"Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus"

"Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus"


[Chorus:]
Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in his wonderful face
And the things of the earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of his glory and grace

O soul are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There's a light for a look at the Savior
And life more abundant and free

[Chorus]

His word shall not fail you, He promised
Believe Him, and all will be well
Then go to a world that is dying
His perfect Salvation to tell

[Chorus]

O soul are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There's light for a look at the Savior
And life more abundant and free

"Unafraid"

"Unafraid"



Woke up this morning
With you in our bed
Going over and over
Everything you said
Who talk you how to speak
The words that you say
I've always wanted to
Be talked to that way
Love has made
Has made you unafraid

Watching my children
Finding their way
Thru struggles and triumphs
And heartbreak
I hope the roads they take
Are making them strong
I'll still be on my knees
Long after they're gone
Love has made
Love has made
Love has made
Has made me unafraid

My lovely mother
Is getting on in years
And the way her body's aging
Brings her girls to tears
The way she trembles with
Each effort she makes
She just says Heaven's
Getting closer each day
Love has made
Love has made
Love has made
Has made her unafraid

Love could make
Love can make
Love will make
Make you unafraid...

"Wait For The Healing"

"Wait For The Healing"


One had vision
One came bringing its doom
One saw napalm
One heard the man in the moon
We were children of promise
We were heirs to their dreams

[Chorus:]
Tell me, why then is the hand slow
And the dog bites, well, I don't know
But the sky will fall
And heads will roll
And it's all that we can do
To wait for the healing

Hungry hearted reason coming of age
Running headlong into the latest rage
Always reaching within us
Claiming the answers are there

[Chorus]

For to carry on
For to stand when all is said and done
In the shadow of the rising sun
Longing, waiting for the healing

We are children of promise
We are heirs to the dream

[Chorus]

For to carry on
For to stand when all is said and done
In the shadow of the rising sun
Longing, waiting for the healing

"Walking Away With You"

"Walking Away With You"


He calls me to the darkness
He tries to put some hardness in my heart pulling us apart
He tells me that he needs me
But lies are all he feeds into my life day and night

[Chorus 1:]
When I'm losing my sense of direction
And I'm needing some strength and protection
Walking away with You
I go walking away with You
And when I think I can't stand any longer
And I'm crying for someone that's stronger
Walking away with You
I go walking away with You
There's nothing he can do
His threat to me is through
When I go walking away with You

Lonely overtakes me
Everyone forsakes me, friends are gone, pain is on

Walls around my feelings
Emptiness concealing all my views
All but You

[Chorus 2:]
When I'm needing someone to console me
Nearly dying for someone to hold me
I'm walking away with You
I go walking away with You
And when I'm faced with a tricky temptation
I abandon the whole situation
Walking away with You
I go walking away with You
Oh what a fail safe plan
Just staying hand in hand
I'll keep on walking away with You

I don't notice if no one's around me
When I see that Your loving has found me taken by surprise
Like sunlight in a clouded sky
Then I'm dancing as light as a feather
Au revoir to the stormy weather
Walking from the night
To a never ending light

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]

"Walking In The Light"

"Walking In The Light"



The sun woke me up real early,
It's a beautiful morn
'Cause I'm goin' down to the river
To be reborn
Now me and Jesus did some heavy
Talkin' last night
So I'm going down to be dipped and
Come up walkin' in the light

So I'm going down to the river
Real early this morn
Jesus said, through Him we can
Be reborn
And oh the joy that's come
Inside me
Laughter fills my night and
Fills my day
With a song of love to guide me
And the happy words you send my way

Life with you has made me feel
The miracle of makin' melodies
Just a simple wonder when you're walkin' in the light

"Welcome To Our World"

"Welcome To Our World"



Tears are falling
Hearts are breaking
How we need to hear from God
You've been promised
We've been waiting
Welcome, Holy Child
Welcome, Holy Child

Hope that You don't
Mind our manger
How I wish we would have known
But long awaited
Holy Stranger
Make Yourself at home
Please make Yourself at home

