The Oak Ridge Boys Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.I Love You So Much It Hurts

Lyricist:Floyd Tillman

I love you so much, it hurts me
Darling, that's why I'm so blue
I'm so afraid to go to bed at night
Afraid of losing you

I love you so much, it hurts me
And there's nothing I can do
I want to hold you, my dear, forever and ever
I love you so much, it hurts me so

I love you so much, it hurts me
Whether near or far away
I want to hold you, my dear, forever and ever
I love you so much, it hurts me so

I want to hold you, my dear, forever and ever
I love you so much, it hurts me so


2.Cryin' Again

Lyricist:Don Cook, Rafe Van Hoy

You told me that our love was forever
But you never really meant it that way
You said we had a sweet situation
But I'm waking up without you instead

Cryin' again
We're out of love again
Cryin' again
Like we've nearly always been
Cryin' again
I wonder when I won't be cryin' again

I thought we had a real understanding
But you never understood what I said
The magic didn't last like we planned it
But we've wasted all the feelings instead

Cryin' again
We're out of love again
Cryin' again
Like we've nearly always been
Cryin' again
I wonder when I won't be cryin' again

Cryin' again
We're out of love again
Cryin' again
Like we've nearly always been
Cryin' again
I wonder when I won't be cryin' again

Cryin' again
We're out of love again
Cryin' again
Like we've nearly always been
Cryin' again
I wonder when I won't be cryin' again


3.From Love To Love

Lyricist:Leslie Winn Satcher

Little mama has a baby that she's too young to keep
Little mama makes a big decision, it makes her weep
Oh, it makes her weep

A new mama gets a baby, she just can't believe
Prayers have been answered and it makes her weep
Oh, it makes her weep

And the child goes from love to love
From wanted to wanted
Don't you know angels sing above
When someone goes from love to love?

Proud mama pins on a rose on a rented tux
Her boy's gettin' married, she can barely look up
Tears runnin' she can barely look up

A proud mama slides a bobby pin in a long white veil
Time to give her little girl away and she tries to smile
Tears runnin' she tries to smile

And the girl goes from love to love
From wanted to wanted
Angels sing above when someone goes from love to love

A long time ago her daddy left behind
His only baby in a little town one night
All the new mom went to see was beauty lyin' in her arms
But the eyes of heaven could see across

And the child went from love to love
From wanted, oh, to wanted
Angels sing above when he went from love to love

'Coz when a child goes from love to love
From wanted to wanted
Angels sing above when he went from love to love


4.Mary Christmas

Lyricist:Michael Foster, Jimmy Hinson

It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home

I've been sitting by the phone, waiting for her call
One short ring and I'll be gone to get my baby doll
We're gonna rock around the clock down at the Legion hall
I can't wait to hear her say, 'Merry Christmas, merry away'

It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home

I wrote a letter to Santa Claus, just like I was a little child
And all I need is a little love, all wrapped up in her smile
I've been good but I've been better, just a little while
Must have read between the lines, it won't be long, you'll still
be mine

It's gonna be a merry Christmas
It's gonna be a merry Christmas

It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home

It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home


5.Love Song

Lyricist:Steven W Runkle

Tell you why I called on you
This is what we're going to do
Take this lovely gift of love
Sent to us from Heaven above

I said, baby I think that we can help each other see
(Oh, yeah)
We'd make this life that we're living
Seem more like it's supposed to be

Well, every man should have a good woman
Every woman should have a good man
Won't you stand along beside me
Let me do the best I can, take each other's heart in hand

I want to sing just a little love song
I want to sing for a little while
Back up and tow the line for you
I want to be your all in all

Bless you babe, I love you so
Love from whom all blessings flow
Me to you and you to me
This is how it's going to be

I said baby we're gonna know the joy
The years can bring
(Oh, yeah)
And every time I think about it
I just want to lift my heart and sing
(One more time)

Every man should have a good woman
Every woman should have a good man
Won't you stand along beside me
Let me do the best I can, take each other's heart in hand

Bless you babe, I love you so
Love from whom all blessings flow
Me to you and you to me
This is how it's going to be

I said baby we're gonna know the joy
The years can bring
(Oh, yeah)
And every time I think about it
I just want to lift my heart and sing
(One more time)


6.Did I Make A Difference

Lyricist:Bill Anderson, Rob Crosby

I'm caught up in the push and shove
The daily grind, burning time, spinning wheels
I wonder what I'm doing here
Day to day, year to year, standing still

Somewhere there's a teacher with a heart that never quits
Staying after school to help some inner city kids
A mother who's a volunteer, a soldier in the fight
I can't help but ask myself when I lay down at night

Did I make a difference in somebody's life?
What hurts did I heal? What wrongs did I right?
Did I raise my voice in defense of the truth?
Did I lend my hand to the destitute?
When my race is run, when my song is sung
Will I have to wonder, did I make a difference?
Did I make a difference?

