I'M THE LAMB THAT THE SHEPHERD LEFT THE FLOCK FOR

I'M THE LAMB THAT THE SHEPHERD LEFT THE FLOCK FOR 

So many times I strayed away from Jesus

As a lamb that leaves the flock without a care

And the time soon came when I'd gone too far and stumbled

And the more I tried the more I'd lose my way.

I'm the lamb that the Shepherd left the flock for

I was out in the cold all alone

So in need when Jesus found me

He put His arms around me

And I'll never be alone anymore

Now I tried to climb the mountains of this life and failed

I was thinking of myself and my own gain

But the Shepherd came and found me on the cliffs of sin

From that moment, life has never been the same

CHILD OF THE KING

CHILD OF THE KING

Once I was clothed in the rags of my sin
Wretched and poor lost and lonely within
But with wonderous compassion the King of all Kings
In pity and love took me under his wing.

Oh yes, oh yes, I'm a child of the King
His royal blood now flows in my veins
And I who was wretched and poor now can sing
Praise God Praise God I'm a child of the King.

--- Instrumental ---

Now I'm a child with a heavenly home
My holy father has made me his own
And I am cleansed by his blood and I'm clothed in his love
And someday I'll sing with the angels above.

Oh yes, oh yes, I'm a child of the King
His royal blood now flows in my veins
And I who was wretched and poor now can sing
Praise God Praise God I'm a child of the King...

ROCKING ALONE IN AN OLD ROCKING CHAIR

Rocking Alone in an Old Rocking Chair
recorded by Hank Snow                         [3/4 time]
written by Allen L. Carvell


 
C                   G7
Sitting alone in an old rockin' chair 
                         C
I saw an old mother with silvery hair
                           F
She seemed so neglected by those who should care 
G7                              C
Rocking alone in an old rockin' chair
 
                             G7
Her hands were calloused and wrinkled and old
                                  C
A life full of hard work were the story they told
                              F
And I've thought of angels as I saw her there 
G7                              C
Rocking alone in an old rockin' chair
 
                              G7
It wouldn't take much just to gladden her heart
                              C
Just some small re-embrace on somebody's heart
                            F
A letter would brighten her empty heart there 
G7                              C
Rocking alone in an old rockin' chair
 
                            G7
I know some youngsters in an orphan's home
                                 C
Would think they owned heaven if she were their own
                           F
They'd never be willing to let her sit there 
G7                              C
Rocking alone in an old rockin' chair
 
                    G7
I look at her and I think what a shame
                            C
The ones who forgot her she loves just the same
                         F
And I think of angels as I see her there 
G7                              C
Rocking alone in an old rockin' chair
G7                              C
Rocking alone in an old rockin' chair

SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER

Sweet Hour Of Prayer
Recorded by Hank Snow
written by William B. Bradbury and William Walford

G                          C
Sweet hour of prayer sweet hour of prayer
     G               D7
That calls me from a world of care
    G             C
And bids me at my Father's throne
     G                D7     G
Make all my wants and wishes known

   C             G
In seasons of distress and grief
   C              G       D7
My soul has often found relief
    G               C
And oft escaped the tempter's snare
   G                D7      G
By thy return sweet hour of prayer

                           C
Sweet hour of prayer sweet hour of prayer 
    G                       D7     
Thy wings shall my petition bear
   G                   C
To him whose truth and faithfulness 
  G                D7      G
Engage the waiting soul to bless

    C                G
And since he bids me seek his face 
  C                  G         D7 
Believe his word and trust his grace
     G              C
I'll cast on him my every care 
    G                   D7      G 
And wait for thee sweet hour of prayer

IT IS NO SECRET

It Is No Secret 

Jim Reeves 

The chimes of time ring out the news
Another day is through
Some one slipped and fell,
Was that someone you?

You may have longed for added strength
Your courage to renew
Do not be disheartened
I have news for you.

[Chorus:]
It is no secret what God can do,
What he has done for others,
He'll do for you.
With arms wide open,
He'll pardon you
It is no secret what God can do.

There is no night, for in His light 
You'll never walk alone.
You'll always feel at home wherever you may roam,
There is no power can conquer you, 
While God is on your side.
Take Him at His promise, 
Don't run away and hide.

[Chorus:]
It is no secret what God can do,
What he has done for others,
He'll do for you.
With arms wide open,
He'll pardon you.
It is no secret what God can do...

PAUL'S MINISTRY

Paul's Ministry 
Recorded by Kitty Wells
Written by William Travel
[3/4 time]

G                                           D7
The Lord said stand up Paul and dry up your tears
                                        G
You must preach My gospel for many long years
                               C
Go to Damascus the way that is straight
            G        D7                 G
You'll meet Ananias  and there you must wait

                                D7
I counted on Jonah I counted on Cain 
                                 G
I counted on Adam but he was the same
                                 C
I counted on Judas but he proved untrue
               G          D7              G
Oh go tell the world Paul I'm counting on you
 
                                             D7
Three days have gone by Lord and yet I don't see
                                          G
But here stands my brother a talking with me
                                     D7
He says brother Paul the Lord in the sky
               G        D7            G
Has sent me to heal you and open your eyes

                                               D7
I'll send you to the Gentiles I'll send you to Rome
                                         G
But Paul you must suffer till I call you home
                                                    C
You'll sleep in the desert you'll be wrecked out at sea
                  G         D7            G
But keep right on preaching My gospel for Me
