I Cry for My People
04:49
|
|||
Woe is me
I'm torn right through the heart
Nobody here knows what's going on
But I cry for my people
Suddenly
I don't know where I am
All I've known is based on shifting sand
But I cry for my people
I cry for my people
Take these whips
From off my brothers' backs
I am gone there is no turning back
But I cry for my people
I cry for my people

Listen to the Preacher
04:07
|
|||
Hey
Come and hear the lesson for today
Reading from the word I hear him say
Put your hand upon the plough
Plant your seed and till your ground
The husbandman has sacrificed the Lamb
Let us come and listen to the preacher
Let it be with joy
Take to heart the words of the teacher
Let it be with joy
Hey
How does it feel when the arrow flies
Though you're scared be prepared to die
To lay your life down for your friends
To be faithful till the end
Till the moment when the trumpet sounds
Hey
From Babylon to the promised land
Heathen empires melted into sand
From political upheaval
Corruption good and evil
Take the sword and put your armour on

Shiloh
03:39
|
|||
We spend our days as a tale that is told
And we grow old quickly as the wind blows cold
Shiloh
And the waters ebb and the waters flow
But here shall your proud waves be stayed
Shiloh
And the sun will rise and the sun will set
But here is the story that I love best
Shiloh
And the wind it did howl and the waves they did roar
And he calmed them all
And the multutudes came and they cried in their pain
And he healed them all
And the birds and the bees and the watermelon trees
The beast in his lair and the fish in the sea
Shiloh
And the moon and the tides and the stars in the sky
The spark of the fire and the seed that is sown
Shiloh
But they nailed him fast and they hung him high
They spat on him and then denied
Shiloh
But with piteous eye he looked on them
And said father forgive they don't know why
All will come to be revived

Born to be Holy
03:20
|
|||
Mighty like a warrior
In the heat of battle
Called to be a witness
To the great I am
Humble like a servant
Standing with the meek
Gentle as a dove
Comforting the weak
Born to be holy
To the Lord
Written in the scripture
That cannot be broken
Written on the tablets
Of flesh and stone
Glory in the highest
The angels cry his name
Only the righteous
Will remain
My God you're beautiful
Sleeper awake
My God incredible
Glory awaits

Doctor
04:20
|
|||
I wanna see the doctor
I wanna see him now
I wanna see the doctor
I wanna see him now
My great physician heals the sick
The lost he came to save
So they took me to the doctor
For the touch of his healing hands
Yeah they took me to the doctor
For the touch of his healing hands
Brethren put your hands to the plough
Give the healing a chance
Doctor doctor will you come and save me?
He inclined and heard my cry
Doctor doctor will you come and save me?
He inclined and heard my cry
Took me in his loving arms
Made me understand
Can I take you to the doctor
Can I take you to him now?
Can I take you to the doctor
Can I take you to him now?
It’s a sick and sorry world out there
And it needs a doctor now
I was crippled I was blind
I was ignorant as well
I was crippled I was blind
I was ignorant as well
Brethren change your minds
Heed the tolling bell

Even So

Brother John got the revelation
A long time ago
Saw the world and the desolation
Of the seven woes
Brother John saw the saviour standing
With the seven stars
With the seven golden lampstands
Giving light afar
Hey hey hey hey
It’s a heavy heavy load
It’s a heavy heavy load
Brother John spoke to the saviour
Wrote it in a book
Sent it off to the seven churches
Said take a look
Saw famine plague and fire
Down here below
Saw war and the angels flying
Where the four winds blow
As every tribe will wail on account of him
Even so amen
Every tribe will wail on account of him
Even so even so even so
Amen
Hear the sound of the fig leaves falling
When the mountains shake
Hear the sound of the fig leaves falling
When the earth it quakes
Once more I shake the heavens
Till the stars fall down
Once more I shake the earth
And open up the ground
Have you heard the news today
Have you seen the signs
Have you heard the news today
Have you seen the signs?
Here comes the horseman
Riding faithful and true
His robe dipped in blood
Making all things new

Too Weary to Repent
04:22
|
|||
Too weary to repent
When your last breath is spent
And you wake up it will be judgment day
And every eye will surely see
The throne of majesty
When you wake up it will be judgment day
I went out to play indulging without shame
Till I heard his word and had to draw aside
And listen to the voice I heard speak to me
Beckoning to me forsake your way
I communed with my own heart
There were battles from the start
But nothing new is there under the sun
Moses Joshua Ruth David Daniel Paul
Fought battles long and hard for the Lord
Children hear me now the wind blows fair and foul
For those who are for and for those who are against
But on this road there is light sweetness and delight
That I know will never pass away