I've been working hard to make a living
And forgetting what true living is
Taking more than giving, something's missing
Lord, how long can I go on like this?

There's a lonely old man down the street
And I should be ashamed
I've never been to see him, I don't even know his name
There's kids without their supper in my own neighborhood
Will I look back someday and say that I did all I could?

Did I make a difference in somebody's life?
What hurts did I heal? What wrongs did I right?
Did I raise my voice in defense of the truth?
Did I lend my hand to the destitute?
When my race is run, when my song is sung
Will I have to wonder, did I make a difference?
Did I make a difference?

When my race is run, when my song is sung
Will I have to wonder, did I make a difference?
Did I make a difference?
When my race is run, when my song is sung
Will I have to wonder, did I make a difference?
Did I make a difference? Did I make a difference?


7.The Baptism of Jesse Taylor

Lyricist:Dallas Frazier, Sanger D Shafer

Among the local taverns they'll be a slack in business
'Cause Jesse's drinkin' came before the groceries and the rent
Among the local women they'll be a slack in cheatin'
'Cause Jesse won't be steppin' out again

They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm
They all cried, 'Hallelujah' when Jesse's head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord

The scars on Jesse's knuckles were more than just respected
The county courthouse records tell all there is to tell
The pockets of the gamblers will soon miss Jesse's money
And the black eye of the law will soon be well

They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm
They all cried, 'Hallelujah' when Jesse's head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord

From now on Nancy Taylor can proudly speak to neighbors
Tell them how much Jesse took up with little Jim
Now Jimmy's got a daddy and Jesse's got a family
And Franklin County's got a lot more man

They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm
They all cried, 'Hallelujah' when Jesse's head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord

I know they baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm


8.Christmas Is Paintin' the Town

Lyricist:Dennis Burnside, Michael Foster

Can't you see it? Can't you hear it?
It's everywhere, it's Christmas
Sidewalk Santa, children with dreams
Asking him, please, it's Christmas

It's Christmas, it's paintin' the town
With red and silver bells and laughter all around
With scurrying people and greetings as you near
Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year

Hearts grow lighter, smiles get wider
It's in the air, it's Christmas
Choir's singin', church bells ringin'
Loved ones are here, it's Christmas

It's Christmas, it's paintin' the town
With red and silver bells and laughter all around
With the magical morning and children as they cheer
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

La la la la, la la la la
La la la la, it's Christmas
La la la la, la la la la
La la la la, it's Christmas

It's Christmas, it's paintin' the town
With red and silver bells and laughter all around
With the magical morning and children as they cheer
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

La la la la, la la la la
La la la la, it's Christmas
La la la la, la la la la
La la la la, it's Christmas

La la la la, la la la la
La la la la, it's Christmas
La la la la, la la la la
La la la la, it's Christmas


9.This Crazy Love

Lyricist:J.d. Hicks, R Murrah

It'll lead you on, it'll run you off
Hurt twice as long when you're double-crossed
It's hard to trust, this crazy love

It's a breaking heart at the bitter end
Bouncing back just to fall again
It's winning big a losing touch

Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love

It gives and it takes when it's strong
Nothing takes its place when it's gone
First it's good news and then it's goodbye
But the good is worth the tears that you cry

It'll fly you high, it'll shoot you down
Toss you hard in the lost and found
It pays love, this crazy love

It's a game of hearts, jokers wild
Come on look or a tender smile
Raise your hand or call your bluff

Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love

It'll lead you on, it'll run you off
Hurt twice as long when you're double-crossed
It's hard to trust, this crazy love

It's a breaking heart at the bitter end
Bouncing back just to fall again
It's winning big, a losing touch

Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love

Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love


10.Closer To Home

Lyricist:John Andrew Tirro, Tony Wood

He simply ate and drank my mornin' paper
Each day while it's dark
Then hustles off to greet folks
At the Highway 9 Walmart

His daughter flew back in last year
With their two boys, twelve and ten
Then she skipped town and left him
And his wife to care for them

It used to be Superman
Johnny Benson and George Jones
But lately I've been findin'
All my heroes closer to home

