Lyrics:
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I
once was lost, but now am found
Was blind, but now I see!
Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears
relieved!
Well how precious did that grace appear
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!

Lyrics:
Sing a song, say a prayer
Have we forgotten what we’re doing
here
Does anybody really even care
Is this what worship is?
Quiet
time on your knees
Begging to the father hear my plea
Forgive my
sinful tendencies
Is this what worship is?
Chorus:
Worship with your life
Keep it shining bright
So they
can see the love inside
Worship with your life
Go to church and do your best
But have we forgot about the
rest
I think it’s time for us to confess
Is this what worship
is?
We take the bread and the vine
Does the Savior even cross your
mind?
Are you merely putting in your time?
Is this what worship
is?
Bridge:
Do we focus on appearances
Acting like we’re so
devout
Or are we looking on the inside
That’s what loves
about
That’s what loves about
Repeat Chorus (x3)

Lyrics:
Chorus:
His tender mercies rest upon me
Though I'll never be
worthy of it all (worthy of it all)
He has shown His grace and someday
I'll see His face
And His tender mercies will upon me fall
Each day I'll strive a little harder (strivin' harder)
Wanting to be
more like Him
Wanting to do more than barely make it
Certain that
when my life ends
Repeat Chorus
Having tried and having fallen (I keep on fallin')
He picks me up
without complaint
Knowing I won't reach perfection
’Til I see those
pearly gates
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
I know, I know I don't deserve what I've been given
So I
need to share with you (share with you)
Repeat Chorus
They will fall (fall, fall, fall), they will fall (fall, fall,
fall)
They will fall (fall, fall, fall), they will fall (fall, fall,

Lyrics:
Sometimes I can't hear His voice, I'm just not listening
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 (in silence I
can hear His voice, it comes in strong, it comes in clear)
Sometimes it
comes in loud and clear, sometimes I'm just not listening (sometimes I
can't hear His voice, I'm just 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 (the message
coming) through
Please take my heart and amplify the love I have (the
love I have) for you
Please take my heart and amplify the love I have (the love I have) for
you
Sometimes I can't hear His voice, I'm just not
listening
Sometimes I can't hear His voice, I'm just not listening

Hallelujah,
hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah (glory hellelujah)
Chorus:
Glory Hallelujah look what God is doing through
you
Angels are singing when the saints are bringing
Praise and
adoration from each and every nation
Glory hallelu look what God
can do
Jordan, Israel and France, Russia and Afghanistan
Zimbabwe and
Cameroon
Children in Romania, souls in Ethiopia
Longing to hear the
news
How can they hear (how can they hear) unless their told?
We
must share (we must share) the hope that we know
It's up to you (it's
up to you) to tell them what God can do
Repeat Chorus
Satan trembles when he sees the weakest saint down on his
knees
'Cause Heaven knows the power of prayer
Comfort when I feel
afraid, a light when I have lost my way
Lifting burdens that
I bear
You're always on my (you're always on my) heart and mind
I
know you pray (I know you pray) for me and I
Hope you know (I hope you
know) you've shown me what God can do (what my God can do)
Repeat Chorus
People living in the streets, longing for some food to eat
Starving
for somebody to care
When a child cries in the night, is someone there
to show the light
And let them know God is there
How can they see
(how can they see) unless their shown
Can they find (can they
find) God's love all alone
It's up to you (it's up to you) to tell
them what God can do (what my God can do)
Repeat Chorus
Angels are singing redemption's sweet song

Lyrics:
I've a request to make if I could dear Lord
It makes me ache to see
the way we quarrel
We've got so much to do (tell the world)
We've
got to tell the world about you (tell the world)
And if you could only
see us through tomorrow
Chorus:
We've got brothers fighting brothers
And sisters who
don't even talk (it's not the way)
And I know it's not the way you
planned our walk together here
We've got to help each other or we're
never going to make it there
I'm begging you please (begging you
please), on my knees (on my knees)
Humbly
We're fighting over little things, it's doing nobody good
Tell me
why can't we stop judging one another
It comes down to love (down to
love)
And being more like you (it comes down to love)
So that we can
all be one and love each other
Bridge:
Jesus wept over Jerusalem and I'm crying out today
I
don't what else I can do but pray
Repeat Chorus
While we fight amongst ourselves the whole world goes by (keeps passing
by)
And most of them don't know the name of Jesus (Jesus)
It's got
to start with you
And it's got to start with me
I'm begging you
please
Humbly

