They knew the best attack
They thought they had a better hold on you
They thought that you would always stay true blue
They couldn't stop you - they had no defense
You went under the wire - you went over the fence
Defector - you broke the chains away
Defector - a higher power you obey
Now they have no hold on you - you've broken through
But don't forget to read the signs 'cause
You still live behind - enemy lines
Defector
They used to drag you down
They used to have you bound
Just like a ball and chain
But they could not restrain
They thought that you could never break away
They thought that you would always go their way
They had you tied up habitually
They never figured you could ever get free
You got away clean but it don't come free
Another man paid with His on agony for...
Freedom
Freedom
Words by Russ Ballard
You can learn to dance
Or you can be a square
You can let the music take you anywhere
But where will you be when the music's gone
You can learn to sing
You can play guitar
You can learn to rock
You can be a star
(Chorus)
God gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone
If you love the sound
Then don't forget the source
You can turn around
You can change your course
'Cause it's never too late to change your mind
You can love the rock
And let Him free your soul
Or you can let the old man take his toll
It's never too late to change your mind
Repeat Chorus
2 Corinthians 10:4, James 5:16
Words and Music by Bob Hartman
Out on your own with your own self reliance
You've got no one to watch your back
You find yourself caught with no strong alliance
You've been left open for attack
Over your head the condition is graver
You've given ground you can't retreive
The cards are stacked and they're not in your favor
But you've got an ace up your sleeve
[Chorus]
Get on your knees and fight like a man
You'll pull down strongholds if you just believe you can
Your enemy will tuck his tail and flee
Get on your knees and fight like a man
Under the gun you've got no place to hide out
Backed in the corner on your own
This is one storm you are destined to ride out
One way to leave the danger zone
You've got the backbone to fight this tide
You've got the will to survive
You've got the weapon, it's at your side
Words and music by Bob Hartman
I don't know what I've been told
Joe Smith has seen Moroni
It's getting so a man can't tell
Who's real and who's a phony
Get back to the Bible
It's telling you the way to go
Jesus is the answer to everything you need to know
"Hare Krishna" may be fun to sing
But it ain't gonna get you to heaven
The only one who's gonna get you there
His number is a perfect seven
Get back to the Bible
It's telling you the way to go
Jesus is the answer to everything you need to know
Satan worship may be cool and hip
But when are you gonna learn?
There's a place that's set for you and him
Man, you know you're gonna burn
So get back to the Bible
It's telling you the way to go
Words and music by John Wierick
Friends, love one another
Friends, sisters and brothers
Friends, all in the family of God
Friends are a gift from above
Friends are devoted and true
Then when the goin' gets tough
They're lovin', carin' and prayin' for you
Words and music by Bob Hartman
(Chorus)
We need Your deep love to keep us strong
We need Your truth to show us right from wrong
We need Your sweet peace to keep us calm
We need Your comfort to show us we belong to You
Sometimes we're like a river
Always running from our Source
But when we wonder why we're almost runnin' dry
You restore us and return us to our course
Sometimes we get so desperate
Straying further from the fold
But when it seems that we're losing all our dreams
There's a Shepherd with a loving hand to hold
Forgive us Lord
For thinking we can make it without You in this world
We're so foolish
Sometimes we're like a fortress
With our walls built all around
But then Your love comes shining down from above
And we stand and watch our walls come tumbling down
Romans 6:11, Galatians 2:20
Words and Music by Bob Hartman
It's a new day at last but you're sinking so fast
If left up to your head you'd remember the past
But a new day has come and new life has begun
Let the old pass away, reconsider it done
There's got to be a reckoning
When you feel the Spirit beckoning
[Chorus]
It's a dead reckoning
Trade the old for the new
It's a dead reckoning
Learn to die daily till the new life comes through
It's a dead reckoning
You've got nothing to lose but you do have to choose
When the Spirit says yes but the flesh will refuse
And although you feel odd there are many who trod
Till they're dead to the world but alive unto God
Some still believe it can't be done
To the steady the race is still won
[Chorus]
And the battle is already through
And it's hard to believe but it's true
On a hill long ago where the blood runs below
Died a King, two thieves and you.
Words by Bob Hartman
Based on Matthew 10:31
Hold on to life for all you're worth
You know He died for all you're worth
He loves you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth
By this time you know the story
There's nothing there you haven't heard
You can cross the line of knowing
And your heart believing His Word
Do you think He brought you this far
Just to leave you wondering where and who you are
Just think back to where it began
Jesus called you name and then you just took His hand
Even gold still needs refining
Burning off impurities
Even diamonds grow in value
When they're cut so carefully
There's no life beyond His repair
You will find Him waiting just beyond a prayer
He invested all that He had
Don't you think it hurts Him inside to see you sad
He has His eye on you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth
For all you're worth
Some say this life I live is only foolishness
No waiting pot of gold in the faith that I possess
But the treasures of this life will slowly turn to dust
And this fool will find his gold in the Savior that I trust
Fool's gold
It's waiting in a crown
Fool's gold
In a city coming down
I'll leave the gold I can't afford for
For the higher prize I'm pressing toward
I'll preach the "foolish" cross of Christ and wait for my reward
Fool's gold
The wisdom of the cross is easy to receive
But only foolishness to them that don't believe
They may say that I'm a fool for the cross that I proclaim
But the gold that I must seek won't be found in earthly things
When the crowns of gold are laid before His feet
Then the worthy Lamb of God is a treasure we will keep
Some may call me foolish, some may call me odd
Words by Bob Hartman
Based on Revelation 2:9, 1 John 4:19, Song of Solomon 2:4
Sometimes I feel I'm pulled in so many wrong directions
Sometimes I feel the world seducing my affections
It's not that I don't know the way
It's just a heart that's prone to stray
But with my weaknesses admitted
You will keep all that I've committed
So I commit my heart to You
My First Love
First Love - First Love
My soul longs after You
First Love - First Love
I want my heart to stay so true
Because You first loved me
Jesus You will always be
You will always be
My First Love
It's taken me some time to try to comprehend
A love that doesn't change - a love without an end
A love that keeps forgiving
A love of sacrifice and giving
I delight myself in You
My First Love
If I ever lack endurance
I remember Your assurance
That Your only banner over me is love
If my heart begins to waiver
Woo me back, my loving Savior
Woo me back till I return to my First Love
Words and music by Bob Hartman
You made the sun to light the day
You made the moon to light the night
You made me your son to light the world
But I still need more of Your light
Father of lights shine down on me
In all the dark places I'll never see
Only your light can take the night from me
There is no shadow under You
There is no place darkness has to hide
So search me and show me where You've never been
Help me let Your light inside
So let it shine, shine, shine
And it will chase away the darkness
Let it shine, shine, shine
And it will chase away the night
Just when I think there is no more darkness
Just when I think I've seen all Your light
You show me a corner I've kept from You
My fear and pride keeps it out of sight
Letra y Msica by Bob Hartman
Los levitas volvieron con el arca de Dios
Con presencia y poder adoraban al Seor
El templo cerraron comenzaron a cantar
Hasta que las naciones los pudieran escuchar
Sean alzadas oh puertas eternas
Y el Rey de Gloria entrar
Quien es el Rey de Gloria
El Dios poderoso
Abre tus puertas al Dios de Israel
Quin es el rey de Gloria
El fuerte en batalla
El Rey de Glora entrar
El Rey de Glora entrar

