"The Battle Is The Lord's"




[Speaking:]
What are you trying to say Yolanda?
Look forget about all that other junk
this battle ain't yours, its the lord's
think about it, and then start shouting help me sing

[verse 1:]
There is no pain, Jesus can't feel
There is no hurt, that He can't heal
For all things work (yes they do)
According to the masters purpose
and his holy will
no matter what (you in the balcony)
are going thru, remember that God only wants a chance to use you
for the battle is not yours its the Lord's
(we gonna tell the devil that all right?)

There's no sadness, Jesus can't feel
and there is no sorrow,
that the master is not able and willing to heal
remember that all things work
they're not gonna be all good
but they're gonna work according to God's purpose and his holy will
no matter what, no matter what you're going thru
remember God sees all and he knows all
and all he wants to do is use you
for this Battle is not yours its, its its its its the lord

This battle is the Lord's. its the Lord's
(yes its the Lord's) it is the Lord's
(but in faith you've got to hold your head up high) hold your head up high
(you belong to the most high God you don't need to cry)

(No matter what) No matter what

This battle is not yours, no, it belongs to the Lord
Hallelujah, yeah

"The Good Shepherd"

"The Good Shepherd"



Quietly He speaks to me.
Gently He leads me.
Lovingly the Shepherd carries me.
He carries me hidden safely in His bosom
I feel His love inside when other times, my friend, I couldn't.
He knows just what's best for me;
The Good Shepherd knows, He knows
Just what I need.

Quietly He speaks.
Gently the Master leads.
So lovingly He carries me to
A safe place of rest.
And I feel the Master's unconditional love,
Everlasting love,
Ever so deeply inside of me.
I'm so glad Jesus knows
Just what's best for me.

The Good Shepherd knows -
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for Jesus is with me.
He leads me, He guides me, He hides me
In the shelter of His arms;
He holds me there.
The Good Shepherd knows
Just what I need.

"The Only Way"

"The Only Way"



Everywhere that I go
I must tell everyone of the Savior I know
And the things He has done
He's the Truth and the Life
And there's no other way to the Father
But by him

Long ago when He knew you'd be out on a limb
He gave His life for you
Can't you live yours for him
He's the Almighty Rock
And you won't have a firm foundation
Unless you're build on Him

You can't live without Him
You can't move without Him
You can't breathe without Him
You can't think about doing one thing without Him
You can't do without Him
'Cause there's no you without Him
Because He's the only way
The only way

There's no other name
Than the name of Jesus
There's no one
Than the one who frees us
There's no other way
No other way
What more can I say?
He's the only only way
The only way

"The Things We Do"

"The Things We Do"


[Verse 1:]
Every day that goes by
Every moment you'll find
There's a broken heart
A tear is cried
A wish is made
That never comes true
And somewhere someone needs to be found

[Chorus:]
The things we do, the things we say
Are gentle rays of hope that touch us all each day
The things we do, the things we say
These are the greatest gifts we'll ever give away
The things we do

[Verse 2:]
Every day in this life
Every moment you'll find
A heart is healed
A dream is found
A tear is dried
And laughter is heard
And somehow someone's life will be changed by

[Chorus:]
The things we do, the things we say
Are gentle rays of hope that touch us all each day
The things we do, the things we say
These are the greatest gifts we'll ever give away
The things we do

[Bridge:]
Oh every hand that has been held
Has reached out for somebody else
In every move we make
Every day
We pass love on this way

[Chorus]

"This Joy"

"This Joy"


Something deep inside makes me smile when otherwise
I would cry in hopeless wonder ´cause I have no peace inside
Joy picks me up and takes me through
It so real I´m telling you
So many trails I´ve endured
God has given me the cure
I have a joy, a joy that´s unspeakable
It soothes my doubts
When the way gets hard
Although, I lived in sin
He cleansed my heart
Now lives within
Saved my soul from a burning hell
Christ lives in me now
Oh

No the world didn´t give this joy to me
And this world can´t take it away
This world didn´t to me no no no

I found a friend who´s all the world to me
His love is so ever true
I love to tell how He growed me out
And He changed my Life
With christ in my heart without a doubt
I am satisfied
Now I am save from sin
And hard leaning on His mighty arm
Secured my soul
Each day in every way
I know He´ll guide me
The world didn´t give this joy to me
And this world cannot take my joy away
The world didn´t give it to me
no no no

Nothing in this world can take the place of this joy
and amazing grace
He loosed my shackles and He set me free
I didn´t deserve all that He´s done for me
He give me joy
Unspeakable joy
What a marvelous joy
He gives a joy that´s unspeakable
I love him so
So what a friend I have in Jesus
All my sins and griefs He bears
This joy gives me everything I need
All I have to do is take it to Him in prayer
He give me joy, joy, joy, joy, joy, joy
When I´m stuck, when I´m lonely
I still have joy
Because I know He is my all
My all
My all in all
I don´t have to worry because
He takes care of me
And I know, I know, I know
I know where my strength comes from
I know where my joy comes from
It´s in Jesus
It´s in Jesus
I can lean on Him
I can depend on Him
Wonderful, Counselor
What is His Name?
What is His Name?

