by The High Road
Rejected and afraid
You feel so all alone
Your soul is crying out
For a place to call a home
The world has torn your dreams apart
And left you in the cold
But something led you here today
To a love that you can hold
This is a good place
This is God's place
This is where your heart belongs
A place of forgiveness
A place for the broken
A place where the healing has begun
So bring all your scars and give them to Jesus
He will wipe away your tears
This is a good place
This is God's place
You can leave your burdens here
Your haunted by your past
And the places you have been
Mistakes that you have made
That seem to have no end
But here you'll find a family
And comfort in the One
Who holds all your tomorrows
God's own begotten Son
Cause this is a good place
This is God's place
This is where your heart belongs
A place of forgiveness
A place for the broken
A place where the healing has begun
So bring all your scars and give them to Jesus
He will wipe away your tears
This is a good place
This is God's place
You can leave your burdens here
Here in a love
that never turns and walks away
Here in the presence of the Saviour
you'll find grace
Cause this is a good place
This is God's place
This is where your heart belongs
A place of forgiveness
A place for the broken
A place where the healing has begun
So bring all your scars and give them to Jesus
He will wipe away your tears
This is a good place
This is God's place
You can leave your burdens here
Leave your burdens here
You can leave your burdens here

I Know, I know
Lyrics by Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver
I am on a journey to a land so bright and fair
where there is a place prepared for me
it started at an altar down on my knees in prayer
Jesus came and set me free
I know, I know
Jesus came and saved my soul
now I'm on my way to heaven
where the milk and honey flows
I know, I know
If you haven't met the Savior
or perhaps you've lost your way
take some good advice from me:
Just let the Spirit lead you
to the rugged cross today,
you'll find blessed victory
I know, I know
Jesus came and saved my soul
now I'm on my way to heaven
where the milk and honey flows
I know, I know
I know, I know
Jesus came and saved my soul
now I'm on my way to heaven
where the milk and honey flows
I know, I know
I know, I know
Jesus came and saved my soul
now I'm on my way to heaven
where the milk and honey flows
I know, I know
I know, I know
I am on a journey to a land so bright and fair
where there is a place prepared for me
it started at an altar down on my knees in prayer
Jesus came and set me free
I know, I know
Jesus came and saved my soul
now I'm on my way to heaven
where the milk and honey flows
I know, I know
If you haven't met the Savior
or perhaps you've lost your way
take some good advice from me:
Just let the Spirit lead you
to the rugged cross today,
you'll find blessed victory
I know, I know
Jesus came and saved my soul
now I'm on my way to heaven
where the milk and honey flows
I know, I know
I know, I know
Jesus came and saved my soul
now I'm on my way to heaven
where the milk and honey flows
I know, I know
I know, I know
Jesus came and saved my soul
now I'm on my way to heaven
where the milk and honey flows
I know, I know
I know, I know

(Every) Day By Day
"Day by day" by Steve Ivey
So many choices
distract along the way
it's so easy
just to go ahead and stray
making decisions
without a single prayer
then I find myself
in a mess of despair
Day by day,
I'm gonna follow you Lord
Step by step,
I will wait for your voice
minute by minute,
I'll sing you praise
every minute, every step,
every day by day
Even through the valley
I know Your way is clear
straight up the mountain
for a breath of fresh air
on the green pastures
when the shadows fall
I trust in you Lord
to get me through it all
Day by day,
I'm gonna follow you Lord
Step by step,
I will wait for your voice
minute by minute,
I'll sing you praise
every minute, every step,
every day by day
Day by day,
I'm gonna follow you Lord
Step by step,
I will wait for your voice
minute by minute,
I'll sing you praise
every minute, every step,
every day by day
every minute, every step,
every day by day
So many choices
distract along the way
it's so easy
just to go ahead and stray
making decisions
without a single prayer
then I find myself
in a mess of despair
Day by day,
I'm gonna follow you Lord
Step by step,
I will wait for your voice

Step by step,

Lord, I'll Wait
by Seminole String Band
The message of this world is
"Do all you can for yourself
it doesn't matter what God says
let's just put Him on a shelf"
but I want everybody to see
that's not how it should be
and I pray that through my life they find
it's best to follow thee
Lord, I'll wait for you,
though this world tries to rush me on.
Lord, I'll wait for you,
doing things your way is never wrong.
So then I'll fill my time,
with what you'd have me to do
Lord, I'll wait for you.
Sometimes it's hard to wait,
but over and over I've seen
if I take things into my hands
they will never truly succeed
but if I'm willing to step aside
and let you have control
I'll see again, your way is best
'cause you're the keeper of my soul
Lord, I'll wait for you,
though this world tries to rush me on.
Lord, I'll wait for you,
doing things your way is never wrong.
So then I'll fill my time,
with what you'd have me to do
Lord, I'll wait for you.
There are others watching you
to see what you will do,
when temptations 'round you rise
to God's word will you stay true?
So don't give up 'cause there is one
walking in your tracks.
Just be a light so others
will walk in the narrow path
Lord, I'll wait for you,
though this world tries to rush me on.
Lord, I'll wait for you,
doing things your way is never wrong.
So then I'll fill my time,
with what you'd have me to do
Lord, I'll wait for you.
Lord, I'll wait for you.

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.

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
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

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!
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

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.