Solo el humilde Su rostro ver
Sean alzadas oh puertras eternas
Y el Rey de Glroia
El Dios poderoso
Abre tus puertas al Dios de Israel
Quin es el rey de Gloria
El fuerte en batalla

Y el Rey de Glroia
El Dios poderoso
Abre tus puertas al Dios de Israel
Quin es el rey de Gloria
El fuerte en batalla
El Rey de Glora entrar
El Rey de Glora entrar
Time is a gift on loan
Fate is already known
It's your destiny to make it to the end
It's your destiny to go against the trend
Heavenly destiny, destiny
Plans are already laid
Debts are already paid
It's your destiny, your place
Within His will
It's your destiny, you alone can fill
Heavenly destiny
When you gonna see you're meant to be
You're chosen out of history
No one else can take your place
The one and only in the human race
One of a kind
When you gonna see He has a will
For you and only you fulfill your destiny
The steps of a righteous man
Are led by a Master's plan
It's your destiny, don't forsake the call
It's your destiny, a stone within the wall
It's your destiny, no accidental call
It's your destiny, you were meant to be
It's your destiny, only you can see
Proverbs 23:7, 1 Peter 1:13, Philippians 4:8, 2 Corinthians 10:5
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
Everything that you do and see, one more event in your memory
Every bit takes another bite without control over wrong or right
You must screen every entry made, the consequences must be weighed
The only way to security is every thought in captivity
Computer Brains, put garbage in
Computer Brains, get garbage out
Computer Brains, programming you
Computer Brains, what can you do Break out
Are you a user or being used; has your memory been abused
Take random samples from your mind and analyze what you may find
You can clear all memory and be transformed when you find the key
Words and music by Bob Hartman
We are like stones built together in a wall
Made up of whosoever the Master Builder calls
We are not worthy but together we are strong
Built on the Rock of Ages the wall is almost done
(Chorus)
Come and join us in the sunlight
You've been sittin' in the shade too long
Come and give us a chance to sing you a song
Come and join us in the sunlight
If you would reach you could touch the sky
Come and drink from the well that will never run dry
We are like stranger and pilgrims in this world
Lifting the blood stained banner our flag has been unfurled
We have a homeland no eyes have ever seen
But those who've gone before us whose souls have been redeemed
Repeat Chorus
We are like children held in the Father's hand
Growing into the image of Christ the Son of Man
We are not perfect but changing every day
Through trials and tribulation we'll find the perfect way
Repeat Chorus
Letra y Msica by Michael O'Shields
Clamar a mi Seor
Porque El es digno de loor
De mis enemigos me salvar
Jess vive
Bendita sea la roca
El Dios de mi salvacin sea exaltado
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
Peace be unto you
My peace I give to you
In this world you'll surely find
Trials of many different kinds, but
Chorus:
Be of good cheer
Be of good cheer
For I have overcome this world
Be of good cheer
Be of good cheer
For now I go away
But I will return
To take you to a place to dwell
So where I am you'll be as well
CHORUS
In this world you'll surely find
Trials of many different kinds
But I will not forsake you then
I'll be with you until the end
CHORUS
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Please tell me what makes me feel this way
I've been down to the bottom and I don't want to stay
Tell me what can I do
To get back to You?
I got the blues
Those backslidin' blues
I can see it, I've been on the wrong road
And I'm too tired to carry such a heavy load
Satan's marking me now
I can't take it no more
I got the blues
Those backslidin' blues
Have mercy, take me back once again
I'll never be perfect and I sure haven't been
I know that you will
But you know that until
I got the blues
Those blackslidin' blues
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on Matthew 28:19, 22:9
It's so easy to lose the burden - Take our eyes off the fields
Settle into apathy and forget what the harvest yields
It's so easy to think we're finished with our labor for awhile
Kick back and let somebody else go the extra mile
(Chorus)
Jesus said Go (Go!) into all the world
Make disciples of all men
We gotta Go (Go!) to the highways and compel them to come in
As long as there's a tearful eye that cries alone at night
As long as there's a weary soul ready to end the fight
As long as there's an aching heart that still has strength to beat
We gotta take this message back to the street
We gotta take this message back to the street
It's so easy to stay untangled in everyone else's life
Don't get involved with strangers - don't get involved with strife
It's so easy to save your own life - resting on what you've done
But Jesus would leave the ninety nine to try to save the one
It's not easy to beat the system
It's not easy to face the heat
But somebody's got to take this message
Back to the street
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Now that you've heard the music
Where do you go from here
You see music only takes you to the place
Where you're ready to hear
We could sing and tell you we love you
And you could say it wasn't true
But how can you say that about a man
Who died for you
(Chorus)
Jesus is holding out His love to you
But He made it so that you have to choose
How can you walk away empty again
When you know that you've got nothing to lose
You could probably think of a reason
To wait until another day
But the spirit is speaking, telling you
Today is the day
Jesus gave His life as a ransom
Was crucified and laid in a grave
But He rose again and made a new way
For man to be saved
Repeat Chorus
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on 2 Corinthians 10:4, Ephesians 6:11-17
It used to be a distant call
Thought to be for some but never all
Now our wounded lay on every side
Now this call to arms can't be denied
The enemy will tremble
As young and old assemble
A mighty army up in arms
(Chorus)
Armed and dangerous
God's enemies will scatter
Armed and dangerous
We'll see the darkness shatter
This armor is worth it's weight
No weapon can penetrate
Armed and dangerous
We're ready to storm the gate
We're not so tough on our own
Not one can even stand all alone
Just a rag tag army at its best
We sometimes even fail the smallest test
But though this tribulation
There comes a transformation
We don the armor of our King
Stand!
Up against the flood
Stand!
Covered by His blood
We are the standard He has raised
Stand!
Earnestly contend
Stand!
To the very end
We've only just begun to fight
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on Psalm 119:105, Proverbs 10:30
Another day of indecision - there's a battle in my head
It's not a matter of submission - I'll go where I'm led
But my mind keeps changing every day
I need your peace to point the way
(Chorus)
And now I'm at another crossroad
And I don't know which way to go
My steps are ordered and I know I'll find the way
When your Word lights the path and I obey
When your Word lights the path and I obey
Sometimes I feel a hesitation - is it me or is it You
I only need some kind of clue - I just need an indication
It's not hard to miss a turn along the way
I know I've missed some in my day
I don't want to be wrong
I want to do what's right
I know that you can lead me through the maze
When I acknowledge you in all my ways
Letra y Msica by Bob Hartman

