Mark Lowery

Mary did you know that your baby boy would one day walk on water?
Mary did you know that your baby boy would save our sons and daughters?
Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you’ve delivered, will soon deliver you.

Mary did you know that your baby boy would give sight to a blind man?
Mary did you know that your baby boy would calm a storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little baby, you have kissed the son of God.

Oh Mary did you know

The blind will see, the deaf will hear,  the dead will live again.
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak, the praises of the lamb.

Mary did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary did you know that your baby boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy is heaven’s perfect Lamb?
This sleeping child you’re holding is the great I am.

(0:11) In the Palace in the land of mercy
The King looked out from His throne
He saw the sick and the homeless and hungry
He saw me lost and without hope
And moved with compassion
He sent out His only Son
With the invitation
to come

(0:50) This is your invitation
Come just the way you are
Come find what your soul has been longing for
Come find your peace
Come join the feast
Come in
This is your invitation

(1:38) So I stood outside the gates and trembled
In my rags of unworthiness
Afraid to even stand at a distance
In the presence of Holiness
But just as I turned to go
The gates swung open wide
And the King and His only Son
They invited me inside

(2:17) This is your invitation
Come just the way you are
Come find what your soul has been longing for
Come find your peace
Come join the feast
Come in
This is your invitation

(3:14) So now will you come with me
To where the gates swing open wide
The King and His only Son
Are inviting us inside

(3:32) This is our invitation
Come sinner as you are
Come find what your soul has been longing for
Come find your peace
Come join the feast
Come in
This is your invitation
This is our invitation
This is the invitation

He’s Alive
By David Phelps

(0:19) The gates and doors were barred
And all the windows fastened down
I spent the night in sleeplessness
And rose at every sound
Half in hope of sorrow
And half in fear the day
Would find the soldiers breakin’ through
To drag us all away

(0:42) And just before the sunrise
I heard something at the wall
The gate began to rattle
And a voice began to call
I hurried to the window
Looked down into the street
Expecting swords and torches
And the sound of soldiers’ feet

(1:07) But there was no one there but Mary
So I went down to let her in
John stood there beside me
As she told me where she’d been
She said they’ve moved Him in the night
And none of us know where
The stone’s been rolled away
And now His body isn’t there

(1:28) We both ran towards the garden
Then John ran on ahead
We found the stone and empty tomb
Just the way that Mary said
But the winding sheet they wrapped Him in
Was just an empty shell
And how or where they’d taken Him
Was more than I could tell

(1:54) Oh something strange had happened there
Just what I did not know
John believed a miracle
But I just turned to go
Circumstance and speculation
Couldn’t lift me very high
‘Cause I’d seen them crucify Him
Then I saw Him die

(2:20) Back inside the house again
The guilt and anguish came
Everything I’d promised Him
Just added to my shame
When at last it came to choices
I denied I knew His name
And even if He was alive
It wouldn’t be the same

(2:46) But suddenly the air was filled
With a strange and sweet perfume
Light that came from everywhere
Drove shadows from the room
And Jesus stood before me
With His arms held open wide
And I fell down on my knees
And I just clung to Him and cried

(3:11) Then He raised me to my feet
And as I looked into His eyes
The love was shining out from Him
Like sunlight from the skies
Guilt in my confusion
Disappeared in sweet release
And every fear I ever had
Just melted into peace

(3:45) He’s alive, He’s alive,
He’s alive and I’m forgiven
Heaven’s gates are open wide
He’s alive yes He’s alive
He’s alive and I’m forgiven
Heaven’s gates are open wide
He’s alive Hallelujah He’s alive Praise the Lord
He’s alive and I’m forgiven
Heaven’s gates are open wide
He’s alive He’s alive He’s alive
He’s alive

Guilty
by KJ-52

(0:10) All rise. Case number seven-seven-seven-five-two.
Defendant KJ-52 verses the Son of God in murder one.
How do you plead?
Guilty as charged.
Do you promise to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?
I do.
Then go ahead.

