Run For the Lord
Verse 1:
I can see you're running for your life
Trying to beat the knife
You're scared it's going to run you through
You're running blind surrounded by the night
Why don't you look to the Light?
And change your point of view
Chorus:
I know a place even the least can go
And the love you'll find is more than you can know
Oh the raise is hard down the straight and narrow road
But when you run for the Lord you never run alone
Verse 2:
Just follow God and He'll keep you on track
You can't afford to look back
There's nothing there for you
And when it's tough keep your eyes on the prize
And then you'll realize just what His power can do

The One I Long to See
Verse 1:
Many come and many go
But You remain the same I know
Through all my joy and tears
My closest Friend, You've always been there
Verse 2:
There was a time the fire died
Quenched from within by the wind of pride
But the flames now leap in a holy dance
In praise to the God of the second chance
Chorus:
Oh Lord I love You with all my heart and mind
Your name and Your throne endureth for all time
You give Your grace when I am weak
Forever Your face I'll seek
And all my days I'll spend in praise
To the One I long to see
Verse 3:
Like the deer, my soul does thirst
After the One who loved me first
Oh mighty God my holy King
You're the reason I live the reason I sing

SPACE
We were just out on the final frontier
Seeking strange new life both far and near
Everything seemed calm and routine
Then all at once to our surprise
A strange figure caught our eyes
Appearing before us there on the main view screen
He started to scream, he started to yell
Talkin’ about heaven and hell
Like nothing we had ever heard before
I said, “Mr. Spock can you identify?”
He answered me without battin’ an eye
“Sir it’s that crazy evangelist from Rigel 4
“Now let me see if I’ve got this right
It seems he’s bought a satellite
And now he’s preaching all over space
I know this may sound hard to believe
But according to the reports I’ve just received
It says that even Klingons are getting saved.”
Chorus 1:
Cause no matter where you are
No matter where you go
If you’re way out in space or down here below
The word of God will find you
On that, you can depend
So if your heart's not right
I suggest that you repent
Well his signal came in loud and strong
And I tell ya friends it wasn’t long
Before his preaching filled up the Enterprise
Then one by one reports came in
Of how all the crew had turned from sin
And all of them had teardrops in their eyes
I chanced a glance at Doctor McCoy
His face was all lit up with joy
I said, “Bones, Bones, Bones, what have you done?”
He said, “This may come as quite a shock
But I just laid my hands on Mr. Spock
And now that pointy-eared dude speaks in tongues
I thought that was all a bunch of baloney
Until I heard Scotty’s testimony
With special music by Chekov and Sulu
I said, "no more, no more that's it"
And quicker than you can pop a zit
I knelt down and became a Christian too
Chorus 2:
Cause no matter where you are
No matter where you go
If you’re way out in space or down here below
The word of God will find you
On that, you can depend
So if your heart's not right
I suggest that you repent
Oh, if your heart's not right
I suggest that you repent

Shouting out loud to the Rock of salvation

He’s the Great King forever more
He’s the Great King forever and ever
He’s the Great King forever more

Awesome Is The Sight
Awesome is the sight of Your holiness
Majestic is Your purity
Your righteousness shines brighter than the sun
On me… on me
(Repeat)
Chorus:
Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord of hosts
Glory, glory, glory
To Your matchless name
Worthy, worthy, worthy
Is the Lamb that was slain
That was slain

Just To Be
Vs. 1
Just to be in Your presence
Just to dwell in Your holy place
Just to feel Your hand upon me
For this, I give my life away
Chorus:
Oh that my lips may exalt Your righteous name forever
That my eyes may behold the beauty of Your courts
That my life may display Your kindness and mercy
As a servant in the house of the Lord
As a servant in the house of the Lord
Vs. 2
For Your glory and for the kingdom
For the pleasure of my Lord
Let my life be an offering
This will be my greatest reward

Missed my Prime Time Blues
Verse 1:
I love to sleep I love to snore
The alarm goes off I want five minutes more
I should be up seeking God just like the preacher said
But instead, I lay here like a big o'l slug in the bed
Before I know it, its a quarter past eight
I've got to get to work, I'm already late
I grab a PopTart and a bowl of Mini-Wheats
A little Aquafresh and then I'm out on the street with those...
Chorus:
Missed my prime time blues
It's just the worst way to start the day
And there ain't no excuse
What I need is some of that self-discipline
Cause my spiritual man is getting mighty thin
Life is so hard with those missed my prime time blues
Verse 2:
While at the job and all day long
The devil's got me whooped, seems like everything's going wrong
My outlook is dim and my attitude stinks
All because I had to have that extra forty winks
But days like this are gonna be a thing of the past
I'm gonna seek the Lord and hey, I might even fast
And in my Bible, I'm gonna bury my nose
Cause that's the only way you can get rid of those...
Chorus:
Talkin' bout those, m-m-m-m-missed my prime time blues
It's just the worst way to start the day
And there ain't no excuse
What I need is some of that self-discipline
Cause my spiritual man is getting mighty thin
Life is so hard with those...
I said life is so hard with those undisciplined, low-down, unproductive
missed my prime time blues!

Late Night Buffets
Verse 1:
When I see you, all we've gone through, where we've been
You've always been such an example of Him
Through all the years, the laughter and tears
So unselfishly you put up with me
In spite of my childish fears
Chorus:
With all those late night buffets
Cap'n Crunch and Frosted Flakes
And assorted nuggets of truth
My life has been spared from going nowhere
Cause you let God love me through you
Verse 2:
We've come along way since that first day that we talked
From a boy to a man you taught me to stand and to walk
Not just your time, but your life you did impart
And instilled in me a desire to be
A man after God's own heart
Chorus:
With all those late night buffets
Apple Jacks and Special K
And assorted nuggets of truth
My life has been spared from going nowhere
Cause you let God love me through you

Demas
Verse 1:
I must say that I don't understand
how you could just walk away
You were so "on fire" but the total cost
you weren't willing to pay
I guess the pleasures of this life
meant more to you than winning the prize
And you laid down the righteous crown
And Demas where are you now?
Verse 2:
Beneath the stars of the Corinthian sky,
we shared out hearts and dreams
You were so zealous to preach the Word,
to help others believe
But you let your guard down
and the love for the world slowly blew your flame out
And you laid down the righteous crown
And Demas where are you now?
Bridge:
You can't serve two masters, you'll serve the one you love
You can't keep your mind on earthly things and be seated with Christ above
Verse 3:
But I know that He still loves you,
I know He understands
There's nothing you've done that He can't forgive,
See His outstretched hand
How long will you wait?
Return to Him before it's too late
Because one day every knee will bow
Oh, Demas where are you now?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?

Sweet Holy Spirit
Verse 1
Father in heaven
You’re the one my heart seeks after
Like the deer pants for the water,
So my soul pants after You
I stand here before You
Just to worship and adore You
For You alone are holy
And worthy of all praise
Verse 2
Jesus my Brother,
My Lord and my Messiah
My one life’s ambition
Is to know You as You are
Your blood makes me righteous
Let me grow up in Your likeness
That all may glorify You
And proclaim that You are King
Verse 3
Sweet Holy Spirit
Come and fill Your temple
We desire Your presence
With all of our hearts
Move now among us
Let Your holy fire consume us
Till all self is forsaken
And we love the world no more
