1.Across The Bridge
I have lived a life of sin in this world I'm living in
I have done forbidden things I shouldn't do
I asked a beggar along the way if he could tell me where to stay
Where I could find real happiness and love that's true.
Across the bridge there's no more sorow
Across the bridge there's no more pain
The sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again.
--- Instrumental ---
Follow the footsteps of the King till you hear the voices ring
They'll be singing out the glory of the land
The river Jordan will be near, the sound of trumpet you will hear
And you'll behold the most precious place ever known to man.
Across the bridge there's no more sorow
Across the bridge there's no more pain
The sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again.
Across the bridge there's no more sorow
Across the bridge there's no more pain
The sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again...

2.This World is not my home
This world is not my home I'm just a passing through
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh Lord you know I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home then Lord what will I do
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
I have a loving mother just over in Gloryland
And I don't expect to stop until I shake her hand
She's waiting now for me in heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh Lord you know...
[ guitar ]
Just over in Gloryland we'll live eternaly the saints on every hand are shouting victory
Their songs of sweetest praise drift back from heaven's shore
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh Lord you know...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.I'll Fly Away
Some glad morning when this life is o'er I'll fly away
To a home on God's celestial shore I'll fly away
I'll fly away oh Glory I'll fly away when I die hallelujah by and by I'll fly away
When the shadows of this life have flown I'll fly away
Like a bird from prison bars has flown I'll fly away
I'll fly away oh Glory I'll fly away when I die hallelujah by and by I'll fly away
[ guitar ]
Just a few more weary days and then I'll fly away
To a land where joy shall never end I'll fly away
I'll fly away oh Glory yes I'll fly away when I die hallelujah by and by I'll fly away
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.God be with you (till we meet again)
God be with you till we meet again by his cancels guide and pull you
With his sheeps securely fold you God be with you till we meet again
Till we meet till we meet till we meet at Jesus feet
Till we meet till we meet God be with you till we meet again
God be with you till we meet again need his wings protect and hide you
Daily man I still provide you God be with you till we meet again
Till we meet till we meet...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.Take My Hand Precious Lord
When my way groweth drier precious Lord linger near when my life is almost gone
Hear my cry hear my call hold my hand last I fall
Take my hand precious Lord lead me home
Precious Lord take my hand lead me on let me stand I am tired I am weak I am worn
Through the storm through the night lead me on to the light
Take my hand precious Lord lead me home
[ organ ]
When my work is all done and my race here is run
Let me see by the light Thou has shone
That there city's so bright with the Lamb as the light
Take my hand precious Lord lead me home
Precious Lord take my hand...

6.It is No Secret (What God Can Do)
The chimes of time ring out the news, another day is through.
Someone slipped and fell, was that someone you?
You may have longed for added strength your courage to renew.
Do not be disheartened, I have news for you.
It is no secret what God can do, what he's done for others he'll do for you.
With arms wide open, he'll pardon you, it is no secret what God can do.
There is no night for in his light you'll never walk alone.
Always feel at home, wherever you may roam.
There is no power can conquer you while God is on your side.
Just take him at his promise, don't run away and hide.
It is no secret what God can do, what he's done for others he'll do for you.
With arms wide open he'll pardon you, it is no secret what God can do

7.Have Thine Own Way Lord
Have Thine own way Lord, have Thine own way
Thou art the potter I am the clay
Mould me and make me after Thy will
While I an waiting yielded and still
Have Thine own way Lord have Thine own way
Search me and try me Master today
Whiter than snow Lord wash me just now
As in thy presence humbly I bow
( piano )

Hold oe’r my being absolute sway
Filled with Thy spirit till all can see

8.In the Garden (I Come to the Garden Alone)
I come to the garden alone
while the dew is still on the roses,
and the voice I hear falling on my ear,
the Son of God discloses.
Refrain:
And he walks with me, and he talks with me,
and he tells me I am his own;
and the joy we share as we tary there,
none other has ever known.
He speaks, and the sound of his voice
is so sweet the birds hush their singing,
and the melody that he gave to me
within my heart is ringing.
(Refrain)
I'd stay in the garden with him
though the night around me be falling,
but he bids me go; thru the voice of woe
his voice to me is calling.
(Refrain)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9.The Flowers The Sunset The Trees
Each time I touch a rose petal and breathe the sweet fragrance it brings
I know there's a God up in heaven no human could create these things
The dogwood the oak and the willow so gracefully wave in the breeze
The dogwood I'll always remember my Lord died upon one of these
The sunset in its golden splendor such colors no artist can do
I know when I look on its beauty each page in the Bible is true
No picture or painting can capture the beauty of any of these
The handwork of God is revealed in the flowers the sunset the trees
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10.We thank Thee
We thank Thee each morning for a new born day
Where we may work the fields of new mown hay
We thank Thee for the sunshine and the air that we breathe oh Lord
we thank Thee
Thank Thee for the rivers that run all day
Thank Thee for the little birds that sing along the way
Thank Thee for the trees and the deep blue sea oh Lord we thank Thee
Oh yes we thank Thee Lord for every flower that blooms
Birds that sing fish that swim and the light of the moon
We thank Thee every day as we kneel and pray
That we were born with eyes to see these things
Thank Thee for the fields where the clover is grown
Thank Thee for the pastures where cattle may roam
Thank Thee for Thy love so pure and free oh Lord we thank Thee
Oh yes we thank Thee Lord...

