Back To The Cross

Verse 1
If I fly on the wings of the morning
Or I dwell in the depths of the sea
Even when I walk into trouble
He's always there to guide me
The only path that matters is the one I am on
Even though it may seem dim and dross
I've taken a thousand different paths
But I keep coming back to the cross
Chorus
Back to the cross where my new life began
I've been so far as ever I could see with no end
Then there were the same familiar sights
Where all sin is lost
Because no matter which way I go from here
All paths lead to the cross
Verse 2
He went around doing good
Many people He helped on His way
While some found miracles in their life
Others had bad things to say
His life led Him freely to the cross
Where He---He conquered sin
Jesus died on Calvary
And that's where my new life began
Makes Everything Alright
Mark D. Jones © 2008 Mark Jones Music/BMI
Verse 1
When I get the blues I talk to Jesus
'Cause I know the He will (He will) He will hear my plea
When I get so down I say the name Jesus
'Cause the Holy Spirit will be sent to comfort me
Chorus
Now when I begin to open my mouth
The name of Jesus just comes out
I just start to praise Him
And all at once I want to shout (pum pum pum pum pum)
I know God's Word will do the body good
And restore a smile so bright
And it's the precious blood of Jesus
That makes everything alright
Verse 2
One day very soon I'll talk to Jesus
I'll admire the beauty of Heaven's wondrous sight
I will hear Him say welcome home my child
And I know that's what—what makes everything alright

Verse 1
You're ushering in another day
Untouched and freshly new
So here I came to ask you, God,
If you'll renew me too
But Father, I am well aware I can't make it on my own
So take my hand & hold it tight for I can't walk alone
Chorus
I can't walk alone, I must have you near me
I can't find my way, it's so dark and dreary
Please light my way, Lord,
Show me the way home
And stay right beside me, I can't walk alone
Verse 2
Forgive the many errors God
That I made yesterday
Let me try again Dear Lord
To walk closer in Thy way
Dry the tears from my eyes
And lead me to the throne
Take my hand and hold it tight
For I can't walk alone
Too Blessed To Be Depressed
Johnny Duren © 2004 Letsing His Songs Publishing/BMI
Verse 1
My car broke down on the way to town
I have bills that are overdue
I got dog bit, and my lawn mower quit
There's a hole in my left shoe
When things go wrong all day long
I'll tell you what I do
I grab my frown and turn it upside down
And let God's love shine through
Chorus
'Cause I'm too blessed to be depressed
The Lord has been so good to me
He's given me His best
And I won't let old Satan take away my happiness
'Cause I'm much too blessed to ever be depressed
Verse 2
When life is rough and somewhat tough
And you feel so all alone
And everyday is a rainy day
And you think you can't go on
The sun starts shining and you're still whining
You should be ashamed
This is the day the Lord has made
Let's praise His holy name
The Storm
Tonya Harrelson and Johnny Duren © 2008 Letsing His Songs Publishing/BMI
Verse 1
I woke to the sound of the wind
Blowing on the window pane
Listened to the rain falling down,
The thunder was so loud
My troubled mind filled with thoughts
Of the day to come
Then again the question came,
How can I go through the pain
Chorus
Then I heard Jesus say to me
I created the storm you see
And I made the rain to fall so trust Me through it all
My voice can be as loud as thunder
But if you ever wonder in the midst of your storm
It's still the quiet voice you hear so small
Verse 2
A storm can only sink a ship if the Master's not on board
God can work in gentle drizzles or in a mighty storm
My healing comes with tears
That fall like the pouring rain
Through His Word the answer came
That's how I can go on through the pain
Things
Mark D. Jones and Johnny Duren © 2008 Mark Jones Music/BMI
Chorus
Things go up and things come down
Sometimes they move all around
But there's just one thing that I know
I'm Heaven Bound
Verse 1
Standing in the middle of the forest
You cannot see the way that takes you home
Everything you need is just beyond you
Yet close enough to make it to the throne
Verse 2
Standing in the middle of a hillside
Teaching many parables that day
Jesus showed His love to everyone around Him
Making sure that none were turned away
Verse 3
Standing in the middle of life's valley
Looking up the mountains seem so tall
It never is too late to seek the Father
He knows the mountains, He knows the valleys,
He made us all
I Just Want To Be A Blessing
Mark D. Jones © 2008 Mark Jones Music/BMI
Verse 1
You may have cried unto the Lord
"I have a problem now
There is a wall that needs to fall,
I want it to come down"
But no matter what you may do
Or whatever you may say
Can make your wall tumble down except
To look at him and say
Chorus
I just want to be a blessing for you Lord
I want to thank you for the gentle strength
I find in The Word
I want to tell someone of the love
That held Christ on that tree
I want them to see the blessing of You in me
I want someone to see that love, in me
Verse 2
Sometimes we think our walls are really much too wide
We look to see how tall they are
Then hold them deep inside
With Christ's blood the price was paid
