"Oh How I Love Jesus"

"Oh How I Love Jesus"


There is a name I love to hear
I love to sing its worth
It sounds like music in my ear
The sweetest name on Earth

O how I love Jesus
O how I love Jesus
O how I love Jesus
Because He first loved me

It tells me of a Savior's love
Who died to set me free
It tells me of His precious blood
The sinner's perfect plea

It tells of one whose loving heart
Can fell my deepest woe
Who in each sorrow hears a part
That none can bear below

"Oh, What A Time To Be Me"

"Oh, What A Time To Be Me"


Oh, what a time to be me

I'm sorry you're feeling so lonely
I know how hard it can be
You lost your one and your only
You told her you had to be free
You say that you think she's found somebody new
Who gives her the love that she needs
Now it's safe to say it's a bad day for you
But oh what a time to be me

You say that you just had to call her
To tell her you knew you were wrong
You're thinking you mis-dialed her number
Just because I answered the phone
I hate to be the one to have to break it to you
But you got it accurately
Now it's safe to say it's a bad day for you
But oh what a time to be me

Remember those kisses you used to receive
They sure feel good on my cheek
And now that you mentioned it, I can't believe
That anyone could ever leave a love so sweet

Now I truly hope that we can still be friends
It's hard to find a buddy like you
And you're more than welcome
But right now I get something to do
And oh by the way here's a message for you
Would you mind returning her key
There's somebody else that she's giving it to
And oh, what a time to be me

Remember those kisses you used to receive
They sure feel good on my cheek
And now that you mentioned it, I can't believe
That anyone could ever leave a love so sweet

Now I truly hope that we can still be friends
It's hard to find a buddy like you
And you're more than welcome
But right now I get something to do
And oh by the way here's a message for you
Would you mind returning her key
There's somebody else that she's giving it to
And oh, what a time to be me

Now it's safe to say it's a bad day for you
But oh,what a time to be me

"Old 8x10"

"Old 8x10"


Well know it ain't much
But it's all that I have since she's gone

One black and white mem'ry
Of the only love I've ever known
One moment in time
When we were together
A page from the past
To haunt me forever
A constant reminder that hearts heal much slower than bones

[Chorus:]
Now my whole world's in one 8x10
With 4 metal walls holding it in
Through one plate glass window
'neath a blanket of dust
Stands an 8x10 picture of us

I wish I'd have told her what I felt inside
Back when her sweet love was growing like wine
I wish she'd come back and love me again
The way that she loved me in that old 8x10

Now the silence I deaf'ning
As the date turns to dark
Her presence gets stronger with each beat of my heart

I pretned that she's here
And we've made a new start
And for a moment
She's back in my arms

[Chorus]

There's an 8x10 picture of us

"On The Other Hand"

"On The Other Hand"


Just give me all your lovin'

A vision of your face always pops into my mind, girl
I would do anything to receive love from you
So show me the way that this could happen soon

"Once You've Heard The Truth"

"Once You've Heard The Truth"


It was just like every other morning
The sun was shining
It was storming
They had words over breakfast
And he said something reckless
Just a solitary slip of the tonge
Another woman's name and it was done

Once you've heard the truth
Stared it in the face
Once you've got the proof
There ain't no hiding place
It's like thunder crashing down
Or a freight train running through you
No, you won't forget the sound
Once you've heard the truth

She threw her wedding ring
And it rolled across the floor
She didn't say a thing
But he heard that slamming door

Once you've heard the truth
Stared it in the face
Once you've got the proof
There ain't no hiding place
It's like thunder crashing down
Or a freight train running through you
Oh, you won't forget the sound
Once you've heard the truth

No, you won't forget the sound
Once you've heard the truth

It was just like every other morning
The sun was shining
It was storming

"One Word Song"

"One Word Song"


When I'm feelin' lonely
And I'm far away from home
I just sing out your name
Like a one word song.

In a moment of weakness
When I need to be strong
I just sing out your name
Like a one word song.

And the thought of you
Brings a soulful melody
And passion and trust
And a healing harmony.