(0:30) I solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth now, so help me God.
What I testify and what I’m speaking of is an eye witness account of an experience of a kindof love,
I confess now to what it was.
I was guilty of making the very Son of God now shed His blood, and
I was guilty of the reason now why He was hung, and
I’m guilty for every evil thing not that I have done.
I’m guilty for it all, I can’t blame no one.
I’m filthy with what caused the death of the Son.
It kills me to think I was the one who shed His blood.
I still think of the way He died now and how it was.
It feels me with pain inside, I feel like throwing up.
I can’t escape, I can’t lie, I didn’t make it up.
I was the one who took the life of the Holy One.
This is the first time I’ve confessed now to what I’ve done.

(1:11) I’m guilty, guilty.
That’s right, I’m guilty.
God forgive me, I’m guilty.
You know what? I’m guilty!

(1:31) Yeah that’s right, I did it.
Right out in the open for all to see it, and
I never hid it, I got to admit it.
They took the whip, ripped His back wide open and split it.
I heard Him cry every time they pulled it back and hit it.
I wondered why He was silent now, I didn’t get it.
I watched Him die while He cried out “It is finished”.
Thought nobody would find out about the the crime I’ve committed.
I tried to hide out, it’s too late, that’s right I did this.
It’s my time now, my own eyes have been a witness to my crime.
Now I’m speechless and I’m defenseless.
Can anybody find out it’s obvious that this is my final time.
Now I’ve finally come to my senses.
I’m a climb down and take whatever I’m sentenced.
I know why there’s no way now that I could miss this.
I opened my eyes, now I see Him just for who He is.
This my guilt is mine now, it’s so obvious that…

(2:13) I’m guilty.
God forgive me, I’m guilty!
I’m guilty.
That’s right, I’m guilty.
So help me.

(2:32) I’m just another person, I’m just another man.
I was the one that hurt Him, I finally understand.
Now I know that for certain I caused the nails to land,
That left Him dead and murdered, pierced in feet and hands.
So now you’ve heard it, I testified and took the stand.
No other way I could word it, this is my confession and,
I never lied or purgured, I told just the best I can but,
I was the one that cursed Him, I was the trigger man.
The page is turning and I’ve now just confessed to this.
I didn’t kill Christ, but it was just my sin that did.
Now I’ve confessed to the crime, I don’t deserve to live,
I’m ready to do my time. All that I can say is…

(3:03) I’m guilty.
God forgive me, I’m guilty!
I don’t deserve to live, I’m guilty!
Take me away, I’m guilty.
I’m guilty!

(3:24) Case number seven-seven-seven-five-two,
KJ-52 verses the Son of God in murder one.
The court has found you guilty as charged.
However, after further review of the case,
The prosecution has dropped the charges.
You’re free to go.

God Is God
By Steven Curtis Chapman

(0:08) And the pain falls like a curtain
On the things I once called certain
And I have to say the words I fear the most
I just don’t know

(0:24) And the questions without answers
Come and paralyze the dancer
So I stand here on the stage afraid to move
Afraid to fall, oh, but fall I must
On this truth that my life has been formed from the dust

(0:46) God is God and I am not
I can only see a part of the picture He’s painting
God is God and I am man
So I’ll never understand it all
For only God is God

(1:13) And the sky begins to thunder
And I’m filled with awe and wonder
‘Til the only burning question that remains
Is who am I

(1:30) Can I form a single mountain
Take the stars in hand and count them
Can I even take a breath without God giving it to me
He is first and last before all that has been
Beyond all that will pass

(1:52) Chorus

(2:19) Great is the Lord, Holy, Holy
Great is the Lord
Great is the Lord, Holy, Holy
Great is the Lord

(2:46) Oh, how great are the riches of His wisdom and knowledge
How unsearchable for to Him and through
Him and from Him are all things

