Lay your burdens at His feet
Lay your burdens at His feet

In His Presence
When the ship of life is tossed and turned
And I've done my selfish will
I wonder if He'll see my ply
And whisper "Peace be still."
Tears of gladness fill my eyes
When He reaches down for me
Till the billows have been surrendered
It's worth everything to me
In His presence, In His presence
I know He'll dry my tears according to His word
And I feel His mercy, gently surround me
Oh it's peaceful in the presence of the Lord
When He looks across this troubled land,
full of madness and despair
When He sees His wayward children
turn aside without a care
Jerusalem, Oh Jerusalem
Oft would I gather thee
In the safety of the kingdom
But you turned away from me.
In His presence, In His presence
I know He'll dry my tears according to His word
And I feel His mercy, gently surround me
Oh it's peaceful in the presence of the Lord
Oh its peaceful in the presence of the Lord, of the Lord
And I've done my selfish will
I wonder if He'll see my ply
And whisper "Peace be still."
Tears of gladness fill my eyes
When He reaches down for me
Till the billows have been surrendered
It's worth everything to me
In His presence, In His presence
I know He'll dry my tears according to His word
And I feel His mercy, gently surround me
Oh it's peaceful in the presence of the Lord
When He looks across this troubled land,
full of madness and despair
When He sees His wayward children
turn aside without a care
Jerusalem, Oh Jerusalem
Oft would I gather thee
In the safety of the kingdom
But you turned away from me.
In His presence, In His presence
I know He'll dry my tears according to His word
And I feel His mercy, gently surround me
Oh it's peaceful in the presence of the Lord
Oh its peaceful in the presence of the Lord, of the Lord

He's Everywhere
I see him in a baby's smile
I hear him in the wind that sighs
He loves me and I know not why
He's everywhere
He calls me from a world of care
I seek him and I find him there
He's in my heart I feel him there
He's everywhere
Through storms of fear and doubt I sailed
my eyes were blinded by a veil
I saw no beauty anywhere in anything
Then I drew near the cross
where he in pain and sorrow died for me
my veil was lifted and he taught my heart to sing
//I see him in a baby's smile
I hear him in the wind that sighs
He loves me and I know not why
He's everywhere
He calls me from a world of care
I seek him and I find him there
He's in my heart I feel him there
He's everywhere//
I hear him in the wind that sighs
He loves me and I know not why
He's everywhere
He calls me from a world of care
I seek him and I find him there
He's in my heart I feel him there
He's everywhere
Through storms of fear and doubt I sailed
my eyes were blinded by a veil
I saw no beauty anywhere in anything
Then I drew near the cross
where he in pain and sorrow died for me
my veil was lifted and he taught my heart to sing
//I see him in a baby's smile
I hear him in the wind that sighs
He loves me and I know not why
He's everywhere
He calls me from a world of care
I seek him and I find him there
He's in my heart I feel him there
He's everywhere//
Joshua
Author unknown
Sung by Larry Stephenson
The Lord told Joshua to go to Jericho,
And to march seven times around;
He followed faithfully the blessed Lord's command,
And the walls came tumbling down.
Then the walls - Then the walls - Then, the walls
Came tumbling down,
Joshua, Joshua, Joshua,
Marched seven times around;
Then the walls - oh the walls, oh the walls
Came tumbling down,
And the walls came tumbling down.
If you are trusting in the power of the blood
And you hope to wear a crown;
Go forward quickly, and obey the Holy Word,
Walls of doubt will tumble down.
Then the walls - Then the walls - Then, the walls
Came tumbling down,
Joshua, Joshua, Joshua,
Marched seven times around;
Then the walls - oh the walls, oh the walls
Came tumbling down,
And the walls came tumbling down.
Then the walls - Then the walls - Then, the walls
Came tumbling down,
Joshua, Joshua, Joshua,
Marched seven times around;
Then the walls - oh the walls, oh the walls
Came tumbling down,
And the walls came tumbling down.

