Because He Lives<br />
God sent His son, <strong>the</strong>y called Him, Jesus<br />
He came <strong>to</strong> love, heal and forgive<br />
He lived and died <strong>to</strong> buy my pardon<br />
An empty grave is <strong>the</strong>re <strong>to</strong> prove my Savior lives.<br />
CHORUS<br />
Because He lives, I can face <strong>to</strong>morrow<br />
Because He lives, all fear is gone<br />
Because I know He holds <strong>the</strong> future<br />
And life is worth <strong>the</strong> living<br />
Just because He lives.<br />
How sweet <strong>to</strong> hold a newborn baby<br />
And feel <strong>the</strong> pride and joy he gives<br />
But greater still <strong>the</strong> calm assurance<br />
This child can face uncertain days because He Lives.<br />
And <strong>the</strong>n one day, I'll cross that river<br />
I'll fight life's final war with pain<br />
And <strong>the</strong>n, as death gives way <strong>to</strong> vict'ry<br />
I'll see <strong>the</strong> lights <strong>of</strong> glory and I'll know He reigns.<br />
CHORUS<br />
Because He lives, I can face <strong>to</strong>morrow<br />
Because He lives, all fear is gone<br />
Because I know He holds <strong>the</strong> future<br />
And life is worth <strong>the</strong> living<br />
Just because He lives<br />

I Played in <strong>the</strong> Band and Sang in <strong>the</strong> Choir<br />
I played in <strong>the</strong> band, I sang in a choir<br />
I wrote a few songs that gave a few people hope<br />
Every once in a while I started a fire<br />
When <strong>the</strong>y asked me up <strong>the</strong>re what did you do down <strong>the</strong>re<br />
I’ll say it was my heart felt desire<br />
To play in <strong>the</strong> band, <strong>to</strong> write a few songs, and sing in <strong>the</strong> choir<br />
Some think you got <strong>to</strong> be <strong>the</strong> big dog and lead all <strong>the</strong> little dogs around<br />
You’ve got <strong>to</strong> sing a solo or preach a great sermon or be <strong>the</strong> biggest hottest thing in<br />
<strong>to</strong>wn<br />
I guess I’m just a simple man with a simple desire<br />
To play in <strong>the</strong> band, write a few songs, Lord I want <strong>to</strong> sing in <strong>the</strong> choir<br />
I played in <strong>the</strong> band, I sang in a choir<br />
I wrote a few songs that gave a few people hope<br />

There’s Something About That Name<br />
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus<br />
There's just something about that name<br />
Master, Savior, Jesus<br />
Like <strong>the</strong> fragrance after <strong>the</strong> rain<br />

Kings and kingdoms will all pass away<br />
But <strong>the</strong>re's just something about that name<br />

Feeling at home in <strong>the</strong> presence <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />

You couldn't <strong>of</strong> <strong>to</strong>ld me I'd find what I found<br />
Contentment and peace from above<br />
Feeling at home in <strong>the</strong> presence <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />
Laying way back in His love<br />
Warming myself by <strong>the</strong> fires <strong>of</strong> His spirit<br />
Camping right close <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> throne<br />
Just feeling at home<br />
Feeling at home<br />
Feeling at home in <strong>the</strong> presence <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />
Needed and happy and free<br />
Just feeling at home<br />
Feeling at home<br />
Feeling accepted and loved and forgiven<br />
Apart <strong>of</strong> His warm family<br />
Just feeling at home<br />
Feeling at home<br />

I’ve Been <strong>to</strong> Calvary<br />
VERSE 1<br />
I've never traveled far around <strong>the</strong> world<br />
I've never seen <strong>the</strong> many thrills and sites unfurled<br />
But I have taken <strong>the</strong> journey <strong>of</strong> journeys for me<br />
Up Calvary's mountain <strong>the</strong>re my Savior <strong>to</strong> see.<br />
CHORUS<br />
I've been <strong>to</strong> Calvary<br />
I can say I've seen <strong>the</strong> Lord<br />
I've been <strong>to</strong> Calvary<br />
Through <strong>the</strong> witness <strong>of</strong> His word<br />
Each day at Calvary<br />
What a thrill <strong>of</strong> love divine<br />
Just <strong>to</strong> know that <strong>the</strong> Savior in mine<br />
VERSE 2<br />
I've walked tje Calvary road where Jesus trod<br />
I saw Him hanging <strong>the</strong>re, <strong>the</strong> Son <strong>of</strong> God<br />
With tear-stained eyes I knelt <strong>to</strong> pray, Jesus hear my plea<br />
Oh praise <strong>the</strong> Lord I'm glad I've been <strong>to</strong> Calvary<br />

Tell Me<br />
I’m tired <strong>of</strong> hollow sounding words I’m tired <strong>of</strong> empty promise<br />
Won’t someone sing a simple song <strong>of</strong> Jesus’ love<br />
Tell me, tell me <strong>the</strong> s<strong>to</strong>ry <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />
Tell me, tell me, tell me once again about Hs love<br />
Lady<br />
Tell me <strong>the</strong> old old s<strong>to</strong>ry it’s my only hope in glory<br />
Tell me <strong>the</strong> s<strong>to</strong>ry <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />
Tell me <strong>the</strong> old old s<strong>to</strong>ry it shall be my <strong>the</strong>me in glory<br />
Tell me once again about his love<br />
Like eagle wings it lifts me up<br />
Above <strong>the</strong> world around me<br />
Like cool refreshing summer rain<br />
It leaves me clean<br />
Lady (singing verse above)<br />
Tell me, tell me <strong>the</strong> s<strong>to</strong>ry <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />
Tell me, tell me, tell me once again about his love<br />
Tell me, tell me <strong>the</strong> s<strong>to</strong>ry <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />

JOY IN THE CAMP<br />
For years I traveled down a long and lonely road<br />
Sorrow and pain my lot <strong>to</strong> bare<br />
But <strong>the</strong>n I met <strong>the</strong> Christ that <strong>to</strong>ok my heavy load<br />
And since <strong>the</strong>n I hear singing in <strong>the</strong> air<br />
There’s joy in <strong>the</strong> camp a sinner has come home<br />
There’s joy in <strong>the</strong> camp rejoicing round <strong>the</strong> throne<br />
Singing and shouting <strong>the</strong> great redemption song<br />
There’s joy wondrous joy in <strong>the</strong> camp<br />
The angels in heaven are rejoicing round <strong>the</strong> throne<br />
Filling <strong>the</strong> lost with ____ so grand<br />
They’re singing because <strong>of</strong> one lost sheep that just came home<br />
I know <strong>the</strong>re must be joy in <strong>the</strong> camp.<br />
REPEAT CHORUS<br />
There’s joy in <strong>the</strong> camp a sinner has come home<br />
There’s joy in <strong>the</strong> camp rejoicing round <strong>the</strong> throne<br />
Singing and shouting <strong>the</strong> great redemption song<br />
Out <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> darkness in<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> light out <strong>of</strong> my blindness <strong>to</strong> jubilant sight<br />
Out <strong>of</strong> my sorrow <strong>to</strong> heaven so bright<br />
There’s joy wondrous joy in <strong>the</strong> camp<br />

I Believe In A Hill Called Mount Calvary<br />
I believe in a hill called mount Calvary<br />
I believe whatever <strong>the</strong> cost<br />
And when time has surrendered<br />
And earth is no more<br />
I'll still cling <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> old rugged cross<br />
I believe that this life with it's great mysteries<br />
Surely someday will come <strong>to</strong> an end<br />
But faith will conquer <strong>the</strong> darkness and death<br />
And will lead at last <strong>to</strong> my friend<br />
I believe that <strong>the</strong> Christ<br />
Who was slain on <strong>the</strong> cross<br />
Has <strong>the</strong> power <strong>to</strong> change lives <strong>to</strong>day<br />
For He changed me completely<br />
A new life is mine<br />
And that is why by <strong>the</strong> cross<br />
I will stay<br />
I believe in a hill called mount Calvary<br />
I believe whatever <strong>the</strong> cost<br />
And when time has surrendered<br />
And earth is no more<br />
I'll still cling <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> old rugged cross<br />

[ Lyrics
I Will Serve Thee<br />
I will serve Thee because I love Thee<br />
You have given life <strong>to</strong> me<br />
I was nothing before You found me<br />
You have given life <strong>to</strong> me<br />
Heartaches, broken pieces<br />
Ruined lives are why You died on Calvary<br />
Your <strong>to</strong>uch was what I longed for<br />
You have given life <strong>to</strong> me<br />

I'm Free<br />
So long I had searched for life's meaning<br />
Enslaved by <strong>the</strong> world and my greed<br />
Then <strong>the</strong> door <strong>of</strong> my prison was opened by love<br />
For <strong>the</strong> ransom was paid - I was free.<br />
CHORUS<br />
I'm free from <strong>the</strong> fear <strong>of</strong> <strong>to</strong>morrow<br />
I'm free from <strong>the</strong> guilt <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> past<br />
For I've traded my shackles for a glorious song<br />
I'm Free! Praise <strong>the</strong> Lord! Free at last.<br />
I'm free from <strong>the</strong> guilt that I carried<br />
From <strong>the</strong> dull empty life I'm set free<br />
For when I met Jesus, He made me complete<br />
He forgot how foolish I used <strong>to</strong> be.<br />

He Touched Me<br />
Shackled by a heavy burden<br />
'Neath a load <strong>of</strong> guilt and shame<br />
Then <strong>the</strong> hand <strong>of</strong> Jesus <strong>to</strong>uched me<br />
And now I am no longer <strong>the</strong> same.<br />
He <strong>to</strong>uched me, Oh He <strong>to</strong>uched me<br />
And oh <strong>the</strong> joy that floods my soul<br />
Something happened and now I know<br />
He <strong>to</strong>uched me and made me whole.<br />
Since I met this blessed Savior<br />
Since He cleansed and made me whole<br />
I will never cease <strong>to</strong> praise Him<br />
I'll shout it while eternity rolls.<br />
He <strong>to</strong>uched me, Oh He <strong>to</strong>uched me<br />
And oh <strong>the</strong> joy that floods my soul<br />
Something happened and now I know<br />
He <strong>to</strong>uched me and made me whole.<br />

THROUGH<br />
When I saw what laid before me, Lord I cried what will You do<br />
I thought He would just remove it but He gently led me through<br />
Without fire <strong>the</strong>re’s no refining<br />
Without pain no relief<br />
Without flood <strong>the</strong>re’s no rescue<br />
Without testing no belief<br />
Through <strong>the</strong> fire,<br />
through <strong>the</strong> flood,<br />
through <strong>the</strong> water,<br />
through <strong>the</strong> blood.<br />
Through <strong>the</strong> dry and barren places<br />
through life’s dense and maddening races<br />
Through <strong>the</strong> pain and through <strong>the</strong> glory<br />
Through will always tell <strong>the</strong> s<strong>to</strong>ry<br />
The God whose power and mercy<br />
