God's Love Is Ours
God is always with us
He is forever there
Our Idol and our Mentor
Should we falter or despair.
He helps us when we're lonely
And no-one seems to care,
Without Him we would surely fail
And sink beyond repair.
But God's the One to give us strength
To cope each long day through
With love and understanding
He's our rock, so strong and true.
He sits in power and glory
Upon His throne on high
Waiting just to welcome us
To His Mansion in the sky.

Because 'We Believe
The name of 'God' is ever sacred
One name, beyond compare.
The Idol and the Mentor
Deep in our minds, the name is there.
God is comfort to the lonely
When no human seems to care;
without His name all hope would fail
the world would sink beyond repair.
The word of God gives us strength
to cope each long day through
how could we doubt life's wonder
of the Rock of Ages ever true.
We read the myths and stories
we can call Him by another name.
'Nature' said a boy of nine...
There is a connection, all is divine.
Thank the Heavens for God this day
the solemn church organ still will play;
'because we believe' we will sing the hymns
until Creation fades away.

Love Make Me Strong
(terry britten/sue shifrin)
Theres no power capable of
Coming between us--dividing our love
To be faithful I have sworn
Together we can weather the storm
Our tomorrows are ticking away
Our hands are tied--were victims of fate
In my darkness I will pray
For destiny to send me your way
Love make me strong
Give me the strength to carry on
Love make me strong
A tower of strength to lean upon
Love make me strong
The seven seas wont keep us apart
Not with an ocean of love in my heart
My devotion will see me through
Cause nothings gonna keep me from you
Love make me strong
Give me the strength to carry on
Love make me strong
A tower of strength to lean upon
Love make me strong
Oh its a sad sad story
True lovers forced to part
Shot down in all its glory
Youll hear the sound of broken hearts
My devotion will see me through
Cause nothings gonna keep me from you
Love make me strong
Give me the strength to carry on
Love make me strong
A tower of strength to lean upon
Love make me strong
Oh oh love make me strong
Love make me strong, make me strong
Love make me strong

Of Hopes For Our Future
Of hopes for our future why should we despair
As long as our lungs breathe in life giving air
Of happiness and prosperity all hopes cannot be gone
As long as the will is still there for to keep keeping on.
With the hard times we've met with we've learned to cope
And as long as there's life in us there's always hope
Our will to live stronger than our wish to die
And death is forever give life one more try.
So many have suicided beacuse of lost love
They could not hang in there when push came to shove
There cannot be any glory in suicide
Your will to live weak if for lost love you died.
Our crosses in life may be heavy to bear
But our will to live on keeps us hanging in there
Like the champion boxer who rise off the floor
To go toe to toe and to fight on some more.
Of hopes for our future why should we despair
When a broken heart is never beyond repair
And though one has to lose for another to win
When the going is at it's toughest the tough never give in.

A Rock In A Weary Land
My love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
Yes my love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
None of this moves me,
I should be weeping but it only hurts when I yawn
I let it blow through me, and its gone!
Im dressed like a scarecrow
Stripped of all my power, as if some judge in judgement said
Off with his great coat, and his head!
My love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
My love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
My love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
My love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
Meaningless movies
On the screen behind the band thats blowing flowing shapes
Half of their music is on tape
My mentor and champion is busy tilting at the windows of his stately home
The daemon hes grappling
Is his own!
My love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
My love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
My love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
Yes my love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
His letter lies open
His accusations flow like poison from his every word
My heart would be broken, but for her
The fag-end of winter
Im in shock! Im on the ropes! I dont know whats become!
She plucks the splinter from my thumb
My love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land
Yes my love is my rock
In the long, low, weary land

Here Comes The Knight
On the road with my sword
And my shield in my hand
Pressing on to the new day
This love will surely last forever
This love will surely last always
In the valley I see horsemen pass
Baby, baby, baby they dont want this love to last
Theres a battle for the throne
And its raging down in your soul
It says this love will surely last forever
This love will surely last always
Bridge:
Ive been accused of truth and alchemy
Ive been accused of speaking out for freedom too
I gave a demonstration in front of a crowd
A man saw my hands move and he began to shout
Here come horsemen through the pass
They say cast a cold eye on life, on death
Theres a battle for the throne
And it means to thine own self be true
And it says this love will surely last forever
This love will surely last always

What does God give Me?
What does God give me?
A love never ending, this I see;
When I feel no other love anymore,
And so my love for Christ is so sure.
What does God give me?
A Peace that dwells within me;
To help me cope, through each day,
So thank you Lord, is what I say.
What does God give me?
A joy unspeakable, full of Glory;
A happiness fills you within,
His joy keeps on going and going.
What does God give me?
Patience and strength to help me cope;
And I know God is there, gives me Hope,
So now every day, I Thank Him, for loving me.

Purpose In My Trial
Every minute, hour, every morning, He is with me into evening,
And He’s with me all night long, as He fills my heart with song,
A song that carries me all day, as I walk along that narrow way,
In the most trying time of my life, I’m led along by Jesus Christ.
The trial could be here to stay, but, Christ is with me every day,
And every day, He gives me hope, as The Lord helps me cope,
Though the times may look bleak, He helps me when I am weak,
In my weakness His power shows, as my strength in Him grows.
My hope is beyond what I know, as my Faith He allows to grow,
While His Spirit directs me above, all through the trial I speak of,
My trial that will not last forever, while God will forsake me never,
While I walk with Him earnestly, looking forward towards Eternity.
Though I am tried for a while, He helps me keep a cheerful smile,
From God’s peace, He put inside, as in Christ, my Savior I abide,
Through God’s strength and power, as I abide each day and hour,
Being a testimony, for all to see, of the Grace, Christ granted me.
It’s for God’s purpose that I’m here, so in my trial, I need not fear,
Or get weighed down in anxiety, as He knows what’s best for me,
For God, I am here as living proof, of God’s Power and His Truth,
A light, for those around my life, that they may know Jesus Christ.

