For Whom The Bell Tolls (It Tolls For Us) Break the foundation, and the structure will fall. No matter how tall. My Christian friends, (oh) what happened in ‘64? When the surreal court said, We couldn't pray in our schools no more. But WE will teach your sons, to believe in our new religion.......about how life begun. Oh my Christian friends, what did we do in ‘73? When the surreal court said, it is a fetus and not a baby. Did we grab our pens, and write letters to our Congressmen? They did nothing at all. Yet they swore an oath, liberty and justice for all. They should have no doubt, they will give an account. There is a dark cloud, that hangs in our blue sky. It has begun to rain, no one should question why. And I have no doubt, we will all give an account....to Him who rules over - ALL. If we say nothing at all! (They can't decide) It's not up to them, who lives or who dies. (We will become) We will become, a nation without a soul. (For whom the Bell Tolls) For whom the bell tolls (The bell tolls) Father have mercy that we may repent before you. That we may repent, before the bell tolls.............. Come To Me Come to me, and I'll give you rest. I alone, will bring you peace. Lay your burden at my feet. I am He who calms the sea. Cast your cares on me, I am He who calms the sea. Seek me first and you will find, buried treasure in a field. Even more than peace of mind, I will be your strength and shield. So, lay your burden at my feet. All of your needs - I will meet. Even more than all your needs, In my light you are complete. Of all the riches in the world, none can equal you in worth. The One who claims you as His own, Is He who reigns o'er heaven ‘n earth. Claim your victory! Rejoice in your faith! All of this is pointed to-ward, Him, who is our great reward. He is our great reward! Forevermore. Unconditional Love Someone once asked me , is there really such a thing- as true love, given unconditionally? He said, I've read the words, yet I've never seen. I told him, I have - and it's more than just a story. Love - came down - in all of its glory, I was weak - love was strong, Love took me in - when I didn't belong. Then he said - Look around, what do you see, The world is full of hate, despair, and misery. I said I know - but there is more, Sometimes what you see - depends on what you're looking for. Love - came down - in all of its glory, When you're weak - love is strong, Love can heal - all the wrong. -Instrumental- or; What greater gift could the Father send, then the One who gave His life for His friends. I look around - what do I see? Love came down -unconditionally, Call out today - love will not - turn away ! When I Met You When I first met you, I didn't know it then. All we would do together, you are so much more than a friend. Even when this life seemed unsure, we always knew what we stood for. This world can never bring true happiness, nothing compares to the joy of being blessed. When we made our vows, there was someone else there. I realize now, those words were really a prayer. And as each year-goes by, it's always been Him on whom we rely. Who else can make two hearts as one? Who else can help us finish what we have begun? [In this simply truth, we do abide. That where ever we go, whatever we do, you're at our side]. Ayden's Lullaby Where did I come from and where will I go? These are some of the things that I don't even know. Unaware of time, not early or late; I arrived here this morning eighteen minutes past eight. And I wondered where is this place? As I lay in my mother's arms, I look up to see her face. I came without money or clothes to wear, no thought of worry or worldly care. When I grow up just what will I be? None of that matters to me, as I lay - (As I lay) tucked away in my mothers arms. Nothing else matters to me. As a man, I will make my way in this world (Hurry up! Time marches on!) There's so much to learn and money to earn (Hurry before the day is gone!) Life in this world can be full of worry. (I will not be afraid) Though trouble may come it will not overtake me (He will never forsake me!) He will never forsake me. Dear Mom and Dad; Both of you, have shown me, that I can trust and rest, in the One; who gave to you, those loving arms. Always open for me, peacefully, tucked away. Forever I'll be, in His loving arms. WAR For thousands of years now, there has been a war. (And) it hasn't been fought on some distant shore. It's a battle for your heart and mind. To hide the truth away and leave you blind. For we struggle not with man, but against the powers of this dark world. [Eph 6] (Yet he has overcome this world) Light and darkness meet on this battlefield. There's nothing hidden that won't be (that won't be revealed). The word of truth is your sword and faith is your shield. When you've done all you can stand firm and do not yield. For we struggle not with man, but against the powers of this dark world. Be strong in the power of His might