11.A Beautiful Life
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12.He Will
He will open up the doorway you never knew was there
He will show you many things you knew not hour
He will let you know he listens to your every prayer
He will save you by the mercy of His love.
He will guide you through life battles, He will give you power
He will answer when you call Him night or day
He will shine His light upon you in the darkest hour
He will love you and go with you all the way.
He will take you by the hand and lead you as you would a child
Down the straight and narrow aisle to satan's mill
He will take you when the time is right and in just a little while
He will love you and go with you all the way.
He will give you life eternal
He will
He will...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13.Suppertime
(Sang)
Many years ago in days of childhood
I used to play till evenin' shadows come
Then windin' down that old familiar pathway
I'd hear my mother call at set of sun.
Come home, come home it's suppertime
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home it's suppertime
We're going home at last.
(Spoken)
Some of the fondest memories of my childhood
Were woven around suppertime
When my mother used to call
From the backsteps of the old homeplace
Come on home now son it's suppertime.
Ahhhh, but I'd loved to hear that once more
But you know for me time has woven the realization of
The truth that's even more thrilling and that's when
The call come up from the portals of glory
To come home for it's suppertime.
When all Gods children shall gather around the table
of the Lord, Himself and the greatest suppertime of them all.
(Sang)
Come home, come home it's suppertime
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home it's suppertime
We're going home at last...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.WHERE WE'LL NEVER GROW OLD
I have heard of a land
On the faraway strand
This a beautiful home of the soul
Built by Jesus on high
There we never shall die
This the land where we'll never grow old.
Never grow old, never grow old
In the land where we'll never grow old
Never grow old, never grow old
In the land where we'll never grow old.
--- Instrumental ---
When our work here is done
And the life's crown is won
And our troubles and trials are o'er
All our sorrow will end
And our voices will blend
With the loved ones who've gone on before.
Never grow old, never grow old
In the land where we'll never grow old
Never grow old, never grow old
In the land where we'll never grow old...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15.How Long Has It Been
How long has it been since you talked with the Lord
And told him your heart's hidden secrets
How long since you prayed how long since you stayed
On your knees till the light shone through
How long has it been since your mind felt at ease
How long since your heart knew no burden
Can you call him your friend how long has it been since you knew that he cared for you
How long has it been since you knelt by your bed and prayed to the Lord up in heaven
How long since you knew that he’d answer you
And would keep you the long night through
How long has it been since you woke with the dawn and felt that the day’s worth the living
Can you call him your friend how long has it been since you knew that he cared for you
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16.I'd Rather Have Jesus
I’d rather have Jesus than silver or gold;
I’d rather be His than have riches untold;
I’d rather have Jesus than houses or lands;
I’d rather be led by His nail-pierced hand
Refrain:
Than to be the king of a vast domain,
Or be held in sin’s dread sway;
I’d rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today.
I’d rather have Jesus than men’s applause;
I’d rather be faithful to His dear cause;
I’d rather have Jesus than worldwide fame;
I’d rather be true to His holy name
He’s fairer than lilies of rarest bloom;
He’s sweeter than honey from out the comb;
He’s all that my hungering spirit needs;
I’d rather have Jesus and let Him lead

20.Where do I go from here
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
21.Whispering Hope
Soft as the voice of an angel,
Breathing a lesson unheard,
Hope with a gentle persuasion
Whispers her comforting word:
Wait till the darkness is over,
Wait till the tempest is done,
Hope for the sunshine tomorrow,
After the shower is gone.
Refrain:
Whispering hope, oh, how welcome thy voice,
Making my heart in its sorrow rejoice.
If, in the dusk of the twilight,
Dim be the region afar,
Will not the deepening darkness
Brighten the glimmering star?
Then when the night is upon us,
Why should the heart sink away?
When the dark midnight is over,
Watch for the breaking of day.
Hope, as an anchor so steadfast,
Rends the dark veil for the soul,
Whither the Master has entered,
Robbing the grave of its goal;
Come then, oh, come, glad fruition,
Come to my sad weary heart;
Come, O Thou blest hope of glory,
Never, oh, never depart.

22.But you Love Me Daddy
Your five year old face is a dirty disgrace
(but you love me Daddy)
You scatter your toys and you make too much noise
(but you love me Daddy)
You know little lad you can be pretty bad
(but you love me Daddy)
You wake me at dawn when i want to sleep on
(but you love me Daddy)
Now you eat the cookies when i tell you no
(But you love me daddy cause you tell me so)
you're so hard to scold cause you're my five year old
(and cause you love me Daddy)
When i dress you up you go play with the pup
(but you love me Daddy)
When i use the phone you wont leave me alone
(but you love me Daddy)
You make sister wail pulling her ponytail
(But you love me Daddy)
You scratch up the floor and you write on the door
(But you love me Daddy)
You ask foolish questions now you know thats true
(But you love me Daddy and you know you do)
Your so hard to scold cause you're my five year
