A Few Good Men

Lyrics by Gaither Vocal Band

What this dying world could use is a willing Man of God
Who dares to go against the grain and works without applause;
A man who'll raise the shield of Faith, protecting what is pure;
Whose love is tough and gentle; a man whose word is sure.

God doesn't need an Orator who knows what just to say;
He doesn't need authorities to reason Him away;
He doesn't need an army to guarantee a win;
He just needs a Few Good Men.

Men full of Compassion, who Laugh and Love and Cry-
Men who'll face Eternity and aren't afraid to die-
Men who'll fight for Freedom and Honor once again-
He just needs a Few Good Men.

He calls the broken derelict whose life has been renewed;
He calls the one who has the strength to stand up for the Truth.
Enlistment lines are open and He wants you to come in-
He just needs a Few Good Men.

Men full of Compassion, who Laugh and Love and Cry-
Men who'll face Eternity and aren't afraid to die-
Men who'll fight for Freedom and Honor once again-
He just needs a Few Good Men.

Do The Right Thing

by Bluegrass Gospel Group

Well if you're looking at trouble, just do the right thing
ain't no need to be subtle, just do the right thing
step back now from the fire, you'll get burned by that flame
don't tarry, not one second, no, just do the right thing

When that time comes, you know what's right
it's so simple, yeah, it's black and white
Just follow God's voice, yeah, make that choice
Do do do do do do the right thing

If you have a friend in need, do the right thing
don't turn an empty ear to their plea, just do the right thing
just a kind word, like a song bird, can make their heart sing
you lift their spirits up now and do the right thing

When that time comes, you know what's right
it's so simple, yeah, it's black and white
Just follow God's voice, yeah, make that choice
Just do do do do do do the right thing

When that time comes, you know what's right
it's so simple, yeah, it's black and white
Just follow God's voice, yeah, make that choice
Just do do do do do
Just do do do do do
Oh do do do do do
Just do do do wacka do the right thing

The Narrow Way

by Steve Ivey

There's a path that's wide that many have followed
it's a low road that seems full of delight
but at the end of that road it's dreary and lonesome
the long walk back is uphill climb

There's a narrow path that fewer have followed
it's a high road that will lead to the light
at the end of that road is peace and comfort
you won't walk along, God is at your side

Take the narrow way,
walk the high road,
like an arrow, stay,
straight on the line
if you find yourself
where you have to decide
walk away from the path that is wide
Take the narrow way

Along the way, you may stumble and falter
but don't lose sight of of the path you are on
Just stand real still and call to the Father
He will take your hand and lead you on

Take the narrow way,
walk the high road,
like an arrow, stay,
straight on the line
if you find yourself
where you have to decide
walk away from the path that is wide
Take the narrow way

Truth Is

by Bluegrass Gospel Group

You can turn your back on believing
but that don't change the truth
consult your daily horoscope
but that don't change the truth
read the lines in your hands
but that don't change the truth
lead a march with a big ole sign
but that aint gonna change the truth

The truth is
that God is in control
The truth is
His love will make you whole
Jesus is the light the way
give Him your heart for peace today
That's what the truth is

Convince yourself that it's okay
but that don't change the truth
find someone to agree with you
but that don't change the truth
you can justify and rectify
but that don't change the truth
make up a sealed-tight alibi
but that aint gonna change the truth

The truth is
that God is in control
The truth is
His love will make you whole
Jesus is the light the way
give Him your heart for peace today
That's what the truth is

The truth is
that God is in control
The truth is
His love will make you whole
Jesus is the light the way
give Him your heart for peace today
That's what the truth is

Wide Open

Oh, I used to think God was for old folks and preachers
that didn't have a thing to do with me
thought I was running fast, all that stuff didn't last
Now I can't keep up since Jesus set me free

Wide open, running free indeed
I can do all things though Christ who strengthens me
There's no holding back, all the chains are broken
I'm going with God, wide open!

I was headed down a dead-end street ninety miles an hour
just before I crashed, I saw His light
and my spirit's flying free holding on to God's wings
hanging on for my dear life

Wide open, running free indeed
I can do all things though Christ who strengthens me
There's no holding back, all the chains are broken
I'm going with God, wide open!

