There's Something About That
Name
A Wonderful
Savior
Medley
If That Isn't Love
I Know That My Redeemer Lives
What a Savior!
Jesus Paid it All
Rise Again
Won't It Be Great?
Isn't the Name of Jesus Something Wonderful?
There's Something About That Name
Words and music:
Lead: None
Spoken Vocal: C.D. Davis
Lyrics:
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
There's just something about that
name
Master, Savior, Jesus
Like the fragrance after the
rain
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Let all Heaven and Earth proclaim
Kings
and kingdoms
Will all pass away
But there's something about that
Name
Spoken Vocal:
Jesus, a mere mention of His name can calm the storm,
heal the broken, raise the dead. At the name of Jesus I have seen
sin hardened men melted, diralects transformed, the lights of hope put
back in the eyes of a hopeless child. At the name of Jesus hatred
and bitterness turn to love and forgiveness, arguments cease. I've
sat beside a dying saint, her body racked with pain, who in those final
fleeting seconds summoned her last ounce of ebbing strength to whisper
earth's sweetest name, "Jesus, Jesus." Emporers have tried to
destroy it, philosophies have tried to stamp it out, tyrants have tried to
wash it from the face of the earth with the very blood of those who
claimed it, yet still it stands. There shall be that final day when
every voice that has ever uttered a sound, every voice of Adam's race
shall raise in one great mighty chorus to proclaim the name of
Jesus. Ah, so you see, it was not mere chance that caused the Angel
one night long ago to say to a virgin maiden, "His name shall be called
Jesus." Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, you know there really is something
about that name.
But there's something about that Name
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Scriptural Reference:
"Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, 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." Phillipians 2:9-11
Words and Music:
Lead: C.D. Davis
Lyrics:
Jesus my Savior sought and found me one day
(He found me) Wond'ring
in sin (so lonely), hopeless within
(He gently) Took all my
sadness and my sorrow away
(Oh what a) Wonderful Savior is He (a gentle
loving Savior)
Chorus:
I'm (I'm) so (so) glad (glad) He (He) saved me one
day
And took my burdens away and now He's with me stay
(forever)
Though (though) the (the) skies (skies) be (be)
clouded or gray
I'll praise Him 'til His sweet face I shall see
(His face I'll see in glory)
Then (then) while (while) a- (a-) -ges
(-ges) yonder shall roll
I'll praise Him in (in) that (that) love-
(love-) -ly (-ly) home of the soul (I'll praise Him)
With all the free
my song there ever shall be
Oh what a wonderful Savior is He
(Savior is He)
I am so happy since He found me that day (And saved me)
Praise to
His name (forever), banished my shame
(And with Him) I shall reach
heaven at the end of the way
(Oh what a) Wonderful Savior is He (a
gentle loving Savior)
Repeat Chorus

Lyrics:
Jesus loves me, this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones
to Him belong
They are weak, but He is strong
Is your burden heavy as you bear it all alone
Does the road you
travel harbor danger yet unknown
Are you growing weary in the struggle
of it all
Jesus will help you when on His name you call
He is always there, hearing every prayer faithful and true
Walking
by our side, in His love we hide all the day through
When you get
discouraged just remember what to do
Reach out to Jesus, He's reaching
out to you
I keep falling in love with Him over and over and over and over
again
I keep falling in love with Him over and over and over and over
again
He gets sweeter and sweeter as the days go by, oh what a love
between my Lord and I
I keep falling in love with Him over and over and
over and over again
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart every word
Tell me
the story most precious
Sweetest that ever was heard
Tell how the
angels in chorus
Sang as they welcomed His birth
“Glory to God in
the highest!
Peace and good tidings to earth”
Chorus:
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart every
word
Tell me the story most precious
Sweetest that ever was
heard
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves
me
The Bible tells me so
Scriptural Reference:
"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor
demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height
nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us
from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans
8:38-39
“For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the
man Christ Jesus, 6who gave himself as a ransom for all men--the
testimony given in its proper time.” 1 Timothy 2:5-6
Words and music: Dottie Rambo (1969)

