Archangel    Walk To Emmaus    The Miracle

Draw Near   Get Tough    Seek the Cross

Forgiven    2nd Revelation    Life and the Blues

In the Long Run

 

ARCHANGEL

In the beginning God created all things

and the mighty angel Lucifer rebelled against Him

along with one third of the other angels.

So God administered Michael the Archangel

to cast them out of Heaven.

It is written that at the end of the age

God will send the Archangel down with a chain

and a great struggle will occur

and the Angel will lay hold of Satan

and bind him with the chain

and cast him into a bottomless pit.

The Archangel Michael, victorious

in all his splendor and might.

Praise be to God the Father and all His glory!

What – Is going to save you from hell?

No way – to stand against the archangel

Hand – hand of God is near

Say He’s – nothing trembling in fear

Archangel

Michael – the great prince will arise

People – the good lives the rest dies

Lost – lost the war it's true

Satan- the Lord rebukes you

Archangel

Mt 23:33, Jas 2:19, Da 12:1-2, Pr 8:34-36, Mt 19:17, Jude 9, Rev 20:10

RETURN

WALK TO EMMAUS

Give up the ways of the world was the prophecy

Leaving a life of sin was a lot for me

God gave His Son so my soul may live

Promised true love and always forgive

I need some shelter; I feel the grace of the Lord

I know salvation, I see the way the way

We know the way, come with us

Walk to Emmaus

Nailing your sins to the cross will set you free

Burning the baggage of guilt you never need

Confess your wrong will turn those coals to ice

Praying for strength as you start your walk with Christ

I need some shelter; I feel the grace of the Lord

I know salvation, I see the way the way

We know the way, come with us

Walk to Emmaus

Jn 3:16, Lk 24:13-35, Col 2:13-15

THE MIRACLE

Well you got to have proof; you want to see it right now

It only works by faith, it makes the lost the found

He was born to die, that you might live

Jesus the Messiah, gave all that He could give

 

Do you believe in a miracle?

You want to see the miracle

Enter the new millennium

The Bible's words come to pass!

The scriptures message foretold

Escape the devil's foothold

Do you believe in a miracle?

You want to see the miracle

Water from the rock, snake from the rod

Fire from the bush, life from the dead

Daniel from the lion, David from Goliath

Jonah from the whale, life from the dead

Brothers from the furnace, health from the ill

Strength from the weak, life from the dead

Wine from the water, site from the blind

Jesus from the grave, life from the dead, all right!

Do you believe in a miracle?

You want to see the miracle

Enter the new millennium

The Bible's words come to pass!

The scriptures message foretold

Escape the devil's foothold

Do you believe in a miracle?

You want to see the miracle

I believe in the miracle!

RETURN

DRAW NEAR

Bring me closer Jesus, hold me tight

If I turn away from you, make it right

Teach me your ways oh Lord

That I may walk in your truth

And give to me an undivided heart

That I might fear your Holy name

If I draw near will you be here?

 

Come, won't you come?

Holy one light of the world

Come, won't you come?

Risen one I need you here

I’ve come to draw near

If I draw near will you be here?

I’ve come to draw near

So teach me your ways oh Lord

That I may walk in your truth

And give to me an undivided heart

That I might fear your Holy name

If I draw near will you be here

I’ve come to draw near!

RETURN

GET TOUGH

Stand firm with the belt of truth buckled around your waist

And the breastplate of righteousness in place

Take up the shield of faith and extinguish the flames

With the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit that’s the word of God!

Get tough!

Won't you listen to me gonna get rough

Hard times headed better you get tough

I’ll make it through the roughest time of my life

And it is true, I’ll give it all to Christ

If I never please anyone in this life

May I please you, may I please you Jesus

Put on the full armor of God

You struggle not against flesh and blood

You’re fighting powers and principalities

The sword of life is all you ever need

To get tough, get tough

You better get tough!

Are you able to stand your ground?

Is the devil pulling you down?

You’re fighting rulers and authorities

Of this dark world and evil entities

Get tough, get tough

You better get tough!

I made it through

He picked me up

I paid my dues

And that’s enough if it’s up to me yeah!

You better get tough!

Get tough!

You better get tough man!

Eph 6: 11-17, 2 Cor 5: 7-10, Isa 30:30, Rev 7: 14-17, Rev 20:1

RETURN

SEEK THE CROSS

Look at the world gone wild

Pity the innocent child

Most of the souls will bleed

Just another, starving for morality!

Seek the life, seek the sword, seek the power, seek the Lord

There is peace, there’s no loss, there is hope

Seek the cross

Look at the rich so vain

Watching the poor in pain

Most of the souls will bleed

Just another, starving for morality!

Seek the Lamb, seek the dove, seek the truth, seek the love

There is peace, there’s no loss, there is hope

Seek the cross

Seeds of thorns you sow

Feel the undertow

Most of the souls will bleed

Just another, starving for morality!

There is peace, there’s no loss, there is hope

Seek the cross! Yeah!