Every time I see a squad car
A-passin' by our house
I think our brave hearts behind badges
Ready when a call goes out

Seems since 9/11
It's been on my mind
How they wake up every mornin'
And put their lives on the line

It used to be Superman
Johnny Benson and George Jones
But lately I've been findin'
All my heroes closer to home

Got a life, found the lovin'
Got some children of my own
And some nights I tuck them in and stand there
In the dark alone

And I think back all my childhood
And the sweet times that I had
Now I see the sacrifice it took
From my Mom and Dad

It used to be Superman
Johnny Benson and George Jones
But lately I've been findin'
All my heroes closer to home
But lately I've been findin'
All my heroes closer to home


11.Because He Lives

Lyricist:Gloria Gaither, William Gaither

God sent His son and they called Him Jesus
He came to love, heal and forgive
He lived and He died to buy my pardon
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives

Because He lives I can face tomorrow
Because He lives all fear is gone
Because I know He holds the future
My life is worth a living just because He lives

Then one day I'm gonna cross that river
I'm gonna fight life's final, life's final war with pain
And then as death someday gives way to victory
I'm gonna see those lights of glory and know that my Savior
reigns

Because He lives I can face tomorrow
Because He lives all fear is gone
Because I know He holds the future
My life is worth a living just because He lives
My life is worth a living just because He lives


12.Jesus Is The Man For The Hour

Lyricist:Sammy Hall

Jesus, You're our man for the hour
Jesus, You're our man for the day
Keeping us together through Your power
Jesus, take our hand and wash our sins away

Jesus, lead us right and help us through
Lord, You know the wrong we all do
Lead, guide, direct our minds today
If You should leave us now, I know we'll lose our way

Jesus is the man for the hour
Jesus is the man for the day
Keeping us together through His power
Jesus, take our hand and wash our sins away

Jesus, You're our man for the hour
Jesus, You're our man for the day
Keeping us together through Your power
Jesus, take our hand and wash our sins away


13.Just A Little Talk With Jesus

Lyricist:Cleavant Derricks

I once was lost in sin but Jesus took me in
And then a little light from heaven fill my soul
He bathed my heart in love and He wrote my name above
And just a little talk with Jesus makes me whole

Now let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell Him all about our troubles
He will hear our faintest cry, He will answer by and by
And when you feel a little prayer wheel turnin'
And you will know a little fire is burnin'
Find a little talk with Jesus makes it right

I may have doubts and fears, my eye be filled with tears
But Jesus is a friend who watches day and night
I go to him in prayer, He knows my every care
And just a little talk with my Jesus makes it right

Now let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell Him all about our troubles
He will hear our faintest cry, He will answer by and by
And when you feel a little prayer wheel turnin'
And you will know a little fire is burnin'
You will find a little talk with Jesus makes it right

Now let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell Him all about our troubles
He will hear our faintest cry and He will answer by and by
And when you feel a little prayer wheel turnin'
And you will know a little fire is burnin'
You will find a little talk with Jesus makes it right
Right, right, right


14.Beautiful You

Lyricist:D Hanner

Please don't cry, oh my
You're so blue
But I'm here to help you
Beautiful you

You need someone to give you
A love that's true
Well, I'm here to help you
Beautiful you

Beautiful you
You'll need a man someday
Beautiful you
You know I'm here to stay

The days go by, oh my
What will you do
Take me to help you

Beautiful you
Our love will always grow

15.Mrs. Santa Claus

Lyricist:Skip Ewing

Now everybody's heard of Mrs. Santa Claus
Everybody knows she's Santa's wife
Every Christmas Eve, she sits up all alone
An' waits till he gets home again all right

He says, 'Don't you cry or worry, Mrs. Santa Claus
After all these years, the reindeer know their way
You know ho-ho I love you, Mrs. Santa Claus
An' I'll be home before it's Christmas day'

Now all the elves that make the toys for Santa Claus
Spend their one night off the whole year long
Singin' songs and dancin' 'round the Christmas tree
Fillin' Mrs. Santa Claus with cheer

Singin', 'Don't you cry or worry, Mrs. Santa Claus
After all these years, the reindeer know their way
You know ho-ho we love you, Mrs. Santa Claus
An' Santa will be home on Christmas day'

Well, if you ever think of Mrs. Santa Claus
Sitting by herself on Christmas Eve
Maybe you could write a special Christmas card
To help poor Mrs. Santa Claus believe