Idea Of A Real Leader
Leadership is not an easy position
Many have the power but do not have the right ambition.
Somehow they fell into the job,
But no knowledge, strength or missing the right heart throb.
The real leader have to know how the work goes on,
Possibly went through all or many positions under the sun.
Must have an understanding what is possible
Not just ignore the worker & ask the impossible.
He/she must be strong but kind & flexible in that same time,
Understanding what can be done, not to get into grime.
Slow to anger or not at all with strong emotion,
Be able to see the other person's side,
Without falling into wrong conclusion.
Check yourself are you a mouse or a dictator?
Open your mind for more wisdom, be a good mentor,
That your people would love and ready to follow your lead,
Never be hated, ignored or feared for all your deed.

I Believe
Shattered dreams, worthless years,
Here am I encased inside a hollow shell,
Life began, then was done,
Now I stare into a cold and empty well
The many sounds that meet our ears
the sights our eyes behold,
Will open up our merging hearts,
And feed our empty souls
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever,
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever
Without despair we will share,
And the joys of caring will not be replaced,
What has been must never end
And with the strength we have won't be erased
When the truths of love are planted firm,
They won't be hard to find,
And the words of love I speak to you
will echo in your mind
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever,
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever,
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever
I'm so glad that I found someone to believe in again,
I'm so glad that I found someone to believe in again
God surely answered my prayer,
God surely answered by prayer,
You know God surely answered my prayer,
You know God surely answered my prayer,
God always will answer your prayers,
Believe in one who will answer my prayer,
Thank you God
Come on, let's fall in love,
You're the woman I've been waiting for,
Come on, let's fall in love,
You're the girl that I really adore,
Come on, let's fall in love...

Beyond The Cross
Beyond the cross God bids us die
That we in Christ should live
To later join our Groom on high
Through whom The Lord would give
With souls aglow with hearts ablaze
With Jesus as our guide
With selfless love through all our days
We’ll turn the stormy tide
Enduring life when born again
Continuing the fight
Upon loves throne we too may reign
In robes of brilliant white
But those who shrink from Jesus’ side
Who now God’s Son disown
They’ll fail to be a faithful bride
And join Him on His throne
Through faith we show our precious love
Through faith God sees we care
When faith restores to life above
Eternity we’ll share
When battles done, when still the sword
When victory’s song we sing
We’ll live forever with The Lord
Forever with our King
By hope, through faith we understand
A righteous soul will win
Glory awaits The Promised Land
Whom Jesus brings within
All this, because we’ve stood Christ true
Because we’ve run life’s race
Because we sought God’s will to do
In hope to see His face

God Hates This Heart
Whom have I in Heaven
But you
There is nothing on earth
I desire beside you
My heart and my strength
Many times they fall
But there is one truth
That always will prevail
God is the strength
Of my heart
God is the strength
Of my heart
God is the strength
Of my heart
And my portion forever
God is the strength
Of my heart
God is the strength

God is the strength
Of my heart
And my portion forever
Forever, forever

Whom do I have in Heaven
Certainly not you
Certainly not you
Oh no certainly not you
Oh cruel Lord
You've given me nothing on this earth
No, nothing
Nothing at all
Always every day
I feel passed over by you
So very passed over by you
Always it seems you are out only to make me fail
Only out to make me fail
You know
I know
We both know
This is the truth
You never want me
You never want me to prevail
God hates this heart
God hates this broken down, lonely heart
God hates this ragged, forsaken heart
And oh, oh God I fear he will forever more
God hates this heart
God hates this broken down, lonely heart
God hates this ragged, forsaken heart
And oh, oh God I fear he will forever more
Forever, forever, forever more
God hates this heart
God hates this broken down, lonely heart
God hates this ragged, forsaken heart
And oh, oh God I fear he will forever more
God hates this heart
God hates this broken down, lonely heart
God hates this ragged, forsaken heart
And oh, oh God I fear he will forever more

So Lonely
(ransford)
Every time I see you walking down
The street with my girl
I get a funny feeling
When I see you out with my girl
I get so lonely
I get so lonely without you
I get so lonely for you
See you everyday
And now I realize youre not mine
I know I just cant think
Of anything to do with my time
cos Im so lonely
I get so lonely without you
Waiting (oh Im waiting oh Im waiting)
Oh Im waiting (oh Im waiting yes Im waiting)
Waiting (oh Im waiting yes Im waiting)
For your loving
To keep me satisfied forever
To keep me satisfied forever
If you get tired of her
Just her right on back to my arms
And then well start anew
And know that we never will part
I get so lonely
I get so lonely without you
I get so lonely for you

But Don't Despair
Despair, if you must –
But how's it going to pull you through?
Despair, when you trust
Naught since then there's naught to do.
Despair, should you thrust
Aside your pride, your self-esteem.
And so despair, if it's dust,
The only substance that you deem.
Despair, when a gust
Of slightly breeze can break your stance.
And do despair, when lust
Is your interpretation of romance.
But don't despair, if you can care
About the plight of any other being.
And you can focus on the help,
Support, and altruistic further actions
For the seeing. Be believing,
As despair will start receding
All around – simply since you found
A way to steer you clear
From this: the very cause of your despair!
So give to others; give them all a helping lift:
Despair, you'll find will disappear –
And that has got to be a well-deserved
And saintly gift!