Dt 4: 29, 2Ch 7:14, Mt 6: 33, Heb 6: 8, Lk 12:16-21, Mt 13: 24

RETURN

FORGIVEN

There was a time in my life I rebelled

And I gave way to a world of sin

I was wrong and selfish, I fell in conviction

Something changed me from within

Gave my life to Christ, punishment and guilt,

For the way I was living

But now I’m just forgiven

My flesh subjected, rising spirit,

Engulfed in power, deception I bind

Not all old ways have died, transfigured by grace

Angelic truth I find

Gave my life to Christ, punishment and guilt,

For the way I was living

But now I’m just forgiven

Give your life to Christ, eternal, your soul is saved

And now forgiven

Yes now you can be forgiven

Yes I am the few

Chosen by the King

He has brought me life

I will never die!

I am not what meets the eye,  I am not what meets the eye!

Ac 10: 43, Ne 9:17, Ro 3: 23-24

RETURN

THE 2ND REVELATION

Peace, tranquility

Love, like you’ve never seen

Hope, restoration

God, revelation

Can't you see the end is drawing near?

Hand of God raises and Christ is here!

All right now!

Want to be, want to see, want to change my life today!

Want to live, want to give, want to love not hate I pray!

Walk by faith not by sight, need the light to find my way!

Can't you see the end is drawing near?

Hand of God raises and Christ is here!

Oh come on!

Open your heart to the Lord

In this fallen world.

Ps 23: 3, 2Ti 2: 22, Rev 1:1

RETURN

Life and the Blues

I want to tell you a story about life and the blues

You can be a winner; it’s your life to choose

I’ve been sinning for so long I’ve been singing the blues

But I’ve got a friend in Jesus that much is true

Now this friend of mine gave his life for me

I was blind to the truth but now I see

He’s coming back someday, coming down from the clouds

Every tongue will confess, every knee shall bow

That Jesus Christ is Lord

So don’t be singing the blues no more, I tell you there’s hope

Hope like you never seen, the only kind of hope the Lord can bring

I ain’t singing the blues no more

RETURN

IN THE LONG RUN

There’s a feeling I get in the lonely days

When the things I love seem to slip away

But, the truth always lives and the love still remains

And the comfort is there for the things that cause me pain

Yes I know, there is sure security

Yes I know, in the long run

When my life on earth is done

There is a plan to carry on

When my soul is set free to fly

I know I’ll find my way

Yes I know, there is sure security

Yes I know, in the long run

When my life on earth is done

I know I’ll find my way

When my soul is set free to fly

I know I’ll find my way

Yes I know, there is sure security

Yes I know, in the long run the long run

In the long run, oh yeah!

Do you know how I feel?

I’ll find Jesus

Do you know we could meet in the end?

I’ll find peace

Yes I know, I’ll find Jesus

Yes I know, in the long run I’ll find peace

In the long run, oh yeah!

Ps 68:6, Isa 49:13, Ps 112: 8, Nu 6: 24-26, Jn 16: 33

 Lies   The Day is Nigh   You Are Mighty

 

REDEMPTION

All I’ve lost, all I mourn,

All that’s taken, my heart is torn

All the shame, all regret,

All that’s forgiven, I can’t forget

This time, this place,

This trial, I can’t get past it

This fight, this lie,

This failure, I’m dying

 

You’re bound by the lies of the evil one

There’s freedom in the blood of God’s own Son

Just give it all to the one who cares

There’s nothing in this world we all don’t share

Redemption – for sin

Redemption – what’s left?

This life, these days,

These tears, I’m broken

This hope, this chance,

These goals, my lost dreams

One heart, one pride,

One faith, break these chains

One son, one death,

One truth, my victory

Psalms 130:7 – Romans 3:23,24 – Ephesians 1:7 – 1 Peter 5:6,7 - Colossians 1:13,14 - Ephesians 3:12,13

RETURN

BECAUSE OF YOU

I was lost, I was blind

I was alive to the world but dead

I was tainted, deserved to die

But You, You gave Your life instead

It’s all You, because of You I’m alive

It’s all You, because of You I’ve been saved

Because of You I’m alive, forever following You

Yeah!

My eyes were clouded, my tongue was filthy

My mind was writhing in lust for flesh

You saw my defiance, Your heart was broken

Still came and spilled Your blood now I’m blessed

Catch me when I stumble, never let me fall

Gracious Lord in heaven, hear me when I call

You’ve got to pray to your Lord, to your God

You’ve got to lay your life down pick up your cross

Because You died we are saved we’re not lost

Look down inside see the spirit see the ghost

You’ll never turn Your back on me

You’ll never forsake me

Joshua 1:5 – 1 Peter 3:18-22 – Ephesians 2:4,5 – Psalm 37:23,24

SOUL WINNERS & GRAVE DIGGERS

What you been doing with your life brother?

Are you just keeping your blind eye open?

What you been doing with your life sister?

Are you producing fruit of the spirit?