Letra y Msica by John Wierick
Amigos siempre se aman
Amigos hermanos y hermanas
Amigos en la familia de Dios
Son un regalo de Dios
Son verdaderos oh si
Y cuando las cosas no salen bien
Te aman te cuidan y oran por ti oh
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
(Chorus)
Because your love came down
Your love came down
Your love came down
And it saved, it saved me
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
'Twas grace that brought me safe this far
And grace will lead me home
When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright-shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun
Words by Bob Hartman
Based on Matthew 6:5,16, James 4:6
I can tell by the look on your face
It's another day of fasting
I can tell by the length of the shadow
That your face is casting
And you look both ways before you pray
Just to see who's watching you today
(Chorus)
It's just your altar ego - and it's so hard to know
Beneath the piety and hidden vanity begins to show
It's just your altar ego - and you don't even know
And you won't even grow til His Spirit strikes a bow
To your altar ego
You love to seen by men
In all the public places
And you always pick the best of the seats
You've got the social graces
Can you be so proud of respect you've won
When your left hand knows what the irght has done
Turn around and face the One
Who knows your heart
He knows your heart
Genesis 15:2, Matthew 5:6, Hebrews 12:29, Psalms 40:2
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
This thirsting within my soul
Won't cease till I've been made whole
To know You, to walk with You
To please You in all I do
You uphold the righteous and Your faithfulness shall endure
Adonai, Master of the earth and sky
You alone are worthy, Adonai
Adonai, let creation testify
Let Your majesty be magnified in me
Adonai you are an endless mystery
Unchanging consuming fire
Lift me up from mud and mire
Set my feet on Your rock, let me dwell in Your righteousness
When the storms surround me, speak the word and they will be still
Words and music by Rob Frazier
Standing alone with my dreams and my plans
But I cannot find love without You
I'm feeling my way with my senses and discovering
That I cannot find love, I cannot find love
Without You
(Chorus)
But I'm discovering Your love is so strong
that I believe what I knew all along
Love would not try to live on without You
I can search high on a mountain so tall
But I will not find love without You (not without You)
Or look for Your love in my people who don't know you
But I will not find love
I cannot find love
Without You
Not without You
Without You
There's no sun behind the rain
Without You
There's no reason for the pain
Without You
There's no love to help me live
'Cause of You
I believe that love is true
Because of You
I can give to others too
Because I know
That You gave the best You had to give
You gave your sweet Son
So I could live
by Bob Hartman
Based on Col. 3:17
I could never hide away in a place that You won't see
Caught between the way I am and the way I want to be
You can take away the mask that hides the man inside
You illuminate the ways of darkness I denied
And even though You see
You keep on lifting me
(Chorus)
Till everything I do I do for You
Through every test of faith You take me through
Till every path I take is straight and true
Till everything I do I do for You
One by one You chip away at the edges of my heart
Till You see the hardness and the willfulness depart
You let me see my pride
Then pull me to Your side
(Chorus)
Though I grow closer to the image You intend for me
I won't be all I'm meant to be
Till face to face I see
(Chorus)
Hold that blanket closer Mary dear
All the world waits with you for your day
But for now the wind is cold and it's drear
And Bethlehem's still so far away
Do you remember the way you felt back then?
Joy and wonder filled your soul and when
The angel slipped away
You knew your life would never be the same
(Chorus)
And now you're traveling, traveling on a road to Bethlehem
Wandering thoughts fly away
If you knew the road that lay ahead of Him
Would you break down and cry?
Your child is born to die
Feel that hand of strength upon your own
A husband's love that guides along the way
And as his understanding has grown,
His hopes too are centered on that day
For do you remember the way he looked back then,
Pain and sorrow filled his eyes until when
The angel came to say
The Savior's birth was meant to be this way
Think back on that promise you received
For him in whom the prophets long believed
Now belongs to you, you've been chosen too
But He's the One Who's gonna shine
We call His name Jesus, Immanuel
He'll save His people from sin and hell
And of His kingdom there will be no end
Everybody look there's a new bandwagon in town
Hop on board and let the wind carry you around
Seems like there's not enough to keep us busy
till the Lord comes back
Don Quixote's gotta have another windmill to attack
Another Witch Hunt looking for evil wherever we can find it
Off on a tangent, hope the Lord won't mind it
Another Witch Hunt, takin' a break from all our gospel labor
On a crusade but we forgot our saber
There's a new way to spend all our energies
We're up in arms instead of down on our knees
Walkin' over dollars trying to find another dime
Never mind the souls 'cause we really haven't got the time
So send out the dogs and tally ho
Before we sleep tonight we've got miles to go
No one is safe, no stones left unturned
And we won't stop until somebody gets burned
Ps. 18
Moving through the shadows of uncertainty
Clinging to the words You said
Through my loneliness and fear
I long to feel you near
But I hear another voice inside my head
But then the darkness is broken into
By inescapable light from You
I'm never standing alone
Chorus:
You Are my Rock
My Fortress, my Shield
You Are my Rock
Let Your Strength be revealed
My Rock, my Comfort, my Peace
My Salvation, my Refuge, my God
You Are my Rock
Through the desperate night
My soul cries out to You
Longing just to hear Your Voice
In the quiet solitude
I sense your magnitude
And feel the Strength
That makes my heart rejoice
You Are the Anchor securing me
I'll never drift on the shifting sea
You Are the Eye of the storm
Repeat Chorus
Through all loneliness
This world could ever bring
I'll take my refuge
In the Shadow of Your Wing
How can, how can we who are dead to sin
Live any longer therein?
We've been, we have been called and loved and forgiven
Our old life is forgotten
(Chorus)
Do you remember what he's called you out of?
Do you remember where you were?
Let us not take advantage of his love
That we forget that we have been forgiven
Without Him we can do nothing
I know, I know where I was when He found me
With so much confusion around me
He's been, He has been all that we would let Him

