Take A Stand
03:57
|
|||
Stand up, take a stand, stand up, take a stand.
It's easy to declare our faith with a steeple overhead
We might even say "Amen" to what the preacher said.
But Jesus calls for action, and living faith has feet,
We hear it in the pew, now let's take it to the street.
CHORUS
Take a stand, let's live what we believe
Take a stand, so the world will see.
We can make a difference for Jesus in this land
Don't just take a seat, Take a stand.
Stand up, take a stand, stand up, take a stand.
There's a battle raging in hearts and minds today,
What once we saw as black and white has turned to shades of gray,
But Jesus is the truth, and truth shall set us free,
For the world to see the light, it must shine thru you and me.
CHORUS
*Stand up stand up for Jesus, ye soldiers of the cross,
Lift high the royal banner, it must not suffer loss
From victory, unto victory, we're His army, let Him lead,
We can make a difference for Jesus in this land
Don't just take a seat, Take a stand.
CHORUS
Don't just take a seat, Don't just take a seat, Take a stand. Stand up.

You Move Me
03:18
|
|||
I waste too many days,
Dwelling on my failures and regrets,
It's time I move on, move on to what lies ahead.
You see me for what I'll be, not for what I was.
CHORUS
You move me to dream big dreams,
You hold out hope I've never held before.
You move me beyond myself,
And give me strength to walk thru any door.
I love the way you move and
I love the way you move me.
I'm tired of the dull and the gray,
Paint my life with the colors of your brush.
No more boring and safe, I'm ready to reach out and trust,
Adventure's around the bend, you say, "come on let's go..."
CHORUS
Fear can hold me back and doubts will try to stop me.
But I'll keep my eyes on you.
CHORUS
I love the way you move me, I love the way you move me.

He Is Our Praise
04:11
|
|||
So many gathered on the sand,
Forty years since this began.
They've wandered near and far,
Now here they are,
Just outside the Promised Land.
Moses stands before them now,
In his heart he wonders how
To make the people see, God is all they need
His words ring out above the crowd.
CHORUS
He is our praise, He is our God,
He has performed awesome wonders,
Delivered us all.
Now is the time, this is the place
Let us join our hearts together
And lift up his name,
He is our God, He is our praise.
So many years have come and gone,
Still God's faithfulness lives on
For we still need to know, that He loves us so
He is our strength, our hope, our song.
CHORUS 2x

Keep On Keeping On
04:00
|
|||
Sunday morning, church bell ringing, Lord, we're late again.
I couldn't find my keys or bible, patience wearing thin,
Man, this rain is pouring down
In the backseat kids are screaming, drowning out the sound.
Up ahead, a white haired couple standing in the rain,
Stop to help, step in a puddle, I start to complain.
But they're laughing like two kids.
The old man points and grins, "that tire went flat again"
I shake my head and ask, "What's funny 'bout this mess?"
His blue eyes sparkle as he winks at me and says.
CHORUS
Life is joy and life is pain, there are no guarantees.
Its ups and downs and twists and turns, it's time spent on my knees.
I know there's Love from up above and one day he'll take me home
But until then, I'll keep on keepin on.
I wipe my hands, wave goodbye as the couple drives away,
Off to church, it's almost over, but go in anyway.
The choir sings a last refrain
I close my eyes, raise my hands, lift my voice in praise.
An usher stops to ask, "Is everything OK?"
I shake my head and start to laugh as I hear myself say...
CHORUS
Keep on pushing, keep on pressing
Keep on praying, Keep on giving, Keep on living,
CHORUS
But until then, I'll keep on keepin' on.

Live Today Alone
03:22
|
|||
Another day begins, another race to run,
My life's a never ending list of things I must get done.
I see my Bible there, I reason with myself,
I'm tempted one more time to leave You on the shelf, but...
CHORUS
I don't want to spend today without you,
I don't want to make it on my own.
I don't want to have to face, one day without your saving grace,
I don't want to live today alone.
I'll never understand how words upon a page
Written oh so long ago can speak to me today.
Lord, you know my heart, and Lord you know my need,
So there in every line, you wrote your love for me, and...
CHORUS
Alone, I don't even have the strength to stand,
But in your word I see you holding out your hand, so...
CHORUS 2
I don't have to spend today without you,
I don't have to make it on my own.
I don't ever have to face, one day without your saving grace,
Lord, thank you for calling me your own,
So I don't have to live today... alone.