Sayin', 'Don't you cry or worry, Mrs. Santa Claus
After all these years, the reindeer know their way
You know ho-ho we love you, Mrs. Santa Claus
Santa will be home on Christmas day'

'You know ho-ho we love you, Mrs. Santa Claus
And Santa will be home on Christmas day'


16.Ozark Mountain Jubilee

Lyricist:S Anders, R Murrah

I hear a rooster crowin'
It's a frosty mornin'
I can almost see the sign
Goin' so fast I can't stop
I'm just a stones-throw from Little Rock
Headin' for that Missouri line

Don't need a map to get there
You can get there from anywhere
When you're goin' in your head
I can see the arms outreachin'
Just like the day I was leavin'
It's been oh, so many years

Let me get on the Frisco Silver Dollar Line
Take my time and see all I can see
Fiddler rosin up your bow
We'll have our own Ozark Mountain Jubilee

If I can't be a favorite son
I'll be the prodigal one
'Cause I've been gone too long
Oh, how the years have flown by
Oh, how I've realized
How much of me is gone

Let me get on the Frisco Silver Dollar Line
Take my time and see all I can see
Fiddler rosin up your bow
We'll have our own Ozark Mountain Jubilee


17.Farther Along

Lyricist:Jesse Randall Jr Baxter, Rev W B Stevens

Tempted and tried we're oft made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us?
Never molested though in the wrong

When we see Jesus coming in glory
When He comes down from His home in the sky
Then we shall meet Him in that bright mansion
We'll understand it all by and by

Farther along we'll know all about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by


18.I Know Who Holds Tomorrow

Lyricist:Ira Stanphill

I don't know about tomorrow
I just live from day to day
I don't borrow from the sunshine
For the skies may turn to gray

I don't worry for the future
For I know what Jesus said
And today He walks beside me
And He knows what is ahead

Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand
But I know who holds tomorrow
Oh, and I know who holds my hand

Oh, many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand
But I know who holds tomorrow
Oh, and I know who holds my hand


19.Bad Case of Missing You

20.American Beauty

Lyricist:Rick Alves, Randy Van Warmer

A '57 Chevy, red and white
American beauty
Levi blue jeans twistin' all night
American beauty

California girls, Rocky Mountain High
A Texas star in a cowboy's eyes
Shinin' like a diamond from sea to sea
American beauty, American beauty

A Zebco fishing pole fishin' downstream
American beauty
Strummin' on a '48 D-18
American beauty

Hot dogs, baseball, popcorn, football
A cheer for victory
NA SCAR race car number three
American beauty, American beauty

From north to south
From coast to coast
You can see it everywhere you go

Miles of wheat fields rolling to the skies
American beauty
Great white spaceship, enterprise
American beauty

Stampede of buffalo, sitting bull Geronimo
An eagle on wing
From Alabama with a banjo on my knee
American beauty, American beauty

She stands in the harbor in the city of dreams
American beauty
Prettiest face I've ever seen
American beauty

And she holds a torch and she won't let go
I love her with all my heart and soul
I'd give my life to keep her free
American beauty, American beauty
American beauty, American beauty


21.Everyday

Lyricist:D Loggins, J Martin

You know a smile never goes out of style
So brighten up the one that you wear
Let it shine and you just might find
You'll lighten up the load that you bear

You know with all the trouble and sorrow in the world
It seems like the least we can do
Just take that smile into the street
And share it with everybody you meet

Everyday I wanna shake somebody's hand
Everyday I wanna make somebody know that they can
Everyday I wanna try to show my brothers and my sisters
That I wanna help them along the way everyday, everyday

You know a kind work never goes unheard
But too often goes unsaid
And on the tongue of the old and the young
Gets swallowed up with pride instead

You know with all the trouble and sorrow in the world
It seems like the least we can do
Just take a kind word into the street
And share it with everybody you meet

And everyday I wanna shake somebody's hand
Everyday I wanna make somebody know that they can
Everyday I wanna try to show my brothers and my sisters
That I wanna help them along the way everyday, everyday

If they're lost I wanna show them the sunshine
If they look tossed I wanna throw them a lifeline
I wanna reach out my hand, oh yeah

And let 'em know there's a light
Down at the end of the road

If they're lost I wanna show them the sunshine
If they're tossed I wanna throw them a lifeline

And everyday I wanna shake somebody's hand, oh
Everyday I wanna make somebody know that they can
Everyday I wanna try to show my brothers and my sisters
That I wanna help them along the way everyday, everyday
Everyday, everyday

Everyday I wanna shake somebody's hand
Everyday I wanna make somebody know that they can
And everyday