Music by John Elefante & Dino Elefante
Here we are gathered once again under Your Name
Thinking of the ways we all have caused You shame
But we can find consolation in the things that You said
We are all bound in our hearts by a common thread
We look to You who made us one
To give us strength and bring our hearts back to where we've begun
Chorus
So together we hold all our hearts out to You
And we all can believe You know just what to do
Heal and forgive us, make us all just like new
Jesus, we hold our hearts out to You
Jesus, we hold our hearts out to You
Sometimes we forget what it is that brings us here
Sometimes we forget what it means to be sincere
And there are times we are bothered when we don't seem to feel
Then we all focus on the One who makes things real
We look around and we feel strong
We feel Your presence then we know that this is where we belong
Repeat chorus
And when we hold out all our lost and shattered dreams
You will be binding every heart with broken seams
With a warm and loving hand
You understand
Repeat chorus
I was just a young man with a burning fuse
Headed in the wrong way till I heard the news
'Bout a substitution blood shed for me
'Bout a grace so amazing it can make a man free
Now I'm rescued pulled from the mud
It's all behind me under the blood
Underneath the blood through the cleansing flood
Guilt is left behind never brought to mind
I'm an innocent man, underneath the blood
Now a little older I recall the past
Farther from me than east is from west
But in all the wisdom that my growing brings
I can't seem to put down all my childish things
Where do I go when I've missed the mark
And my heart starts feeling like it's stained and dark
Only know one way to go take it to the crimson flood
Underneath the blood through the cleansing flood
Guilt is left behind never brought to mind
Underneath the blood pulled up from the mud
Feet on solid ground what was lost is found
I'm an innocent man, underneath the blood
I'm an innocent man, underneath the blood
Underneath the blood through the cleansing flood
Guilt is left behind never brought to mind
Underneath the blood pulled up from the mud
Feet on solid ground what was lost is found

You can call me up in the night
I will pray till you win the fight
We're more than friends
We walk together
Through any weather
We sharpen each other
Chorus
I'll be there when you call
Lift you up when you fall
Two are better than one
You will pray when I'm weak
Help me back on my feet
Two are better than one
Two are better than one
When I start to cross the line
You just seem to read my mind
And then you bust me
Then turn around and trust me
Come to the rescue
I'll do the same for you
Repeat Chorus
I don't want to go solo
It's always better with two
I just want someone to lift me up
To pray and help me get through
Repeat Chorus

In solitary time the thoughts run through my mind
Some from the very throne some origins unknown
I know there's a danger waiting
Thoughts held in captivity
The vain imaginations that long to be set free
I hold the key
With thoughts of purity
chorus
Whatever things are pure and true,
(I want to)
Think on these things
Whatever things are filled with virtue
Think on these things
When my mind begins to stray
I want to think the other way
Think on these things
Think on these things
Into the conscious flow the tributaries go
The source from which they start
Abundance of the heart
My mind has a mind of its own
choosing negativity
Only the thoughts of virtue
Withhold the raging sea
I turn the tide
By choosing to abide
repeat chorus
Whatever things are honest
Whatever things are just
Whatever things are lovely
I will put my trust
In the things that never cease
To keep my heart in perfect peace
repeat chorus

Words and Music by Bob Hartman
Gazing out across this desert world
There are thirsty souls everywhere you go
Searching for a drink to satisfy
Their thirsty hearts till they overflow
They come up empty when the sun comes down
And they look around and they wonder why
Their grand delusion seems to quickly fade
When their own supply leaves them high and dry
They could be drinking living water till they're satisfied
Whosoever will won't ever be denied
[Chorus]
The water is alive - There is no doubt
The water is alive - Feel it flowing out
Alive - Coming from within
Alive - And I will never thirst again
And now beneath the desert stars tonight
The oasis waits for those who roam
It seems so hard to think there was a time
That I used to call this wasteland home
He lets me drink the living water till I'm satisfied
Whosoever will won't ever be denied
Now and forever it will satisfy your thirsty soul
Now and forever living water makes your spirit whole
You could be drinking living water till you're satisfied
Red is the color of the blood that flowed
Down the face of someone who loved us so
He's the perfect man, He's the Lord's own Son
He's the Lamb of God, He's the only one
That can give us life, that can make us grow
That can make the love between us flow
Blue is the color of a heart so cold
That will not bend when the story's told
Of the love of God for a sinful race
Of the blood that flowed down Jesus' face
That can give us life, that can make us grow
That can keep our hearts from growing cold
Gold is the color of the morning sun
That shines so freely on everyone
It's the sun above that keeps us warm
It's the Son of love that calms the storm
That can give us life, that can make us grow
That can turn our mornings into gold
Brown is the color of the autumn leaves
When the winter comes to the barren trees
There is birth; There is death
There is a plan
And there's just one God
And there's just one Man
That can give us life, that can make us grow
That can make our sins as white as snow
That can give is life, that can make us grown
That can turn our mornings into gold
That can give us life, that can make us grow
That can keep our hearts from growing cold
That can give us life, that can make us grow
Western world where the strong survive
And the meek will inherit the dregs
Living now in the twilight time
Will the world hear the answer it begs?
Secular and sacred blur
Without even raising a flag
When so many masters call
Is it the tail or the dog that will wag?
With some among us weak at the knees
And many others who do as they please
There still remains a witness
The few who will stand and say
I've got strong convictions 'bout the way that I live
I've got no concessions that I'm willing to give
Strong convictions that are worth living by
Strong convictions till the day I die
It's so hard seeing black and white
When so much appears to be gray
With no faith in the absolute
It's no wonder the standard will stray
With bold convictions leading the way
With those who have them willing to say
There's a new horizon
I can say for me and mine
Pressure makes the perfect diamond
Measure of the saints refining
Don't ever want to stray
I really want to stay
The battle cry is getting louder
The countdown's close to the final hour
The enemy is on every side
But still no match for the Crucified
Victory unto victory
We are soldiers in his army
Stand up, take a stand for Jesus
Stand up so the whole world sees us
Showing the way in a world gone astray
Shining our light with all of our might
Stand up, take a stand for Jesus
Stand up so the whole world sees us
Following Him and serving Him
Fighting the fight that we know we will win
Out of our pews and into the streets
Making some use of our beautiful feet
Redeeming the time for the days are evil
This whole world's in such upheaval
We wrestle not with flesh and blood
But when the enemy comes in like a flood
Gotta lay our lives down
And stand up for the truth we've found
Whoa, sleepin' the night away
Darkness enclosing the world so desperate for day
We're under the spell of dis-unity ooh ho
When will this giant awake and stand and be free
Now the hour has come
To awaken and redeem the time given to the night
Curse this darkness and stand in the light
Can you hear the alarm echo down the hall?
(The sleeping giant gets a wake up call)
Awake from your sleep 'cause it's time to stand tall
(The sleeping giant gets a wake up call)
(The sleeping giant gets a wake up call)
(Hey hey hey)
Whoa, been sleeping so long, yea
How can we hope to discern the right from the wrong?
The gauntlet is thrown in the face of denial ooh ha
Each time we sleep through an inch we're losing a mile
We will get this rude awakening to reality
And arise in unity
Can you hear the alarm echo down the hall?
(The sleeping giant gets a wake up call)
Awake from your sleep 'cause it's time to stand tall
(The sleeping giant gets a wake up call)
(The sleeping giant gets a wake up call)
(Hey hey hey)
It's been dark for so long night is almost gone
(Always darkest before the dawn)
Sunlight soon appearing, a new day it will bring
(Do you feel it?)
Can you hear the alarm echo down the hall?
(The sleeping giant gets a wake up call)
Awake from your sleep 'cause it's time to stand tall
(The sleeping giant gets a wake up call)
(The sleeping giant gets a wake up call)