The Long Haul
03:15
|
|||
Standing at the altar, two hearts holding hands.
With nothing in our pockets but promises and plans.
Not knowing what the future held but ready for the ride.
The preacher gave the green light when He said, "Son, kiss your bride."
CHORUS
This married life may have some strife and tears along the way
But I guarantee that you'll find me beside you come what may
God knows the route we race about, and He'll be there when we stall,
We're gonna win it, cause we're in it for the long haul.
Now we've been down the road, around a turn or two,
We've had some bumps and bruises, but Jesus sees us through
That promise made so long ago is our commitment still.
Cause when we said we do, we did and we will.
CHORUS
Sometimes I carry you, sometimes you carry me.
But still we find, that everytime, we're carried by a hand we can't see.
CHORUS

7. |

The whole world is staring so I try to hide my face.
Pictures in magazines and faces on TV
All screaming out the message of what they think I ought to be.
But I hear one voice rise above the rest, as tenderly He says...
CHORUS
"You are beautiful, you are lovely,
You are special and amazing.
You are beautiful, you take my breath away
And captivate my soul. You are beautiful."
I long to be loved, accepted as I am,
It's scary to be different, why can't I blend in?
What would they all think of me, if they only knew,
The mess I am deep inside and the struggles I go through.
But I hear one voice, stirring in my soul, He says, "Child, I love you so."
CHORUS
I cry out "God, how could you understand,"
He says "my child I know you, I formed with my hands."
CHORUS
"You are beautiful."

I know life can be messy
I know there's trouble & pain
I know there'll be times of plenty
In everything, my song is the same.
CHORUS
Hallelujah in the here and now.
God is good, let there be no doubt.
Whatever the season, I have a reason to shout,
Hallelujah in the here and now.
I know, salvation's behind me,
I know, heaven's ahead.
I know, when troubles find me,
I could complain, but I choose instead...
CHORUS
PRAISE GOD from whom all blessings flow,
PRAISE GOD ye creatures here below.
PRAISE GOD above ye heavenly host
With a hallelujah in the here and now. (repeat)
CHORUS
Hallelujah in the here and now.
VAMP - Hallelujah, sing hallelujah, hallelujah, sing it out right now,
Hallelujah, sing hallelujah, hallelujah in the here and now.
God is good, sing hallelujah, God is good, hallelujah right now,
God is good, sing hallelujah, hallelujah in the here and now.
Right here, right now, sing hallelujah, Right here, right now,
Come on and sing it.
Right here, right now, sing hallelujah, hallelujah in the here and now.

She Cries
04:16
|
|||
Another sleepless night, another day to walk this shadowed path.
She wonders how much longer she can last
Living with regret, the choices that she made,
Watching the colors of her life start to fade.
Silence drives her from her home, to a safe and sacred place.
Surrounded yet alone, she hides her heart as she hides her face.
CHORUS
She cries, she cries,
Her heart can't hold the feelings, she's feeling inside
She cries.
A story from the book, the pastor paints the picture rich and real,
As vivid as the hopelessness she feels,
A woman caught in sin, with guilt that weighs her down,
Then forgiveness falls like stones to the ground
Now the message from the past overwhelms her hurting soul.
She understands at last, she's free to live and free to hope,
CHORUS
Mercy for mistakes, who'd make such a trade for her sin,
What kind of love would take her place,
But Jesus gave his all, so she could safely fall
Into the arms of grace.
CHORUS
But Jesus wipes the tears from her eyes - she cries.

If a shepherd boy can slay a mighty giant
If three Hebrew boys can walk out of the flames
If a dead man can live again, no matter what you face my friend
Just think what God can do for you today.
CHORUS
Nothing is impossible with God,
No nothing is impossible with God.
No fear, no foe, no fire you face, can stand against amazing grace
Nothing is impossible with God.
If the trials of this life have left you broken,
If your faith has given way to fear and doubt.
If the valley that you're walking thru has nearly torn your heart in two,
It's not so deep that God can't lift you out.
CHORUS
So don't lose hope, and don't lose heart, keep holding on and pray,
He'll do for you, what no man can do, He can make a way.
CHORUS
Nothing is impossible with God.

Give Out The Blessing
03:14
|
|||
Each Sunday morning we come to this place
We nourish our souls with God's mercy and grace
We raise up our voices and drown out the cries
Of the lost and the lonely living outside.
CHORUS
Give out the blessing, don't keep it inside,
A blessing that's given can be multiplied.
Pass on to others what God sends today,
We're blessed by the blessings that we give away.
Remember the boy with two fish and some bread,
He gave what he had and thousands were fed
One act of faith and God's power came thru
We can't even imagine, what Jesus will do (when we...)
CHORUS
Consider the cross, where Christ gave it all
Now how can we live, deaf to the cries, numb to the call
CHORUS
We're blessed by the blessings, (blessed by the blessings)
We're blessed by the blessings that we give away.