If That
Isn't Love by Revival.
Lead: None
Lyrics:
He left the splendor of heaven
Knowing His destiny
Was the lonely
hill of Golgotha
There to lay down His life for me
Chorus:
If that isn't love, the ocean is dry
There's no stars in
the sky, and the sparrow can't fly
If that isn't love, then heaven's a
myth
There's no feeling like this, if that isn't love
Even in death He remembered
The thief hanging by His side
He
spoke with love and compassion
Then He took Him to paradise
Repeat Chorus
If that isn't love
Scriptural Reference:
"This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins." 1 John 4:9-10
Words and music: Fred A. Fillmore (1944)

From sin and

I know, I know that my Redeemer lives
I know, I know
eternal life He gives
I know that my (I know) Redeemer lives, (that) my

A home (a home), a house not made with hands

Lyrics:
Once I was straying in sin's dark valley
No hope within could I
see
They searched through heaven and found the Savior
To save a
poor lost soul like me
Chorus:
O What a Savior, O hallelujah
His heart was broken on
Calvary
His hands were nail-scarred, His side was riven
He gave His
life-blood for even me
Death's chilly waters I'll soon be crossing
His hand will lead me
safe o'er
I'll join the chorus in that great city
And sing up
there for evermore
Repeat Chorus

"It will be a sign and witness to the Lord Almighty in the land of Egypt. When they cry out to the Lord because of their oppressors, he will send them a savior and defender, and he will rescue them." Isaiah 19:20
Words: M.S. Shaffer
Music: Samuel W. Beazley
Lead: C.D. Davis
Lyrics:
Gone is all my debt of sin, a great change is brought
within
And to live I now begin, risen from the fall
Yet the debt I
did not pay, someone died for me one day
Sweeping all the debt away,
Jesus paid it all
Chorus:
Jesus died and paid it on the cross of Calvary (Jesus died
and paid it all, yes on the cross of Calvary)
And my heart was melted
at His dying call (Oh and my stony heart was melted at His
dying, dying call)
Oh His heart was broken on the tree for you and
me (Oh His heart with shame was broken on the tree for you and
me)
And the debt is cancelled, Jesus paid it all (And the debt, the
debt is cancelled, Jesus paid it, paid it all)
Sinner not for me alone did the Son of God atone
Your debt too He
made His own on the cruel true
Come to Him with all your sin, He as
white as snow within
Full salvation you may win and rejoice with me
Scriptural Reference:
"For this reason he had to be made like his brothers in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people." Hebrews 2:17

Lyrics:
Go ahead drive the nails in my hands
Laugh at me where you
stand
Go ahead say it isn't me
The day will come when you will
see
Chorus 1:
'Cause I'll rise again
There's no power on earth can
tie me down
Yes I'll rise again
Death can't keep me in the
ground
Go ahead mock my name
My love for you is still the same
Go ahead
bury me
But very soon I will be free
Repeat Chorus 1
Go ahead (go ahead) say I'm dead and gone
But you will see that you
were wrong
Go ahead (go ahead) try to hide the Son
But all will
see that I'm the one

'Cause I'll come again
There's no power on earth
can keep me back
Yes I'll come again
Come to take my people

Chorus:
Won't it be great (won't it be great) to walk with Jesus (to
walk with Jesus)
Won't it be fine to see that city made of
gold
Won't it be grand (won't it be grand) to talk with Jesus (grand to
talk with Jesus)
And to hear His story once again retold (retold)
When we get to heaven yes He'll welcome children
Then He'll show us
everything He has for us up there
Mansions fine and lights that shine
from God's eternal presence
We will sing aloud and praise in heaven so
fair

Just to save a sinful soul like mine

wonderful, (it is) wonderful

Great redeeming