Nobody But You
03:55
|
|||
Who will save me
Wretched man that I am
From the body of this death
Who will lend me their hand?
Who will free me
From this freedom to die
Wrap their arms around me
Make me touch the sky?
Nobody but you
Nobody but you
Who will lead me
Dust and ashes I am
From the belly of the earth
To the heavenly land?
Who'll bequeath me
The spirit of life
And speak clearly of it
Not run and take flight?
Nobody but you
Nobody but you
Every day a little
Every step a little
Every dawn a little
Closer
With every breath a little
Every prayer a little
Every tear a little
Closer to you

Sailor

Sailor
Go where the wind blows
Sailor
Follow the stars
Sailor
Go where the wind blows go follow the stars to their heaven
Going now
Going to the new world
Going now
Off to new lands
Where are they?
Over the ocean that laps at the fringes of heaven
Sea saw
The dragon will roar
Across the sea upon every shore
But I will sing you a new song
Of the shore you’ve been laid down upon
When the silence comes
Falling on your heart
Like the water runs
Honestly
In the still hot sun
What will become when the ship loses sight of the shore?
Destiny
For all who assail her
Destiny
On the quivering wave
Rage and ruin
For all of the Jonahs cast to the cauldron for calm
Leviathan raised up his head and writhed enraged
Were all of our hopes to be splintered and dashed and flayed?
But how we fled
Away from the darkness
As one we hauled
The ropes and the sails
The wind it blew
And we escaped the mouth of Abbaddon’s cave
But the storm howled on
For days upon days
And we sang this song
To comfort our hearts
We were alive
But the darkness was long and the ship was falling apart
Colours forming sweeping soaring
Light is being born

Joy Down By The river
04:46
|
|||
Way down by the river
The Holy Ghost will wash your sins away
He waits by the river
For the lost come what may
There's joy down by the river
Joy down by the river
Get your soul deliverance today
There's joy down by the river
Joy down by the river
Come along and hear now what I say
I went to the river
Early on a sunlit morn
Engulfed in the river
The dove alights like flocks new shorn
Come to the river
The waters flow from high above
Drink of the river
Sacred water and lifeblood
Ah hear now what I say
Lord hear me when I pray
Ah hear now what I say
Lord hear me when I pray
Be washed in the river
Joy is all that will remain
Believe at the river
There's no pride no guilt no shame

I don't wanna' weep like a fallen angel
I don't wanna' cry bitter tears as I fall and kiss the ground
I don't wanna' lie in the arms of strangers
Any minute now could be the last one that you know
Your enemy's deceit and betrayal
Your enemy will masquerade as an angel of light
I don't wanna' rage and lose the battle
Take comfort in the dark underneath a canopy of lies
This is the rise and fall
The rise and fall
The rise and fall of Babylon
Haunted in the graveyard of the forest
Through the concrete canyons and the pock marks of the earth
Drunk upon the fruit of the sweet deception
Look upon the destiny of the secular world
Will anybody hear her cry for mercy
Will anybody hear her cry in the rivers of blood?
Surely goodness and mercy will follow
Who is there like Jonah in the whale
Who is there to call upon us mercy from above?
Now the fields are dry and the flocks be barren
The children cry for want the philosophies have failed
Oh that I might rest in the day of trouble
My knees are trembling for the finger on the wall

When My Time Has Come
03:47
|
|||
When my time has come
When my time has come
I’ll be resting in the blessing
When my time has come
If I see it through
If I see it through
No more crying with angels flying
If I see it through
I’ll be singing glory
Glory hallelujah
When I recount the story
With my every breath
See it through
See it through
Rachel crying for her children
Because they are no more
Who will dry her tears
Who will cleanse her sores?
They are no more
They are no more
Onward to Zion
We will be marching
Songs of salvation
Will be heard across this land

We Shall Meet Again
04:20
|
|||
Clear is the water
That flows in the river
Of life
Nothing impure
We shall meet again
Clear are the eyes
That see the vision
No indecision
No division
We shall meet again
Though we say goodbye
Banish sorrow
And we’ll meet in the clouds
All must give an answer
For the deeds done in the body

Precious Jesus
03:14
|

Precious Jesus
Guide my footsteps
Lead this pilgrim home
Through temptation
Joy and sorrow
Everywhere I go
Earth and all her glory will have nothing to compare
With the glory of the saints come marching home
For my body
It grows tired
But the Spirit's strong
And time goes quickly
A million miles
Have come and gone
Precious Jesus
I love you
You lead me on
And in my hour of doubt and darkness
My strength my song
