Lyrics:
Chorus:
He was no run of the mill Messiah, walked the road to
Calvary
No average Savior, Jehovah, and Lord is the bread of life for
me
No run of the mill Messiah came back to life on the third day
As
He promised and said, so He lived and He bled, showing He was the truth,
life, and way
More that a prophet and more than just a preacher
He was a servant
sculpting souls with His hands
More than a carpenter, more than just a
teacher
More than an angel and more than a man
Repeat Chorus
Follow His sandleprints and see where they lead us
Smell the sawdust
of the carpenter's shop
See the one and only leper thanking Jesus
Of
Galilee and born of divine thought
Repeat Chorus
Once you have seen Him, a glimpse of the Savior
You'll long to see
Him each day
His words can help us change our behavior
Satan stay
out of our way
Repeat Chorus
No run of the mill Messiah

Lyrics:
O they tell me of a home far beyond the skies
O they tell me of a
home far away
And they tell me of a home where no storm clouds
rise
O they tell me of an unclouded day
Chorus:
O the land of cloudless day
O the land of an unclouded
sky
O they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise
O they tell
me of an unclouded day
O they tell me of a home where my friends have gone
O they tell me
of that land far away
Where the tree of life in eternal bloom
Sheds
its fragrance to the unclouded day
Repeat Chorus
O they tell me that He smiles on His children there
And His smile
drives their sorrows away
And they tell me that no tears ever come
again
In that lovely land of unclouded day
Repeat Chorus (x2)
O they tell me of an unclouded day

Lyrics:
Was it so very long ago you came to live on earth?
When will I ever
comprehend the value of the Savior's birth?
A man with rough, but gentle hands, a carpenter by trade
I want
so much to understand the sacrifice the Father gave
And in the silence I can hear a voice that calls to me
Sometimes it
comes in loud and clear, sometimes I'm just not listening
The rains have come, the winds have blown, and stronger for the storm I
stand
Amazing grace (amazing grace), I've come to know (I've come to
know) while clinging tightly to your hand
Lord, help me hear that voice inside, the message coming
through
Please take my heart and amplify the love I have for you
Please take my heart and amplify the love I have for you
Scriptural Reference:
"Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!" Psalm 66:20
Words and music: Danice Sweet
Lead: Charles Gardener
Lyrics:
Chorus:
You've got to go, go tell what the Lord has done for you (go
and tell it)
You've got to go, go tell what the Lord has done for you
(go and tell it)
His mercy never ends and He will always see you
through (He'll see you through)
You've got to go, go tell what the Lord
has done for you (go, done for you)
In Matthew, Mark, and Luke we find the story of the time when all the
water near the land of Gerasenes
The disciples were with Jesus when
they heard some awful moaning and the holler came from back behind
the trees
The man had lived among the tombs but chains could not subdue
him, but night and day he cut himself and cried
Right away the demons
knew the majesty among them for the Son of God was easily recognized
Repeat Chorus
The demons that were in him had become so panic stricken driving
him out of his right and normal mind
But the previous location must
have been so very awful 'cause they begged the Lord to put them in
the swine
The plan was not effective for the pigs began a-runnin' and
their destination was catastrophe
Once the stampede had got started
there was just know way to stop it and the pigs began to fly into the
sea
Repeat Chorus
The people of the region came to see the brand new Legion, out of
chains and acting like an average Joe
Sitting there beside the preacher
and with one outstanding feature - he was actually even wearing
clothes
But the people became frightened and began to plead with Jesus,
"We were better off before you even came"
But Legion begged to differ
and he wanted to go with him -the one who changed him from
lunatic to sain
Repeat Chorus (x2)
Scriptural Reference:
"Jesus did not let him, but said, 'Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.' So the man went away and began to tell in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And all the people were amazed." Mark 5:19-20

If you need to right
a wrong, don't wait til winter (don't wait til winter)
If you need to
atone, don't wait til winter (don't wait til winter)
Chorus:
The winds of winter blow so cold, no one will have time for
you when you're sick and old
If you want Christ to save your precious
soul, don't wait til winter (don't wait til winter)
If you need to make a change, don't wait til winter (don't wait til
winter)
If you die in your sins, Lord what a shame, don't wait til
winter (don't wait til winter)

The winds of winter make the warmest heart turn cold
You might not
even feel it should, the winds begin to blow
And if a sister has left the fold, don't wait til winter (don't wait
til winter)
You must go and try to gently bring her home, oh don't wait
til winter (don't wait til winter)
Repeat Chorus
Now if you need, need to come to Christ, don't wait til winter (don't

Lyrics:
I've, I've got something to tell that old
Low down, back slidin',
joy robbin' demonic disgrace
I'm gonna tell Him to move on outta my
face
Chorus:
Move Satan, move on out of my way
Move Satan, move on out
of my way
I said get ye behind me Satan, move on out of my way
Move
on out of my way (move, move, move) so I can pray
Old man Joel, he was a prayin' man (look now, hallelujah, look now,
hallelujah)
He became afflicted, oppressed by Satan's hand (look now,
hallelujah, look now, hallelujah)
He tried Joel, destroyed his
children, too (look now, hallelujah, look now, hallelujah)
If you have
faith in Him, he'll make a way for you (look now, hallelujah, look now,
hallelujah)
Repeat Chorus

When

Call on Jesus, anytime,

He will bear your burden, He will be right there

Move Satan, move on out of my

(move on out of my way, move on out of my way))