I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me And though the battle rages at my door He has already won the war. (He has already won the war) He has been victorious, Now, we can overcome (We can overcome this world) He has already won the war, He has made us more than conquerors, We can do all things through Christ. In the power of His might! In the power of His might. Painting on the Wall In my house, there is a painting on the wall. A river running through the woods and over a waterfall. Mountains in the background, underneath a blue sky The colors of the autumn leaves has always caught my eyes. I've wanted to live there, in peace and solitude. I'll build a cabin beside the waterfall, and spend my life - there with you. This world is a wilderness, made of concrete and steel. Built beside a highway that's full of twists and curves Her (This world system) golden leaves of autumn gently fall to the ground. Distracted by her beauty, I didn't hear her say - "You WILL serve!" Sometimes I feel, like I've waited so long. But while I waited, you built a place of peace and solitude - in my heart. I will not serve, or heed her call. I will live beside the waterfall (We will live beside the waterfall). Star Lit Night I looked up last night, to a star lit sky, into the great expanse, and the deep unknown. How little we know of this mystery, yet the obvious is so plain to see. From the vast universe to the tiny mustard seed to look at the obvious is all the proof I would need. Let those who are wise understand, all we see is the work of his hands. Chorus Heaven and earth praise Him, let all who believe proclaim His glory Him who is most high! All of this is plain to see, let all who believe proclaim his glory, the glory on high - the majesty on high! Does not wisdom call out and understanding raise her voice to the prudent man, listen to what I say Before the earth was made, or the dust of the world, he possessed me at the beginning of his ways. I-wisdom, was the craftsman at his side, I was filled with delight, day after day; rejoicing in His presence Rejoicing in His world Chorus Oh the just shall live by faith, and the wise will understand, All of this is the work of His hands, from the smallest seed to a star lit sky! Searching If you're searching for truth, he is looking for you. If you want to know more, He stands at the door Just open your heart and let Him in, He will know where to begin. Doubt disappears-in a life without fear. In a world full of doubt, you may feel unsure but there is hope for so much more! If you listen today, fear and doubt fade away (far away) Doubt disappears-in a life without fear Fear will cease-in a life filled with peace. Forgiven What a joy it is, to hear Him say, all of your sin, has been, washed away. I dreamed I stood on the brow of a cliff, leaning over a deep abyss. I cried out loud, ‘Save me from my sin.' A voice called out from in the crowd, the One who stood there years before; said, ‘Hold onto me, you will not fall in.' I couldn't go to you ---so you came to me. In my heart (there) was unbelief --- you were the key to my release. I needed power to change --- you put that power within. You renewed my mind --- and broke the bondage of sin. [Oh what a joy it is, to hear Him say; all of your sin, has been, washed away.] Though some memories may last, my former life is in the past. I wake each morning to a brand new day.The evil one may prowl and roar, it matters not what he may say; what I have been given - no one can take away. Chorus I look at how you lived --- I see how you died. With only moments left --- you saved the man at your side. How great is your love --- who can understand? If I were half the man --- that half would be enough; For me --- but I need all of you. All of me ---wants all of you. One day I'll be -- I'll be just like you. I'll be just like you. Never Give Up Don't give up on your dream, It's never too late to start. Hasn't He said, I will give to you the desires of your heart? Place your trust in His word, There is something for you to do, Your life has a higher purpose, He has a plan for you. To use the gift He has given you.........If you want to- Never give up on your dream, & never give in to despair. He has called you to a higher place, and He is more than able to take you there. Think upon the promise that He made, and the price He has paid. To give you hope and a future, to prosper you - in all that you do. Only believe, that His promise is true.............that it's true for you. Don't give up on your dream, things aren't always the way they seem. Once you believe what He's said, Don't look left or right, just straight ahead. Then trust in your belief, (and) give no place at all, to the thief. His promise is meant for today, don't let the adversary steal your dream away. "Follow your dream." Don't Go Don't go away, you belong here with me. I never thought I'd see, the day that you would leave. Can you here me calling