Got no place to run, gotta look up to see the bottom
No visible support - no one there you can lean on
You're all on your own - you know it's sink or swim
There is no doubt about it, you have to look to Him
When you think you've had enough
No more you can do
When you feel like giving up
Deadline is in view
When your time is almost gone
You haven't got a clue
Now's the time to turn your face
chorus
You're in the right place - trusting only Him
You're in the right place - kick back and just depend
You're in the right place - to see what He can do
You're in the right place - He will come through
When you're sinking fast - takin' water in your boat
No one to bail you out - you think it's all she wrote
The odds are against you - your chances slim to none
A hopeless situation - you got no place to run
No one has a rescue plan
Waiting in the wings
Now's the time to call His name
He can do all things
When your self-reliance fails
You still have a prayer
You will have to trust His grace
repeat chorus
When you abide, He will provide
Never shorthanded
When you will pray, He'll make a way
He won't leave you stranded
repeat chorus

It's not so hard to understand what people see in you
You tell them it's o.k. to have their cake and eat it too
You traded truth for Godless gain and no one will suspect
You're such a clever counterfeit of all that you reject
Pied Piper playing the tune they want to hear
Putting a tickle in their ear
Pied Piper wanting them all to follow you
No knowing where you lead them to
But all the time you're leading them astray
The sheep just sit there grinning as they listen to your lies
Never knowing when you pull the wool over their eyes
You've got them trained to say "How high"
Whenever you say jump
And those who disagree with you
You always seem to stump
You may not mean to harm a soul
You say you're innocent
But when the final tally comes
You made more than you spent
You knew they'd have to pay
The price of listening to you
You knew before too long
the enemy surrounds the perimeter
Searching for an opening
Sneaking 'round,
Tryin' to gain some ground
He's laying down a smokescreen
Never full he prowls about
For someone to devour
Blind with rage, his reign is threatened
By a greater power
Occupy, occupy
Standing firm, lifting high the holy standard
Occupy, occupy
'Till our captain marches in
He'll catch your eye with some cheap disguise
Or innocent distraction
Then he'll infiltrate the ranks
And split you into faction
He never sleeps but constantly
Is planning some new angle
A soldier must be diligent
To keep from getting tangled
He shall return with the armies of the Lord
The King of Kings, in vengeance wielding His sword
Gotta draw his power, watching for that hour
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
I saw Your picture hanging on the wall
Just an artist rendering that was all
The way You looked down in Your agony
Jogged my memory
And helped me to see
If a picture's worth a thousand words
Then it won't help me at all
Only words are never gonna say
What I feel for You today
Chorus
More than a thousand words won't say
More than my life will not repay
More than a thousand things I do
Won't make it up to You
I stopped a moment sitting all alone
Without a waiting call on the phone
Looked like a picture from a magazine
More serenity than I've ever seen
And if words cannot describe this day
Or the beauty of this scene
Tell me, how can I expect the words I say
To reflect the things I mean
Repeat Chorus
More than a thousand words won't tell
How You forgave me when I fell
More than a thousand words won't do
To say I love You
Simple words will never quite express
My gratitude to You
Until I cross the barrier
Mortal words will have to do
Repeat Chorus
These days shallow and feeble resolve abound
And true devotion and passionate fervor are seldom found
But there are those who often feel they're all alone
Those of whose identities are known
By the mark of the crucified Son
Praying, caring, loving, sharing
These are the marks of the cross, ohh
Giving, bearing, feeling, daring
To lay down your life on the line
Forgetting what you leave behind
And willing to suffer the loss
Of the marks of the cross
These days the search for detachment and solitude
Lead to retreating to fortresses no one would dare intrude
Then there are those whose restless burdens start to show
Those who unmistakably must know
There's no crown 'til we sugger the cross
Praying, caring, loving, sharing
These are the marks of the cross, ohh
Giving, bearing, feeling, daring
To lay down your life on the line
Forgetting what you leave behind
And willing to suffer the loss
Of the marks of the cross
All our identity rest in the knowledge
Of who we're created to be
We are His workmanship, made in His image
For all of creation to see
The marks of His pain and His glory
Praying, caring, loving, sharing
These are the marks of the cross, ohh
Giving, bearing, feeling, daring
To lay down your life on the line
Forgetting what you leave behind
And willing to suffer the loss
And the marks of the cross
Praying, caring, loving, sharing
2 Peter 2:20

