We've been made more than conquerors
Overcomers in this life
We've been made victorious

Don't be afraid, you know it's not like before
Don't you give in, don't let it bring you down
Cause you dont have to worry anymore!

Hold on, we're getting stronger everyday
There's no reason for you to go astray
Don't go leaning to your understanding
Cause you dont have to worry anyway!

Lyrics:

There's a light that's from the window and it shines down on the street
There's some guys standing on the corner making that good old harmony
And now there's a light that's from the window and it's sent to the street corner symphony
Let 'em sing let 'em shout cause they're singing that good old harmony

Chorus:
Singing it soul to soul, Brother to brother
A cappella--Well it sounds good to me
Singing it soul to soul, Brother to brother
A cappella--Well it sounds good to me

And now I turn out the light say goodnight to another day
I'm gonna rest my weary head in my long awaited bed
I'm gonna get on my knees and pray, ask the Lord to give me just one more day
Oh Lord, hear my plea--This music just sounds so good to me

Repeat Chorus

You know we're singing for the Lord and now we're feeling mighty good
Makin music with our voices like we know all Christians should
We don't need any type of guitar or an instrument to use
Oh it sounds good to me and I'm hoping it sounds good to you

Army of the Lord

Words and music: Brent Lamb © Straightaway Music (ASCAP)
Lead: Keith Lancaster
Sample: Windows Media

Lyrics:

Chorus:
Are we walking into the enemy's camp, laying our weapons down
shedding our armor as we go, leaving it on the ground?
We've gotta be strong in the power of his might and prove to the enemy
We are the army of the Lord and we've won the victory.

All around us a war's going on between the wrong and the right
We've gotta choose which side we're on-the darkness or the light
Some of the soldiers of the Lord just don't realize
that the captain of the army of darkness has come to blind their eyes

Repeat Chorus

Can't you see that we're in a battle and there's no place to hide?
The shields of faith are full of darts and their shooting from every side
Just shake out the darts and run right at em' and remember who you're fighting for
Don't fall asleep cuz' if they catch ya' they'll take you prisoner of war

Repeat Chorus (x2)

We are the army of the Lord and we've won the victory!

Scriptural Reference:

"With God we will gain the victory!" Psalm 60:12
"Put on the full armor of God." Ephesians 6:11

The hour I first believed

When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun!

John the Revelator

Words and music: Rusty Goodman © 1974 by First Monday Music (ASCAP)
This song was also recorded on Gold by Acappella.
Lead: Keith Lancaster
Sample: Windows Media

Lyrics:

Upon the Isle of Patmus
One man was cast one day
As he was left alone to die
He began to pray
The Holy Ghost fell on him
The Spirit, he came down
Well he began to write about the things he saw
The Revelator's name was John

Chorus:
Talkin' 'bout John the revelator
he saw Jerusalem coming down
Yes it was John the Revelator
And when he looked around
He saw feet like brass
Eyes like fire
Heard a great voice saying
Come up higher
He was John the Revelator
He wrote about the city of God

While in the Spirit praying
John turned around to see
If the voice he had heard
Was what it seemed to be
Just like many waters
A great trumpet sound
Well he said I am the first and last
The Revelator wrote it down

Repeat Chorus (x3)

Scriptural Reference:

"I, John, your brother and companion in the suffering of the kingdom and patient endurance that are ours in Jesus was on the island of Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.  On the Lord's Day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet, which said: 'Write on a scroll everything you see and send it to the severn churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodecia.  I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me.  And when I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, and among the lampstands was someone "like a son of man," dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest.  His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire.  His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters."  Revelation 1:9-15
