Lyrics:
Chorus 1:
Anywere I go and whatever I may do
Jesus, you're my
Lord. I believe in you
And I know you'll answer every time that I
pray
Jesus, you're my Lord. I believe in you, I believe in you
I believe (I believe)
I believe (I believe)
I believe (I
believe)
I believe
I believe that you walked on the water
That you made the blind to
see
I believe that you came and died on the cross
To set me
free
It makes me so happy just to know that you love me
I want you
to know that in you I believe
Chorus 2:
Anywere I go and whatever I may do (I believe in
you)
Jesus, you're my Lord. I believe in you (Jesus you're my
Savior)
And I know you'll answer every time that I pray (every time
that I pray)
Jesus, you're my Lord. I believe in you, I believe in you
(I believe in you)
I believe (I believe)
I believe (I believe) (I believe in you)
I
believe (I believe)
I believe
I believe in the angel who sat on the stone
That was rolled away (I
believe)
I believe that the Son of God rose again
On that glorious
day (I believe)
It makes me so happy (makes me so happy) just to know
that you are alive (I will believe til I die)
I will believe in you
until the day that I die (until I see you)
Repeat Chorus 2
Bridge:
I believe that he's up in heaven (I believe, I
believe)
Sitting at God's right hand (I believe, I believe)
I
believe that we've got to be ready (I believe, I believe)
'Cause he's
coming again
Repeat Chorus 1

Lead: Kaci Bolls
Lyrics:
All right now, all right now, all right now, all right now
I'm feeling fine today. What else can I say?
I know all along
through all the wrong
He's making me strong
When tears are not
enough, when life seems too tough
Through the daily grind, if you're
one step behind
Just give it some time
'Cause there is one who loves me
Shown me good living
Constantly
serving, Constantly giving
Everything is gonna be all right
Everything is gonna be all
right
Murphy said if it could go wrong it would
I kind of doubt that
he was looking for the good
'Cause God said, everything is gonna be all
right
You've got your head held high (head held high)
But you're not sure
why
Don't try to pretend, you'll only win
If he's living
within
Without the light of day you can't see the way
So why all the
pain? You worry in vain
His loss is your gain
'Cause there is one who loves me
Shown me good living
Constantly
serving, constantly giving
Chorus:
Everything is gonna be all right (yes it is)
Everything
is gonna be all right
Just keep in mind that He is working on your
heart
Don't tell me you forgot who's been there
From the
start
'Cause God said everything is gonna be all right
Bridge:
He said it's gonna be okay
Just listen close to what He
will say
He said it's gonna be okay
He'll lift you up if you kneel
down to pray
Repeat Chorus
(Everything is gonna be all right)
Everything is gonna be all right
(all right now, all right now, all right now, all right now)
Everything
is gonna be all right
Scriptural Reference:
"What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ." Philippians 3:8

Give Me You
Words and music: Duane Adams and Jason Ratliff © 1994 Anthony K. Music
(ASCAP)
Lead: Mary Adams
Lyrics:
I want you to know, really know
How to live for you Lord
The
truth in your book is enough (it's enough, it's enough)
But what do we
find
When our heart is confined
To a rule that our mind's made up?
Can I see, truly see
In this dark-filled world
Your love that
shines light everyday?
When our hearts become blind
Because we close
our eyes to your way
Chorus:
Give me you (no other comforts)
No other comforts can
fill me like you do
I'm tired of emotion (I'm tired) from shallow
devotion
All I'm asking now is give me you (all I want is you)
Sometimes, many times
It's a lonely road
To raise a Godly family
on my own
But I'm praying in time
That my husband will find
The
love that you, Lord, have shown
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
For the storms, they come with no warning
(And you are)
Hiding your face from me
In the midst of my fall
Your great love
shines through it all
Repeat Chorus (with stepouts)
All I really need (all I really need) is you (give me you)
Scriptural Reference:
"Shout for joy, O heavens; rejoice, O earth; burst into song, O mountains! For the Lord comforts his people and will have compassion on his afflicted ones." Isaiah 49:13

