| 01 Armed And Dangerous
Words and music: Bob Hartman It used to be a distant call Thought to be for some but never all Now our wounded lay on every side Now this call to arms can't be denied The enemy will tremble As young and old assemble A mighty army up in arms Armed and dangerous God's enemies will scatter Armed and dangerous We'll see the darkness shatter His armor is worth its weight No weapon can penetrate Armed and dangerous We're ready to storm the gate We're not so tough on our own Not one can even stand all alone Just a rag tag army at its best We sometimes even fail the smallest test But through this tribulation There comes a transformation We don the armor of our King Stand! Up against the flood Stand! Covered by His blood We are the standard He has raised Stand! Earnestly contend Stand! To the very end We've only just begun to fight |
| 02 I Am On The Rock
Words and music: Bob Hartman and John Elefante The earth is shakin', it's like a bad dream This world is crumblin', comin' apart at the seam but I am on the Rock Everywhere I'm turning it's only bad news This bomb is tickin' and we're getting to the end of the fuse but I am on the Rock I am on the Rock, the sure foundation I am on the Rock, I am on the Rock I am on the Rock, His revelation I am on the Rock, I am on the Rock Though the winds may blow And though the floods may grow I shall not be moved, 'cause I am on the Rock The storm's approaching, I'm standing high and dry Firmly planted on the Rock that is higher than I I am on the Rock Kingdoms failing, they fall around me Plans eroded, and washing away to the sea I am on the Rock There is no Rock in this world but our God |
| 03 Creed
Words and music: Bob Hartman I believe in God the Father - maker of heaven and earth And in Jesus Christ His only Son, I believe in the virgin birth I believe in the Man of Sorrows bruised for iniquities I believe in the Lamb who was crucified and hung between two thieves I believe in the ressurection on the third and glorious day And I believe in the empty tomb and the stone that the angel rolled away He descended and set the captives free And now He sits at God's right hand and prepares a place for me This is my creed - the witness I have heard The faith that has endured This truth is assured Through the darkest ages past Though persecuted, it will last And I will hold steadfast to this creed I believe He sent His Spirit to comfort and to reveal To lead us into truth and light, to baptize and to seal I believe that He will come back the way He went away And receive us all unto Himself, but no man knows that day I believe He is the Judge of all men, small and great The ressurected souls of men receive from Him their fate Some to death and some to life, some to their reward Some to sing eternal praise forever to our Lord |
| 04 Beyond Belief
Words and music: Bob Hartman We're content to pitch our tent When the glory's evident Seldom do we know the glory came and went Moving can seem dangerous In this stranger's pilgrimage Knowing that you can't stand still, you cross the bridge There's a higher place to go Beyond belief, beyond belief Where we reach the next plateau Beyond belief, beyond belief And from faith to faith we grow Towards the center of the flow Where He beckons us to go Beyond belief, beyond belief Leap of faith without a net Makes us want to hedge our bet Waters never part until our feet get wet There's a deeper place to go Where the road seems hard to hoe He who has begun this work won't let it go And it takes so long to see the change But we look around and it seems so strange We have come so far but the journey's long And we once were weak but now we're strong |
| 05 Love
Words and music: Bob Hartman Love is patient, love is kind No eyes of envie, true love is blind Love is humble, it knows no pride No selfish motive hidden inside Love is gentle, makes no demands Despite all wrong, true love still stands Love is holy, love is pure It lasts forever, it will endure Love knows when to let go Love knows when to say no Love grows in the light of the Son And love shows the world that the Son of Love has come Love is loyal, believes the best It loves the truth, love stands the test Love is God sent in His Son Love forgives all we have done In this world where hatred seems to grow True love goes against the flow And becomes so hard to show In this world where push turns into shove We have strength to rise above Through the power of His love Lord, we need to know the power of Your love |
| 06 Underground
