Blessed Recording
I AM BLESSED
Verse 1
I was a sinner simply existing in this world
Until one day Lord Jesus came and spoke to me His word.
Now, I admit I had to submit to His spirit's call
Then He touched my soul and He made me whole
When I gave Him my all
Chorus
Well I know He saved me, when I called on His name that blessed hour
And I know He changed me and He made me new when I felt His saving power
Now I'm still living a life of sacrifice and I know He'll see me through
I must confess, I am blessed.
Verse 2
It's been many years since I shed those tears at an altar of prayer that day
But I'm just as excited that the Lord delighted in making this sinner saved
As a matter of fact the day I asked to put his saving grace on me
I've got something new, now Heaven's in view
And I'll live with Him eternally!
IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL
Verse 1
When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot Thou has taught me to say
It is well, it is well with my soul.
It is well with my soul
It is well, it is well with my soul.
Verse 2
My sin, oh the bliss, of this glorious thought
My sin, not in part, but the whole
Is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, oh my soul!
It is well with my soul
It is well, it is well with my soul.
Verse 3
And Lord haste the day when my faith shall be sight
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll
The trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend
Even so, it is well with my soul.
It is well with my soul
It is well, it is well with my soul.
COOL DRINK OF WATER
Chorus
I need a cool drink of water from the fountain of the Father
For I am thirsty in a desert dry
I need manna from above, coming down with His love
I need a fresh anointing falling from the sky (2X)
Verse 1
Though I get so tired of walkin' down this lonesome road
It will be ok for Jesus is near
Though I fail Him, though I fall, when I'm weak, He is strong
I will rest in Him, so I will not fear
I will not fear.
Verse 2
When I'm facing a mountain and I don't know which way to go
I will seek the Lord, for He will guide my feet
And when I need a miracle, He is always faithful
To give me in abundance all that I need
All that I need.
HE'S BEEN SO GOOD TO ME
Chorus
I love to sing about Jesus for He's been so good to me
He's been a friend like no other
For He gave His life on Calvary
One day I'll enter Glory
Forever I shall rest eternally
Til then I tell the blessed old story
Of how Jesus saves and how He set the captive free
Oh, how I love to sing about Jesus for He's been so good to me!
Verse 1
As long as I've been alive I've never seen anything
Like the love of Jesus, my Lord and king
I can't ever feel too stressed cause by the Lord, I've been blessed
But when I think about Jesus, I just have to sing
Verse 2
I know I don't deserve any of the the blessings from my Lord
But I know His wonderful grace is so free
All this goodness from above is comin' down with His love
And I want to sing about how good He's been to me
MAKER OF THE RAIN
Verse 1
You're not alone, I've been there too
Life always seems to get the best of you
Your problems are piled so high
The weight is so heavy, so why even try?
Every day you try and give your best for the Lord
But He doesn't seem to notice
your dreams shattered on the floor
Chorus
Sometimes it rains, and we're caught outside
There's no shelter around and we ask God why
We look up and cry, "where are you now?"
Then He softly says, "I'll alwys be the same"
Just remember He's the maker of the rain.
Verse 2
Like I said before, I've been there too
But now I have a different point of view
Cause He took it all, He took it all away
Now I'm standing on this mountain and now I can say
As I look back I see He had it all in His hand
So even when the clouds roll in I will trust in His plan
Bridge
Friend, don't be discouraged
Just remember what He said
When your standing in that downpour
There is sunshine up ahead
WHO IS THIS MAN
Verse 1
Who is this man, born of a virgin, in a manger in Bethlehem?
Who is this man who dwelt among sinners,
Healed the blind, the deaf, the dumb, and the lame man?
Who fed five thousand with the lunch of a child?
Who was tempted yet never sinned?
And who is this man who spoke with authority,
Yet rejected by even His friends?
Verse 2
Who was this man? Who was accused
When no wrong had He done?