Lyrics:
Chorus:
Center your faith, center your hope
Center your heart,
center your love
Center your mind, center your dreams
Center your
life, center your love
Shepherds gathered 'round a child
Sent to save a world
defiled
Leaving flocks to see the one
The Lamb of God
The
Father's only Son
Center your love
Soldiers gathered 'round a cross
Sinners' gain is heaven's
loss
Between two guilty thieves was shown
The awesome love that man
had never known
Center your love
Repeat Chorus (with double echo)
Angels gathered 'round the throne (round the throne)
All God's
children gathered home (gathered home)
The world revolves around the
sun (heav'n revolves)
Heaven revolves around the Son of God (center
your love)
Center your love
Center your love (center your love)
Repeat Chorus (with echo)
Repeat Chorus (with echo and double echo)

the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the Lord

good?" Deuteronomy 10:12-13

Lyrics:
Chorus:
You've been readin' in the Word
And you've been talkin'
to the Lord
I could tell it right away, you've been in it night and
day
I could tell by what you do and what you say
Chorus 2:
You've been readin' in the Word (I could tell,
tell)
And you've been talkin' to the Lord (I could tell, tell)
I
could tell it right away, you've been in it night and day (I could tell,
tell)
I could tell by what you do and what you say (I could tell)
Well if you're bearin' fruit
It shows that you're on the vine
And
lovin' one another proves that
You're really mine
The things you say
and do
Reflect the state of your heart
So love the Lord with all of
your heart
Repeat Chorus 2
All the world is lookin'
For some peace in their mind (oh we're
lookin')
They seek it high and low
And yet just trouble they find
(oh we're seekin')
But you and I, we know
The message they need to
hear (oh we can tell it)
If we'll just tell them Jesus is near (tell
'em He's right hear)
Repeat Chorus 2
(interlude)
Repeat Chorus 2
Bridge:
I can see by your smile
And your spiritual style
I'm
so happy to know
That you're growin'
You've got hope in your
eyes
And you're faithful and wise
You've got love in your
heart
And it's showin'
I can see you growin'
You've been readin' in the Word
And you've been talkin' to the
Lord
You've been readin' in the Word
And you've been talkin' to the
Lord
Repeat Chorus 1 (x2)

Side of the Road
Words and music: Danny Burch, Hank Fenn, and Trey Daniels © 1991
Anthony K. Music (ASCAP)
Lead: Kaci Bolls
Lyrics:
Chorus:
The side of the road you take
Determines the person that
you make
We should do all that we can
To do the will of God's
plan
Which side of the road will you take?
What kind of person will
you make?
Well it's time to take a stand
You can live the life He's
planned
Which side of the road will you take?
There's two sides to each road we travel
Each side has an end
One
side leads to eternal life
The other we are condemned
Have you ever
stopped to wonder
Where you destination lies?
Will you choose the
path that's narrow
Or will you choose the path that's wide?
Repeat Chorus
The road that's narrow is hard to find
And few will enter in
But
Satan's road is easy to follow
Just lead a life of sin
God's
provided an open door
And offers it to you (just for you)
So take a
step of faith, my friend
And find the path that's true
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
When all your ways acknowledge him (keeping you from
sin)
Then He will keep you from paths of sin (which side will you take)
Repeat Chorus
Which side of the road will you take?
Scriptural Reference:
"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." Matthew 7:13-14

Lead:
Jeanette Greenlee
Lyrics:
I am waiting by the front gate
Others wait here, too
I've been
called to be a bridesmaid
And my lamp is burning true
I am chosen to
await him
But the hour is growing late
The moon is climbing high
now
And it's hard to stay awake
But. . .
Chorus:
The bridegroom's coming
Got to keep the lamps all
trimmed
The bridegroom's coming
Waiting patiently for Him
The
wedding feast is waiting
And they're ready to begin
And I pray He'll
find me worthy to come in
(I wanna see Him, I wanna see Him)
I awoke at midnight
Someone said he was near
We rushed to get our
lamps lit
But some cried out in fear
We need some of your oil
now
Our lamps are growing dim
I'm afraid I cannot help them
I've
just enough for him
'Cause
Repeat Chorus
(I wanna see Him, I wanna see Him)
(I wanna see my Lord)
Bridge:
We led the bridegroom to the wedding
He said hit's time
to begin
He locked the doors and closed the world out
My friends
came back, but they could not come in
Repeat Chorus (x2)
(I wanna see Him, I wanna see Him)
Scriptural Reference:
"The bride belongs to the bridegroom. The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegroom's voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete." John 3:29