22.An American Family

Lyricist:Bob Corbin

Worked all his life in the rail yards
Summer heat, winter cold
He sits by the fire, now he's retired
But he don't really feel all that old

She comes in from the kitchen
And sits on the arm of his chair
He looks up and says, â½Hey, lady, I love youâ
Runs his fingers through her hair

And there's a picture on the wall of Jesus in the garden
It's been there since they got the house in '53
Hey, they ain't no big deal whatever go down in history
It's just a little story of an American family

She waited for him in World War two
He fought the European campaign
Their son John spent two years in Nam
That war it wasn't the same

Billy's out in L.A., he's a lawyer now
They worry he's so far away
Jeannie got married and lives here in town
She's comin' over with the kids today

And there's a picture on the wall of Jesus in the garden
It's been there since they got the house in '53
Hey, there ain't no big deal, whatever go down in history
It's just a little story of an American family

But the whole world is different now
Blood's been spilled on our shores
In hard times we pull together
That's what a family's for

Hey, there ain't no big deal
It's written in our history
We're all part of the story of an American family
We're all part of the story of an American family


23.Jonah, Job & Moses

Lyricist:Bill Anderson, Tia M Sillers

They were solid as a rock and stubborn as a stone
Honest to the core and ornery to the bone
And the Good Book says their lot in life
Was not a bed of roses for Jonah, Job and Moses

Now Jonah knew the darkness in a belly of a whale
And Job saw tribulation and Moses went through hell
There were tears and fears and heartaches
In big and bigger doses for Jonah, Job and Moses

And me, I'm just a struggling soul
Ten thousand years removed
I've been lost out in the desert
I've been swallowed and consumed

And I pray to God for patience
Make me more like those three
Help me survive my troubles
Let me join that band of brothers
Let it be Jonah, Job, Moses and me

I've battled with some demons, I've lost the ones I've loved
I shook my fist at Jesus and I could not rise above
It was in the anger of those hours
I came to feel the closest to Jonah, Job and Moses

'Cause me, I'm just a struggling soul
Ten thousand years removed
I've been lost out in the desert
I've been swallowed and consumed

And I pray to God for patience
Make me more like those three
Help me survive my troubles
Let me join that band of brothers
Let it be Jonah, Job, Moses and me

Lord, let it be Jonah, Job, Moses and me
They were solid as a rock and stubborn as a stone


24.I Wish You Could Have Turned My Head

Lyricist:S Throckmorton

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that
strong
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that
strong
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone

The first time I laid eyes on, you got caught up in your sway
I thought I didn't have a chance and then you looked my way
From the longin' to the lovin', girl, we've made it all the way
But for all the hunger in my eyes my heart has had to pay

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that
strong
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that
strong
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that
strong
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that
strong
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone

Well, I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart
alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong


25.Little Things

Lyricist:Billy Barber

It's the way you kiss me when we're walkin' down the street
It's the words you whisper when we're driftin' off to sleep
A certain way you touch me, the way you say, 'Hello'
Baby, it's the little things that make me love you so

The way you pour your coffee in the early mornin' light
The way you call my name out in the middle of the night
How you sit for hours singin' with the radio
Baby, it's the little things that make me love you so

It's not the memories or all that we've been through
It's not the distant dreams that keep me coming back to you
It's not the promises that keep me warm at night
It's just the every day, it's just the safe and sound
It's just our home sweet home

And when we're old and gray now
And the kids have gone away
We're alone together I may turn to you and say
There's something I forgot to tell you

And by now I think you'll know
Baby, it's the little things that make me love you so
Whoa, whoa, baby, it's the little things
That make me love you so

Walkin' in the park, kissin' in the dark
The little things that baby makes me feel alright now
Baby, it's the little things that make me love you
Baby, it's the little things that make me love you so


26.Touch A Hand, Make A Friend

Lyricist:Homer Banks, Carl Hampton, Raymond Jackson

Can't you feel it in your bones?
A change is coming on
From every walk of life
People seeing the light

Can't you feel it in your heart now?
A new thing is taking shape
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can

Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can

I've read about you my friend
Ain't it time that you come on in?
We can find a better way
Why don't you join us today?