you, return to me. I could cry a thousand tears, but not one could bring you here. I asked Him who knows all things, hear my prayer, listen to my plea-do not take this love away from me. Should I try to understand? Should I even question why? Can I rely on my faith? All I know is that, I must try. As we walk through, this life we live; we are touched by sorrow. You may have to walk up - to the mountain top, but- there is a valley below. I can see - there are green pastures below; where sorrow turns to joy and all is restored. Strangers ( in a foreign land ) The longer I live here, the more I understand. We are strangers, in a foreign land. Cast out of the garden, still part of His plan. How much longer will we live under, the rule of man? Oh.........paradise lost. Do you think they considered the cost? Tell me, what did they gain? A new world, built on the shattered remains. Living in this new world, there seems to be one rule. Each man for himself, and don't you be nobody's fool. Some seek their fortunes, others look for fame. Then there are those who are called, by your name. Oh........ stretch out your hand. Bring us back into the land. My hope is in the One, who- put away the flaming sword, who is the way to paradise restored. "This day - you will be - with me - in Paradise. My Kingdom Save ME! Save me from - who will save me from this world - its lies and deceit. My kingdom is not of this world! Unless you become like children, you will not enter in. Forgiving those who have wronged you, and you will be forgiven. For those who show mercy, mercy will be shown. All who are humble in spirit, I will make you strong. For what does it profit a man, if he should gain the whole world, and in the process loose his soul. Love not the things of this world, its lies and deceit; only the truth will make you free. Save me-save me from-who will save me from; this world its lies and deceit. Freedom-freedom from-who will give me freedom from-this world its lies and deceit Freedom-Freedom-that's what we need when the Son sets you free you are free indeed! Freedom in this life and the one to come! Love One Another We need wisdom to live in this world. And understanding that comes from knowing his word. We must walk in his light, apart from those who deceive. Living a life of faith, with all those who believe. We are his family, the message is quite clear, If we love one another, our faith is sincere. Who is my brother? Who might my sister be? All those who love one another, are part of his family, All those who love their brother, do the will of their father. Are these the last days, some say there is no doubt. While there are those who say our time has not run out. I really don't know, how much time we have until; He returns for those who're, found doing his will. Take Heed - Do not be deceived! Those who are - born of him, Love each other - in this place and time. How else can it be? If there's no love right here & now, How is there supposed to be - in eternity. When we are together - all - in eternity. Going Home I'm going home, I've got directions home. Follow the river to the throne, I'm going home. There is a river, where the waters of life - flow. For those who thirst for life, there's only one way to go. His map reveals the way, start reading at page one. Then follow the path, along the river, toward the Son. I'm going home, and I'm not alone. Many have found their way, and followed Him home. I'm going home, I've got directions home. It has been said, that home is where the heart longs to be. He's made the journey home, so there's no need for us to worry. Just follow the way He went, knowing that one day. He'll meet you along the path, and take you the rest of the way. I'm going home, I'll be glad to get home. I thank Him for my time here, But it's not, my home sweet home. You Are Not Alone There are times, when I wonder; about the darkness we live under. Oppress the living, make life dreary; oppose the righteous, make them weary. But if ever I feel like I'm the only one (in this fight) I think of how you were the loneliest one (on that night) The night when you had asked your friends, to stay with you and pray. But the darkness came over them, and they slept that time away. I can't imagine, your despair; Though I know the father heard your prayer. For the sake of those who slept that hour, and all of us who'd receive your power. There was one who slipped out of sight, The only one who didn't sleep that night. The same one who didn't heed your call, To him your life meant nothing at all. While your friends slept through your time of need, He performed his evil deed. Oh, how can it be so, that the righteous sleep, while the wicked scheme; (they plot and scheme) Stay awake and pray with me. In my light, the darkness will flee. And remember, you will never be (alone) No - you will always have me. Lyrics Copyright - BILL KINNEY - 2003-2006 All Rights Reserved Sound Recording Copyrighted 2007 back |
