You Need A Saviour
Words:deborah d. smith
Music: michael w. smith
Made a friend last night, or you thought you did
Had a drink, had a talk, took a drive
Shared the night, gave up a part of your soul
Now shes gone and youre a little less alive.
Shake it off, never let your feelings begin
But your defenses are down and the fear is closing in.
Chorus:
Yes, you really need a saviour
Somehow youve known it all along
Yes, you really need a saviour
You know youve heard it for so long
Yes, you really need a saviour
Someone to come and lead you on
You need a saviour
You need a saviour
Its time
Told yourself today just for your own sake
What was lost wouldnt cost anyway
Lifes a one night stand, this time youll win
The up and down, life-long game that you play.
Shake it off, never let your feelings begin
But your defenses are down and the fear is closing in.
Chorus

Joy Comes In The Morning
JOY COMES IN THE MORNING
I could not see for the tears
Flowing down my face
As I thought of His unfailing love
What amazing grace.
I wept for Him but a moment
And then my tears were dry
For joy came in the morning
When my Saviour heard my cry.
Joy came in the morning
When the Saviour heard my cry
Weeping endureth but for a moment
Now I live with Him inside.
I'll tell the world this is not secret
But let this truth be known
Joy comes in the morning
With Jesus on the throne.
I've found true satisfaction
He's everything I need
He is my Bread, my Water
My Living Head indeed
The paths of sin are weary
Now step into the Light
Trust in this sinners' Saviour
Find in Him new life.

One Step Into The Light
One step into the light
One step away from night
Its the hardest step youre gonna take
The ship to take you there
Is waiting at the head
Of the stairs that lead up through your opening mind
Above the dark despair
Shines a light that we can share
Close your eyes and look up in between your brows
Then slowly breathing in
Feel the life force streaming in
Hold it there, then send it back to him
All the old things are returning
Cosmic circles ever turning
All the truth weve been yearning for
Life is our saviour, saviour, saviour, save your soul
The river of living breath
Is flowing through the sun
He was there before the earth began
The world will drag on you
Use his love to pull you through
Find the mission of your life and start to be
All the old things are returning
Cosmic circles ever turning
All the truth weve been yearning for
Life is our saviour, saviour, saviour, save your soul
Theres one thing I can do
Play my mellotron for you
Try to blow away your city blues
Your dreams are not unfound
Get your feet back on the ground
The truth will set us free, we cannot lose
We cannot love, we just have to choose

Phantoms Of Death
There are phantoms here on earth who take away our lives
They kill your kids and they rape your wives
They rip your flesh tear your heart take you down to hell
They dont give a damn on any kind of life
Phantoms bring evil, destruction and death
Night after night the same old game
They all look so harmless but deep in their hearts
Satan is lurking, and he will break out
Always someone at your back only waiting to attack
Chorus phantoms of death, phantoms of death
The empire of deceivers is built upon your fear
Youll have to lose it cause the end is near
Warheads, armies stand to strike I know it isnt right
I wanna get out of here I dont wanna die
Infernal destruction of fire youll burn
Then youll be helpless but its not too late
Stand up right now and youll be the winner
Or satan will get you, take you forever
Genocide everywhere, wheres the saviour of this world
Chorus phantoms of death, phantoms of death
Where is he the promised saviour the one wholl save the earth
Perhaps hell come to bury us but then itll be too late
Who are they who are the phantoms who will end our lives
Its you and me, you and me open up your eyes
Phantoms bring evil, destruction and death
Night after night the same old game
They all look so harmless but deep in their hearts
Satan is lurking, and he will break out
We are all parasites of this world we shall die

The Last Letter
Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
Sitting alone up in your empty room
In the stillness of the night
Where all the many dreams that used to carry you
Are no longer in sight
You put your feelings down in black and white
A sad, disturbing reply
That you dont really want to face another night
So youre saying goodbye
But do you know that youre saying goodbye
To a lifetime
Chorus:
Well, Ive got to tell you theres another way
To be free to be complete
But, youve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat (dont give in)
And Im here to tell you theres another way
To consume a hungry heart
All the love you need is just a prayer away
Let it in to where you are
Youve made it to the edge of seventeen
Thinking now youve reached the end of the line
But theres so much of life that you have never seen
Now you wont have the time
You say that you dont hear the music play
So youre ready to give up the dance
Now that nothing really matters anyway
Oh, you give up your chance
But do you know that you give up your chance
At a lifetime
Chorus:
Well, Ive got to tell you theres another way
To be free--to be complete
But youve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat (dont give in)
And Im here to tell you theres another way
To consume a hungry heart
Jesus is waiting just a prayer away
Let him in to where you are
You put your feelings down in black and white
A sad, disturbing reply
That you dont really want to face another night
So youre saying goodbye
But do you know that youre saying goodbye
To a lifetime

How did I ever come this far without u, baby?