(3:04) So let us worship before the throne
Of the One who is worthy of worship alone

(3:15) Chorus

Only God is God

David Meece

(0:18) It was a cloudy day
The earth stood still
Man hung crying in the shadows
Of a hill called Calvary
An innocent man, belied and scorned
Had gladly borne the pain
And suffering for a world
That should have died there in His place
And as He did, He said,

(0:54) “Forgive them no matter what they’ve done
Forgive them and tell them they are loved
And give to them a chance to go on living
And give to them a life that they could
never have before
Father, forgive them”

(1:39) And to pay the price
He became the sacrifice
Surely, He carried all of my sorrows
And He bore my every grief
And did it willingly
He shed His blood for me
And through the tears, I still can see Him
Gaze with love upon the ones who cursed His name
He gave his all to say

(2:15) We’re forgiven no matter what we’ve done
Forgiven and sheltered by His blood
And we’re given a chance to go on living
And we’re given a life that we could
never have before

(2:50) No matter what we’ve done
Forgiven and sheltered by His blood
And we’re given a chance to go on living
Forgiven
Forgiven by his blood

Clay Crosse

(0:14) The twelve of you walked on the earth together
The father was a brother to you all
The teaching that you heard was the Living Word
The wonders and the miracles you saw

(0:42) There were times of awesome inspiration
There were times you didn’t understand
And when He had to go and you felt alone
It must have been so hard to see His plan

(1:10) I think about the way you carried on
In the face of persecution you stood strong…

(1:22) I will follow Christ
I will run the race
Fighting the good fight
Standing on my faith
I will wear the name of Jesus
I will give Him all my life
As for me no matter what the sacrifice
I will follow Christ

(2:00) Now I don’t have to look across the ages
His voice is speaking in my heart today
His Word is like a flame consuming all my shame
His life a shining star to show the way

(2:26) I will follow Christ
I will run the race
Fighting the good fight
Standing on my faith
I will wear the name of Jesus
I will give Him all my life
As for me no matter what the sacrifice
I will follow Christ

(2:57) I behold Your life and see the man You want me to become
Living like someone whose heart belongs to the kingdom
That was sealed on Calvary
I will show the world what I believe

(3:23) I will follow Christ
I will run the race
Fighting the good fight
Standing on my faith
I will wear the name of Jesus
I will give Him all my life
As for me no matter what the sacrifice
I will follow Christ

I will wear the name of Jesus
I will give Him all my life
As for me no matter what the sacrifice
I will follow Christ
I will follow Christ

Avalon

(0:15) I grew up in Sunday school
I memorized the golden rule
And how Jesus came to set the sinner free
I know the story inside out
I can tell you all about
The path that lead him up on Calvary
But ask me why He loves me
And I don’t know what to say,
But I’ll never be the same because
He changed my life when He became…

(0:57) Everything to me!
He’s more than a story
More than words on a page of history.
He’s the air that I breathe,
The water I thirst for,
And the ground beneath my feet
He’s everything, everything to me!

(1:35) We’re living in uncertain times
And more and more I find that I’m
Aware of just how fragile life can be.
I want to tell the world I found
The love that turned my life around
They need to know that they can taste and see.
Now everyday I’m praying
Just to give my heart away
I want to live for Jesus
So that someone else might see that He is…

(2:17) Everything to me!
He’s more than a story
More than words on a page of history.
He’s the air that I breathe,
The water I thirst for,
And the ground beneath my feet
He’s everything, everything to me!

(2:45) And looking back over my life at the end
I’ll go to meet you saying you’ve been…

(3:03) You’re everything to me
More than a story
More than words on a page of history

(3:17)You’re everything to me!
You’re more than a story
More than words on a page of history.
You’re the air that I breathe
The water I thirst for
And the ground beneath my feet
You’re everything! Lord, You’re everything to me!
(Everything to me) (The Water I thirst for)
You’re everything to me, Jesus! Ohhhh!
(Everything to me) (Water I thirst for)
The Air I breathe, the Sun I see…Ohhhh!
(Everything to me) Everything to me!
You’re my Life, my Love, Everything.

