Lyrics:
Chorus:
Jesus is the one who saved my soul
He came to make a
world of sinners whole (He came to make a world of sinners whole, sinners
whole)
So if you are searching for a Savior, too (so if you are
searching for Him too, Him too remember)
Remember Jesus gave Himself
for you
Thinking about the wounded heart I could not hide
When I was hurting
from the emptiness inside
I gave a chance for His sweet word to touch
my soul
That's when He gave the greatest joy I'll ever know
Repeat Chorus
Thinking about the fruit of life I've come to know
The happy smile
my weary face has come to glow
Well nothing else could change my life
in this degree
So let me open up my heart for you to see
Repeat Chorus (x2)
Remember Jesus Gave Himself for you
Yes, for you (yes, for you)
Scriptural Reference:
"Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners–of whom I am the worst." 1 Timothy 1:15

Lyrics:
Chorus:
Everything's fine when you're taking the time to know Jesus
(don't you wanna know Him)
Everything's fine when you're taking the
time to know (Him) Him
The answers that you did not know (before you
loved Him so)
Before you came to love Him so
(All become) All seem
to come so clear (all become so clear)
Whenever my Lord is
near
Everything's fine when you're taking the time to know Jesus (don't
you wanna know Him)
Everything's fine when you're taking the time to
know (Him) Him
Well, I used to worry and I used to fret
The world would get me so
upset
It would make me weary and would make me frown
When it would
tug and pull me down
But I was able to rise above
When Jesus pulled
me by His love
I've been changed, forgiven, and He's so kind
He
makes everything fine
Repeat Chorus
Well, I used to envy and I used to pout
The world had filled me up
with doubt
It would make me jealous and would make me sad
When I was
giving in to bad
But I was able to overcome
By all that Jesus Christ
has done
He's done cleared my conscience and settled my mind
He says
everything's fine
Everything's fine when you're taking the time to know Jesus (don't you
wanna know Him)
Everything's fine when you're taking the time to know
(Him) Him
Everything's, everything's, everything's fine
When I am
making and taking the time
Everything's, everything's, everything's
fine (everything's fine when you're taking the time to know)
Everything
is fine, yeah

Lyrics:
Chorus:
El - Shaddai, El - Shaddai
El - Elyon na Adonai
Age to
age you're still the same
By the power of the name
El - Shaddai, El
- Shaddai
Erkamka na Adonai
We will praise and lift you high
El -
Shaddai
Through your love and through the ram
You saved the son of
Abraham
Through the power of your hand
You turned the sea into dry
land
To the outcast on her knees
You were the God who really
sees
And by your might you set your children free
Repeat Chorus
Through the years you made it clear
That the time of Christ was
near
Though the people couldn't see
What Messiah ought to
be
Though your Word contained the plan
They just could not
understand
Your most awesome work was done
Through the frailty of
your Son
Repeat Chorus
We will praise and lift you high
El - Shaddai

Chorus:
Well, everybody's worried about that atom bomb
Well, but
no one seems worried about the day my Lord shall come
You'd better
(you'd better) set your house in order ('cause He) He may be coming
soon
And He'll hit like an atom bomb when He comes, when He comes
Repeat Chorus
Well, in nineteen hundred and forty-five, the atom bomb became
alive
In nineteen hundred and forty-nine, the U.S.A. became very
wise
Found that a country across the line had an atom bomb of the very
same kind
People got worried all over the land, just like the people in
Japan
God told Elijah He would send down fire, send down fire from the
sky
He sent on over the rainbow side, "Won't be water, just fire next
time"
Repeat Chorus
Well, don't be worried, just bear in mind
Trust in Jesus, He's on
time
With peace, happiness, and joy divine
With my Savior on the
line
God told Elijah He would send down fire, send down fire from the
sky
He sent on over the rainbow side, "Won't be a-water, just fire next
time"
Repeat Chorus
Well, everybody's worried about that atom bomb
Well, but no one
seems worried about the day my Lord shall come
You'd better (you'd
better) set your house in order ('cause He) He may be coming soon
And
He'll (hit) hey, hey, hear my Lord you know
Yes He'll hit like an atom
bomb when He comes, when He comes
Scriptural Reference:
"But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare." 2 Peter 3:10

Chorus:
We were made in His image
Being formed by a perfect
hand
At the dawn of creation
In His likeness He made man
When I'm
down and weary is the time that I forget
How He came to make me like
the best
There are people around me (people around) who don't know who they are
(who they are)
They were made in the image (made just like Him) of the
highest power (highest power)
No one's told them good news that been
made so clear (made so clear, that's been made so clear)
I must tell it
now so every one can hear (you can hear)
Repeat Chorus
There are brothers around me (brothers around) who don't show who they
are (who they are)
They were made in the image (made just like Him) of
Jehovah God (He's our God)
They don't stop and think of what that
really means (what that means, what that really means)
Being fashioned
after Jesus the King of Kings (King of Kings)
We were made in His image
Made in His image
Made in the image of
the best
Made in His image (just like Him)
Made in His image
Made
in the image (better than all the rest) of the best

Made
in His image (just like Him) (we were made in His image)

image (just like the best)
Made in the image (better than all the rest)
of the best (well, I just know that...)
Made in His image (just like
Him)
Made in His image (fade)

