People smile at me and ask me what it is
That makes them want to be just like I am
So I just point to you and tell them, yes it's true
I'm no special one, I'm just one man
It's because of you
People smile at me and say, what a lucky guy
It's because of you
I can raise my hands and reply
And say I'm happy because of you
Now people just can't believe,
that my life used to be
Something that no one had any use for
I'd stay at home each night, never shine the light
And I thank you, it will never be like beforeI
t's because of you
People point at me and say I like what that boys got
And because of you
I confess I don't have a lot
But what I have is because of you
Now people smile at me and ask me what it is
That makes them want to be just like I am
So I just point to you and tell them, yes it's true
I'm no special one, I'm just one man
It's because of you
People smile at me and they say, what a lucky guy
It's because of youI can raise my hands to the sky
And say I'm only happy because of you

Do you see, do you see
All the people sinking down
Don't you care, don't you care
Are you gonna let them drown
How can you be so numb
Not to care if they come
You close your eyes
And pretend the job's done
"Oh bless me Lord, bless me Lord
"You know it's all I ever hear
No one aches, no one hurts
No one even sheds one tear
But He cries, He weeps, He bleeds
And He cares for your needs
And you just lay back
And keep soaking it in,
Oh, can't you see it's such a sin?
Cause He brings people to you door,
And you turn them awayAs you smile and say,
"God bless you, be at peace"
And all heaven just weeps
Cause Jesus came to you door
You've left him out on the streets
Open up open up
And give yourself away
You see the need,
you hear the cries
So how can you delay
God's calling and you're the one
But like Jonah you run
He's told you to speak
But you keep holding it in,
Oh can't you see it's such a sin?
The world is sleeping in the dark
That the church just can't fight
Cause it's asleep in the light
How can you be so dead
When you've been so well fed
Jesus rose from the grave
And you, you can't even get out of bed
Oh, Jesus rose from the dead
Come on, get out of your bed
How can you be so numb
Not to care if they come
You close your eyes
And pretend the job's done
You close your eyes
And pretend the job's done
Don't close your eyes
Don't pretend the jobs done
Come away, come away, come away with Me my love,
Come away, from this mess, come away with Me, my love
All the people sinking down
Don't you care, don't you care
Are you gonna let them drown
How can you be so numb
Not to care if they come
You close your eyes
And pretend the job's done
"Oh bless me Lord, bless me Lord
"You know it's all I ever hear
No one aches, no one hurts
No one even sheds one tear
But He cries, He weeps, He bleeds
And He cares for your needs
And you just lay back
And keep soaking it in,
Oh, can't you see it's such a sin?
Cause He brings people to you door,
And you turn them awayAs you smile and say,
"God bless you, be at peace"
And all heaven just weeps
Cause Jesus came to you door
You've left him out on the streets
Open up open up
And give yourself away
You see the need,
you hear the cries
So how can you delay
God's calling and you're the one
But like Jonah you run
He's told you to speak
But you keep holding it in,
Oh can't you see it's such a sin?
The world is sleeping in the dark
That the church just can't fight
Cause it's asleep in the light
How can you be so dead
When you've been so well fed

And you, you can't even get out of bed
Oh, Jesus rose from the dead
Come on, get out of your bed
How can you be so numb
Not to care if they come
You close your eyes
And pretend the job's done
You close your eyes
And pretend the job's done
Don't close your eyes
Don't pretend the jobs done
Come away, come away, come away with Me my love,
Come away, from this mess, come away with Me, my love

Altar Call
Altar Call
You know I can't explain to you really how He does it.
but He proved himself to me in such a holy way, such a complete way
that I'd die for that faith, and I'd die for that belief,
because it's more than just a belief
because He lives in my heart, and that's the only proof,
that's the only proof that I can give you, cause He lives in my heart.
Those people who knew me before didn't know
that I could believe something so strong.
The Gospel is simple this, Jesus will forgive all your sins,
if you will come to Him humbly,
lay down at His feet and say, "You're the Lord, and
I'll follow You the rest of my life on Earth, so that I can
have the rest of eternity with You, and the glory of Your Father
Most people don't find out till it's too late,
that someone has to pay the price.
You can pay it yourself (hah) or let someone else,
but who would be that nice,
To pay a debt that isn't his, oh I know someone like that,
and he's your best friend, he really is, he really loves you.
Most people don't find out till their half dead, that they need another life.
You say you've heard everything that's ever been said
about The Way, The Truth, The Life.
You say you've heard lot of preaching all before, so many times,
but did you ever open up your door, give Him a chance to prove Himself?
Well He's real you know!
I hope you find out before it's too late, that there's nobody else
You know it's breaking His heart, the longer you wait,
cause you've only been lying to yourself
Cause no one believes a thing you say - NOT EVEN YOU!
You know you're gonna find out that He's the way,
no matter which way you choose,
But I pray you find out by His love for you.
Some people won't find out till it's too late
Some people won't find out till it's too late
Will you all bow your heads with me........