Now there is no wall you see that can stop
God's blessing from pouring on you and me
Feelin' A Heelin'
Johnny Duren © 2008 Letsing His Songs Publishing/BMI
Verse 1
God said ask and ye shall receive
I've spent a lot of time down on my knees
My body was in so much pain and misery
But now I'm feelin' a healin' comin' over me
Chorus
I'm feelin' a healin' comin' over me
Makes me want to sing and shout the victory
I'm about as happy as anyone can be
'Cause I'm feelin' a healin' comin' over me
Verse 2
I've been down and sick so long
Old Satan tried to take away my song
But I kept on believing and praying every day
Now my pain has all gone away
Turn Around
Joe C. Champion, Jr. © 1981/BMI
Verse1
There's a song that we all love oh it's music from above
And that song is the old “Amazing Grace”
It's music to my ear every time that I hear
Those words that say a wretch like me was saved
Chorus
The day I turned around and met the Master
I was delivered from my wrong and sinful ways
He saved my soul with loving grace
He put a smile on my face
And I'll praise Him all the rest of my days
Verse2
If when you hear that old song
Oh how you'd like to sing along
But somehow you just can't seem to let go
The reason more than likely is
That you can't call yourself His
And deep within your heart you know
Chorus 2
That you need to turn around and meet the Master
Turn away from your wrong and sinful ways
He'll save your soul with loving grace
He'll put a smile on your face
And you can praise Him all the rest of your days
Tag:
Now He's knocking at the door like so many times before
I love that old song “Amazing Grace”
In The Name Of The Lord
Mark D. Jones © 1999 Mark Jones Music/BMI
Verse 1
Well I once was a blind man in deep distress
And was a sinner too
But God reached down a hand for me
And He will do the same for you
Chorus
In the name of the Lord
In the name of the Lord
I will walk, and talk, and shout, and sing and pray
In the name of the Lord
Verse 2
Well I now have Jesus in my heart
And He goes with me each day
I talk to the Father in Jesus' name
And He hears me when I pray
It's No Show
Johnny Duren © 1998 Letsing His Songs Publishing/BMI
Verse 1
We've been going through the show
Trying to put our songs together
In such a way that you will know
The message that we bring will live forever
How Jesus died upon the cross
To save every soul that's lost We're of His chosen few
You'll know He bled and died for you
When the show is through but it's no show
Chorus
It's no show . . .we do it all for Jesus
It's no show . . . nothing more would please us
Than to see folks get down on their knees
At this altar begging please Lord I need forgiveness
We just want you to feel The Lord we sing about is real
Its . . .no . . .show
Verse 2
As we come and speak to you
In Psalms, hymns, and songs of the spirit
We sing and make music inOur hearts to the Lord, can't you feel it
In the name of Christ we come bringing hope to everyone
It's what He says we must do
You'll know He bled and died for you
When the show is through but it's no show
Not Far Away
Mark D. Jones © 2008 Mark Jones Music/BMI
Verse 1
Everyday decisions are clouded with our strife
We try to fix the problems in everyone else's life
But there is one decision you will finally have to face
Whether you accept Jesus Christ as Savior
By His saving grace
Chorus
Not far away the time is coming soon
One will never know whether night or noon
He will be back so you'd better pray
The time is almost now not far away
Verse 2
Two standing on the creek bank
One at the water's edge
Now he's here then he's not did he fall over the ledge
Two might be at the workplace waiting for their pay
Unaware the time had come for Jesus to return that day
Verse 3
Don't you worry brother what the Bible says is true
Two will be in the fields and one of them may be you
God's Word is self-fulfilling all around for you to see
So where one is taken and the other left
Which one will you be
A Grace That Knows No Bounds
Tonya Harrelson and Mark D. Jones © 2008
Mark Jones Music/BMI
Verse 1
So many times I cried help me Lord I've tried
To do what is right and true draw me close to You
What a mess I've made in this life You gave
Is there grace to cover my mistakes
Chorus
That's why He decided to die
He would not come down He wore my crown
He covered me with grace when He took my place
A grace that knows no bounds
Verse 2
Since then I have learned to give Him my concerns
To turn to Him and seek to lay them at His feet
To cover all my labors with His unmerited favors
Then He will forgive me
The Greatest Gift
Mark D. Jones © 2001 Mark Jones Music/BMI
Verse1
It’s Christmas time again outside it’s getting cold
But deep within our hearts we’re all wishing it would snow
We run around to find the gifts we will buy
But the greatest gift of all is right before our eyes
Chorus
The greatest gift was once lying in a manger
The stars up above they all knew
Wise men came and brought Him their treasures
But no gift was greater, ‘tis true
Than the gift that He gave me and you
Verse2
This one would be different oh how it seemed strange
Even the donkey knew this load was not the same
He would carry it with care as gentle as could be
For this gift that He would carry would last all eternity