Words and music: Bob Hartman and John Elefante Look at the front page, turn on the tv They fire another round at you and me Their guns are loaded, they're taking aim Nobody told them we're not all the same No paranoia, nobody could Just write it off as being Hollywood The innuendo between the lines Leaves no confusion 'bout what's on their minds I won't go underground I won't turn and flee I won't bow the knee I won't go underground I won't run and hide from the rising tide I won't go underground I won't compromise what the world denies I won't go underground And I'm not ashamed of the cross I've claimed They're taking notes on what we say You know they'd like to lock us all away Can't stop the movement, can't make it slow Persecution always makes us grow They got my number, it's no surprise I'm here and wearing no disguise Bring on the lions and heat up the fire It's not enough to stop this man's desire I won't go underground I won't turn and flee I won't bow the knee I won't go underground I keep holding fast till the very last I won't go underground I will turn my cheek, I will boldly speak I won't go underground I am not ashamed of the cross I've claimed I know the Spirit behind this force It's not surprising if you know the source I pray for freedom for helpless ones And I keep standing till the new day dawns And I won't lay low as the hatreds grow |
| 07 Seen And Not Heard
Words and music: Bob Hartman Too many black sheep in the family Too many stones from a house of glass They've heard the story, they've heard the lines But talk is too cheap to change their minds They want to see some vital signs Conviction - in the way we live Conviction - not a narrative Actions speak a little louder than words Seen and not heard, seen and not heard Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard Seen and not heard, seen and not heard Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard There's too much talk and not enough walk Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard Delayed reaction to hostility Brings us into reality Cause when we answer in our defense They can see through the false pretense They want to see some evidence Commitment - no more alibis Commitment - not a compromise Actions speak a little louder than words Let your light so shine in all you do With an answer near when they come to you Don't let your mouth start talkin' Until you feet start walkin' |
| 08 Last Daze
Words and music: Bob Hartman Somewhere in the darkest night a stranger has lost the way Cold wind and a distant light has carried his heart away Some say he was one of us, a prodigal gone astray But inside he's as cold as ice to the truth that he won't obey He won't discern - the point of no return In the last daze - the final haze There was strong delusion to believe a lie In the last daze before the blaze They couldn't see beyond their misty trance To grab the truth and have a fighting chance In the last daze Cold chills when the Spirit speaks that some shall depart from the faith All ends in calamity just when they thought it was safe They followed the lies - the fables men devised Some say it's a certainty, a sign of the times I am told But I weep for the souls of those who will never return to the fold |
| 09 What's In A Name
Words and music: Bob Hartman Some men called Him Rabbi, good teacher, nothing more The Son of just a carpenter who taught along the shore Some men called Him Master, Elijah come again Some left their nets to follow Him to learn to fish for men Some say He is Messiah, I Am, who's always been The Baptist called Him Lamb of God who takes away our sin What's in a name that the demons flee What's in a name that the captives go free What's in a name that every knee should bow In the name of Jesus, name above all names There is power and glory, forever and ever Forever and ever Some said Son of David returning to His throne Some said He's the Son of Man with origin unknown And one said He's the Son of God, the Rock on which we stand The Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end No other name can sound so sweet No other name is so complete No other name can bring release The Mighty God, the Prince of Peace |
| 10 Prayer
Words and music: Bob Hartman and John Elefante First I want to thank You Lord for being who You are For coming to the rescue of a man who's drifted far For calling me to be Your son and calling me to serve Lord the way You've blessed my life is more than I deserve Keep the ones I love so dearly Fill their emptiness while I am gone And fill the loneliness in me This is my prayer Lifted to You Knowing You care even more than I do This is my prayer Lifted in Your name Your will be done I humbly claim Let me be the evidence of what Your grace can do To a generation struggling to find themselves in You May they come to know the love of God May their eyes be made to see Give me the opportunity to share the truth that sets them free And may unity in all things Be the banner of Your church And let revival's fire begin to burn As we face the last and final hours Turn a wayward country back to You And keep us from the evil that devours Keep us on the path and lead us through Keep us in Your light until Your kingdom comes And our work is done This is my prayer Lifted to You Knowing You care so much more than I do This is my prayer In Jesus' name Your will be done I humbly claim This is my prayer |
