02 Who's On The Lord's Side
Words and music: Rev. Timothy Wright Listen You've been running and running Running for a long time Your time is winding up You better make up your mind It's getting late in the evening The sun is going down You better get right While He may be found I want to know where do you stand Who's on the Lord's side I want to know where do you stand Who's on the Lord's side You got to work, got to work, work while it's day For the night is coming when you can't find your way Oh sinner, I wonder what will you do What You better choose this day - Tomorrow's not promised to you Get up if you're on the Lord's side Get on your feet |
03 Ready, Willing And Able
Words and music: Bob Hartman Enough of the sidelines, gotta get in the game When nothing is ventured, nothing is gained He's callin' the numbers play by play We're either out or we're in all the way Get in the action whatever the cost Nothing can equal the worth of the lost Shoulder to shoulder, hand to the plow Today is the day and the right time is now And the field is ready for the new reserve We will bring the harvest with a will to serve We're ready, willing and able To advance the light and defend the right Ready, willing and able Lifting up the cross to the waiting lost Ready to serve and willing to go Able to stand against the foe Ready, willing and able Instant in season drop of a hat Bases are loaded, it's our turn at bat Pressure is mounting, the tension is hot Heaven is watching to see what we've got There is strength in numbers, there is hope in One We are called and chosen to proclaim His Son He's already given us all that we need With love in our message and hope in our creed When Yahweh is for us and faith is our stay No power below us can stand in our way |

Words: Bob Hartman Music: John Elefante and Bob Hartman You've got Your hand on my heart and I won't walk away You've got a hold of my life and I'm here to stay You've got Your hand on my heart I remember when You first touched my heart And the seed of life within began its start Now I've finally found security Now I finally see I'm Yours eternally You've got Your hand on me You've got Your hand on my heart and I won't walk away You've got a hold of my life and I'm here to stay You've got Your hand on my heart And now I know That You won't let me go I don't want to lose another day Feeling You're a million miles away I just want to know, I want to know without a doubt I will always feel Your loving hand is reaching out I feel Your touch every night and every day With Your hand on my pulse I won't easily stray But if I ever do, a gentle tug will pull me through I just have to let You know That I love You so |
05 I Need To Hear From You
Words and music: Bob Hartman I've been away for a little while And I don't like where it takes me Out of touch I'm going out of my mind It's times like these that really break me So here I am all alone, I'm waiting on You Just a word will get me through I need to hear from You Before this night is through I need to hear from You So I'm waiting, waiting just to hear from You My whole world is turning upside down When I'm lacking in direction I don't care if it takes all night I need to feel Your sweet affection So let me hear words of life I'm lost without You Speak to me the way You do I've been here in this place before And You're not the one to blame No I need to know what You have in store So I'm on my knees callin out Your name |
06 Dance
Words: Bob Hartman Music: John Elefante I've been to the party and I left alone And I've danced with a few that I'd be better off on my own I've been to the altar and I know I kneeled But I ended up dancing in the grass of another field Yeah Then someone told me I heard someone say Dance with the one who brung ya Dance with the one you know who got you there Dance with the one who brung ya Don't change hats, you know it's the one you wear My feet start moving down inside my shoes But I don't want to settle for the beat of a lonely blues And there's no use dancin' to a different drum When I've seen what happens and I know what will become Yeah I can testify it's never worth a try I looked high, I looked low You're never gonna find someone who loves you so Stand tall, stand strong You're only gonna see you're right where you belong Don't try to fix what has never been broke |
07 Secret Weapon
Words: Bob Hartman Music: Bob Hartman and John Elefante I've waited patiently for your reply You say you'll come around by and by I've tried to show the way into the light But I just won't let you go without a fight You think my hands are tied But you will never hide, no I've got you in my sight day and night I've got a secret weapon I'll pray for you I've got a secret weapon Gonna get through I really care about you I'll pray for you I've told you everything you need to know But you still fluctuate to and fro You just can't push yourself over the edge So I will pull the rug behind the hedge How can you ever lose This deal you can't refuse So with your hands up high Reach for the sky I won't give up on you I'll pray till the night is through And you surrender to the light Come on surrender |
08 Sight Unseen
Words and music: Bob Hartman For so long I was depending upon My senses and fences I tried to ride on And trusting in things that can never be seen Was always a crutch on which others must lean Thinking if I could see I would believe Then somebody said believe and you will see Sight unseen, sight unseen You have to take it sight unseen Blinded by the darkness only faith can come between Sight unseen, sight unseen Evidence built into every design Led to conviction between every line Faith is the key that can open the veil To Love incarnated and pierced with a nail Listen my friend, have I got news for you The nails in His hands and feet were meant for you |
09 Hey World
Words and music: Bob Hartman It could have gone either way when it came down to the choice To keep the life within a life that had no voice It must have surely seemed the harder road to choose To be so young to have to say who had the most to lose But she came through like a champ and she blessed the world that day Then gave the hope of a better life when she gave him away Now the innocence and joy is there each day he wakes Expressions of his love of life in every breath he takes He could have been thrown away before he had a chance to say Hey world, I am here and I have something to give Hey world, I'm alive and I am wanting to live He turned to lock the door as he wiped away a tear The hopelessness of missing love, his adolescent fear As he struggled for the strength to put the gun away He found the courage and the hope to face another day He could have been blown away before he had a chance to say Down the corridor of life in between our death and birth We may start to lose our way in the search to find our worth Our value comes in the fact we live Life is a gift only God can give |