Help Me Lord
I have a friend who walks beside me
All along the weary way
And as oft as I desire Him
He is there to show the way.
Help me Lord to bear my burdens
Help me Lord today I cry
And He answered "I am near thee
I will help but you must try."
When I am bold and go without Him
I am sure to lose the way
And I fall down in the chasms
And it's there I start to pray.
Help me Lord to bear my burdens
Help me Lord today I cry
And He answered "I am near thee
I will help but you must try."
So now I walk with my dear Savior
And the way glows brighter still
As I learn to walk beside Him
And to do His blessed will.

God Sent An Angel
I was troubled in my mind and had reached my darkest time
When my life and my spirit was low.
I walked out on a span of a bridge made by man
And looked down at the water so cold.
I stood shivering there on the edge of despair,
Knowing well I was going to fall
With the end drawing near I had no mortal fear
For I had never known him at all.
Chorus:
But God sent an angel that only my eyes could see.
He was dressed all in white and surrounded by light.
Oh, thank God for the love shown to me.
For the rest of my days, God will show me the way
Since His messenger entered my life.
I was part of his plan for salvation of man,
As I walk in his circle of love
Never more will I doubt what my life's all about
And no more will I suffer despair.
I've got proof He's alive for He let me survive
And I know He's made a home for me there.
When my life and my spirit was low.
I walked out on a span of a bridge made by man
And looked down at the water so cold.
I stood shivering there on the edge of despair,

For I had never known him at all.

I Am The Man, Thomas
They drove me up the hill, Thomas, I am the Man
They made me carry the cross, Thomas, I am the Man
I am the Man, Thomas, I am the Man
Look at these nail scars here in my hands

They nailed me to the cross, Thomas, I am the Man
I am the Man, Thomas, I am the Man
Look at these nail scars here in my hands
They pierced me in the side, Thomas, I am the Man
I died on the cross, Thomas, I am the Man

They buried me in the tomb, Thomas, I am the Man
In three days I rose, Thomas, I am the Man
I am the Man, Thomas, I am the Man
Look at these nail scars here in my hands

Gone Away
Gone away, gone away
All the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night,
but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was down, I was discouraged
Every dream I ever had was gone
But through Him I found the courage
And now I've got the strength I need to carry on
Gone away, gone away
All the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night,
but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away
You know that life, it don't come easy
And sometimes you feel like givin' in
But there's a better day a-coming
If you get down on your knees and talk to Him
Gone away, gone away
All the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night,
but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away
When the days get dark and dreary
And it seems there's more than you can bear
Just remember there is an answer
All you have to do is raise your voice in prayer
Gone away, gone away
All the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night,
but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away
Gone away, all the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night,
but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away
And the troubles in my soul have gone away
All the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night,
but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was down, I was discouraged
Every dream I ever had was gone
But through Him I found the courage
And now I've got the strength I need to carry on

I'll Keep On Sailing
I'm sailing on life's river of sorrow
just trying to keep my head above the raging water
I'll keep on praying along the way
until I land on heaven's shore forever to stay
I'll keep on sailing, sailing,
sailing, sailing, sailing, sailing along
until my Lord comes back
and He will take me to my heavenly home
I'll keep on singing, shouting, giving praises
Oh how the heavens will ring
when we gather up in heaven with Christ our king
If you see me sailing, won't you follow me
and give your heart and soul to the one who set you free
His love's unending as east to west
get aboard with me as I sail on to a haven of rest
I'll keep on sailing, sailing,
sailing, sailing, sailing, sailing along
until my Lord comes back
and He will take me to my heavenly home
I'll keep on singing, shouting, giving praises
Oh how the heavens will ring
when we gather up in heaven with Christ our king
I'll keep on sailing, sailing,
sailing, sailing, sailing, sailing along
until my Lord comes back
and He will take me to my heavenly home
I'll keep on singing, shouting, giving praises
Oh how the heavens will ring
when we gather up in heaven with Christ our king
when we gather up in heaven with Christ our king
just trying to keep my head above the raging water
I'll keep on praying along the way