Never did u ever give me reason 2 doubt u, baby

Whenever I look in your eyes, I can see a paradise
Ure my saviour, ure all I ever need (saviour)
I used 2 say, no one lover could have me, no one lover
That was before my eyes had seen the light
2 make love with another, uh uh, I couldnt do it, no way (couldnt do it)
Ure my saviour (saviour), ure the only one that does it right
Cant u see were like 2 petals from the same flower, baby?
Were like 2 branches from the same tree
Whenever I look in your eyes, I can see a paradise
Ure my saviour, ure all I ever need
What would I be without your love around me?
(oh, what would I be, oh, without your love? )
What would I see, u constantly astound me

Were like 2 branches from the same tree

Whenever I look in your eyes, I can see a paradise

The Champion
Gaze upon the stake,
Flames will soon start to embrace
Condemned, auto da f,
Shes about to fall from grace
In the land of the rising sun
Shadows are falling again
The die is cast, the future and past
Coming to her at last
Oh, oh, oh
All she needed was a champion
Oh, oh, oh
Crying for a saviour to fight for her life
Behold, the freedom cries
By the dying of the light
Too late to justify
For vindication upon this night
In the land of the rising sun
Shadows are falling again
From out of nowhere, a rider declared
To answer her final prayer
Oh, oh, oh
He stood up to be the champion
Oh, oh, oh
He became the saviour that fought for her life
Face to face, eye to eye
The saviour fought to save her pride
Far beyond the starlit skies, the encounter went on
Gaze upon the stake,
As the flames start to embrace
A life, an act of faith,
Long-lost gone without a trace
In the land of the rising sun
Shadows are falling again
The die is cast for the future and past
Came for her at last
Oh, oh, oh
All she needed was a champion
Oh, oh, oh
Crying for a saviour to fight for her
Oh, oh, oh
He stood up to be the champion
Oh, oh, oh
He became the saviour that fought for her life

Everybody
While out sailing on the ocean
While out sailing on the sea
I bumped into the saviour
And he said pardon me
I said jesus you look tired
He said jesus so do you,
Sit down son
cause I got some fat to chew
Chorus:
Everybody needs somebody that they can talk to
Someone to open up their ears
And let that trouble through
Now you dont have to sympathize
Or care what they may do
But everybody needs somebody that they can talk to
Well he spoke to me of morality
Starvation, pain and sin
Matter of fact the whole dang time
I only got a few words in
But I wont squawck
Let em talk
Hell its been a long long time
And any friend thats been turned down
Is bound to be a friend of mine
(repeat chorus)
Now we sat there for an hour or two
Just eatin that gospel pie
When around the bend come a terrible wind
And lightning lit the sky
He said so long son I gotta run
Appreciate you listening to me
And I believe I heard him sing these words
As he skipped out across the sea
(repeat chorus)

This is my dedication
This is my dedication
Im not a saint but stand accused
Youre with someone who thinks loves the same as being used
And now suspicious minds may say its over
Over
Whether I live or die, you are my saviour
Youre my saviour
Its my dj vu, sweet dj vu
Through the feast or famine Ill be with you
Sheltering arms reach out to you
This is my dedication
This is my dedication
This is my dedication
This is my dedication
The silent nights, I cry your name
Youre with someone who says
They can get you through your pain
These golden years keep on returning
Its hurting
Precious and few
Youre my saviour, youre my saviour
Its my dj vu, sweet dj vu
Through the feast or famine Ill be with you
Sheltering arms reach out to you
This is my dedication
This is my dedication
This is my dedication
And cherish what theyve lost
When often its too late
Its my dj vu (memories of you)
Sweet dj vu (keep coming through)
Through the feast or famine
Ill be with you (all that is true)
Sheltering arms reach out to you
Oh baby

Confidant
We all need a confidant
to tell our deepest secrets to,
the ones we cannot share with our spouse.
Someone who will not get angry
at anything we say.
Someone who we can trust
to not spread around
what we have to say.
If we do not have a confidant
things begin to play on our mind
and the problems within them
begin to fester out of control.
Just waiting for us to release
what we have bottled up for so long.
There is no right or wrong in feelings
only our own guilt we sometimes feel.
We all need a confidant
who we can talk to.
They will be the saviour of our soul,
helping us to ride across the rocky terrains
our lives sometimes move along.