I Know the Love
Words and music: Duane Adams, Gary Moyers, and George Pendergrass ©
1994 Anthony K. Music (ASCAP)/Clifty Music (BMI)
Lead: Kim Scott, Cathy
Crafton, and Delisa McKinzie
Lyrics:
He loves me, I know He loves me (I know His love)
He loves me, I
know He loves me (blessed love)
For the rain must fall
But that doesn't mean I let it pour over
me
People look for bad
But that doesn't mean that's what I must
choose to see
Too many times I've been blinded
By my feelings
alone
But I know that I can always depend on the Lord
'Cause He's in
control
Chorus:
For I know the love of my dear Father
I can go to Him
when times get tough
In searching for strength there is no other
For
I know His love and that's enough
So my wish for you
Is hoping you can see
What your life can
be
For the love of God has made
All of the difference in life for
me
There's so much more than the pain and strife
He wants to show
you a better life
It's up to you, my friend
So give Him a chance
(give Him one more chance, give Him a chance)
Repeat Chorus (with stepouts)
Bridge:
I'm a winner on patrol (and I'm for the Lord)
For a
Savior who has come inside
And taken control
Still a sinner who has
been sold (I've been sold)
To the love of one who will not let go
Repeat Chorus (with stepouts)
Repeat Chorus
For I know his love and that's enough
That's enough
I can go to
Him (I can go to Him)
That's enough (I know His love)
Scriptural Reference:
"You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ." Romans 8:9

Dedication: This song is dedicated
in the spirit of one whose life has been given to helping and bringing joy
where there was sadness. Shirley Carrigan, may your burdens be light and
your troubles few as He carries you in his care.
Lead: Jenny Remsburg
Lyrics:
There's a time in every life
When we've got to realize
That there
are some things in this world
That we can't do
And there's a time in
every heart
In every woman, man or child
When the pressures seem to
get
The best of you
I know of one who handles problems
He's a
burden bearing friend
And there is nothing in this world
He cannot
do
So take those burdens that you are bearing
And release them to
the Lord
I guarantee you
He will make you feel brand new
Chorus:
So take your burdens to the Lord (Take it to the Lord when
you need a better friend)
He's a burden bearing friend (Burdens go away
when the Lord is here to stay)
Take your burdens to the Lord (Take it
to the Lord, there's no better friend than He)
On His love you can
depend (Fully lean upon His everlasting arms)
Take your burdens to the
Lord (Take it to the Lord and you'll never be afraid)
Don't you fear
and please don't doubt (Doubts and fears today they can only cloud the
way)
Take your burdens to the Lord (Take it to the Lord, won't you take
it right away)
He will help you work them out (Today)
When your youthful days are fading
And your sight is growing
dim
And the health you had before
You can't regain (health is almost
gone)
When each day seems like forever
With the problems of old
age
And it's hard to smile 'cause your body
Is filled with pain
My Jesus knows your every burden
And He knows what you can
bear
So don't you feel that you
Are out there on your own
He can
help you if you will let Him
He is waiting there for you
He'll be a
friend who will never
Leave you all alone
Repeat Chorus
Scriptural Reference:
"Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens." Psalm 68:19

Scott
Lyrics:
Do you ever wonder
'Bout the purpose for your life?
Should I be
content to know
That I am someone's wife?
Sometimes it feels that
I
Just might have been left out
But when I read the Word of God
I
lose all of my doubt
I see that Lydia was a merchant
Who took good care of
Paul
Priscilla was Italian
With a missionary call
Deborah was a
prophet
And a judge of all the land
And Mary raised the Son of
God
And now I understand
I know that
Chorus:
God loves women
We're part of the plan he made
Part of
his theology
God loves women
The perfect companion
'Cause that's
what we're meant to be
God loves women
How can you question?
Just
take a look at history
God loves women
He'll never abandon
I know
He'll make a path for me
God can do all things
That's one thing I know
But all those women
lived
Several thousand years ago
It makes me wonder
If He'll use
me just the same
But everything is possible
When done in Jesus' name
Remember Tabitha had passed away
Till peter said "arise"
And
Rahab had a faith in God
And hid the Jewish spies
Esther saved the
Israelites
And Phoebe served God well
And Sarah lived a
century
Before the Lord prevailed
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
I know that God has blessed me
So much more than just a
wife
Who else could take a seed
And give the miracle of life?
Repeat Chorus
God loves women (oh yes He does)
We're part of the plan he
made
Part of his theology
God loves women (and so do we)
The
perfect companion
'Cause that's what we're meant to be
God loves
women (you better believe)
How can you question?
Just take a look at
history
God loves women (well don't you know)
God loves women

"In a loud voice she exclaimed: 'Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you will bear!'" Luke 1:42
