Wade in the water
Wade in the water children
Wade in the water
God’s gonna trouble the water
Who’s that young girl dressed in red
Wade in the water
Must be the children that Moses led
God’s gonna trouble the water
Who’s that young girl dressed in white…
Must be the children of the Israelite…
Who’s that young girl dressed in blue…
Must be the children that’s coming through…
I Can’t Even Walk/Precious Lord
Colbert Croft and Joyce Croft/Thomas A Dorsey)
I thought that number one
Would surely be me
I thought that I could be
What I wanted to be
I thought that I could build
On life’s sinking sand
But I can’t even walk
Without you holding my hand
I can’t even walk without
You holding my hand
The mountain’s too high
And the valley’s too wide
Down on my knees
I learned to stand
And I can’t even walk
Without you holding my hand
I thought I had done
A lot on my own
I thought I could make it
All alone
I thought of myself
Woa as a mighty woman
But I can’t even walk
Without you holding my hand
Through the storm
Through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand precious Lord
Lead me home
Cause I can’t even walk
Without you holding my hand
Little Lamb
(Libby Thomas)
Mary had a little Lamb
His life was pure as snow
And everywhere that Mary went
Her little Lamb did follow
She knew He was God’s only son
And for her sins He would pay
And as she looked toward heaven
With tears in her eyes
This was all she could say
Oh little Lamb
May I be like you
Following your Shepherd
Faithful strong and true
Oh little Lamb
My heart’s an open door
To live within your footprints
And love you even more
Mary’s little Lamb was slain
Our lives now pure as snow
And everywhere that He will lead
My heart is going to follow
He came to heal my brokenness
He makes my life no longer hollow
And as I look toward heaven
With a tear in my eye
This shall be my heart’s cry
And anywhere that He will lead
My heart is going to follow
Because this lamb became my King
Old Friends
(Gloria Gaither, William J. Gaither and J.D. Miller)
Old friends
After all of these years
Old friends
Through the laughter and tears
Old friends
What a find, what a priceless treasure
Old friends
Like a rare piece of gold
My old friends
Makes it good to grow old
Old friends
Through it all I will hold to old friends
Oh God must have known
That some days on our own
We would lose the will to go on
That’s why He sent friends like you
Along
Old friends
Yes you’ve always been there
Old friends
We’ve had more than our share
Old friends
I’m a rich millionaire
In old friends
I Know My God Cares for Me
(Ken Harnden and Andrew Martin)
I know my God cares for me
I know my God cares for me
He gives me strength
When it seems like hope is gone
He picks me up when I am down
Sets my feet on solid ground
I know that my God He cares for me
I woke up this morning
To go and face a new day
Don’t know where to begin
So many things to do
And I wouldn’t even try
To take the world on for one day
Without the love of my Lord
To see me through
Just take a look around
And see a world that’s going crazy
It seems true love is seldom found
And that no one seems to care
But there is one true love
That I can always count on
And there’d be no world for me
Without Him there
Oh Broken Heart
(Steven Darrell Medlock)
You gave your heart to someone
You’d spend forever with
That special one who filled
Your every dreams
But sometimes dreams
Don’t work out like
We thought they would
Now you’re alone
With painful memories
Oh broken heart
It’s time to let the Savior come
And heal the wounds
You’re hiding in your soul
Oh broken heart
Let Jesus pour the oil and wine
Give Him your pain
He’ll mend and make you whole
It’s always hard to say goodbye
To those we love
There’s no remorse
In death’s grim frigid hand
But there is peace
And comfort for
Your grieving heart
Let Jesus fill the void
You have within
Just a Closer Walk with Thee
(Public Domain)
I am weak but Thou art strong
Jesus keep me from all wrong
I’ll be satisfied as long
As I walk let me walk close to Thee
Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it Jesus is my plea
Daily walking close to Thee
Let it be dear Lord let it be
When my feeble life is o’er
Time for me will be no more
Guide me gently safely o’er
To Thy kingdom shore
To Thy shore
The Rose
(Amanda McBroom)
Some say love it is a river
That drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love it is a hunger
An endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
And you its only seed
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul afraid of dyin'
That never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose
(Add’l verse: Sherry Anne Lints)
He’s the Lily of the Valley
The bright and Morning Star
He’s the rose, The Rose of Sharon
Yes, to me, He is The Rose…
To Be Forgiven
(Michael Waddle)
Wish I could turn back time
Look back without regret
Walked with His hand in mine
The years before we met
But with that nail scarred hand
He wiped away my past
To be forgiven, I only had to ask
We can’t go back again
And change yesterday
Undo mistakes we’ve made
Take back the things we say
But mercy covers sin
It’s not too great a task
To be forgiven
You only have to ask
Sometimes it’s hard to see
I guess I’ll never know
The worth He found in me
Or why He loved me so
Yet when I called His name
I was set free at last
To be forgiven, I only had to ask
Singing this Song to You
(Sherry Anne Lints and Nick Bruno)
I searched a lifetime
For the right words to say
Just what you mean to me
So I’ll give you my heart
And all that I have
All that I am is Yours
‘Cause You are shelter
From the rain
You are healing for my pain
You make all things new
Like the morning dew
You are love that will not change
You are worthy of my praise
And Lord, I’m singing this song to You
I give you my life Lord
And all that I have
I’ll lay down my plans
Help me understand
That you are near to me
Even when I cannot see
Lord you are all to me
I’ve seen a lot of places
And I’ve done a lot of things
But I’ve never known a love
That could change everything