The Only Thing That Matters
Some people save their money, for the hard times that's to come.
Planning for the future, of their daughters and sons.
But when life down here, on earth is through,
And we face, the judgement throne.
The only thing that matters, is if to him, your soul belongs.
The only thing that matters is if you've been born again
Has the blood been applied, are you forgiven of your sins?
And when he opens up the book of life and into your heart He stares
The only thing that matters, is if your name is written there
In this modern age we live in, many seek for worldly gain
They lay up earthly treasures, and live for wealth and fame.
But if they would only realize, when you die it's all in vain.
The only thing that matters, is if He knows your name.
The only thing that matters is if you've been born again
Has the blood been applied, are you forgiven of your sins?
And when he opens up the book of life and into your heart He stares
The only thing that matters, is if your name is written there
Planning for the future, of their daughters and sons.
But when life down here, on earth is through,
And we face, the judgement throne.
The only thing that matters, is if to him, your soul belongs.
The only thing that matters is if you've been born again
Has the blood been applied, are you forgiven of your sins?
And when he opens up the book of life and into your heart He stares
The only thing that matters, is if your name is written there
In this modern age we live in, many seek for worldly gain
They lay up earthly treasures, and live for wealth and fame.
But if they would only realize, when you die it's all in vain.
The only thing that matters, is if He knows your name.
The only thing that matters is if you've been born again
Has the blood been applied, are you forgiven of your sins?

The only thing that matters, is if your name is written there
The Man Upstairs
Have you talked to the man upstairs?
Well, He wants to hear from you
Have you talked to the man upstairs?
He'll always see you through
And if trouble ever troubles you
Well, don't you run and hide
And if you ever need a friend
He'll be there by your side
Just turn your eyes to Heaven
And say a simple prayer
Through the clouds of lace
You'll see his face
No matter when or where
Have you talked to the man upstairs?
Well, He wants to hear from you
Have you talked to the man upstairs?
He'll always see you through
Have you talked to the man upstairs?
Well, He wants to hear from you
Have you talked to the man upstairs?

Calm The Storm
Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver
Come and calm ( Calm this raging storm )
The storm for me ( Calm the storm for me )
Roll the clouds ( roll those heavy storm clouds )
Out of the way ( All the clouds away )
Make me see ( See the light that's shining )
The blessed light ( See the blessed lighthouse )
When you calm ( When you calm )
The storm for me
All my life I've heard the story
About a man from Galilee
How he calmed the raging river
And he walked the stormy sea
I can feel the winds a-blowing
Here upon my bended knees
So I'm callin' out to you, Lord
Come and calm the sea for me
Come and calm ( Calm this raging storm )
The storm for me ( Calm the storm for me )
Roll the clouds ( roll those heavy storm clouds )
Out of the way ( All the clouds away )
Make me see ( See the light that's shining )
The blessed light ( See the blessed lighthouse )
Shining through the angry waves
( The angry waves )
Just as long ( Long as you're the captain )
As you're the captain ( captain of this vessel )
When my ship ( When my battered ship )
Is lost at sea ( Ship is lost at sea )
Then I know ( then I'll surely know )
I'll reeach the harbor ( Soon I'll reach the harbor )
When you calm ( When you calm )
The storm for me
Come and calm ( Calm this raging storm )
The storm for me ( Calm the storm for me )
Roll the clouds ( roll those heavy storm clouds )
Out of the way ( All the clouds away )
Make me see ( See the light that's shining )
The blessed light ( See the blessed lighthouse )
When you calm ( When you calm )
The storm for me
All my life I've heard the story
About a man from Galilee
How he calmed the raging river
And he walked the stormy sea
I can feel the winds a-blowing
Here upon my bended knees
So I'm callin' out to you, Lord
Come and calm the sea for me
Come and calm ( Calm this raging storm )

Then I know ( then I'll surely know )
I'll reeach the harbor ( Soon I'll reach the harbor )
When you calm ( When you calm )
The storm for me
Where No One Stands Alone
Lyrics by Thomas Mosie Lister
Popularized by Elvis Presley
Once I stood in the night
With my head bowed low
In the darkness as black as could be
And my heart felt alone and I cried oh Lord
Don't hide your face from me
Hold my hand all the way, every hour every day
Come here to the great unknown
Take my hand, let me stand
Where no one stands alone
Like a king I may live in a palace so tall
With great riches to call my own
But I don't know a thing
In this whole wide world
That's worse than being alone
Hold my hand all the way, every hour every day
Come here to the great unknown
Take my hand, let me stand
Where no one stands alone
Popularized by Elvis Presley
Once I stood in the night
With my head bowed low
In the darkness as black as could be
And my heart felt alone and I cried oh Lord
Don't hide your face from me
Hold my hand all the way, every hour every day
Come here to the great unknown
Take my hand, let me stand
Where no one stands alone
Like a king I may live in a palace so tall
With great riches to call my own
But I don't know a thing
In this whole wide world
That's worse than being alone
Hold my hand all the way, every hour every day
Come here to the great unknown
Take my hand, let me stand
Where no one stands alone