Bring Your peace
Into our violence
Bid our hungry souls be filled
Word now breaking Heaven's silence
Welcome to our world
Welcome to our world

Fragile finger
Sent to heal us
Tender brow prepared for thorn
Tiny heart
Whose blood will save us
Unto us is born
Unto us is born

So wrap our injured
Flesh around you
Breathe our air and walk our sod
Rob our sin
And make us holy
Perfect Son of God
Welcome to our world

"What A Difference You've Made"

"What A Difference You've Made"


What a difference You've made in my life
What a difference You've made in my life
You're my sunshine day and night
Oh what a difference You've made in my life

What a change You have made in my heart
What a change You have made in my heart
You replaced all the broken parts
Oh what a change You have made in my heart

Love to me was just a word in a song
That had been way over used
But you gave love a meaning
So I've joined in the singing
That's why I want to spread the news

[Chorus:]
What a difference You've made in my life
What a difference You've made in my life
You're my sunshine day and night
Oh what a difference You've made

[Chorus]

"What A Friend We Have In Jesus / Old Rugged Cross / How Great Thou Art"

"What A Friend We Have In Jesus / Old Rugged Cross / How Great Thou Art"



What a Friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bare!
What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer!
And I'll cherish the old rugged cross
Til' my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou Art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, how great Thou Art!

"What About The Love"

"What About The Love"


I went to see my sister
She was staying with a friend
Who had turned into a preacher
To save the world from sin
He said "First deny your body,
Then learn to submit
Pray to be made worthy,
And tithe your ten percent"
I said "Is this all there is,
Just the letter of the law?"
Something's wrong.

I went to see my brother
On the 32nd floor
Of a building down on Wall Street
You could hear the future's roar
He said "Here we make decisions,
And we trade commodities;
If you tell me where there's famine,
I can make you guarantees"
I said "Is this all there is,
Power to be strong?"
Something's wrong.

[Chorus:]
Something's wrong in heaven tonight
You can almost hear them cry
Angels to the left and the right
Saying "What about the love
What about the love
What about the love?"

I went to see my neighbor
He'd been taken to a home
For the weak and the discarded
Who have no place to go
He said "Here I lack for nothing
I am fed and I am clothed,
But at times I miss the freedom
I used to know"
I said "Is this all there is
When your usefulness is gone?"
Something's wrong.

[Chorus]

I looked into the mirror
Proud as I could be
And I saw my pointing finger
Pointing back at me
Saying "Who named you accuser
Who gave you the scales"
I hung my head in sorrow
I could almost feel the nails
I said "This is how it is
To be crucified and judged
Without love."

[Chorus 2x]

"What Is The Chance Of That"

"What Is The Chance Of That"



Tonight I've been counting railroad cars
Clinking and grinding into the dark
One of them passed with an open door
And I pictured myself jumping on board

What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?

I'll always had this thing about trains
A lonesome sound like a man in pain
Going somewhere they don't lose track
Some folks leave and they don't look back

What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?

I have believed since I was a little bitty girl
That there were rules of cause and effect
And they slowly shaped my world
But pain and hard times they come and they go
Like some blindfolded angel somewhere saying
Eeny meeny miny moe

What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?

Why do I feel restless inside?
Maybe I'm part of a wandering tribe
I want to check my family tree
I think there's a little nomad in me

What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?

Life is a thing you drink in deep
The journey is hard and the journey's sweet
Maybe I'll search and maybe I'll find
Things I wanted were already mine

What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?

I have believed since I was a little bitty girl
That there were rules of cause and effect
And they slowly shaped my world
But pain and hard times they come and they go
Like some test of faith that purifies my
Weak belief into something gold

What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?

What is the chance of that?
What is the chance?
What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?

What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?

Tonight I've been counting railroad cars
Clinking and grinding into the dark
One of them passed with an open door
And I pictured myself jumping on board

What is the chance of that?
What is the chance of that?