Lyrics:
I was playing tag outside with some kids down the street
Didn’t
notice it was getting dark; heard her call for me
Chorus 1:
Hurry home, I’ve been waiting here for you
Hurry home,
there’s so much we’ve got to do
The light is on, the table’s
set, and I’ve been worried half to death
Waiting here for you so
hurry home
Years later I went off to school, I couldn’t wait to leave
Missing
home when I called her up, here’s what she said to me
Repeat Chorus 1
Got the call, it was almost noon, they said you’d better run
Her
body had just given out, she asked to see her son
As I stood there
silently, stroked her hair and felt her leave
Thought I could here my
momma plead
Chorus 2:
Hurry home, I’ve been waiting here for you
Hurry home,
there’s so much we’ve got to do
The light is on, the table’s
set, don't be worried 'bout my death
I'll be waiting here for you
so hurry home
The light is on, the table’s set, don't be worried about
death
I'll be waiting here when you get home
I'll be
waiting here when you get home

Lyrics:
If there were no you
If there were no you
Chorus:
If there were no you my songs would be in vain
If there
were no you my skies would all be gray
No hope of life could be found
and there would be no sight, no sound
There would be no love if there
were no you
They question whether Jesus was God’s Son
They even asked Him long
ago with all that He had done
Who gave you authority? My Father who has
sent me
He gave His life and proved He was the one
Repeat Chorus
Now I’ve read where the stone was rolled away
The tomb was sealed
and secured, then on the third day
He is risen as he said, He’s alive
no longer dead
Since He lives we rejoice and say
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
For without you life would have no meaning
And without
you I’d have never known
Amazing grace was for a wretch like me
If
there were no you, how could heaven be my home?
Repeat Chorus
I know that there would be no love if there were no you
Scriptural Reference:
"Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary
Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from
the entrance." John 20:1
"Here is a trustworthy saying that
deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save
sinners--of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was
shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might
display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe
on him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal,
invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever.
Amen." 1 Timothy 1:15-17

Lyrics:
I will call you friend
Chorus 1:
I call you friend (you can call me friend)
The
time we spend together goes so fast
Until the end (til the very
end)
In Heaven we know the time will last
God brings together two people of a kind
Through stormy weather
(stormy weather) a knot is tied that binds
The hearts of friends who
need a listening ear
A shoulder to share a fallen tear (a fallen
tear)
I call you friend
Repeat Chorus 1
A friend is chosen, coincidence it seems
But hearts keep closer
(hearts keep closer), the memories they bring
Though miles may separate
us, we’re never far apart
We share a special feeling in our hearts
(down in our hearts)
I call you friend
Repeat Chorus 1
When I feel helpless and no one can be found
His words remind me (He
reminds me) He’ll never let me down
He picks me up when life just isn’t
fair (life is so unfair)
When hope is gone He still will hear my prayer
(He hears my prayer)
He calls me friend
Repeat Chorus 1
Chorus 2:
I call you friend (you can call me friend)
Forever
in my heart you will remain
Until the end (til the very end)
In
Heaven I know we'll meet again
In Heaven I know we’ll meet again

Chorus 1:
Teach me, Lord (teach me Lord), to hear your voice (hear
your voice)
And to listen when you call (when you call)
And as you
take me stone (as you take me stone) by stone (stone by
stone)
There will be no wall (there will be no wall) at all
This wall I’ve built stands firm and tall
Protects me from my
feelings and my failures great and small
And even though sometimes I
hide behind this wall
This fortress makes it hard to hear when my
Father calls
Repeat Chorus 1
When friends you love are hard to find
The world seems to hit you,
attacking from all sides
We start to build a wall with stones of fear
and pride
The spirit longs to intercede, our cries from inside
Repeat Chorus 1
So Jesus take this wall from me
Remove each stone that I have placed
so carefully
With gentle hands the Great I Am will set me free
Then
this wall will crumble down and I’ll be released
Chorus 2:
So teach me, Lord (teach me Lord), to hear your voice
(hear your voice) (I want to hear your voice)
And to listen (and to
listen) when you call (when you call) (listen when you call)
And as you
take me stone (as you take me stone) by stone (stone by stone) (every
stone will fall)
There will be no wall (there will be no wall) at
all
As you take me stone (as you take me stone) by stone (stone by
stone)
There will be no wall (there will be no wall) at all