The Darkest Hour Is Just Before Dawn
By Emmylou Harris
The sun is slowly sinking
The day's almost gone
Still darkness falls around us
And we must journey on
The darkest hour is just before dawn
The narrow way leads home
Lay down your soul at Jesus' feet
The darkest hour is just before dawn
Like a shepherd out on the mountain
A-watching the sheep down below
He's coming back to claim us
Will you be ready to go?
The darkest hour is just before dawn
The narrow way leads home
Lay down your soul at Jesus' feet
The darkest hour is just before dawn
The sun is slowly sinking
The day's almost gone
Still darkness falls around us
And we must journey on
The darkest hour is just before dawn
The narrow way leads home
Lay down your soul at Jesus' feet
The darkest hour is just before dawn
Like a shepherd out on the mountain
A-watching the sheep down below
He's coming back to claim us
Will you be ready to go?
The darkest hour is just before dawn
The narrow way leads home
Lay down your soul at Jesus' feet
The darkest hour is just before dawn
Keep Your Eyes Toward Heaven
Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band
Just know in your heart that Jesus loves you
and I hope you will never forget
the day that He died on Calvary
He died there for you and for me
Just keep your eyes toward heaven
pick up your cross and follow Him
for there's a brighter day awaiting
if we endure until the end
They nailed Him to the cross at Calvary
to bear the sins for you and me
believe in the Lord God our Savior
and we shall live eternally
Just keep your eyes toward heaven
pick up your cross and follow Him
for there's a brighter day awaiting
if we endure until the end
Do you want to know my Savior
and all the things He's done for me?
Bow down your head at the altar
Please, just call upon His name
Just keep your eyes toward heaven
pick up your cross and follow Him
for there's a brighter day awaiting
if we endure until the end
Relevant bible passages:
Luke 21:28 Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.
Matthew 16:24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.
Matthew 24:12-13 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who endures to the end shall be saved.
Just know in your heart that Jesus loves you

Look to God above, put your trust in Him

No Storms That We Must Fear
Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver
There's been times that I've lost my way
Times I've lived my life in sin
But while I was still so far astray
Christ held out those nail scarred hands
Savior, lead us through the storms of life
As the dangers draw so near
With your precious nail scarred hands on us
There's no storms that we must fear
As we journey through each passing day
Tempted surely we will be
But the Savior's gentle hand's on us
Gives us strength for victory
Savior, lead us through the storms of life
As the dangers draw so near
With your precious nail scarred hands on us
There's no storms that we must fear
There's no one like Jesus Christ the Lord
He is heaven's gift to man
By His glorious power at Calvary
We are kept by mighty hands
Savior, lead us through the storms of life
As the dangers draw so near
With your precious nail scarred hands on us
There's no storms that we must fear
There's been times that I've lost my way
Times I've lived my life in sin
But while I was still so far astray
Christ held out those nail scarred hands

Help Is On The Way
Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver
A woman in the bible days, her last meal: almost gone
But God sent Elijah, to make His word known
He said woman don't you worry, for God sent me today
And before you even asked Him, help was on the way
Just hold on a little longer, help is on the way
A brighter day is coming for those who believe and pray
Help won't help tomorrow if you give up today
Just hold on a little longer, help is on the way
Troubles of this life come by, and burdens get you down
You think no one is listening, you think no one's around
Just remember what his word says, "trust Him and obey"
Keep you eyes towards the heavens, cause help is on the way
Just hold on a little longer, help is on the way
A brighter day is coming for those who believe and pray
Help won't help tomorrow if you give up today
Just hold on a little longer, help is on the way