Company.
Lead: None
Lyrics:
On Zion's glorious summit stood
A numerous host redeemed by
blood
They hymned their King in strains divine
I heard the song and
strove to join
I heard the song and strove to join
Here all who suffered sword or flame
For truth, or Jesus' lovely
name
Shout victory now and hail the Lamb
And bow before the great I
Am
And bow before the great I Am
While everlasting ages roll
Eternal love shall feast their
soul
And scenes of bliss, forever new
Rise in succession to their
view
Rise in succession to their view
Sanctus:
Holy, holy, holy Lord
God of hosts, on high
adored
Who like me thy praise should sing
O Almighty King
Holy,
holy, holy Lord
God of hosts, on high adored
Holy, holy, holy
Scriptural Reference:
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty.” Isaiah 6:3

Lyrics:
Chorus:
It was His will (it was His will), His Son would suffer (His
Son would suffer)
It was His will (it was His will), He'd take the
blame
There simply could (could not be) not be another (no, not
one)
The lamb of God for us was slain
He had no special beauty, no attraction for to see
Nothing in His
appearance, no sign of majesty
Despised, also rejected by men He came
to save
Pierced for our transgression while showing us the way
(showing, showing us the way)
Repeat Chorus
Like sheep who've left the sheperd, each to His seperate way
The
lamb was led to slaughter, the priceless gift was paid
No word was said
in anger, no violence had He done
He bore the sins of many, the
Father's only Son (Father's, Father's only Son)
Repeat Chorus
Carrying our burdens all alone
The Father turned His head so sin
could be atoned
No one to the rescue, 'cause He was on His own
The
plan of man's salvation to unfold
Repeat Chorus
There simply could not be another
A lamb of God for us was
slain
Scriptural Reference:
"And he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment--to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ." Ephesians 1:9-10

(verses)
Lyrics:
Chorus:
I want to praise Him, I want to praise Him
Praising the
name of the one proclaimed His love
I will rejoice in Him, I will
rejoice in Him
Repeat Chorus
I have tried to praise Him each and every day (I want to praise you, I
want to praise you, I want to praise your name)
But my sinful mortal
mind keeps getting in the way (I want to praise you, I want to praise you,
you remain the same)
Holy Lord I'm offering myself unto you (I want to
praise you, I want to praise you, I want to praise your name)
With my
armor in its place, Satan can't get through (I want to praise you, I want
to praise you, you remain the same)
Repeat Chorus
Got to praise your mightiness, I'm here to confess (I want to praise
you, I want to praise you, I want to praise your name)
I could never
make it through, you're my holiness (I want to praise you, I want to
praise you, you remain the same)
Savior just the thought of you chills
me to the bone (I want to praise you, I want to praise you, I want to
praise your name)
In this awesome world you've made I won't stand
alone (I want to praise you, I want to praise you, you remain the
same)
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
May I ever praise you, may I know your peace
May you come
so quickly, all my doubts will cease
Repeat Chorus (x3)
I will rejoice in him

Lyrics:
I'm tired of livin' for Fridays, tired of dreadin' Mondays
So tired
of what this world considers right
I just want to make a difference as
I travel here below
I want somehow to let this whole world know
Chorus:
He's Lord of all (He's Lord of all) and Lord of me (and Lord
of me)
And Lord of everything I'm gonna be
Someday I'm gonna see Him
in a place I call home
Someday I'll humbly bow before His throne
If I can only show He loves them, I can show they need Him
If I can
show how much He's done for me
There'll be no way to stop them from
reaching for salvation
They'll be no way to stop loves overflow
Because...
Repeat Chorus
I will be made perfect, all my imperfections gone
The lamb who died
will occupy the throne
We'll all glorify Him, free at last from Satan's
wrong
We will all join in the victory's song
We'll sing...
Repeat Chorus
Someday I'm gonna meet Him in a place I call home
Someday I'll
humbly bow before His throne
Because He's Lord of all

"Well there I was sittin' on the beach one day soakin'
up the rays, man. When I looked out on the horizon and I noticed
this huge silhouette swiming towards me. And as it reached the beach
it spit out this gnarly little man. And He walked up to me and
said..."
"Hey. Hey. Hey man, which way is it to
Ninevah?"
"Ninevah? What was that thing man?"
"Man I just
checked out of the whale motel."
Well, man
Chorus:
It was a Whale Motel not even with a view, it was really
just a pit
After a three day stay, and prayin' night and day,
Jehovah made the big fish spit
Repeat Chorus
The sea was getting rougher and the sailors started sweating but the
didn't want poor Jonah to get wet
Jonah kept insisting that the sea
would stop its waving if they would throw him in with out a single net
Repeat Chorus
After crying to the Father, prayin' to Him in the water, the sailors
put poor Jonah overboard
Fearing for their innocence, they sacrificed
in self defense and seafood was provided by the Lord
Repeat Chorus
The first devotional where Jonah prayed was inside the catch of the day (of the day)
Repeat Chorus (x2)
Jehovah made the big fish spit
Jehovah made the big fish
spit
Jehovah made the big fish spit
Scriptural Reference:
"Then they cried to the Lord, 'O Lord, please do not let us die for
taking this man's life. Do not hold us accountable for killing an innocent
man, for you, O Lord, have done as you pleased. Then they took Jonah
and threw him overboard, and the raging sea grew calm. At this the
men greatly feared the Lord, and they offered a sacrifice to the Lord and
made vows to him. But the Lord provided a great fish to swallow
Jonah, and Jonah was inside the fish three days and three nights.
From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God." Jonah
1:14-2:1
"And the Lord commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto
dry land. Then the word of the Lord came to Jonah a second
time: 'Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the
message I give you. Jonah obeyed the word of the Lord and went to
Nineveh. Now Nineveh was a very important city-a visit required
three days." Jonah 2:10-3:3