Who was beaten, spit upon, and mocked
For claiming that He was God's son?
And who was this man who carried a cross
Up a hill called the Place of the Skull?
And who laid down His life to save the world from sin,
Who bled and died for all?
Verse 3
Who was this man who was placed in a tomb
With a stone sealed in front of the door?
And who was this man who rose from the dead
And is alive forever more?
Chorus
His name is Jesus, Redeemer, the Great I Am,
Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End,
Messiah, Jehovah, Counselor, and Friend,
The Lily of the Valley, the broken Rose of Sharon,
The King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords,
He is Jesus, the Saviour of the world!
Bridge
All hail the power of Jesus' name
Let angels prostrate fall
Bring forth the royal diadem
And crown Him, Lord of all!
ON MY WAY HOME
Verse 1
I've got a vision of a heavenly country
I've dreamed dreams of its beauty so rare
I'm anticipating all the joy that's awaiting
And I'll rejoice to meet my Jesus there
Chorus
I'm on my way home, I'm waiting to be called away
It won't be long til that homecoming day
There forever with Jesus I will be
For I will live eternally
I'm on my way home, I'm on my way home.
Verse 2
Now I can't complain of this life I have lived
For the good Lord has blessed me with an abundance of grace
And one day I'll reside where in sweet rest I'll abide
And I will finally get to look upon my Saviour's face
THAT WONDERFUL DAY
Verse 1
I was wandering along life's road feeling so burdened and so lost
But then I met the Saviour who died on that old cross
He change my life completely, since then I've never been the same
No other day has been like that day when I called on Jesus' name.
Chorus
That day, that wonderful day when Jesus came down to me
It was the day my broken heart was mended and my blinded eyes could see
What grace, what wonderful grace when Jesus set my spirit free
That day, that blessed wonderful day when Jesus came down to me
Verse 2
Now I'm trying to serve Him just to say thanks for what He's done
My battle in life is not over, but my vic'try is already won
I have a sweet assurance that will never leave me while on my way
I've never been the same ever since that wonderful day!
I'LL CAST MY CROWN
Verse 1
The day is approaching when things of earth shall pass away
All sorrows will be ended on that eternal day
The saints will all be home, at last we shall see our King
And we'll celebrate around the throne
And lay our crowns at His feet
Chorus
At Jesus' feet I'll cast my crown
Before His throne I'll humbly bow
The angels will all be silent,
For they'll not know the song I sing
And redemption will be the melody that I bring
I'll cast my crown at Jesus' feet
Verse 2
I'm ready for His appearing at that final judgement hour
When satan will cower before our Lord without dominion or power
His sentence will be issued
All of Heaven will rejoice in victory
For our accuser will be bound in hell for all eternity
Then I will approach the throne to show my thankfulness
To be in His presense in sweet everlasting rest.
SEE YA OVER THERE
Verse 1
One of these days I'm going over yonder
To a land that God's prepared for me
I won't be looking back, moving on
To that land of sweet victory
Now you may be sad when you see my body
Laid down in that grave
But don't you worry 'bout a thing when I die
For I know that my soul's been saved
Chorus
Well I'll see ya over there
All the glory we will share
When I step on the streets of gold
What a day that will be when Jesus we see
In that land where we'll never grow old
When you get to that place by His saving grace
No more sorrow and no more care
But for now I have to wait to begin to celebrate
But one day I'll see ya over there!
Verse 2
Now there is no doubt that I'm gonna shout
When I get to see my Saviour's face
There'll be no more pain, there'll be no more tears
When I reach that great Heavenly place
My Lord will say well done, enter in my child,
All of mine is now yours to share
I'll have a mansion my own in my brand new home
And I'm gonna see ya over there!
AIN'T NOBODY RECORDING
HE'S COMING BACK SOON
Verse 1
I believe the Lord's return could happen any day
We will hear that trumpet sound
And the church will be called away
Well I'm waiting for His appearing
For His dear face I'll see
I believe the Lord is coming back soon
And forever with Him I'll be
Chorus
He's coming again!