Chorus:
You are the Christ, the Son of the living God
Some say
John the Baptist, Elijah, or Jeremiah
But you are the Christ, the Son
of the living God
This was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father
in heaven
When Jesus came to Caeserea of Philippi
He asked, "who do people say
the Son of man is?"
Some say John the Baptist and others Elijah and
others Jeremiah or one of the prophets
"But what about you?" He asked,
"Who do you say I am?"
Peter said...
Repeat Chorus
Blessed are you Simon, son of Jonah
For this was not revealed to you
by man, but by my Father in heaven
I tell you that you are Peter and on
this rock I will build my church
Hades will not overcome it
And we know...
Repeat Chorus
I give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven
Whatever you bind will
be bound up in heaven
I give you the keys of the kingdom of
heaven
Whatever you loose will be loosed up in heaven
'Cause...
Repeat Chorus
Yes by my Father in heaven
Scriptural Reference:
"When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?" They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets." "But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?" Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven. And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." Matthew 16:13-19

Lyrics:
Soon our clouds will roll away after its gone, a brighter day
(We
shall have glory) We shall have glory after awhile, yes after
awhile
All of our cares we'll lay aside, with the redeemed to
abide
(We shall have glory) We shall have glory after awhile, yes after
awhile
Chorus:
We shall have glory (we shall have glory)
When we reach
heaven (when we reach heaven)
We shall have glory (we shall have
glory)
After awhile (yes, after awhile)
Sorrow and death will come
no more, all will be joy upon that shore
(We shall have glory) We shall
have glory after awhile, yes after awhile
Labor a little longer here after the vision made so clear
(We shall
have glory) We shall have glory after awhile, yes after awhile
Then
with our burdens all laid down, we shall take up the golden crown
(We
shall have glory) We shall have glory after awhile, yes after awhile
Repeat Chorus (x2)

Chorus:
Brother Taylor keep on preachin'
'Cause you
know just what we need
When we turn from what we know is right
And
what is good indeed
Brother Taylor don't be easy
As your telling us
His Word
Tell the greatest news that man has ever heard
At the old country church house (old country church), he was
the preacher man
He preached the Word from the Bible, talkin' 'bout the
promised land
And the old time religion (preachin' the word) and just
how it will be
It seemed like he was preachin' to me
When he spoke
about righteousness and having pure minds
And controlling our appetite
all of the time
Didn't know if I could live it (knew it was right),
though I knew it was right
Love the Lord with all of my might
Repeat Chorus
Then I came to the crossroads (came to a choice) and I was
given a choice
I could see Brother Taylor; I could still hear his
voice
"If you wanna follow Jesus (answer His call) and would answer His
call
You know you've got to give Him your all"
So I made a decision
(do what is right) that I would do what is right
I would give to the
Master all of my life
Yes for old Brother Taylor's (still on my mind)
an inspiration to me
Guides me to eternity
Repeat Chorus
Even though he's gone (he's gone), I have the strength to
carry on (carry on)
The word he left with me is I'm forgiven
I hear
him preaching now (hear now) as he is sharing with us how (share with
how)
That we can live together up in Heaven
Repeat Chorus
Ever heard (still preach the Word)

Lyrics:
Won't you...
Stop (stop) the way (the way) you're goin' (you're goin') down
Stop
(stop) the way (the way) you're goin' (you're goin') down
(repeat
once for each of first two lines of verse)
Once you were faithful and were happy living in the Lord
But you
turned from His presence and the message of His Holy word
And you
remember how contented was your station living in His grace (so happy in
His grace)
So won't you listen to the Savior as He tries to save you
from that place?
Chorus 1:
You better stop (stop) (better stop)
The way you're
living, how can you go on?
You gotta stop (stop) (gotta stop)
The
way you're living, holding to the wrong
You're gettin' further and
further and further away
Got to get back to His power today
You're
gettin' further and further and further away
Got to get back to His
power
Won't you...
Stop (stop) the way (the way) you're goin' (you're
goin') down
Stop (stop) the way (the way) you're goin' (you're goin')
down
(repeat once for each of first two lines of verse)
When you were covered by the blood you were a mighty man
Then you
feel to enticements that are evil, I don't understand
You still can
turn around and make it right by throwing off the mire of sin (throw of
the way of sin)
Though if you hesitate, procrastinate, then Satan's
hate will do you in
Chorus 2:
You better stop (stop) (better stop)
The way you're
living, how can you go on?
You gotta stop (stop) (gotta stop)
The
way you're living, holding to the wrong
You're gettin' further and
further and further away
Got to get back to His power today
You're
gettin' further and further and further away
Got to get back (got to
get back), got to get back (got to get back), got to get back to His
power
(Got to get back) Got to get back (got to get back), got to get back (got to get back), got to get back to His power
Bridge:
Why does your heart seem to be very cold, insensitive to the
light (very cold, turn to the light)?
Only if you would come back to
the fold, the Shephard will make it all right (in the fold to be all
right)
Repeat Chorus 2
(Got to get back) Got to get back (got to get back), got to get back
(got to get back)
You better stop (stop)
