I praise, and all we add a day.
Our praise, and all we are today.
Take, take, take it off
Take, take, take it all
I don't know why you care, don't know what..something..
I don't know why you care, don't know what's out there.
Take off your clothes
Follow Jesus.
Take up your cross
Follow Jesus.
Take off your cross
Follow Jesus
Take up your cross
Follow Jesus.
I'm Captain Kangaroo.
Back off, I've claimed the rule.
Rumble and a rash at the top of the list.
Verbal interaction's atop the list.
"Taste and See" by James Moore, Jr.
I will bless the Lord at all times.
His praise shall always be on my list.
I will bless the Lord at all times.
His praise shall always be on my lips.
'Cause the waitress is dead
Call the waitress instead
Tenderness, with my handsomeness...
Hush, baby, don't cry.
There's rings in my head all the time.
And still, I tend to forget your words,
when I'm a swan in mindful dive
Tenderness, when my head's a mess...
Hush, baby, don't cry,
this rings in my head all the time.
And still, I tend to forget your words
when I'm the swan in my full dive
The devil's alliance will tear you apart.
The devil's a lion who'll tear you apart.
I ran across an old box of lepers.
I ran across an old box of letters.
That's why god made the mood.
That's why God made the moon.
We've all gotten A's
We've all got new names
And I know everyone one I show
I know there is none.
And I know everywhere I go
I know there is love.
"There Were Twelve Disciples" by George A. Minor
He is called a stew
He is called a stew
We are his disciples
I am one and you
He has called us too
He has called us too
We are his disciples
I am one and you
Editor's note: The person who submitted this put "Youth Leader" as the performer name. Sorry to say this, but that is not an actual recording artist or band. That name is not even found on Allmusic.com; in fact, I researched that site for this song (whose correct title, btw, is "There Were 12 Disciples") and it was written by George A. Minor, who also performed the first recorded version of it.
"They Say" by Deniece Williams & Phillip Bailey
He came to set the Cactus free
He came to set the captives free
The misheard lyrics are actually a miss-print in the actual lyric sheet
Tears me apart inside, now what do we do?
Tears me apart inside, I know I do it too.
It was a dance, we could always have
But none of us involved today
Faced with the choice to deny gardening
But there was one choice to make
It was a test we could all hope to pass
But none of us would want to take
Faced with the choice to deny God and live
For her there was one choice to make
December '99
I'm gonna let you shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
We were made to fly
We were made to thrive
We were made to fry
or
We were made to fly
We were made to thrive
I never lactate.
I never lacked it.
Take a stand for the land, it's time ta jam
or
Take a stand for the man, it's time ta jam
Take a stand for the Lamb, it's time ta jam
When the Lord stop's in
It's too late for a ball of cheese.
When the Lord stop's in
It's too late for apologies.
This song was about Jesus coming back unexpectidly, and how we should all be ready so we don't get caught off guard & before it's too late.
When I say, 'Where are my briefs?'
When I say, 'Where are my freaks?'
When I say, 'Where are the Greeks?'
When I say, 'Where are my freaks?'
"Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day" by John Gardner
This paradigm for my true love.
This have I done for my true love.
If you wanna dance with me
Come along
Here's your chance to be totally sexy.
If you wanna dance with me
Come along
Here's your chance to be totally set free.
Here I am a cantaloupe.
Here I am again alone.
Over Ann Dover
Over and over
Actually, if you say over and over fast, it does turn out sounding like 'over Ann Dover.'
"Truth Be Known Everybody Gets A Shot" by
Newsboys
If the truth be known, there'll be more of us to fall.
If the truth be known, there'll be more to answer for.
And Glory stares
And Glory share