Wide open, running free indeed
I can do all things though Christ who strengthens me
There's no holding back, all the chains are broken
I'm going with God, wide open!

Go With God

by Steve Ivey

It's easy to get a little side-tracked
walking on this narrow path I'm on
temptation can be so alluring
just one look away and I'm gone

So I'm gonna go with God everywhere I go
I wanna know His love deep inside my soul
yet choose you this day who you wanna lead your way
as for me, I'm gonna go with God!
Come on!

I tried to be my own person,
handle anything, bring it on!
Anyway, where's God when you need Him?
I found out really quick, I got lost!

So I'm gonna go with God everywhere I go
I wanna know His love deep inside my soul
yet choose you this day who you wanna lead your way
as for me, I'm gonna go with God!
Here we go.

I'm gonna go with God everywhere I go
I wanna know His love deep inside my soul
yet choose you this day who you wanna lead your way
as for me, I'm gonna go with God!

Well now, choose you this day who you wanna lead your way
as for me, I'm gonna go with God!

So I'm gonna go with God everywhere I go
I wanna know His love deep inside my soul
yet choose you this day who you wanna lead your way
as for me, I'm gonna go with God!

Come on!

Crooked Sticks

by Steve Ivey

I've never seen a straight one on the ground or in a tree
But when you stop to think about it, they're a lot like you and me
A little rough around the edges, imperfections, there's a few
With just a little carvin', you got one you could use!

Crooked sticks, crooked sticks
Well, there's never been one that God couldn't straighten up and fix
Aint no one of us born perfect, no, we're all crooked sticks

I've read about Zacchaeus sittin' high up in a tree
How God had a purpose for him far beyond what he could see
Crafty and dishonest, despised by all the town
Jesus took a shameless man, turned his life around!

Crooked sticks, crooked sticks
Well, there's never been one that God couldn't straighten up and fix
Aint no one of us born perfect, no, we're all crooked sticks

Crooked sticks, crooked sticks
Well, there's never been one that God couldn't straighten up and fix
Aint no one of us born perfect, no, we're all crooked sticks
There's never been one that God couldn't straighten up and fix
Aint no one of us born perfect, no, we're all crooked sticks

Believe

Composer: Steve Ivey

Daniel in the lion's den never had a doubt

he knew that God would spare him and shut that lion's mouth!

David stood with his little sling and one round stone

took down the mighty warrior, but he didn't stand alone.

Believe

And you can move a mountain

Believe

And the water will part

Just a seed 

Full of faith and hope

Is all you need

Planted deep in your heart

Just believe, just believe!

Zacchaeus was a little man, so he climbed up in a tree,

he knew that God would change his heart, if he could only see

Moses led the people to the waterside,

'cause he knew there'd be a path to walk when they arrived

Believe

And you can move a mountain

Believe

And the water will part

Just a seed 

Full of faith and hope

Is all you need

Planted deep in your heart

Just believe, just believe!

Just Believe

And you can move a mountain

Believe

And the water will part

Just a seed 

Full of faith and hope

Is all you need

Planted deep in your heart

Just believe, just believe!

Set It Free

lyrics by Cindy Boehler

Set it free, set it free! Lift your heart up, set it free!
There's no hope inside as far as you can see.
When the world is on your shoulders,
put your weight upon your knees.
Cast your cares upon the Lord and set it free!

When you're weary in this world
and troubles drag you to the ground,
darkness swallows you at each and every turn,
you have cleansed your heart with prayer,
still there's no peace to be found,
find the promise of salvation in the Word.

Set it free, set it free! Lift your heart up, set it free!
There's no hope inside as far as you can see.
When the world is on your shoulders,
put your weight upon your knees.
Cast your cares upon the Lord and set it free!

Come to Jesus with your worries,
come to Jesus with your trials,
set your sorrows from your heart into His hand.
God is waiting, He is watching,
He has promised in the bible,
we will all have sweet redemption in His plan

Set it free, set it free! Lift your heart up, set it free!
There's no hope inside as far as you can see.
When the world is on your shoulders,
put your weight upon your knees.
Cast your cares upon the Lord and set it free!

Set it free, set it free! Lift your heart up, set it free!
There's no hope inside as far as you can see.
When the world is on your shoulders,
put your weight upon your knees.
Cast your cares upon the Lord and set it free!