Jesus

Joy, my joy

Now we´re not talking about somebody about 6 foot six

Oh Jesus
We´re talking about Jesus
Joy, my joy
Jesus is the one Who gives us joy
He´s the One who sets us free
He´s the One who sets us free
Because He is my joy I can dance
Come on, everybody in the building sing

Come on, come on
Talk about Jesus´ joy
He is my all in all [x8]
Jesus is, Jesus is, Jesus is my all
Joy, my joy
One more time, one more time
Come on, ya´ll help
Joy.

"This Too Shall Pass"

"This Too Shall Pass"


In the middle of the turbulence surrounding you
These trying times are so hard to endure
In the middle of what seems to be your darkest hour
Hold fast your heart and be assured

[CHORUS:]
This too shall pass
Like every night that's come before it
He'll never give you more than you can bear
This too shall pass
So in this thought you'd be comforted
For it's in His Hands
This too shall pass

The Father knows the tears you cry before they fall
He feels your pain, His heart and yours are one
The Father knows that sorrow's heavy chains are strong
But with His strength, you'll overcome

[REPEAT CHORUS]

So set your eyes upon the mountain
And lift your hands up to the sky
And let His arms of love surround you
And take you to the other side

[REPEAT CHORUS]

"Through The Storm"

"Through The Storm"


The storms of life will blow
They're sure to come and go
They meet us all at a time
When I'm calm and doing fine

But the Captain of my soul
He's always on board
He rocks me in His arms
While riding through the storm

[Chorus:]
While riding through the storm
Jesus holds me in His arms
I am not afraid
Of the stormy winds and the waves

Though the tides become high
He holds me while I ride
I find safety in the masters arms
While riding through the storm
I have no fear of the raging seas
Knowing Jesus will forever be right here with me
He can speak to the wind to my enemies and to the waves
And he make them all behave

All power's in the masters hand
When I'm on sea or dry land
I found safety in the Master's holding arms
While riding through the storm
(oaah)While through the storm
Jesus holds me in his precious arms
Noohoho I'm not afraid of the stormy wind
No no

"Time To Change"

"Time To Change"




We got something to say
ya' know
it's wanna those joints here

Yolanda
Umm, Hmm...
check this out
ya know
it's time to change
Yolanda

[Chorus]
It's been to long it's time to change
Can't get away with every thing,
please tell me why you wait
Gotta answer for yourself someday

A man that I know from the neighborhood
Whenever I see him he's up to no good
Taking from others to get what he wants
and
he thinks that there's no way he'll ever get caught.

[Chorus]

Husband and wife a baby girl, there happy
but then there's a woman from down the street
writing letters and
sending pictures and,
doing all that she can
tyring hard to gain
the attention of a married man (girl ya' wrong now)

Ya, story is
I'm just a kid, and it's all in fun
ya never stop
to reilize ya hurting someone
How would you feel if everything was turned around
and everyday somebody was putting you down (ohh.. too long)

[Chorus till end]

"Tonight"
(feat. Kirk Franklin)

"Tonight"
(feat. Kirk Franklin)



I know it's been a while now,
Since you last heard from me,
Or talked to me
It's been kind of hard lately
I've had a lot on my mind
It's been so long that,
I'm afraid that the words may not come out right
But, tonight I'll try
Tonight
Tonight I'll try
Tonight

I know that prayin' ain't always easy
It's hard sometimes to express what you feel inside
Especially when you don't think God is listening
It's been raining now for sometime
But instead of what I see
You want me to trust You, working it out for me
So, tonight I will try
Tonight
Oh oh oh
Tonight I'll try
Tonight

Who ever told you that living in this world would be easy?
Baby, they lied
And, whoever said that lovin' folk that don't love you back ain't really hard
Even though you really tryin'
Telling you what I'm going through
Sometimes it's harder than I realize
But tonight I'll try
Tonight
Tonight I'll try
Tonight

So, tonight when you get home
You oughta unplug the phone
And get alone
Tell your Father how you truly feel
Even if your words don't come out right
For no matter how far you've gone
God's love can find you, and bring you back home
So, tonight you oughta try,
Tonight
So, tonight you oughta try,
Tonight

Who ever told you that living in this world would be easy?
Baby, they lied
And, whoever said that lovin' folk who don't love you back ain't really hard
Even though you really tryin'
Telling you what I'm going through
Sometimes it's harder than I realize
But tonight I'll try
Tonight
Tonight I'll try
Tonight

Tonight
Take away my pain (Tonight)
Take away my strains (Tonight)
And let me live (Tonight)
All over again (Tonight)
Tonight I'm gonna throw my hands up (Tonight)
Tonight I'm gonna give it all up (Tonight)
Tonight I wanna turn it all around (Tonight)
Put my feet on solid ground (Tonight)
Won't you take me where you need to take me (Tonight)
Won't you do with me what you wanna do with me (Tonight)
Tonight
Tonight
This night
Tonight
I'm yours
I'm yours [x3]

"Unconditional"

"Unconditional"



Unconditional, unconditional
Unconditional, unconditional

Who else would let someone nail them to a cross
For the sake of others so they would not be lost
No one, No one, will go that far for us
Who else would let someone get away with so much wrong
But still extend them gret (*grace*)
No one, No one, have so much love for us

The kind of love he shows is unconditional
His love don't come and go it's unconditional

Who else but him
He's a constant friend
Even when others turn them backs against
No one, No one is always there for us
So what kind of love

So even when your closest friends and family give up on you
Theres not a day when you can't depend on him