Music by Bob Hartman and John Elefante
There are things that look attractive
on the surface of despair
There are things that hold my interest when I really shouldn't care
I have felt intoxicated viewing
pleasures from afar
But I've been illuminated when they're seen for what they are
Keep me ever closer
Save me from this strong seducing...
Magnet of the world
It reaches to my heart and pulls me
Magnet of the world
Wants to keep me far from You
If it wasn't for Your love that holds me
I would give in to the
Magnet of the world
When a compass pulled by magnetism points a different way
It's not hard to lose your bearings, it's not hard to go astray
Guide me with Your lighthouse
Keep me from the rocks and from this
When will I be free from this
The unfulfilling counterfeit
When will I learn to resist
The constant pull that does exist
Take me farther from this path
Of least resistance now
Will You show me how?
And if it wasn't for Your love
that holds me
I would give in to
The magnet of the world
It reaches to my heart and pulls me
Magnet of the world
Wants to keep me far from You
Magnet of the world
It reaches to my heart and pulls me
Magnet of the world
the world is looking for a revelation
we're always under their investigation
they look at us to hear what we got to say
They can't see Jesus when we stand in the way
they don't need no more elevated speeches
We're keeping Jesus just beyond their reaches
Can't see the forest for all of the trees
They won't see Jesus till we fall on our knees
Lift Him up higher and higher
Lift Him up set the world on fire
It doesn't take much theology
Just lift him up so the world can see
Lift him up tell the gospel story
Lift Him up let them see His glory
It doesn't take any Bible degree
Just lift Him up so the world can see
Sometimes they just can't see beyond the haze
Or find their way through the religious maze
Just like Zaccheus they're trying to see
They got to somehow see beyond you and me
Oh, how the world needs to see him
So they can believe Him
Oh, how can we ever hide Him
As if we had denied Him
Oh, how could He ever draw them
If they never saw Him
Oh, how can they see His glory
It's such a mystery
Why a King would leave His throne
To save humanity
They could not have known
When they mocked Him in disgrace
They could not have known
When they spit upon His face
The Rose of Sharon wore a crown of thorns that day
The carpenter had a nail right through His hand
The Master of the earth became a servant of no worth
And paid a King's ransom for my soul
He paid a King's ransom for my soul
Creator of the earth
Name above all names
Some just stood in unbelief
When listening to His claims
They could not have known
When they hit Him with their fists
They could not have known
When they nailed His feet and wrists
The ransom that He paid
Was the sacrifice He made
The life of a King in place of me
The shame that He bore
For the rich and for the poor
I wonder how it makes You feel when the prodigal won't come home
I wonder how it makes You feel when he'd rather be on his own
I wonder what it's like for You when a lamb has gone astray
I wonder what it's like for You when Your children disobey
It must be like another thorn stuck in your brow
It must be like another close friend's broken vow
It must be like another nail right through You wrist
It must be just like, just like Judas' kiss
I wonder how it makes You feel when no one seeks Your face
I wonder how it makes You feel when they give up in the race
I wonder what it's like for You when they willingly disobey
I wonder what it's like for You when they willingly walk away
It must be like another thorn stuck in Your brow
It must be like another close friend's broken vow
It must be like another nail right through Your wrist
In the heat of early morning on a hill
They call The Skull
The roaring of the angry mob
Had settled to a lull
All eyes were cast upon the man
Whose hands and feet were bound
They saw Him cry in anguish
When they heard the hammer pound
They saw the bloody woven thorns with
Which His head was crowned
They watched the bloody cross of wood
Be dropped into the ground
The soldiers gambled for His clothes
They watched them win and lose
They saw the sign above His head
That said "King of the Jews
It is finished
And the sky grew black as the night
It is finished
And the people scattered in fright
The work had been done
Redemption had been won
The war was over without a fight
It is finished
They searched His face for anger
For vengeance in his stare
Instead of eyes that burned with hate
A look of love was there
He prayed for their forgiveness
And bowed His battered head
And no one knew the meaning
Of the final words He said
It is finished
And the sky grew black as the night
It is finished
And the people scattered in fright
The work had been done
Redemption had been won
The war was over without a fight
It is finished
The provision has been made
The foundation has been laid
He paid the ransom due
And tore the temple veil in two
And opened up the way
For me and you
It is finished
It is finished
And the sky grew black as the night
It is finished
And the people scattered in fright
The work had been done
Redemption had been won
The war was over without a fight
John 15:13
Words and Music by Bob Hartman
I wear my seatbelt in the car I buckle up for safety
I run for cover from the storm
I wear a band aid on my knee I look both ways when crossing and I flee
Any danger I can see
And if I try each day to save my life in every way I can
How could I understand the way
You died for me
'Cause I don't know if I could even if I think I would
If I had to die for someone
If I had to die for someone else
How could I ever give my life to set the guilty free
When I cannot imagine
If I had to die for someone else like me
Someone else like me
I keep away from falling rocks and I don't play with matches
I lock the door I don't know why
It seems to me I'm much too old to wear a scarf out in the cold but
I want to live until I die
I guess I love my life a little more than I should love it
And if I had to I don't know if I could
Lay it down
And I am glad that You are not at all like me
'Cause You laid down Your life and did it willingly
It still amazes me to know
It's me that You were thinking of
I will sing praise to God my King
I will sing praise
I will sing praise with my whole being
I will sing praise
I will sing praise to God my King
I will sing praise
(I will sing praise)
I will sing praise with my whole being
I will sing praise
My meditation of Him
Shall be sweet because I love Him
I will give my heart in celebration
And lift my voice on high
And make a joyful noise
I will sing praise to God my King
I will sing praise
I will sing praise with my whole being
I will sing praise
(I will sing praise)
I will sing praise to God my King
I will sing praise
(I will sing)
I will sing praise with my whole being
I will sing praise
My meditation of Him
Shall be sweet because I love Him
I will give my heart in celebration
And lift my voice on high
And make a joyful noise
I will sing praise to God my King
I will sing praise

