"We're For Love"

"We're For Love"

I'm for you I'm for you I'm for anything that starts with us
You're for me you're for me that makes both of us for love

And if we're for each other we won't be bothered
By how much the world may push and shove
It makes no difference who stands against us
As long as you and I are both for love

I'm woman all over when you're around me honey I can't seem to get enough
Let's stay together like this forever and show the world that we're for love

And if we're for each other...
As you and I are both for love

"Welcome Back Jesus"

"Welcome Back Jesus"

Lord if you should be looking down at little me
I just like to say I'm trying to stay upon the right track
But Lord the way gets hard temptation's come and I sure get tired
But I'm watching for you like you told me to and welcome back

Welcome back Jesus welcome back Jesus
I'm watching for your light to shine like you said it would shine when you come
Welcome back Jesus welcome back Jesus
I hope you will see and recognize me and then take me home

Welcome back Jesus welcome back Jesus
I'm watching for your light to shine like you said it would shine when you come
Welcome back Jesus welcome back Jesus
I hope you will see and recognize me and then take me home

Welcome back Jesus welcome back Jesus

"Wer Kennt Den Weg"
("I Walk The Line" German Version)

"Wer Kennt Den Weg"
("I Walk The Line" German Version)

Am aller Schönsten war es doch zu Haus.
Von dort zog´s mich einst in die Welt hinaus.
Und in der Ferne suchte ich mein Glück.
Wer kennt den Weg,
den Weg zurück!

Sie schenkte mir die Liebe und ihr Herz.
Doch ich bracht´ ihr nur Tränen, Leid und Schmerz.
Und ich verließ sie und damit mein Glück.
Wer kennt den Weg,
den Weg zurück!

Wer kennt den Weg zurück in jene Zeit?
Den Weg zurück in die Vergangenheit?
Den Weg nach Hause und zum ersten Glück?
Wer kennt den Weg,
den Weg zurück?

Am aller Schönsten war es doch zu Haus.
Von dort zog´s mich einst in die Welt hinaus.
Und in der Ferne suchte ich mein Glück.
Wer kennt den Weg,
den Weg zurück!

Wer kennt den Weg zurück in jene Zeit?
Den Weg zurück in die Vergangenheit?
Den Weg nach Hause und zum ersten Glück?
Wer kennt den Weg,
den Weg zurück?

"Were You There When They Crucified My Lord"

"Were You There When They Crucified My Lord"

Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh were you there when they crucified my Lord?
(Ohh, sometimes it causes me to tremble)
Tremble
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?

Were you there when they nailed Him to the cross?
Were you there when they nailed Him to the cross?
(Ohh, sometimes it causes me to tremble)
Tremble
Were you there when they nailed Him to the cross?

Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
(Ohh, sometimes it causes me to tremble)
Tremble
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?

Well, were you there when the stone was rolled away?
Were you there when the stone was rolled away?
(Ohh, sometimes it causes me to tremble)
Tremble
Were you there when the stone was rolled away?

"West Canterbury Subdivision Blues"

"West Canterbury Subdivision Blues"

I built her a castle of perma stone
But I should have reigned more with her
Too often I left my queen alone
And that was no way to leave her

I rode out in quest of song and wine
And that was no way to treat her
I kept her hangin' like grapes on the vine
And that was no way to keep her

Reds Goodguy rode by on his milk white steed
And casually mentioned my misdeeds
He promised her love far greater than mine
Thus pulled out and plucked my grapes from the vine

I built her a castle with patios
But I seldom cooked out upon it
I bought her a TV with stereo
But I never listened much to it

Now I have a castle but the queen's not home
And that is no way to have her
I have the vine but the grapes are gone
And that's no way to run a vineyard

Reds Goodguy rode by on his milk white steed
And casually mentioned my misdeeds
He promised her love far greater than mine
Thus pulled out and plucked my grapes from the vine

"What Child Is This"

"What Child Is This"

What Child is this who, laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?

This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing;
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

Why lies He in such mean estate,
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.

Nails, spear shall pierce Him through,
The cross be borne for me, for you.
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
Come peasant, king to own Him;
The King of kings salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.

Raise, raise a song on high,
The virgin sings her lullaby.
Joy, joy for Christ is born,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

"What Do I Care"

"What Do I Care"

When I'm all through if I haven't been what they think I should be
If the total isn't high enough when they figure me
When I grow old if there's no gray from worry in my hair
What do I care? What do I care?

What do I care just as long as you were mine a little while?
When the road was long and weary you gave me a few good mile
What do I care if I miss a goal because I make a slip?
I'll still be satisfied because I tasted your sweet lips

What do I care if I never have much money?
And sometimes my table looks a little bare
Anything that I may miss is made up for each time we kiss
You love me and I love you, so what do I care?

What do I care just as long as you were mine a little while?
When the road was long and weary you gave me a few good mile
What do I care if I miss a goal because I make a slip?
I'll still be satisfied because I tasted your sweet lips

What do I care if I never have much money?
And sometimes my table looks a little bare
Anything that I may miss is made up for each time we kiss
You love me and I love you, so what do I care?

"What Is Truth?"

"What Is Truth?"

The old man turned off the radio
Said, "Where did all of the old songs go?
Kids sure play funny music these days
They play it in the strangest ways"
Said, "It looks to me like they've all gone wild
It was peaceful back when I was a child"
Well, man, could it be that the girls and boys
Are trying to be heard above your noise?
And the lonely voice of youth cries
"What is truth?"

A little boy of three sittin' on the floor
Looks up and says, "Daddy, what is war?"
"Son, that's when people fight and die"
The little boy of three says "Daddy, why?"
A young man of seventeen in Sunday school
Being taught the golden rule
And by the time another year has gone around
It may be his turn to lay his life down
Can you blame the voice of youth for asking
"What is truth?"

A young man sittin' on the witness stand
The man with the book says "Raise your hand"
"Repeat after me, I solemnly swear"
The man looked down at his long hair
And although the young man solemnly swore
Nobody seems to hear anymore
And it didn't really matter if the truth was there
It was the cut of his clothes and the length of his hair
And the lonely voice of youth cries
"What is truth?"

The young girl dancing to the latest beat
Has found new ways to move her feet
The young man speaking in the city square
Is trying to tell somebody that he cares
Yeah, the ones that you're calling wild
Are going to be the leaders in a little while
This old world's wakin' to a new born day
And I solemnly swear that it'll be their way
You better help the voice of youth find
"What is truth?"
And the lonely voice of youth cries
"What is truth?"

"What On Earth (Will You Do For Heaven's Sake)"

"What On Earth (Will You Do For Heaven's Sake)"

Did you walk another mile, turn a frown with a smile?
Did you lift the lowly heart about to break?
Would you also give your cloak to one who took away your coat?
What on earth will you do for heaven's sake?

Did you feed the poor in spirit and befriend the prosecuted?
Will you show the bounds that all the chains can break?
Did you sow the proper seed? Are you keeping out the weeds?
What on earth will you do for heaven's sake?

Will you be one of the meek, did you turn the other cheek?
Would you give a little more than you would take?
Did you shine your little light upon the children of the night?
What on earth will you do for heaven's sake?

Did you feed the poor in spirit and befriend the prosecuted?
Will you show the bounds that all the chains can break?
Did you sow the proper seed? Are you keeping out the weeds?
What on earth will you do for heaven's sake?