He is the truth, life, and way
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 surgeon
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
Bridge:
He is the truth, life, and way (more than a teacher,
more than a carpenter) (no run of the mill, no run of the mill)
He is
the truth, life, and way (more than a teacher, more than a carpenter)
(more than a man, He was more than a man)
He is the truth, life, and
way (more than a teacher) (no run of the mill)
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

And while I'm on my

"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

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

dry land. Then the word of the Lord came to Jonah a second

Nineveh. Now Nineveh was a very important city-a visit required
three days." Jonah 2:10-3:3

Lyrics:
Woke up Sunday morning, I looked at the time
Wake up, Honey, it’s
almost twenty past nine
And we’re late (too late, too late) for church
today
I’ve got those Satan’s been riding me so hard blues
Got into the car, everything seemed fine
Looked at my speedometer I
was doing ninety-nine
And it’s so hard (too fast, too fast), see the
lights in my rearview mirror
Now Satan’s out to get you brother, so you
better take care
Sitting along side the road, policeman says "hi"
Look and there’s my
elders and my deacons driving by
And it’s so hard (got caught, got
caught), don’t know what I’m going to do
I’ve got those Satan’s been
riding me so hard blues
Finally got to church, headed for my assigned pew
Looked and there’s
a visitor sitting where I’m supposed to
It’s so hard (get off my pew),
don’t know what I’m going to do
I’ve got those Satan’s been riding me
so hard blues
Preacher started preaching, his topic that day
Talking about gossip,
then he looked my way
And it’s so hard (paranoia, paranoia), about to
drive me insane
Now when it comes to your tongue sister, you’ve got to
keep a tight rein
Invitation was given, thirty stood for the call
Instead
of going forward they just headed to the mall
And it’s so
hard (shopping shopping, shopping shopping), don’t know what I’m going to
do
I’ve got those Satan’s been riding me so hard blues
Now wait a minute...
Now I’ve got a Savior, He bled and he died
(that's right)
He’s always standing, right here by my side (yes)
And
I’m going to praise Him, until the day that I die
Then He’s going to
take me to that mansion in the sky
And It’s so easy (hallelujah,
hallelujah) I know what I’m going to do
You know I’m gonna praise
the Lord...How about you?

Lyrics:
Spoken Vocal: "How about this?"
Never say goodbye
Never say goodbye
Never say goodbye
Spoken Vocal: "I like that, what about this. Wanna add the tenor? Sure."
Never say goodbye (never say, we'll never say no)
Never say goodbye
(we'll never say, we'll never say no)
(We'll) Never say goodbye
Spoken Vocal: "Donja, you take the top"
Never say goodbye (never say, we'll never say no)
Never say goodbye
(we'll never say, we'll never say no)
(We'll) Never say goodbye
Spoken Vocal: "Do that together"
Chorus:
Never say goodbye (never say (no), we'll never say
no)
Never say goodbye (we'll never say (no), we'll never say
no)
(We'll) Never say goodbye (never say goodbye)
When the journey's
over (never say (no), we'll never say no)
We won't have to cry
(we'll never say (no), we'll never say no)
Cause we'll never say
goodbye (never say goodbye)
Down here below the trials come and they beat me down everyday (trials
everyday)
But we know that a day will come when the Savior will take us
away (take us all away)
Where we'll...
Repeat Chorus
Now I've got friends and they don't know that Jesus is the way (Jesus
is the way)
It's up to me to make it known that there will come a day
(there will come a day)
Where we'll...
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Don't you want to come with me a sweet reunion there will
be
And every eye will all be dry, we'll never say goodbye
Come
along and join with me, we'll praise the Lord eternally
We'll
shout and sing with Him on high, we'll never say goodbye, never say
goodbye
Repeat Chorus (x2)
Repeat Chorus (background only)