I will sing praise with my whole being
I will sing praise

I will sing praise to God my King

Chorus:
I waited
For the Lord on high
I waited
And He heard my cry
He pulled me out of my despair
He taught me how to walk
From fear into security
From quicksand into the Rock
CHORUS
I sing to let the people know
That I have been restored
And they will kneel and understand
To return and trust in the Lord
CHORUS
Bridge:
There's a new song
In my heart to sing
A New Song
Praises for my King
CHORUS
Everybody has to say their goodbyes
While they wipe away the tears from their eyes
Everybody bids a fonder farewell
When they know there won't be any sequel
Everybody says a Sayonara
When they know they won't be back tomorrow
Everybody hopes to have reunions
Back together with the ones they knew once
There's a salutation that's reserved for heaven's own
Hello again, we're back together
Hello again, we're here forever
Hello again, rejoined in heaven
Hello again
Everybody's gonna be there waiting
They just want to see you graduating
Gonna see the ones who've gone before us
They'll be cheering in a mighty chorus
Everybody will be glad to see ya
Even if it wasn't their idea
Every argument will be forgotten
We remember them for now but not then
When we see each other there'll be just one thing to say
Hello again, we're back together
Hello again, we're here forever
Hello again, rejoined in heaven
Hello again
Say goodbye to the loneliness forever
Say hello to the garden once again
Say goodbye to this world of stormy weather
Say hello to the one who calls you friend
I can't wait until we're reunited and we say
Hello again, we're back together
Hello again, we're here forever
Hello again, rejoined in heaven
It's just the same thing every day
It's only bad news coming my way
Another war, there's a film at eleven
Another crime from the heart of man
I can sit here with my lock on the door
Change the channel as I try to ignore
Or get ready with shoes on my feet
And start dancing to another beat
Good news- you can read all about it
Good news- speak the word, never doubt it
Good news- cause we can't live without it
I got good news on a long-standing offer
Life you can never lose
Some people can't see the light of day
They need somebody to show them the way
They climb the walls in fear of the future
But God alone has the only cure
The world is spinning like it's out of control
There's only one thing that can save the soul
I'm feeling today is the day
So listen up, I've got something to say
All this bad news is getting me down
Got my head spinning around
Don't have to take it, you know you can choose
So listen up...I've got some good news
The world needs to hear the good news
Of the love of God's Son
Every life can be changed
So many voices telling me which way to go
So many choices come from those who think they know
There's a way that seems right to a man, but it only brings him death
I wanna go the way that leads to life till I draw my dying breath
Don't wanna be a manpleaser
I wanna be a Godpleaser
I just wanna have the wisdom to discern the two apart
Don't wanna be a manpleaer
I wanna be a Godpleaser
I just wanna do the things that please the Father's heart
Some make a sacrifice and never let it show
Some make a point of letting everybody know
Some will live their lives as unto men, and they have their reward
I just wanna do everything I do with all my heart unto the Lord
I just want my life to glorify His Son
To make my Father proud that I'm His child before I'm done
No need to pat me on the back or stop to shake my hand
I just want to hear my Father say, "well done", "well done"
He's got a straight head
in a world of brain dead
He's got a clean nose
even when the wind blows
He's got a backbone even when he's all alone
Ain't taken no chances following the masses
He's got his mind set
On high with his affections
He's got the jones
He makes no bones
Chorus:
It's a God fixation
A singleness of heart, an undistracted mind
It's a God fixation
Addiction of a different kind
He's got 20/20 vision making a decision
He's so unaffected by what he has rejected
Rooted and grounded -
he's standin' up to be counted
And he's already proved
that he will not be moved
He will not bend to
The pressures and persuasions
He knows the lies
He won't compromise
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Fascinations
In the heavenlies
Imaginations
In captivity
(Chorus)

Hold on to life for all you're worth
You know He died for all you're worth
He loves you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth
By this time you know the story
There's nothing there you haven't heard
You can cross the line of knowing
And your heart believing His Word
Do you think He brought you this far
Just to leave you wondering where and who you are
Just think back to where it began
Jesus called you name and then you just took His hand
Repeat Chorus
Even gold still needs refining
Burning off impurities
Even diamonds grow in value
When they're cut so carefully
There's no life beyond His repair
You will find Him waiting just beyond a prayer
He invested all that He had
Don't you think it hurts Him inside to see you sad
Repeat Chorus
He has His eye on you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth
For all you're worth
Hold on to life for all you're worth
You know He died for all you're worth
He loves you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth
By this time you know the story
There's nothing there you haven't heard
You can cross the line of knowing
And your heart believing His Word
Do you think He brought you this far
Just to leave you wondering where and who you are
Just think back to where it began
Jesus called your name and then you just took His Hand
Hold on to life for all you're worth
You know He died for all you're worth
He loves you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth
Even gold still needs refining
Burning off impurities
Even diamonds grow in value
When they're cut so carefully
There's no life beyond His repair
You will find Him waiting just beyond a prayer
He invested all that He had
Don't you think it hurts Him inside to see you sad
Hold on to life for all you're worth
You know He died for all you're worth
He loves you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth
He has His eye on you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life or all
For all you're worth
Psalm 95:7-8, Hebrews 3:13
Words and Music by Bob Hartman
[Chorus]
Don't let your heart be hardened - don't let your love grow cold
May it always stay so childlike - may it never grow too old
Don't let your heart be hardened - may you always know the cure
Keep it broken before Jesus; keep it thankful, meek, and pure
May it always feel compassion - may it beat as one with God's
May it never be contrary - may it never be at odds
May it always be forgiving - may it never know conceit
May it always be encouraged - may it never know defeat
May your heart be always open - never satisfied with right
May your filled with courage and be strengthened with all might
Let His love rain down upon you
Breaking up your fallow ground
Let it loosen all the binding
Performed by- Petra
I believe in God the Father - maker of heaven and earth
And in Jesus Christ His only Son
I believe in the virgin birth
I believe in the Man of Sorrows bruised for iniquities
I believe in the Lamb who was crucified and hung between two thieves
I believe in the resurrection on the third and glorious day
And I believe in the empty tomb and the stone that the angel rolled away
He descended and set the captives free
And now He sits at God's right hand and prepares a place for me
CHORUS:
This is my creed - the witness I have heard
The faith that has endured
This truth is assured
Through the darkest ages past
Though persecuted, it will last
And I will hold steadfast to this creed
I believe He sent His Spirit to comfort and to reveal
To lead us into the truth and light, to baptize and to seal
I believe that He will come back the way He went away
And receive us all unto Himself, but no man knows the day
(Chorus)
I believe He is the Judge of all men, small and great
The resurrected souls of men receive from Him their fate
Some to death and some to life, some to their reward
Some to sing eternal praise forever to our Lord
There is a light burning in the darkness
A book of hope, a morning light
Breaking over the mountains where the eagle flies
It gives us wings to touch the sky, it is the wisdom of the wise
Counsel of the Holy, the written Word of God
Wisdom cries for all to read
Counsel of the Holy, the greatest book of all
Is the path of victory, is the path of victory
A book of wonder, a book of life
A book of promise, faithful and true
A book of miracles for all who will believe
A book of wisdom to all who will receive
The counsel of the Holy, the written Word of God
Wisdom cries for all to read
Counsel of the Holy, the greatest book of all
Is the path of victory, is the path of victory
More precious than rubies
More precious than gold
Mighty is the wisdom of the Lord
Counsel of the Holy, the written Word of God
Wisdom cries for all to read
Counsel of the Holy, the greatest book of all
Is the path of victory
Wisdom cries for all to read, wisdom cries for all to read
You might see me stumble, you might see me fall
You might see me cornered with my back against the wall
I may be incognito, maybe out to lunch
Maybe caught red-handed or maybe just a hunch
But I'm clean, clean, clean, clean, clean before my Lord
Clean, clean, clean, clean, clean before my Lord
Like a spotless lamb, I'm blameless in His sight
With no trace of wrong, left to right
I'm clean, clean, clean
Kneeling in the closet, begging daily bread
There may be a skeleton hanging overhead
Where are my accusers, nowhere to be found
They all dropped their stones when the master came around
'Cause I'm clean, clean, clean, clean, clean before my Lord
Clean, clean, clean, clean, clean before my Lord
Like a spotless lamb, I'm blameless in His sight
With no trace of wrong left to right
I'm clean, clean, clean
I've missed the mark I can't deny it
I don't condone or justify it
But I've done nothing that His blood can't wash away
When I take it to the cross and start to pray
Hey, I'm talking to you
Hey, He's gonna see me through
Hey, I'm talking to you
I'm clean, clean, clean, clean, clean before my Lord
Clean, clean, clean, clean, clean before my Lord
Like a spotless lamb, I'm blameless in His sight
With no trace of wrong left to right
You want the best of both worlds
But you're not getting either
You seem content to ride the fence
When you know which side is greener
Some run hot and some run cold
Some run from their maker
Some run the risk of losing all
With lukewarm friends and fakers
Chameleon- you blend with your surroundings
Chameleon- no one knows where you come from
Chameleon- you change with every situation
Compromising dedication
You compromise each word you say so inoffensively
You only want to hide behind your anonymity
You struggle for acceptance and it takes you to extreme
The smile you hide your face behind is not all that it seems
Come out, come out
Come out from among them
Come out, come out
Come out and be free
There is no gray, no neutral ground
There's only black and white
Nothing in between the two
To turn a wrong into right
There is no time for your charade
You've got to make your stand
When salt has lost its savor
Don't know where you're going
But you think you know the way
20/20 vision but you can't see the light of day
Road is wide or narrow
But you can't tell which is which
Blind will follow blind
And you'll both end up in the ditch
Can't you see you can't see?
Don't you know you don't know?
Blinded eyes can't see the light
When it's glowing in the night in front of you
Blinded eyes can't see the truth
When it's written on the wall right in plain view
Blinded eyes can't see the Son
Or the work that He has done out of love for you
Blinded eyes
Groping in the darkness
Searching for the missing switch
Come up empty handed
Try to scratch the endless itch
There is only one light that can penetrate your mind
Just one look at Jesus
Your eyes could leave their scales behind
Can't you see you could see?
Performed by- Petra
We're content to pitch our tent
When the glory's evident
Seldom do we know the glory came and went
Moving can seem dangerous
In this stranger's pilgrimage
Knowing that you can't stand still, you cross the bridge
(Chorus)
There's a higher place to go, beyond belief, beyond belief
Where we reach the next plateau, beyond belief, beyond belief
And from faith to faith we grow
Towards the center of the flow
Where He beckons us to go, beyond belief, beyond belief
Leap of faith without a net
Makes us want to hedge our bet
Waters never part until our feet get wet
There's a deeper place to go
Where the road seems hard to hoe
He who has begun this work won't let it go
And it takes so long to see the change
But we look around and it seems so strange
We have come so far but the journey's long
Romans 14:10, I Corinthians 3:12-15
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
When our labor all retire
there will be a trial by fire
Will your treasure pass the test
Or will it burn up with the rest
You may build upon a sure foundation
With your building in delapidation
When it all comes down to rubble
Will it be wood hay and stubble
Or precious stones, gold and silver--
Are you really sure
And we all will stand at the Bema Seat
All will be revealed--it will be complete
Will there be reward in the fiery heat
When we see our lives at the Bema Seat
Every talent will be surely counted
Every word will have to be accounted
Not a story will be left untold
We will stand and watch the truth unfold
Every score--will be evened--nothing to defend
Every building will be shaken
Every motive will be tried
He'll give reward to the faithful
Romans 8:37, Mark 10:31, Matthew 10:39
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
Caught in the undertow being swept downstream
Going against the flow seems like such a dream
Trying to hold your ground when you start to slide
Pressure to compromise comes from every side
Wise up Rise up
You can be more than a conqueror, you will never face defeat
You can dare to win by losing all, you can face the heat - dare to
Beat the System
On the assembly line trying to break the mold
Time to throw the wrench that will stop it cold
Going against the odds being the underdog
Dare to wield the sword that will slice the fog
You can go for it all
You can go for broke
You can turn the tide around
You can aim for the top
And take the lion's share
Words & Music by Gary Sadler & Jamie Harvill

