Praising Jesus

Words and music: Danice Sweet
Lead: Pete Vega

Lyrics:

Chorus:
Praising Jesus as we walk along
Praising Jesus as we sing this song
Praising Jesus as we lift a load
On this heavy traveled road

Repeat Chorus

It doesn’t matter day or night
I can call His name (I can call His name)
All I know is He loves me so
And that is why He came

Repeat Chorus

When I’m down and I need a friend
No one can be found (no one can be found)
I know one who is always there
He’s never let me down

Repeat Chorus

If you do not know this man
I’m the one to call (I’m the one to call)
We can learn about His love
It’s written down for all (it's written down for all)

Repeat Chorus (x2)

On this heavy traveled road (we'll help you lift your load)
On this heavy traveled road

Scriptural Reference:

"Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise."  James 5:13

Home Where I Belong

Words and music: Pat Terry © 1976 Word Music (ASCAP)
This song also appeared on The Vocal Union by The Vocal Union.
Lead: Danice Sweet

Lyrics:

They say that heaven’s pretty
And living here is too
But if they said that I would have to choose between the two
I’d go home (I’d go home)
Going home, where I belong (I belong)

And sometimes when I’m dreaming
It comes as no surprise
That if you look you’ll see that homesick feeling in my eyes
I’m going home (I’m going home)
Going home, where I belong (I belong)

While I’m here I’ll serve Him gladly
And sing Him all these songs
I’m here (I’m here)
But not for long (not for long)

And when I’m feeling lonely and I feel so blue
You know it’s such a joy to know that I am only passing through
I’m going home (I’m going home)
Going home, where I belong (I belong)

And one day I’ll be sleeping
When death knocks on my door
And I’ll awake to find that I’m not homesick anymore
I’ll be home (I’ll be home)
I’ll be home, where I belong (I belong)

Scriptural Reference:

"Instead, they were longing for a better country--a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them."  Hebrews 11:16

In the Upper Room

Words and music: Chet Sweet, Billy Thompson, Steve Maxwell, and Danice Sweet
Lead: Danice Sweet

Lyrics:

In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)

In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
We were meeting one more time (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
We passed the bread and wine
In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
We knew the time had come (upper upper, upper upper, upper room) (we knew the time had come)
In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
To sacrifice the Son

Chorus 1:
Remember when (He made the blind man see) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
Remember when (we walked by Galilee) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
Remember when (we heard the Savior’s plea) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
In the garden of Gethsemane

In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
Among you there is one (upper upper, upper upper, upper room) (among you there is one)
And in the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
Let the deed by done
In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
He said I will suffer pain (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
And in the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
Don’t let me die in vain

Chorus 2:
Remember when (Peter started to doubt) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
Remember when (He drove the demons out) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
Remember when (we thought we saw Him cry) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
On the day that Lazarus had died

In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
My faith was confirmed (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
And in the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
I know that He’ll return
In the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
Have you met the Savior there (upper upper, upper upper, upper room) (have you seen Him anywhere?)
And in the upper room (upper upper, upper upper, upper room)
I returned to Him in prayer

Chorus 3:
Remember the time (we saw Him heal the lame) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
Remember the time (multitudes called His name) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
Remember the time (we saw His mother cry) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
On the day that He was crucified

Chorus 4:
Remember when (children to Him came) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
Remember when (Pharisees cursed His name) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
Remember when (He fed the five thousand men) (remember, remember, remember, remember when)
And He said He’s coming back again

Scriptural Reference:

"He will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready.  Make preparations for us there."  Mark 14:15

And I'm praying that He'll lead you (He'll lead you) right where you need to be (lead you where you are)
And I'm praying He'll guide you through the storm (through the storm)
And while I'm on my knees I'll be lifting you in prayer
I hope wherever you are you're praying for me

Lord knows I would if could somehow (I could somehow)
So I sing this song for you and where ever you go (you will know)
You will always know I'm praying for you

And if my time should come before I've time to show (how could I show)

Words: Deb Parks and Danice Sweet
Music: Danice Sweet

Lyrics:

Had you been the only one (only one), He would've gone to Calvary (Calvary)
Angels are praying (angels pray) when you're on bended knee (bended knee)
When just one soul truly gives their heart to Him
Angels are singing, shouting, and bringing praises to the Lamb

Chorus 1:
Angels sing holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
And we sing holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come

If He hadn't known the pain (known the pain), if Christ hadn't felt that agony (agony)
Then we'd all been lost (all been lost) condemned eternally (eternally)
When a child is born into the Father's family
I know heaven rejoices, a chorus of voices, singing glory to the King

Repeat Chorus 1

Angels rejoice when a lost child's voice is heard singing the praise of the lamb, of the lamb

Chorus 2:
And we sing holy (holy), holy (holy), holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come (and is to come)
And we sing holy (holy), holy (holy), holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come (and is to come)

Chorus 3:
And we sing holy (holy), holy (holy), holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come (and is to come)
And we sing holy (we sing holy) (holy), (we sing holy) holy (holy), holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come

And is to come, and is to come, and is to come, and is to come

Spoken Vocal: "Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.  Forever and ever, Amen."

