"I Gotta Get Over This"

"I Gotta Get Over This"

I gotta get over this, this hurt is lasting much too long
I gotta get over this, get back on the track where I belong
I gotta get over this, this hurt is lasting much too long
I gotta get over this, get back on the track where I belong
You said we were through and I said that I knew this was coming on
I saw it in your eyes that look you can't disguise I've known you much too long
We thought we'd try to leave it with a smile cause bitter teardrops
Just ain't our style
You've been gone sometime but this feeling in my mind still seems to beat me down
Now's the time to fill this empty in my heart I'm tired of hangin' 'round
I know our love will never be the same
I've got to pull my head out of this foolish game

"I Guess It Never Hurts To Hurt Sometimes"

"I Guess It Never Hurts To Hurt Sometimes"

Sometimes I feel the wave
Of a past break in my mind
And I know it's gone for good
And it makes me want to cry.
Is this all we get to keep
As the years go rolling by?
Just a memory
For all the days gone by.
Oh you're always in my heart
And you're often on my mind.
I will never let it die
Just as long as I'm alive.
Sometimes it makes me sad
That we never said goodbye.
Well I guess it never hurts
To hurt sometimes.
You try and hold on to the moment
But time won't let you stay
But for every step you take
You lose something on the way.
You can't look forward to tomorrow
And still hold on to yesterday.
Oh I hope that you can hear me
When I'm saying.
Oh you're always in my heart
And you're often on my mind.
I will never let it die
Just as long as I'm alive.
Sometimes it makes me sad
That we never said goodbye.
Well I guess it never hurts
To hurt sometimes.
Oh you're always in my heart (always in my heart)
And you're often on my mind (often on my mind).
I will never let it die
Just as long as I'm alive.
Sometimes it makes me sad
That we never said goodbye.
Well I guess it never hurts
To hurt sometimes.
No I guess it never hurts
To hurt sometimes.

"I Know"

"I Know"

Some people say, that this old time religion
is just a thing of the past,
But in this modern age that we're livin',
It's the only thing that will last.
Now you may think I'm a little old fashioned,
Well friend, that's alright with me,
'Cause I'm so glad that I am a Christian,
And from sin I have been set free.
I know, I know, there's no doubt about it
He's real in my heart, and I'm gonna shout it,
I know, I know, my sins are forgiven
And I'm on my way to a place thats called heaven.
Not long ago, at an old fashioned meeting,
I knelt on my knees there in prayer.
He lifted my burdens and shackles fell from me,
And his presence was so real everywhere.
Now that the load I carry is lighter,
and He's changed the grey skies to blue,
My steps are now higher for I have this assurance,
that His sweet love will carry me through.
Come go with me to that land over yonder,
He's prepared for the pure and the true,
It's a place where sickness and death can not enter,
I'm going, brother, how about you?
Maybe today, maybe tomorrow,
He'll return in robes of pure white,
I'm packing up now, getting my things together,

"I Know What Lies Ahead"

"I Know What Lies Ahead"

This road I'm on is strait and narrow
But it leads to a better home
It was laid by Christ one day at Calvary
While He suffered all alone
This road may lead over many high mountains
And valleys dark and low
But I'll walk each day with sweet assurance
And I'll safely reach my home
Ahead there's joy and gladness
And rest for the weary soul
Ahead there's peace and contentment
Everybody will be happy and whole
I'll be at home with Jesus
Where tears will never be shed
Though often this road gets rough and rocky
Still I know what lies ahead
While on this road I get so weary
And often my feet would stray
But a gentle hand still leads me onward
And helps me find the way
As I climb each hill and cross each valley
By His hand I'm daily lead
But I won't look back gonna keep on walking
For I know what lies ahead

"I Love You So Much It Hurts"

"I Love You So Much It Hurts"

