Yolanda Adams Album

Written by Mervyn Warren / Fred Vaughn

Everywhere that I go
I must tell everyone of the Savior I know
And the things He has done
He's the Truth and the Life
And there's no other way to the Father
But by him

Long ago when He knew you'd be out on a limb
He gave His life for you
Can't you live yours for him
He's the Almighty Rock
And you won't have a firm foundation
Unless you're build on Him

You can't live without Him
You can't move without Him
You can't breathe without Him
You can't think about doing one thing without Him
You can't do without Him
'Cause there's no you without Him
Because He's the only way
The only way

There's no other name
Than the name of Jesus
There's no one
Than the one who frees us
There's no other way
No other way
What more can I say?
He's the only only way

[No lyrics]

Just A Prayer Away

I know that there are times in your life.
When the wheels just seem to turn
And uncertainty about your tomorrow to grow
One thing you should remember and you should always know
Out of everyone who loves you I love you the most

I am just a prayer away
Call my name with your heart and I’ll hear every word you say
When you cry at night I’ll wipe the tears away
Just pray my love and I’ll be there right away

You will never have to wonder about my love
Just put your faith in trust in my care oh
I will always be there to hold you in my arms
When your afraid don’t worry I’ll protect you from the storm
Out of everyone who loves you I your father loves you the most

I am just a prayer away
Call my name with your heart and I’ll hear every word you say
When you cry at night I’ll wipe the tears away
Just pray my love and I’ll be there right away
(Keep repeating for 4 rounds)

Let us worship Christ our Saviour
Let us worship Christ our Saviour
Let us worship Him
Let us worship Him
Let us worship Christ, our Lord
(repeat)

All the earth should praise Him
Let us bow down before Him
Let us enter into,His gates with thanksgiving
Come before His courts with praise
Lets us honor and adore Him
Lets us exalt Him for His goodness
For His love and kindness
And for His tender mercy
I will,I will,I will,I will worship Christ the Lord
I will worship Christ
I will worship Christ the Lord
I will worship you
I adore your name
Lord you're worthy
I worship Christ, the Lord

Tears streaming down, her heart is broken
And because her heart is hurting, so am I
He wears a frown, his dreams are choking
And because he stands alone, his dreams will die
So, humbly I come to you and I say
As I sound aloud the warfare of today
Please hear me, I pray

CHORUS
What about the children
To ignore is so easy
So many innocent children will choose the wrong way
So what about the children
Remember when we were children
And if not for those who loved us and who cared enough to show us
Where would we be today

So, where is your son
and where lies his refuge
And if that young man can't come to you, then where can that young man run to
She's such a foolish foolish girl, yet still, she's your daughter
And if you will just reminisce on all the crazy things that you did when you were that young
You see, it's not where you've been, nor what you've done
Because I know a friend who specializes in great outcomes
See His love overcomes

CHORUS
What about the children
To ignore is so easy
So many innocent children will choose the wrong way
So what about the children
Remember when we were children
And if not for those who loved us and who cared enough to show us
Where would we be today..............
What about the children they need our help today
And what about the children they need us
more than ever more than ever more than ever
what about the childen where would we be today
where would we be today
what about the children

Where would we be today
Where would we be today
Where would we be today
What about the the children

The storms of life will blow
They're sure to come and go
They meet us all at a time
When I'm calm and doing fine

But the Captain of my soul
He's always on board
He rocks me in His arms
While riding through the storm

Chorus
While riding through the storm
Jesus holds me in His arms
I am not afraid
Of the stormy winds and the waves

Though the tides become high
He holds me while I ride
I find safety in the masters arms
While riding through the storm
I have no fear of the raging seas
Knowing Jesus will forever be right here with me
He can speak to the wind to my enemies and to the waves
And he make them all behave

All power's in the masters hand
When I'm on sea or dry land
I found safety in the Master's holding arms
While riding through the storm
(oaah)While through the storm
Jesus holds me in his precious arms
Noohoho I'm not afraid of the stormy wind
No no

Written by Roberta Martin / Fanny Crosby

When I think about how you saved my soul
I'm compelled to praise you
Like a woman out of control
So I lift up holy hands
I take advantage of this chance to say thank you
When I think about what you brought me through
I'm reminded to praise you for all that you had do
So I lift up holy hands
I take advantage of this chance to say thank you
So from the bottom of my heart I say