Can't you feel it in your heart now?
A new thing is taking shape
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can

Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can

It's been reflected in the attitude
Of other people just like you
Reach out and touch a hand
And make a friend if you can

Can't you feel it in your heart now?
A new thing is taking shape
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can

Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can

Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can


27.Where The Soul Never Dies

Lyricist:Wayne Raney

To Canaan's land I'm on my way where the soul of man never dies
My darkest night will turn to day where the soul of man never
dies
There will be no sad farewell, there will be no tear dimmed eyes
Where all His deeds, His joy and love and the soul of man never
dies

A rose is blooming there for me where the soul of man never dies
And I shall live eternally where the soul of man never dies
There will be no sad farewell, there will be no tear dimmed eyes
Where all His deeds, His joy and love and the soul of man never
dies

There will be no sad farewell, there will be no tear dimmed eyes
Where all His deeds, His joy and love and the soul of man never
dies
There will be no sad farewell, there will be no tear dimmed eyes
Where all His deeds, His joy and love and the soul of man never
dies


28.Loves Me Like a Rock

Lyricist:Paul Simon

When I was a little boy
(When I was just a boy)
And the devil called my name
(When I was just a boy)
Say now who do
(Who)
Who do you think you're fooling?
(Who do you think you're fooling?)

I'm a consecrated boy
(When I was just a boy)
Singin' in Sunday choir
Oh my mama loves, she loves me
She get down on her knees and hug me

Woah she loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages
She loves me
She love me, love me, love me, love me

When I was grown to be a man
(Grown to be a man)
And the devil would call my name
(Grown to be a man)
Say now who do
(Who)
Who do you think you're fooling?
(Who do you think you're fooling?)

I'm a consummated man
(Grown to be a man)
Such an impurity
Oh my mama loves me, she loves me
She get down on her knees and hug me

Woah she loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages
She loves me
She love me, love me, love me, love me

And if I was a president
(Was a president)
The minute congress call my name
(Was a president)
Say now who do
(Who)
Who do you think you're fooling?
(Who do you think you're fooling?)

I've got the presidential seal
(Was a president)
I'm on the presidential podium
Oh my mama loves me, she loves me
She get down on her knees and hug me

Woah she loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages
She loves me
She love me, love me, love me, love me
(Loves me like a rock)
She love me, love me, love me, love me
(Loves me like a rock)

She love me, love me, love me, love me
(Loves me like a rock)
She love me, love me, love me, love me
(Loves me like a rock)
She love me, love me, love me, love me
(Loves me like a rock of ages)
Love, she love me
(Loves me like a rock)

She love me, love me, love me, love me
(Loves me like a rock)
She love me, love me, love me, love me
(Loves me like a rock)


29.Blow My House Down

You can huff, you can puff
And you can trash my name all around
But you ain't gonna blow my house down
You ain't gonna blow my house down

You can howl, you can prowl
And you can romp and stomp on the ground
But you ain't gonna blow my house down
You ain't gonna blow my house down

Open up the good book
Take yourself a good look
Ever since the start of time
Devil, you've been lyin'
And killin' and robbin' us blind

Spittin' out a big talk
Struttin' with the big walk
Yeah you want to clean my clock
But devil you can't
Because I'm standing on the solid rock

You can huff, you can puff
And you can trash my name all around
But you ain't gonna blow my house down
You ain't gonna blow my house down

You can howl, you can prowl
And you can romp and stomp on the ground
But you ain't gonna blow my house down
You ain't gonna blow my house down

Yeah, you want to break me
So that you can make me
Knuckle underneath your bluff
Aiming at my throat

Charging like a big bad wolf
Yeah you got a big bite
But you lost the big fight
Jesus won the victory
So devil back off
'Cause the winner is living in me

You can huff, you can puff
And you can trash my name all around
But you ain't gonna blow my house down
You ain't gonna blow my house down

You can howl, you can prowl
And you can romp and stomp on the ground
But you ain't gonna blow my house down
You ain't gonna blow my house down

You can huff, you can puff
And you can trash my name all around
But you ain't gonna blow my house down
You ain't gonna blow my house down

You can howl, you can prowl
And you can romp and stomp on the ground
But you ain't gonna blow my house down
You ain't gonna blow my house down


30.Troublin' Mind

Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind

Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind

Mary and Martha, Peter and John
Mary and Martha, Peter and John

God's gonna ease my troublin' mind

Down by the graveyards stood and tall
Down by the graveyards stood and tall
Down by the graveyards stood and tall
There laid the long rail as well as the short

Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind

Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
God's gonna ease my troublin' mind

If you get there before I do
If you get there before I do
If you get there before I do
You can tell my friends I'm a-comin' too

Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind

Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
Troublin' mind, troublin' mind
God's gonna ease my troublin' mind