Don't You Wish You Had The Answers
Don't You Wish You Had The Answers
Look out your window, see the earth.
Where did it come from, who gave it birth.
Where did it come from, where will it go, where will it go?
Don't you wish you had the answers, well, I know.
See how the rain falls, who made the sky?
It's never ending, and you wonder why.
Where did it come from, where will it go, where will it go?
Don't you wish you had the answers, well I know.
Just look out past the stars, look to the one who put them there.
He, He made them all, and He gave them to us to share.
Yes He made them all, and He's gonna take them all back someday.
Don't you just wonder, what lies ahead?
There's peace in knowing, what Jesus said.

Rushing Wind
Rushing Wind
Rushing wind blow through this temple,
Blowing out the dust within,
Come and breathe your breath upon me,
I've been born again.
Holy Spirit, I surrender, take me where you want to go,
Plant me by your living water,
Plant me deep so I can grow.
Jesus, you’re the one, who sets my spirit free,
Use me Lord, glorify, your Holy Name through me.
Separate me from this world Lord.
Sanctify my life for you.
Daily change me to your image,
Help me bear good fruit.
Every day you're drawing closer.
Trials come to test my faith.
But when all is said and done Lord,
You know, it was worth the wait.
Jesus, you’re the one, who set my spirit free,
Use me Lord, glorify, your Holy Name through me.
Rushing wind blow through this temple,
Blowing out the dust within,
Come and breathe your breath upon me,
For I've been born again.

Dear John Letter (To The Devil)
Dear John Letter (To The Devil)
Oh, I used to love you, but now that's hard to do,
Cause I got some information about the evil things at night that you do.
Now the whole thing is through, we're through.
Oh, you're such a devil, how'd you get me to believe you were true, oooh.
Oh my momma warned me, and how my daddy cried,
The day I left my home you said you'd always keep me satisfied,
But oh, how you lied, you lied.
Well I should have heard my momma's words,
But then I guess I had too much pride, original sin.
I used to lie away at night and see your face on the ceiling,
Oh, what a bad feeling, I have when I think of how you almost got me,
In the ways of the world, in the ways of the world.
My so called friends say I've misjudged you, my anger's all in vain,
But I'm afraid you got to them before I had the chance to explain,
And it caused me such pain, ouch.
Cause they were such good friends of mine, but now you've got them,
Playing your game, you creep.
Whoa, I used to lie awake at night and see your face on the ceiling,
What a bad feeling I have when I think of how you almost got me
In the ways of the world, in the ways of the world, oh in the ways of the world.
Well, I believe in Jesus, and what He said He's gonna do,
Put and apple in your lying mouth and cook you in a sulfur stew,
Whew, one that will never be through, is it soup yet, no.
Oh but if He hadn't rescued me then I'd be down there cooking too.
Oh, if Jesus hadn't rescued me then I'd be cooking right next to you.
Oooh, I used to lie awake at night and see your face on the ceiling,
Ha, Ha, what a great feeling I have when I think of how you're gonna get yours,
At the end of the world, at the end of the world, oh at the end of the world,
At the end of the world, yes, at the end of the world.
Oh, I used to love you, but now that's hard to do,
Cause I got some information about the evil things at night that you do.
Now the whole thing is through, we're through.
Oh, you're such a devil, how'd you get me to believe you were true, oooh.

At the end of the world, yes, at the end of the world.
I Can't Wait To Get To Heaven
I Can't Wait To Get To Heaven
You know, I look around at the world and I see all the beauty that God made. I see the forest and the trees and all the things. And says in the Bible that He made them is six days and I don't know if they're a literal six days or not. Scientists would say no, some theologians would say yes. But I know that Jesus Christ has been preparing a home for me and for some of you, for two thousand years. And if the world took six days and that home two thousand years, hey man, this is like living in a garbage can compared to what's going on up there.
Seaside sunset, silver linings round the clouds,
Birds fly, singing, making such a joyful sound.
Thoughts of heaven somehow seem to fill my mind,
But I can't even imagine, what it is I'm gonna find.
I can't wait to get to Heaven, when you'll wipe away all my fears.
In six days you created everything,
but you've been working on Heaven two thousand years.
Deep green forests, mountains reaching for the sky,
Grasslands and deserts, your creation fills my eye.
Thank you, thank you Jesus, though this beauty is just a taste,
Of all your glory I'll see when I pass through those gates.
I can't wait to get to Heaven, when you'll wipe away all my fears.
In six days you created everything,