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

When I think about were you brought me from
I gotta praise you like the victories already warm
And I lift my hand
I advantage of this chance to say thank you
When I think about oh Lord yes
Why you love me so
I'm compelled to praise you because
I really don't care whose looking and who knows that I love you
And I lift up my holy hands
I take advantage of this chance to say thank you
Oh, everyday of my life I just wanna say

Thank you, (Thank you Lord)
Thank you, (I gotta thank you)
Thank you, (Because of who you been to me)
Thank you, (You been a shealter in the storm)
Oh and I Thank you

And I say Thank you

With all my heart and all my soul
Everything within me says thank you Lord

[No lyrics]

Shattered, but I'm not broken
Wounded, but time will heal
Heavy the load, the cross I bear
Lonely the road I trod, I dare
Shaken, but here I stand
Weary, Still I press on
Long are the nights, the tears I cry
Dark are the days, no sun in the sky, yes

Chorus:
Yet still I rise
Never to give up
Never to give in against all odds
Yet still I rise
High above the clouds
At times I feel alone
Yet still I rise

Sometimes I'm troubled, but not in despair
Struggling, I make my way through
Trials, they come to make me strong
I must endure, I must hold on

Chorus

Above all my problems
Above all my eyes can see
Knowing God is able to strengthen me
To strengthen me

Yet still I rise
Never to give up
Oh, Never to give in against all odds
Yet still I rise
High above the clouds
At times I feel low
Yet still I
I need to know which way to go
Yet still I
At times I feel low
Yet still I
Oh---- I rise
Yet still I rise

Before I Tell Them
Lord, please tell me
Before I serve them
Lord, please serve me
How can I lead
Where I've not been
How can I show
If I don't know
Before I tell them
Lord, please tell me

Before I teach them
Lord, please teach me
Before I reach out to them
Lord, reach out to me
How can I lead
Where I've not been
How can I show
If I don't know
Before I tell them
Oh Lord, please tell me

Before I tell them my way
Sit me down and make me silent
And give it to me your way
Please don't let the things I do
Distract me from hearing a word from you

Before I tell them
Lord, tell me
Before I serve them
Please serve me
Before I say one word or sing one word
Say it or sing it in me
Before I tell them
Oh Lord, tell me
Teach me; show me; reach out to me;
Tell me

[No lyrics]

You have longed for sweet peace
And for faith to increase
You have earnestly, so fervently
Oh, you really prayed
Oh, yes you have

But you cannot find rest
Nor be perfectly blessed
Until on the altar, until it's laid

Is your all on the altar of sacrifice?
Is it laid?
Your heart, does the spirit control?

Now, you can only
You can only be blessed
And have peace and sweet rest
After you have yielded unto the Lord
Your body and your soul
Oh yes

Is your all on the altar of sacrifice laid?
Your heart, does the spirit control?
You can only, only, only be blessed
And have peace and sweet rest (Peace and sweet rest)
After you have yielded him
Yielded him your body and your soul
Oh

That's all he wants
Everything, everything, everything
So, would you walk with the Lord (Walk with the Lord)
In the beauty of his light
Would you obey his word (obey his word)
Every day and every night

We will never know just what the Lord
Has to bestow upon his children until we
Give him complete control

Give him your heart (Give him your heart)
And your mind, your mind, your mind
Give him your spirit
(That's what he wants, that's he needs, that's he wants, that's what he needs.Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Your soul
(He wants your soul. That's what he wants, that's what he need, that's what hewants, that's what he needs.)
Give him your thoughts, give him your ways, your desire
Just give him your body and your soul (your soul)

Written by Michael McKay

Take away any desire in me that hurts You
Take away anything that stands between You and me
I want to be what You created me to be
It's my desire that You find favor in me
Lord
Take away anything that displeases You

Take away any evil thought within me
Take away anything that proves to break your heart
I want to be in sweet communion with You
It's my desire to do everything You want me to do
Lord
Take away anything that displeases You

Remove all doubt
All insecurity
Erase all hate
All iniquity
Discard all the fear
found deep within me
Lord
Take away anything that displeases You

Take away Lord
Take away

Take away any desire in me that hurts You