He Saved Us

Words and music: Danice Sweet
Lead: Danice Sweet

Lyrics:

Chorus:
He saved us
Not because of righteous things we’ve done
He saved us
Through the washing of His precious blood
He saved us through the sacrifice of His only Son
Through His mercy we’re saved by love

Repeat Chorus

It is with a grateful heart that I come to you today
It is with humble adoration
That I take this time to say
I know that I’m not all I could be
And I don’t always see
That He’s beside me and to guide me and to comfort me
(He’s guiding me)

Repeat Chorus

If you’ve got a troubled mind
And you can find no rest
If you’ve been worried ‘bout the future
And you wonder if you’re blessed
I know that He’s got all that I need
And He can always see
When I am falling I can call and He will rescue me
(He’ll rescue me)

Repeat Chorus (x2)

We’re saved by love, we’re saved by love

Scriptural Reference:

"He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy.  He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit."  Titus 3:5

Inspiration: Dr. Gloria Clover
This song also appeared on Best of Revival by Revival.
Lead: Chet Sweet

Lyrics:

Chorus:
His tender mercies rest upon me
Though I'll never be worthy of it all (worthy of it all)
He has shown His grace and someday I'll see His face
And His tender mercies will upon me fall

Each day I'll strive a little harder (strivin' harder)
Wanting to be more like Him
Wanting to do more than barely make it
Certain that when my life ends

Repeat Chorus

Having tried and having fallen (I keep on fallin')
He picks me up without complaint
Knowing I won't reach perfection
’Til I see those pearly gates

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
I know, I know I don't deserve what I've been given
So I need to share with you (share with you)

Repeat Chorus

They will fall (fall, fall, fall), they will fall (fall, fall, fall)
They will fall (fall, fall, fall), they will fall (fall, fall, fall)
They will fall (fall, fall, fall), they will fall (fall, fall, fall)
They will fall, they will fall

At the Name of Jesus

Words and music: Danice Sweet, Anthony Tate, Pete Vega, and Donja Cary
Lead: Anthony Tate

Lyrics:

Chorus:
At the name (at the name) of Jesus
At the name (at the name) of Jesus
Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is Lord
At the name (at the name) of Jesus
At the name (at the name) of Jesus
You can say it now or you will say it when
He reigns forevermore

From the highest position in heaven
To the humblest place here on earth (here on earth)
Laying aside His glory
Became a man of human birth (a man of human birth)
The very nature of a servant
Obeying to death on a cross (made in His likeness)
Made in human likeness
So the world would not be lost (not be lost)

Repeat Chorus

Our citizenship is in heaven
We’re awaiting a Savior from there (waiting there)
So that we will be made like Him
And receive a crown to wear (receive a crown to wear)
Forgetting what is behind me
Straining toward what’s up ahead (pressing on)
I press on to win the prize
And when my name is read

Bridge:
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Prince of Peace
Reigning in glory and robed in majesty (majesty)

Repeat Chorus

(We'll praise Him) He reigns forevermore
(We know He) He reigns forevermore
He reigns forevermore

Scriptural Reference:

"That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."  Phillippians 2:10-11

Sweet hour of prayer
Sweet hour of prayer
That calls me from a world of care
And bids me at my Father’s throne
Make all my wants and wishes known
In seasons of distress and grief
My soul has often found relief
And oft escaped the tempter’s snare
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer

Duice oración
Duice oración
Al tono excelso de bondad
Tu llevaras mi peticion
A Dios que escucha con piedad
Por fe espero recibir
La gran divina bendición
Y siempre a mi Señor servir
Por Tú virtud duice oración

Sweet hour of prayer (hour of prayer)
Sweet hour of prayer
Thy wings shall my petition bear
To Him whose truth (faithfulness) and faithfulness
Engage the waiting soul  to bless
And since He bids me seek His face
I’ll believe His word and trust His grace
I’ll cast on Him my every care
And wait for thee sweet hour of prayer

Por Tú virtud duice oración

Lyrics:

(Knock)
Spoken Vocal:  "What was that?"  "I think somebody’s knocking at the door" "Who could that be at this hour?"

Chorus 1:
The Savior is knockin’ at your door
Won’t you let Him in
He’s knockin’ at your door
Won’t you let Him in
Knock and the door will be opened to you
If you will answer He’ll carry you through
He’s knockin’ (knock, knock)
Knockin’ at your door (knockin' at your door)

Repeat Chorus 1

In these days of tribulation
We’re oppressed by what we hear (what we hear)
And the worldly noise around us
Can distract us from what’s clear
We must never fail to listen to what He has called us for
‘Cause He is knockin’ (knock, knock)
Knockin’ at your door

Chorus 2:
The Savior is knockin’ at your door
Won’t you let Him in
He’s knockin’ at your door (won't you let Him in)
Won’t you let Him in
Knock and the door will be opened to you (and He will answer you too)
If you will answer He’ll carry you through
He’s knockin’ (knock, knock)
Knockin’ at your door (knockin' at your door)

Now there are those who heard the calling
But continue on their way (on their way)
Someday I will obey Him
That’s exactly what they say
But I know a day is coming
And that’s one thing for sure
And He’ll be knockin’ (knock, knock)
Knockin’ at your door

Chorus 3:
The Savior is knockin’ at your door (won't you let Him in)
Won’t you let Him in
He’s knockin’ at your door (won't you let the Savior in)
Won’t you let Him in
Knock and the door will be opened to you
If you will answer He’ll carry you through
He’s knockin’ (knock, knock)
Knockin’ at your door (knockin' at your door)

Chorus 4:
The Savior is knockin’ at your door (the Savior is knockin' at your door)
Won’t you let Him in
He’s knockin’ at your door (I've heard Him knockin' like this before)
Won’t you let Him in
Knock and the door will be opened to you (and He will carry you through)
If you will answer He’ll carry you through
He’s knockin’ (knock, knock)
Knockin’ at your door (knockin' at your door)

He is knockin’ (knock, knock)
Knockin’ at your door (knockin' at your door)
Oh yeah He’s knockin’ (knock, knock)
Knockin’ at your door (don't you hear knockin' at your door) (knockin' at your door)