He's coming in the cloud's and it could be any day
He will descend!
He will descend from the sky and then His bride will fly away
I'll hear His call!
I'll hear Him say well done, enter in to live eternally
I believe the Lord is coming back soon
And He's coming back for me
Verse 2
Now friend you may be wondering what it's all about
Why we get so excited and why we sing and shout
Oh but friend now you must know
The redeemed are gonna fly
You need to be counted in that number
So you enter the sweet by and by
I HAVE A STORY TO TELL
Verse 1
It started in the garden of Eden
When sin layed hold on man's soul
Then on the cross came our freedom
When I claimed the blood, I was made whole
Now I'm looking for Heaven
For my sin debt's been paid
And I've had a story ever since I got saved
Chorus
I have a story to tell
It can save an old sinner from hell
There's power in the blood
And whosoever may come
I have a story to tell
Yes, I have a story to tell
Verse 2
He made blinded eyes to see
He made the lame to walk again
He died on the cross for the sin of this world
And on the third day, He arose from the dead
Now I'm waiting for Jesus
To come back someday
And I'll tell the story that Jesus still saves!
AIN'T NOBODY
Chorus
There ain't nobody as good as my Jesus
There ain't nobody as good as my Lord (2x)
Verse 1
Well I know He is the king
(Ain't nobody but Jesus)
I know He is the king of kings
(Ain't nobody but my Lord)
He is the Lord of all
(Ain't nobody but Jesus)
He is the Lord of great and small
(Ain't nobody but my Lord)
Verse 2
He is a help in time of need
(Ain't nobody but Jesus)

He still gives me peace within
(Ain't nobody but my Lord)
Bridge
He is the resurrection, the Truth, the Life, the Way
There is no other like Him, and I just have to say...
PLEASE REMEMBER ME
Verse 1
Two men, thieves and murderers, deserving their death
Sentenced to die in shame
While they gasped for each dying breath
But between these two, the Holy One
The Messiah wrongly accused
And for these men's transgressions
He was beaten and bruised
Verse 2
Two men beside Jesus hanging condemned the same
Both with the oppurtunity
To call on his blessed name
Two men crucified to die for sins they did commit
But only one of these two mens sins
Jesus did forgive, when he said...
Chorus
Lord, I believe you are the Christ
You are the only one who can give new life
You are the Holy Lamb,
You are the Great I Am
You are the king of kings and the Lord of everything
When you enter into your kingdom,
Please remember me
Bridge
The other man on the other cross
Mocked Him to scorn
But the believeing man received His grace
And he was made reborn
I too once hung in judgement
On my cross of iniquity
But when I confessed, "Jesus is Lord"
He forgave even me! Even me! When I said...
THERE IS A BIGGER BLESSING
Verse 1
Mary and Martha waited for the Lord to come
But He seemed to be running late
Jesus showed up four days after
Their brother Had died
But when our Lord raised Lazarus from the dead
They found it was worth the wait
Chorus
There is a bigger blessing waiting for you
If you will wait upon the Lord
There is a better promise in store
If you will trust His every word
Sometimes it seems that the Lord is running late
But He will satisfy those who are willing to wait
There is a bigger blessing waiting for you
If you will wait upon the Lord
Verse 2
I've been waiting for the Lord to come again
For I know Heaven will be my home someday
There are so many trials in this life that get me down
But I know there's a bigger blessing
That is on the way
HEAVEN MEDLEY
Verse 1
Sing the wonderous love of Jesus
Sing His mercies and His grace
In the mansions, bright and blessed
He'll prepare for us a place
Chorus 1
When we all get to Heaven
What a day of rejoicing that will be
When we all see Jesus
We'll sing and shout the victory
Verse 2
Onward to the prize before us
Soon His beauty we'll behold
Soon the pearly gates will open
We shall tread the streets of gold (to Chorus 1)
Verse 3
My heavenly home is bright and fair
I feel like traveling on
No pain nor death can enter there
I feel like traveling on
Verse 4
The glittering towers, the sun outshines
I feel like traveling on
I know a mansion shall be mine
Yes I feel like traveling on
Chorus 2
I feel like traveling on
I feel like traveling on
My heavenly home is bright and fair
I feel like traveling on
Chorus 3
Looking for a city
(Looking here and there, looking, a city)
Where we'll never die
(Where we'll never die, never die, no never)
There the sainted millions
(There with all the saints, yes with the millions)
Never say goodbye
(Never say goodbye, say goodbye, no never)
There we'll meet our Savior
(When we gather there, we'll meet Christ our savior)
And our loved ones too
(And we know we'll meet friends and our loved ones)
Come, oh Holy Spirit
(Pray they quickly come, come oh Holy Spirit)
All our hopes renewed!