Revelations 19:11-21
Words and Music by Bob Hartman
It's an age old score that's got to be settled
It's an age old debt that's got to be paid
When the King breaks through in all of His glory
To claim His throne and the world that He made
The nations wait with their armies gathered
With Jerusalem firmly under their thumbs
There will be no peace in Armegeddon valley
Till the trumpet sounds and the cavalry comes
When He arrives He will conquer them all
Take back the ground given after the fall
[Chorus]
All the King's horses and all the King's men
Gonna ride down from heaven from where they've been
All the King's horses and all the King's men
Gonna put this world back together again
Gonna put this world back together
On a great white horse the King will come riding
He's the One they call Faithful and True
With His eyes of fire and blood dipped clothing
He had a name nobody else knew
And by his side rode the armies of heaven
Dressed in linen clean and white as the snow
Riding down to earth with a vengeance so holy
For a one-day battle that will trample their foe
And when the dust and the smoke disappears
The King will reign for a thousand years
When the lion lays down with the lamb
There'll be peace in the land of Abraham
They will beat their swords into plows
Do you ever think about the ways you're getting older?
You sit around and realize your heart is colder
There'll come a time you'll think your youth is almost over
Where did it go, you'll never know so you'll just wonder
Did you ever want to turn the hands of time back to your childhood?
Back to the time you had it made, you had it so good
What would it take to see mistakes before they happen?
What would you do with all the choices that you made then?
It's just a matter of time
It'll all be over
It's just a matter of time
Better think about it
It's just a matter of time
You know you're gettin' older
It's just a matter of time
You sit around, you're all alone, the party's over
You think about it all again, your thoughts are sober
You waste away another day and then it happens
You're old and gray, you dream away about your past sins
It's just a matter of time
It'll all be over
It's just a matter of time
Better think about it
It's just a matter of time
You know you're gettin' older
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
And it makes you wonder
It's just a matter of time
How did it go so fast?
It's just a matter of time
You know you're gettin' older
It's just a matter of time
God has a plan worth listening to
Not built on sand that is sifting through
It's not too late for redeeming the time
It's just a matter of time
It'll all be over
It's just a matter of time
Better think about it
It's just a matter of time
You know you're gettin' older
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
And it makes you wonder
It's just a matter of time
How did it go so fast?
It's just a matter of time
You're gettin' older
It's just a matter of time
A matter of time