I love you so much, it hurts me
Darling, that's why I'm so blue
I'm so afraid to go to bed at night
Afraid of losing you
I love you so much, it hurts me
And there's nothing I can do
I want to hold you, my dear, forever and ever
I love you so much, it hurts me so
I love you so much, it hurts me
Whether near or far away
I want to hold you, my dear, forever and ever
I love you so much, it hurts me so
I want to hold you, my dear, forever and ever
I love you so much, it hurts me so

"I Saw The Light"
(originally by Hank Williams)

"I Saw The Light"
(originally by Hank Williams)

I saw the light, I saw the light
No more darkness, no more night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I wandered so aimless, my heart filled with sin
I wouldn't let my dear Savior in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I saw the light, I saw the light
No more darkness, no more night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light

Just like a blind man I wandered alone
Worries and fears, I claimed for my own
Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I saw the light, I saw the light
No more darkness, no more night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I was a fool to wander and stray
Straight is the gate and narrow the way
Now I have traded the wrong for the right
Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I saw the light, I saw the light
No more darkness, no more night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light

"I Wish You Could Have Turned My Head (And Left My Heart Alone)"

"I Wish You Could Have Turned My Head (And Left My Heart Alone)"

(And Left My Heart Alone)
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong.
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that strong,
But I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone.
First time I laid eyes on you, got caught up in your sway;
Thought I didn't have a chance and then you looked my way.
From the longin' to the lovin', girl, we've made it all the way,
But for all the hunger in my eyes my heart has had to pay.

"I Wish You Were Here (Oh My Darlin')"

"I Wish You Were Here (Oh My Darlin')"

Wish you were here oh my darling
I still think about me and you
Of all of the pleasures I've known in my life
This one keeps holding me near
Times that we spent in those innocent days
Those were the days you were hear
Saturday movies, a kiss in the dark
Love was so tender and kind
Simple and true like the heart of a child
Never a doubt you were mine
Wish you were here oh my darling
Sharing the times that we knew
Wish you were here oh my darling
I still think about me and you
Time got away with the boy in my face
I know it's just a little too late
Heard you got married, I guess you stopped caring
Still nobody's taken your place
Cheatin' and lyin' with hearts that stop tryin'
That's how I'm doing these days
I miss you tonight and I wanted to write
Here's all I wanted to say

"I Would Crawl All The Way (To The River)"

"I Would Crawl All The Way (To The River)"

A long time ago there was a Man
Who laid down His life on the line
He claimed He could make the lame walk again
And give back the sight to the blind
Now some people loved Him
Some people wanted to take Him and put Him away
Well I wasn't there to see what he did
But if He were right here today
I would crawl all the way to the river
I would crawl all the way to the sea
Just to watch Him walk on the water
And lay His loving hands on me
A carpenter by trade but the kingdom that He made
Was build without hammer and nails
It stands like a rock through the ages of time
It was built with the Love that never fails
I've read in the Good Book that some day He's coming
And some say it ain't far away
But the day that He stands on the banks of the Jordan
This sinner will be on his way

"I'll Be True To You"

"I'll Be True To You"

They met upon a blue moon,
And they parted on a cloudy day
They were so in love and out of school,
But he was goin' so far, far away.
She said: "I'll be true to you,
"Even though you don't want me to.
"And I'll be blue for you,
"Even though you've asked me not to."
Well the year's drifted by them, as we all know they can.
He found other women, but she refused other men.
But as fate would have it, they met again,
She was on a down-hill slide, he was just slidin' in.
As he looked into her eyes that night, he never realized.
The only real love in his life was passin' by.
When he turned and left her there, his words: "Goodbye".
He heard her calling out to him, and as he walked, she cried:
"I've been true to you.
"Seems like speakin' to me is the least that you could do.
"And I've been blue for you,
"Even though you've asked me not to."
She'd been drinkin way too hard one night,
She'd been drinkin way too long.
Alone and pale in a cheap hotel, she died there in the dawn.
Kneelin' by the grave, oh so late and oh so wrong,
He longed to hold her close again, cryin' on and on.
He cried: "I'll be true to you.
"After all that I have put you through.
"And I'll be blue for you,
"Though you never even asked me to."