David Phelps

(0:46) I was takin a trip on a plane the other day
just wishing that I could get out.
When the man next to me saw the book in my hand
and asked me what it was about.
So I settled back in my seat-
“A best seller,” I said.
“A history, a mystery in one.”
And then I opened up the book and began to read
from Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

(1:11) He was born of a virgin one holy night
in the little town of Bethlehem.
Angels gathered round him underneath the stars
singing praises to the great I Am.
He walked on the water, healed the lame and made the blind to see again.
And for the first time here on earth we learned that God could be a friend.
And though he never ever did a single thing wrong
the angry crowd chose him. And then he walked down the road
and died on the cross and that was the end of the beginning.

(1:58) “That’s not a new book thats a bible,” he said, “and I’ve heard it all before.
I’ve tried religion- its shame and guilt and I don’t need it anymore.
It’s superstition, made up tales and just to help the weak to survive.”
“Let me read it again,” I said, “listen closely, cuz this is gonna change your life.

(2:20) He was born of a virgin one holy night
in the little town of Bethlehem.
Angels gathered round him underneath the stars
singing praises to the great I Am.
He walked on the water, healed the lame and made the blind to see again.
And for the first time here on earth we learned that God could be a friend.
And though he never ever did a single thing wrong
the angry crowd chose him. And then he walked down the road
and died on the cross and that was the end of the beginning.

(3:12) “The end of the beginning,” he said with a smile.
“What more could there be? He’s dead.
You said they hung him, put nails in His hands
and a crown of thorns on His head.”
I said, “I’ll read it again but this time there’s more,
and I believe that this is true.
His death wasn’t the end, the beginning of life
that’s completed in you.
Don’t you see he did all this for you!”

(3:45) He was born of a virgin one holy night
in the little town of Bethlehem
All the angles singing praises to the great I AM
He walked on the water, healed the lame,
and made the blind to see(eee)
(and for the first time here on earth)
Did you know that God could be a friend.
Tho He never ever did a single thing wrong,
He was the one the crowd chose.
then he walked and he died but
three days later (3x) HE ROSE!!!!!!!!
Three days later he rose!

(4:53) You see he came, he lived, and he died.
But that was the end of the beginning.

Devil Is Bad
by W’s

(0:31) She was walking in the garden one day
When a snake slithered round her feet
Follow me right over to this tree
And I’ll give you something good to eat
I don’t know, are you sure? I don’t think it is right
It doesn’t matter just open your mouth and take a tasty bite
She said to him I think it’s a sin but boy does it look ripe
He said to her just take my word
And I promise that you’ll see the light

(1:00) Why don’t you skidilly-dee?
‘Cause I don’t wanna see your face round here no more
Why don’t you skidilly-doo?
‘Cause this is now and that was before
Cause you are the devil and the devil is bad (hey!),
you are the devil and the devil is bad (hey!),
you are the devil and the devil is bad (hey!),
you are the devil and you are bad

(1:37) The tempter met him in the desert one day
Are You the Son of God?
Turn these stones into wholesome bread
And make your hunger stop
Even though his hunger had grown real strong
He turned and simply replied
Man does not live on bread alone but on the word of God.
Turn from him and worship me
And the kingdoms of the world are yours
Away from me with your evil ways
‘Cause I worship and I serve only God

(2:04) Chorus

(2:43) She was walking in the garden one day
When a snake slithered round her feet
Follow me right over to this tree
And I’ll give you something good to eat
I don’t know, are you sure? I don’t think it is right
It doesn’t matter just open your mouth and take a tasty bite
She said to him I think it’s a sin but boy does it look right
He said to her just take my word
And I promise that you’ll see the light

(3:10) Chorus
