ROB FRAZIER - CUT IT AWAY

01 Cut It Away
Words and music: Rob Frazier, Steve Camp and Carol Buckley Frazier

You thought you could make it
Flirting with the dark side of your past
Hoping nobody would find you out
So you try to fake it
Fooling yourself that the game will last
But Somebody knows what you're all about

Why don't you cut it away, oh cut it away
Take a spiritual knife to the sing in your life
And do it today
Why don't you cut it away, c'mon, cut it away
Don't you give it a rest till there's nothing left
And nothing remains
Cut it away

Better face your condition
You're acting like you've got it under control
But sin is a cancer that eats you alive
You need an operation
Oh, do a little surgery on your soul
Call for the Doctor before you die (cause He knows where to)

Cut it away before it festers and ruins your life
Take the word of the Lord
It's a spiritual sword
That shows you where to begin
02 Come On, Elaine
Words and music: Rob Frazier

Elaine lives on the bad side of town
Nothing goes on there, it only goes down
Her family is a sad situation
And she's the victim of their frustration
Down the street at the church it's a different world
Wednesday night and Sunday
The Christians there could really help that girl
If only they would say

Come on, Elaine
Come on, Elaine
Come on, Elaine
Let's get together
Come on, Elaine
Oh Elaine
Come on, Elaine
We'll try to make it better (for you)

At her school nobody knows she's there
Except to laugh at how she does her hair
She ain't got money for the Sassoon jeans
She don't know how to play the video machines
Well at the church there's a girl who could reach her
But it's kinda out of her way
Her choice of friends is her finest feature
And she's too cool to say

We'll try to make it better for you
You need to know somebody cares for you
Someone to help with what you're going through
And share the love of Jesus with you
03 He Is All You Need
Words and music: Rob Frazier and Steve Camp

When you're alone, your heart is torn
He is all you need
When you're confused, your soul is bruised
He is all you need
He's the Rock of your soul, He's the Anchor that holds
Through your desperate times
When the way is unsure His love will endure
And peace you will find
Through all your years - the joy, the tears
He is all you need

When you give in to some familiar sin
He is all you need
Guilt has you paralyzed, it slowly eats you alive
He is all you need
He'll be faithful to you though your heart is untrue
And your love's grown cold
His forgiveness is real - it can comfort and heal
Your sin-weary soul
God loves you so, He'll never let you go
He is all you need
04 Stolen Love
Words and music: Rob Frazier and Steve Camp

Have you ever wanted something that you could not have
But you hungered for it anyway?
Your passion was so strong it nearly drove you mad
But in the end you know you had to pay

For stolen love
Oh you had to taste it
Stolen love
Now it caused you pain
Stolen love
Oh it left you dry and wasted
But now you know that love is not a game

Well some people think that pleasure can fulfill their need
That it can satisfy a hungry soul
But love is not just something that you take when you need
It's a gift from God and we've got to treat it so

Now do you see the error of your way
The sadness of a hardened heart
If you want a love that will remain
In Jesus you've got to start

Once I wanted something that I should not have had
But hungered for it anyway
My passion was so strong it nearly drove me mad
But in the end I had to pay
05 You Know What's Right
Words and music: Rob Frazier, Steve Camp and Carol Buckley Frazier

You're such a big man, such a strong man
Always acting like you've got it under control
But how you're talking and how you're walking
Don't look too healthy for the state of your soul
You've been playing with your religion
But all you gotta make is one decision

You know what's right
But you don't wanna do it
You know what's right
But you just can't get to it
You know it's time
For you to finally do what you say
Come on!
Get it right today

There's always something to make you give in
Always something there to trip you up and make you fall
But your salvation's just conversation
Till you get ready to surrender it all
Compromise can be so frustrating
I kinda wonder why you're hesitating

God's Word is power
His Word is true
The Overcomer is living in you
And He knows what you're going through
06 Tonight
Words and music: Rob Frazier

I was talking to a friend of mine
He said his life was a mess, his heart was over the line
Sometimes he even got to thinking
It'd be better over, over
Then we got to talkin' (I said)
You're in a bad shape, it's true
But I got good news here for you
Right here, right now, right here tonight

Tonight
You can leave your old world behind
Leave it in the night
Leave it
Why don't you leave your old world behind

Then you know he asks me earnestly:
Tell me who is the One who can do this for me?
I had no trouble answering
I said it's Jesus, Jesus
Then we got to talkin' (I said)
He is the Holy One
The Father's only Son
He can do it and do it tonight

Don't say that, don't say that
There's no way
Back from where you've been
He can heal you, oh reveal to you the way
The way to be born again
Find a world of difference inside

Sometimes you think you're 'bout to go insane
Cause it's a runaround world
Ain't no shortage of pain
But don't you ever let the Devil
Tell you that it's over, over
Cause if you start believing
The Lord will come to you
And He will see you through
He can do it, and do it tonight
07 Weight Of The World
Words and music: Rob Frazier

Do you feel like a lonely soul in the city tonight
Struggling to survive but it's a losing fight
Hurting and crying just look at you
You're slowly dying
But Jesus can take your heavy load

Put the weight of the world
Upon His shoulders
You've been trying just a little too long
To carry it on your own
So put the weight of your world
Upon His shoulders
Cause when you trust in Him
Believe in Him, hope in Him
You will be strong again

It's hard to live your life with your heart on the ground
It seems like nobody cares that you're goin' down
But Jesus, He cares for you
All of your burdens He bears for you
For when you are weak He will be strong
08 Train Up A Child
Words and music: Rob Frazier and Steve Camp

Sometimes it's hard to remember
When your youthful passions ran free and wild
Though now to God it's easier to surrender
You recall your struggles as a child

Oh now you're a father or a mother
Holdin' on to your kids - afraid to let go
Give them the freedom to discover
How to follow Jesus on their own

Train up a child
In the way that he should live
And give him the tools that he needs to grow
Though the world may often entice him
And try to snatch his soul
If you do your job
He'll remember when he's grown

Children are not our possessions
They are loaned to us just for a while
And if you see them stray in the wrong direction
Hope and pray that the right way they will find

And as he looks back through the years
Will he reflect upon the days
When your strong love and sincerity
Were the finest gifts you gave
What a sweet thing
Just to hear you baby say, I will
09 666
Words and music: Rob Frazier and Steve Camp

He came like a saviour from the east
With the face of an angel
But the soul of a beast
Out of war he promised peace
And to all prosperity
We trusted him and that was when
He brought us to our knees

We wanted an end to all our fears
He said that peace would reign a thousand years
And as we swallowed up his lies
Slowly we were paralyzed
He sealed our fate, then far too late
We saw through his disguise

666
It was hard to believe we could be so deceived by
666
For a mark on our skin we sold our souls to him

Without in no one could buy or sell
He made the world his throne - this prince of hell
And those who failed to worship him
Were never seen of heard again
His word was law, we surrendered all
But we prayed for life to end

He made war against the Saints
He cut them down and filled their graves
He blasphemed God in His dwelling place
And mocked His holy name