Last Night I Dreamed Of Heaven
LAST NIGHT I DREAMED OF HEAVEN
WRITER HANK WILLIAMS
Last night I dreamed of heaven and I saw my mother there
Standing with all the angels on a golden stair
I thought I heard her whisper welcome home my boy
Last night I dreamed of heaven and it filled my heart with joy
I heard the angels singing songs of peace and rest
And then there was a silence
Each eye looked toward the west
There sat my Saviour on his golden throne
Last night I dreamed of heaven my eternal home sweet home
Last night I dreamed of heaven that land so pure and sweet
And the joy within me made my glad heart weep
I was there with my Saviour free from grief and strife
Last night I dreamed of heaven the land of eternal life
I heard the angels singing songs of peace and rest
And then there was a silence
Each eye looked toward the west
There sat my Saviour on his golden throne
Last night I dreamed of heaven my eternal home sweet home

To Be Alive Again
Doin time... where it takes you
You know its time that can break you
We get caught in a moment...
Just steep walkin most of our lives
In your mind (when you need it)
With a song (to help you believe it)
You can reinvent your world
Anytime you like
Chorus:
To be alive again...
Wakin up from where you been
Younger now than you were then
Youre comin round again
Do you remember when...
Life was so much simpler then
Like summer nights that never end
To be alive again
Find the smile...
Youve been missin
Theres someone that you could be kissin
So open your eyes and youll see
Whats been there all along
Letting go (of your feelings)
With doubt and fear (you dont need it)
Break the chains on the heart of the soul
Thats been waiting so long
Repeat chorus
To be alive again
Youre not among the walkin wounded anymore
Theres a time to fall
Theres a time to rise above it all
Repeat chorus
To be alive again

Silent night, holy night.
All is calm, all is bright.

Holy infant so tender and mild.
Sleep in heavenly peace,

Shepherds quake at the sight.
Glorious strains from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing alleluia.

What good is it..
For a man to, gain the world..
Yet lose his own soul, in the process?
[bell] God loves you, yes he does
Said youre alright with him
[dmx] I wonder..
Chorus: regina bell (repeat 2x)
I know you never seen him but dont fight with him
Youre gonna make it through the night to the light with him
Uhh, youre alright with him
I said youre alright with him
[dmx]
Im callin out to you lord, because I need your help
See once again Im havin difficulty savin myself
Behavin myself, you told me what to do, and I do it
But every and now and then, gets a little harder to go through it
Losin friends, day by day
Im in so much pain when Im here lord, please take me away
I put you here to do a job, and your work aint done
To live is to suffer, but youre still my son
And there will be a time when you shine as bright as the stars
But there wont be a, his or hers, just ours
Then youll see what Ive been tryin to show you, all these years
Do the right thing; cause after the tears, come the cheers
I will, my lord, with my heart, and my soul
Thats gonna be how I roll, from now until Im old
Lead and Ill follow, you take away the sorrow
Ima sleep on what you said and holla back tomorrow
Chorus
[dmx]
I want you to know lord, that for what youve given me Im thankful
Sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, Im grateful
You gave us power in our words, so I think before I speak
And that way when I speak, they know Im here to teach
Cant tell em nothin wrong, cause I love em too much
I reach a lot of people, and lord, Im lovin the touch
But deep inside, Ive got somethin thats workin against
Everything I know is right, what I know makes sense
Thats when you must fight harder, than youve ever fought before
Cause what youve got goin on inside you is a war
Between good and evil, be careful of those who wanna be you
They smile, but are not really happy when they see you
Be careful of the ones that always wanna get you high
Cause when the time comes, that onell let you die
Listen to me! Im here, but I can only help you
If you want me to help, what do you want for yourself?
Chorus
[dmx]
My lord, my saviour, dont judge my behaviour
But instead, take whats in my heart and put it in my head
See I guess I really never knew, how proud I made you
My life is yours, my soul I gave you
I dont know if Ill do good enough (hes by your side)
And we both know the hood is rough (right by your side)
Sometimes I dont know what to do (x, dry your eyes)
But I know what I gotta do (itll be alright)
You keep givin me the word, and Ill put it to song
Talk to me, Ill talk to them, and we cant go wrong
This is the start of somethin strong, and this is just the start of it
Praises to you my lord, for lettin me be a part of it
I was that kid that, been there, did that
Became ashamed so I hid that
But, aint no longer with that
Use me as an example - if I can do, then they can too
With the lord behind us, there aint nothin that we cant do
Chorus
[regina bell]
Hes by your side
Right by your side
X, dry your eyes
Cause itll be alright
Yeah, hes by your side
Right by your side
X, dry your eyes
Cause, itssssssssss gonna be alright
Yeah yeah, yes it isssssssssss

But well keep you close as always

Will keep the love that keeps us strong

And friends are friends forever
If the lords the lord of them
And a friend will not say never
cause the welcome will not end
Though its hard to let you go
In the fathers hands we know
That a lifetimes not too long to live as friends.
With the faith and love gods given
Springing from the hope we know
We will pray the joy youll live in
Is the strength that now you show
But well keep you close as always
It wont even seem youve gone

Will keep the love that keeps us strong

Think Im preaching if I talk too slow, they think I care.
If I walk too fast, then Ive got purpose here.
