THE HEART THAT WAS BROKEN FOR ME

The Heart That Was Broken For Me

There came from the skies
In the days long ago
The Lord with a message of love
The world knew Him not
He was treated with scorn
This wonderful Gift from above

   They crowned Him with thorns
   He was beaten with straps
   He was wounded and nailed to the tree
   But the pain in His heart
   Was the hardest to bear
   The heart that was broken for me

He came to His own
To his owners He loved
The sheep that had wandered astray
They heard not His voice
But the Friend of mankind
Was halted and driven away

I will take up my cross
I will walk by His side
For the pathway of duty I see
I will follow my Lord
And abide in His heart
The heart that was broken for me

HE WILL SET YOUR FIELDS ON FIRE

He Will Set Your Fields On Fire

There's a call that rings from the throne it springs
To those now gone astray
Saying "Come ye men from your load of sin
There at the alter lay"
Many do not heed that the chains of greed
that their conscience never tire
Be assured my friend if you still offend
He will set your fields on fire

   Now if you don't from sin retire
   He will set your fields on fire
   You have heard Jesus' call
   And in death your soul must fall
   Now my friend if you desire
   You may join the heavenly choir
   And rejoice with him free from every sin
   When He sets this world on fire

You have heard his voice seen His soul rejoice
That trusted in his grace
You have blushed with sin as He knocked within
But still you hide your face
From the blessed Lord and His own true word
But still you say retire
Leave the downward path kindle not His wrath
Or He'll set your fields on fire

EVERYBODY WANTS TO GO TO HEAVEN

Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven

Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Lord I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna die
I long for the day that I'll have a new birth 'stead of grievin' here on earth
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die.

Once upon a time there was a man his name was Hezekiah
He walked with God both day and night but he didn't want to die
He cried Oh Lord, please let me live, oh, mend these broken bones
God smiled down on Hezekiah and gave him fifteen years to go.

When Jesus walked upon this earth he knew his father's friends
He knew that he must give his life to save the soul of man
When Judas had betrayed him his father heard his cry
He was brave enough unto his death but he didn't want to die.

Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown

IF YOU BELIEVE

If You Believe
I heard about how Paul and Silas were in Jail.
nobody there, nobody there would go their bail.
But when they prayed,
They knew that God was on their side,
That Jail House door swung open wide.

Chorus:
If you believe, you shall receive;
There's not a trouble or care
The good Lord can't relieve.
Oh, He is just the same today,
All you have to do is trust and pray
And believe, you must believe.

When Daniel stood within the Hungry Lions den,
Nobody thought that there was any hope for him.
But all night long the lions never took a bite:
God took away their appetite.

Chorus: (repeated)

When David stood before the giant with his sling,
Goliath laughed at such a puny little thing.
But David knew his faith in God would stand the test;
He flung the rock, God did the rest.

If you believe, you shall receive,
There's not a trouble or care
The good Lord can't relieve.
Oh, He is just the same today,
All you have to do is trust and pray,
And believe, you must believe!

DANIEL PRAYED

Daniel Prayed

Daniel Prayed

I heard about a man one day who wasted not his time away
He prayed to God every morning noon and night
He cared not for the things of man he trusted one who would not fail
Oh, Daniel prayed every morning, noon, and night

   Oh, Daniel served the living God while here upon this earth he trod
   He prayed to God every morning noon and night
   He cared not for the kings decree he trusted God to set him free
   And he prayed to God every morning, noon, and night

They cast him in the lion's den because he would not honor men
He prayed to God every morning noon and night
The jaws were locked and it made him shout, and God soon got them
safely out
Oh, Daniel prayed every morning, noon, and night

Now brother, let us watch and pray like Daniel did from day to day
He prayed to God every morning noon and night
We too can gladly daring do the things that God will take us through
Oh, Daniel prayed every morning, noon, and night

Cryin' Holy Unto The Lord

Lord I ain't no stranger now
Lord I ain't no stranger now
I've been introduced to the Father and the Son
Lord I ain't no stranger now

   Cryin' holy unto the Lord
   Cryin holy unto the Lord
   Lord if I could I surely would
   Stand on that rock where Moses stood

Sinners run and hide your face
Sinners run and hide your face
Run to the rocks and hide your face
The rocks won't have no hiding place
