LYRICS

YOU GOTTA HAVE HOPE

In the world today, everybody’s living with emotion,
Seeking high and low, looking for some harmony.
When the troubled heart is aching for a rest and some healing,
When joy is gone and everyone has left you behind.

You gotta have hope for the good times,
You gotta have dreams you can hold onto,
You gotta have peace in searching,
You gotta have love to sustain you.
You gotta get down in the trenches,
You gotta let God be there to walk you through.
You gotta hold tight to conviction,
And let fear pass by.

Reach inside, find out where the miracles are hiding.
Lay the sorrows down, the miseries will disappear.
You gotta trust your heart, and lean not into your own understanding.
Wipe away the tears, and find out where the soul resides

You gotta have hope for the good times,
You gotta have dreams you can hold onto,
You gotta have peace in searching,
You gotta have love to sustain you.
You gotta get down in the trenches,
You gotta let God be there to walk you through.
You gotta hold tight to conviction,
And let fear pass by.

You gotta have hope for the good times,
You gotta have dreams you can hold onto,
You gotta have peace in searching,
You gotta have love to sustain you.
You gotta get down in the trenches,
You gotta let God be there to walk you through.
You gotta hold tight to conviction,
And let fear pass by.

STILL MY HEART BELIEVES

I’ve never seen rainbows ever touch the ground.
I’ve never seen harps with any angels around.
I’ve never seen anyone heaven bound,
Still my heart believes.

I’ve never heard voices really pierce the veil.
I’ve never had a dream hit the Richter scale.
I’ve never seen peace on earth ever prevail,

Still my heart believes.
Cause there’s this love in the center,
Where my fading heart can enter,
It’s where peace and joy arise,
When my heart repeats the sound.
All the songs we’ll sing together,
On that very special day,
It’s loud and clear,
Right deep in here is love.

I’ve never seen sunsets tucked away.
I’ve never held pain in at bay.
Never really lived one perfect day,
Still my heart believes.

Still my heart believes.
Cause there’s this love in the center,
Where my fading heart can enter,
It’s where peace and joy arise,
When my heart repeats the sound.
All the songs we’ll sing together,
On that very special day,
It’s loud and clear,
Right deep in here is love.

I’M ON FIRE

Baby I can give you love when you’re feeling down,
And there isn’t anybody around,
When you’re tired and blue, and things are real tough,
I know what I’m saying cause I’m the real stuff.
Baby when the clouds get dark and the light is gone,
And you worry about singing your song.
Baby I’m standing, baby I’m here,
Baby I’m your loving man.

I’m on fire, I’m really on fire.

Baby get moving, ready to start,
Cause baby I’m feeling some things in my heart.
Baby I’m a man, baby I’m a lover,
Baby I’m one of a kind.
Baby I’m a lonely fool, with a pickup truck, in the middle of a rut,
Oh baby I’m crawling into your arms,
Baby I’m a wanton man.

I’m on fire, I’m really on fire
Baby get your blue jeans on,
and we’ll boogie on down to the river,
and keep running away.
Baby I’m ready, I’m aching to go,
Baby I really want you to know,
Baby I’m a lonely man, with a pickup truck, in the middle of a rut,
Oh baby I’m crawling into your arms,
Oh baby I’m a lonely man.

I’m on fire, Really on fire.
I’m on fire, Really on fire.
 

PURE GLORY

How long I walk a road
All I know it’s a heavy load
Never stop to count the days
Walking though shadows haze

Time keeps on spinnin round
Climb a hill then right back down
Looking for the city lights
Those gates of white

Pure glory
Pure glory

It’s cycling all through my mind
No more will I be blind
Another flash just the same
No more will I be lame
those trees on the river banks
Sought by many by countless ranks
Fight thought that misty dark
Lookin for that spark

Pure glory
Pure glory

By the shade I will lay me down
Dressed in white near the rushing sound
Where the waters keep flowin free
Washing down all over me
Praising him from night til dawn
With celestial heavenly songs
It was really worth the trip
The Shepard’s ship

Pure glory
Pure glory

When I reach that crested hill
When finally my soul is still
I’ll see his robe in red
For His starlet blood was shed
I’ll drop right to His feet
And finally admit defeat
Then at once I’ll rise again
To someone I’ve been

Pure glory
Pure glory
Pure glory
Pure glory
 

Shake It Up

Let me warn you now
The morning star is rising in the east
Calling you with love
Yet soberness
Come to the marriage feast
Where there is joy and perfect love
Your tears will be wiped away
All he has is yours to keep
The price is already paid

Come on now shake it up
Come now I said shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come now I said shake it up

Come on now wake up
Prepare your hearts
Get ready for the day
Must they first break up?
Holy break a part
Like a potter breaks his clay
Don’t you know the time is now?
There’s no more time to delay

Don’t you know?
Come hear me now.
The angels are making haste

Come on now shake it up
Come now I said shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come now I said shake it up

LOOKING FOR ZION

There’s a place that I’ve been searching, for all my life.
I’ve seen the vision in the glory light.
Oh mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy me.
How it changed my sight.

I have seen the Host of Heaven and the work of man,
All gathered in this place to become one.
Oh mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy me.
To be near to Zion

Oh, oh, oh, oh, looking for Zion.
Oh, oh, oh, I’m leaving for Zion.

I have seen the streets all paved with gold in the city of lights
Every pathway is amazing to behold.
Oh mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy me.
It’s in my heart and soul.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, looking for Zion.
Oh, oh, oh, I’m leaving for Zion.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, looking for Zion.
Oh, oh, oh, I’m leaving for Zion.
leaving for the Zion.

Looking for the Zi------