And when I lose my way
I get back where I belong
When I sing out your name
Like a one word song.

[Instrumental]

And the thought of you
Brings a soulful melody
And passion and trust
And a healing harmony.

And when I lose my way
I get back where I belong
When I sing out your name
Like a one word song.

Yeah, I sing out your name
Like a one word song...

"Only Daddy That'll Walk The Line"
(originally by Waylon Jennings)

"Only Daddy That'll Walk The Line"
(originally by Waylon Jennings)



Everybody knows you've been stepping on my toes
And I'm getting pretty tired of it
You keep a stepping out of line
You're messing with my mind if you had any sense you'd quit

[Chorus:]
'Cause ever since you were a little bitty teeny girl
You said I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinking then you'll find
You got the only daddy that'll walk the line

I keep-a working every day all you want to is play
I'm tired of staying out all night
I'm coming unglued from your funny little moods
Now Honey baby that ain't right

[Chorus]

You keep-a packing up my clothes nearly everybody knows
That you're still just a putting me on
But when I start a walking gonna hear you start a squawking
And begging me to come back home

[Chorus]

You got the only daddy that'll walk the line

"Only Worse"

"Only Worse"


I just dropped in, 'cause I could use a friend
And a little bit of consolation
I'm hangin' by a thread from the southern end of my rope
If you really wanna know
I'll do my best to explain my situation
Maybe I can find the words
If the tears don't get me first.

It's kinda like fallin' from the sky
When you're up a mile high
And your parachute won't open
Kinda like clingin' to the bottom of the bottom
When the bottom drops out
The only way I know to say how bad her leavin' hurts
It's kinda like a heartache, only worse
Only worse.

It wasn't my first brush with love
But this one was the deepest
Yeah, I've been blue, but this time it's closer to black
Swore, I'd never get hurt again
But here I am in pieces
When this one broke my heart that was just the start.

It's kinda like fallin' from the sky
When you're up a mile high
And your parachute won't open
Kinda like clingin' to the bottom of the bottom
When the bottom drops out
The only way I know to say how bad her leavin' hurts
It's kinda like a heartache, only worse
Only worse.

It's kinda like being cut open
Kinda like being burned at the stake
Kinda like drownin' in the ocean
Knowin' there's no help on the way.

It's kinda like fallin' from the sky
When you're up a mile high
And your parachute won't open
Kinda like clingin' to the bottom of the bottom
When the bottom drops out
The only way I know to say how bad her leavin' hurts
It's kinda like a heartache, only worse
Only worse...

"Oscar The Angel"

"Oscar The Angel"


Oscar was an angel and he used to walk the streets
Shoutin' out some prophecy to everyone he'd meet
He was a local fixture; like a cop out on a beat
Folks said he'd been shell-shocked long ago
And more than that, no one seemed to know

Oscar was a walker, at least four miles twice a day
The entire length of main street he'd be shoutin' all the way
And I had no idea, where he'd heard the things he'd say
But he was not your normal voice of doom
It was a happy song, sung slightly out of tune

[Chorus:]
And he'd say, "everyone will die and go to heaven
and we will all be angels some day
What you are in this world don't count for nothin'
'Cause we are only children, we're just lost along the way
But we will all be angels some day"

Well I worked at the Rialto; I sold tickets at the door
And Oscar he'd come by most ev'ryday 'bout half past four
And he'd pay to see some movie that he'd seen ten times before
But mostly we'd just let him in for free
And he'd watch five minutes, then he'd come and talk to me

[Repeat Chorus]

Well it's going on ten years now since I left my home town
And I went home last summer; for a week I hung around
I looked out for Oscar; he was nowhere to be found
Someone said they finally had to commit him
And he died, before they had time to forget him

Now I'm not about to argue, Oscar's train had jumped the tracks
But I'll bet my last dollar on a plain and simple fact
Oscar never said a word about me behind my back
And the way the I was raised to understand
Well, that bone, makes him the better man

[Repeat Chorus]

Ya, we will all be angels someday