Does your action reflect your faith?

In your weakness Christ gives you strength

Are you faithful despite your pain?

To live is Christ, to die is gain

 

What you been doing for the kingdom brother?

Have you been out soul winning?

What you been doing for the kingdom sister?

Have you been out grave digging?

 

Soul winners and grave diggers

Make up the world we know

Soul winners and grave diggers

Reaping the seeds that you sow

 

Brothers and sisters, we are called to be harvesters of souls.

We need to plant the seeds of salvation.

Yes, we need to be seedy not greedy, living a righteous

and holy life and sharing the gospel with others.

 

We are called to share the good news

Matthew 9:37 – Galatians – 5:22 – James 1:21 – Philippians 1:21 – Romans 10:14,15

NEEDY

Don’t you need to be fed – whether spiritually or internally?

Don’t you need to be wanted – whether physically or emotionally?

Don’t you need?

Don’t you need?

Don’t you need? Don’t you need? Don’t you need?

When you learn the grace of God you’ll be all right

Put all your trust in Him, faith without sight

I am the one you called let your light shine through me

Despite your love for me I am but a man I get needy

 

I don’t need someone to hold my hand everywhere I go

I just need someone to trust

And I don’t need someone to follow me around like a puppy dog

I just need someone to love – oh, wont you love me?

 

Now I don’t need all the money or the fame of a celebrity

I just need a little respect

And I don’t need to show discontent with my apathy

I just need some help from above – oh, wont you help me?

 

I feel needy!

We all are needy!

 

Oh I see a lot of needy people, oh yeah

 

I feel needy!

We all are needy!

We all are needy, were a needy people!(3x)

We all are needy!

We’re a needy people!

RETURN

 

GNASHING OF TEETH

Thrown into the darkness

Weeping, burning, eternally

Those who have ears let them hear

You know the world has perverted the truth

That Jesus died for our sins

Distorting and deceiving the youth

The end will bring lamentations

 

The righteous will shine like the sun

In the kingdom of their Father

Those who are first will be last

Seething, loathing, weeping, burning, gnashing

Hypocrites, worthless servants

 

Gnashing, gnashing, gnashing

Gnashing of teeth

 

 Those who believe and who call

On His name shall be saved

 

Gnashing, gnashing, gnashing

Gnashing of teeth

Cast down, cast off, cast away

Matthew 13:42,43 – Romans 10:12,13 – Mark 10:31

RETURN

 

SECULAR CIRCUS

Ladies and Gentlemen, step right up to the spectacle of… the Secular Circus

Sex and violence on the TV

Selling all your drugs in the street

Feels good then it must be right

You’re lost running from the light

 

Living, evil, world, living (evil)

In this Secular Circus

 

No one tells you what to do

You’re your own person, or a fool

Never caring who hurts along the way

Self-centered living for today

 

We’ve got to change the way we take more than we give

God gave us rules for a better way to live

Since the world was cursed with sin

Since Satan lingers within

 

Living, evil, world, living (evil)

In this Secular Circus

Proverbs 11:19,20 – Jeremiah 50:6,7 – Deuteronomy 27:15,26

RETURN

 

LIES

When you come before the throne

fall on your knees and beg for mercy

It’s too late you’ve sealed your fate

By wasting life and living the lie

 

Lies – make you doubt

 

Now choose your path, avoid God’s wrath

Resist evil and he flees

Call on the name of Christ the Lord

Be lifted past the powers of the air

 

Lies – make you doubt

 

The father of all lies, deceiver of the nations

Wants you to despise the Holy One, the Holy One

Confusion – lies

Deception – lies

Division – lies

Lies

 

You say to trust you

Lies -  make you doubt

 

Now choose your path, avoid God’s wrath

Resist evil and he flees

John 8:42-44 – Proverbs 19:5 – Psalm 34:12,13 – Colossians 3:5,6 – James 4:7

RETURN

 

THE DAY IS NIGH

Is there a way that I can’t see?

Is there a message I can’t read?

Are there words that I can’t hear?

Is life just about misery and fear?

The Lord is coming back someday

Nowhere to run but you can be saved

When the Revelation comes to pass

Look to the sky hear the trumpet blast

It is no lie!

The day is nigh!

Before that day every soul shall hear

Even demons believe and tremble with fear

I hope you and Jesus have it all worked out

Accept Him as your Savior and have no doubt

It is no lie!

The day is nigh!

 

I hope you and Jesus have it all worked out

1 Thessalonians 4:16 – Revelation 22:10,12 – James 2:19 – James 5:8

RETURN

 

YOU ARE MIGHTY (a work derivative)

You are Mighty

You are Holy

You are Awesome in Your Power

 

You have risen

You have conquered

You have beaten the power of death

 

Alleluia, we will rejoice

Alleluia, praise You Jesus

Praise You Jesus

 

You’re so Mighty

You’re so Holy

You’re so awesome in Your glory

You have risen

You have conquered

You had victory over death