THERE IS A FOUNTAIN
Verse 1
The blood and sweat poured down His face
As He looked into that cup
He saw the sin of a wicked world
And He knew what had to be done
So He layed down His life for you and me
And the blood flowed from Calvary
And today, that same blood flows from the throne
Chorus
There is a fountain that flows from Heaven
There is a stream that flows from the throne
And it's the blood from a crucified Lamb
And this blood will lead me home
Verse 2
For every sin I have committed
There's a drop of blood to atone
No matter where I've been or what I've done
I'm never alone
For the blood of Jesus has washed me clean
I'm an heir to the throne, thanks to Calvary
And that same blood still flows for the lost
Bridge
There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Emmanuel's veins
WE SHALL RISE
Verse 1
One day the trumpet of God will sound
And the dead in Christ will leave the ground
Then those who remain will begin to fly
Just a few days and then will sing
Glorified praises to our king
Now I'm waiting for the moment when we shall rise
Chorus
We shall rise up in the air
No more pain and no more care
Then we'll shout, glory glory
Around the throne
We'll see our loved ones in that land
Walk with Jesus hand in hand
We shall rise one day and forever we'll be home
Verse 2
John saw the gates and streets of gold
And the prophets of old
And he saw jasper walls built so high
Well just like John, I'm gonna go
Up to that home one day I know
When He calls the church to Heaven
We're gonna rise
HE HIDETH MY SOUL/A WONDERFUL SAVIOR
Verse 1
A wonderful savior is Jesus, my Lord
A wonderful savior to me
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock
Where rivers of pleasure I see
Verse 2
A wonderful savior is Jesus, my Lord
He taketh my burden away
He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved
He giveth me strength as my day
Chorus
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock
That shadows a dry, thirsty land
He hideth my life in the depths of His love
And covers me there with His hand
And covers me there with His hand
Verse 3
With numberless blessings each moment He crowns
And filled with His fullness divine
I sing in my rapture, oh glory to God
For such a redeemer as mine!
JOSEPH GOT HIS TOMB BACK
Verse 1
Imagine with me if you will
The day Jesus rose from the dead
A knock at Joseph's front door
So he arose out of bed
There a man stood with a message to bring
As he opened up the door
He said, "the Lord is alive
Thanks again, but He won't be needing your tomb anymore!"
Chorus
Only for a weekend did Jesus need the tomb
For only three days was He dead in that room
I wonder, did he know that the Lord would rise
Or was His resurrection a great big surprise
When Joseph took His body and laid it in the grave
Did he know it would only be for three days?
All we really know, as a matter of fact
Joseph got his tomb back
Verse 2
Suppose Joseph went to the tomb that day
On resurrection mor'n
Expecting our Lord's body laying inside
And the stone in front of the door
But when he arrived to his surprise
The stone had been rolled away
Two men standing there dressed in white
Saying you can have your tomb back today
