A Great Day Lyrics

 


 

Great, Great Day
 

There's gonna be a great great day
All of my troubles will pass away
I read the Book, and the Book did say
There's gonna be a great great day


On my back, no more burdens
On my shoulders, no more cares
In my heart, no more sadness
And the bell of peace will ring out everywhere


I'm gonna rest beside the water
Fill my cup till it overflows
Oh how sweet just to see the sunshine
How I suffered in this world nobody knows

 

 

Sweeter Gets The Journey
 

Sweeter gets the journey every day
Serving Jesus really pays
I get happy in this Heavenly way
Cause sweeter gets the journey every day


I don't know about you my friend
I don't know where your journey will end
But as form me and all of mine
We're gonna make that Heavenly climb


Up to  that Heavenly Shore
We'll live forevermore
Never have a trouble
Never have a care
Everything will just be happiness there


Trouble and sorrow used to be my lot
I'd sit and worry bout the things I've not
Now I count all the blessings I've got
And I don't worry bout the things I've not


Some folks seek and never find
Happiness and peace of mind
But I have peace within my heart
Since with the Savior I've made the start

 

 

Room Of Prayer
 

I just go to my room
I call it my room of prayer


There's a room that I can go to
And I feel the Master's loving hand
As I kneel down and pray I feel Him so close to me
No matter when I call upon Him
I can always find Him waiting there
There's a room where I go
I call it my room of prayer


My room of prayer my room of prayer
The Lord and I can be together right there
And when I'm down I never worry
For if I have more than I can bear
I'll just go to the room
I call it my room of prayer

 

 

Going Home



I'm home sick, I'm so tired and this body, it's getting so weak
Hands are callused and my heart, it sometimes skips a beat
My plans, plans for the future, they sometimes grow so dim
But I'll keep my faith in Jesus
I'm depending all on Him


Going Home, going home
Where my Master waits for me
Going home, going home
There I'll rest beside the sea
Jesus has for me a mansion
Just o'er the dashing foam
Then my journey's ended
I know that I'll be going home

 

 

I Just Came To Talk To You Lord

   

I just came to talk with You Lord


I didn't come here to ask You for anything
I just came to talk with you Lord
You've answered a million prayers or more
That I forgot to thank You for
I just came to talk with You Lord


Maybe tomorrow there'll be trouble and sorrow
And a thousand teardrops may fall
But until I face tomorrow's task
I have no special favor to ask
I just came to talk with you Lord


So many times Lord
Have troubles brought me to my knees
But this time I just came to talk with you Lord
With not a selfish motive in mind
Lord, I just want to thank you for all the other times
I just came to talk with you Lord

 

 

When I Lift Up My Head

 

Well when I'm down (when I'm down)
When I'm down and out (when I'm down and out)
When my heart (when my heart)
Is filled with fear and doubt
That's when I lift up my head and He lifts up my heart
And my troubles just all roll away


Roll'em away, Lord
Troubles rolled away, Lord
Roll'em away, Lord
Troubles rolled away, Lord
That's when I lift up my head and He lifts up my heart
And my troubles just all roll away


Well I can't see the sun with my head to the ground
Tears dim my vision and weigh my heart down
But I found the secret when I knelt to pray
When I lift up my head and He lifts up my heart
And my troubles just all roll away

 

 

How Much Further Can We Go

 

We've thrown away the principals our land was founded on
How much further can we go
We've put aside morality for society
How much further can we go
 

The common forms of decency have fell beneath our feet
The Golden Rule that God gave us has only met defeat
We even recognize a man who say that God is dead
How much further can we go


Our people speak of peace when there is war on every hand
How much further can we go
No longer are our children taught of love for every man
How much further can we go

 

 

Searching

 

On every hand we some soul who's searching
But many times they do not realize
Oh the thing for which their lonely heart is searching
Awaits for them before their very eyes


Searching, are you searching
Seeking for what satisfies
Longing , are you longing
Christ is the One for whom your spirit cries

 

 

Each Step I Take

 

My feet are getting so weary
And my steps are getting slow
As I travel down this lonely road of life
But each step that I take
Just draws me closer, closer to my home
Where I'll rest from all my heartaches, all my troubles, all my strife


Each step I take just draws me closer home, closer to my home
Where I'll rest my weary feet and travel no more
I see my loved ones waiting on that shore
They're waiting on that shore
Each step I take just draws me closer to my home

 

 

Love Is The Key

 

It'll make you trust your neighbor
Respect your fellow man
Make you hold your head up high
It'll make you do unto others
Your very best you can
And look yourself right in the eye


Well now love is the key that unlocks every door
And love, it makes the world go 'round
So search your heart and find that key you're looking for
And on to happiness you found

 

 

Almost Home (But Lost)

 

People passing on their way to the end of this short life
Never looking up to Jesus to relieve their sinful strife
Never caring that their life may be almost gone
Never knowing that their so close, almost home but lost
 

Almost home, almost home
Walking down life's road all alone, all alone
Almost home, almost home
Almost home, but lost


Oh my friend how sad 'twill be when you stand before the Lord
And you've never learned to trust Him and believe His holy Word
Can't you see that you can't wait to accept Him now
When you're standing at the judgment, you'll be home but lost

 

 

I Saw The Face Of Jesus

 

Well I saw the face of Jesus
So real was the smile that He wore
I dreamed I had crossed chilly Jordan
And stood on that Heavenly shore
 

I know that man cannot imagine
What the Lord has prepared in Glory Land
But I got a glimpses and a vision
Of that City not made with hands
