ONE DAY AT A TIME by Merle Haggard
1ST VERSE: “I’m only human, I’m just a man.
Help me to believe, in what I can be, and all that I am.
Show me the stairway, that I have to climb,
Lord for my sake, teach me to take, one day at a time.”
CHORUS: “One day at a time, Sweet Jesus, That’s all I’m asking of you.
Give me the strength, to do everyday, what I have to do.
Yesterday’s gone, Sweet Jesus, and tomorrow may never be mine.
So for my sake, teach me to take, one day at a time.”
2ND VERSE: “I know You remember, when you walked among men.
Well Jesus You know, cause You’re looking below, it’s worse now than then…
Killing and cheating, stealing my mind. So, for my sake, teach me to take, one day at a time!
REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER
VERSE 1: “When you’re weary…Feeling small…When tears are in your eyes…Jesus can dry them all…
And by your side…Oh, when you’re all alone…And friends you just can’t find…
And like a bridge over troubled water…He can ease your mind!
Like a bridge over troubled water…He can ease your mind!
VERSE 2: When you’ve lost your way…When you’re on the street…
When times get oh so hard…Just cry out to Him…
To be the light, that shines, through your darkest night…Unto the dawn of day!
And like a bridge over troubled water…He will show the way!
Like a bridge over troubled water…He will show the way!
VERSE 3: There’s a Promised Land…Beyond the stars…
He’ll lead you there…If you will just follow Him
A land of joy…and no more tears or pain…Where love forever reigns!
Like a bridge over troubled water.,.to that Promised Land!
Like a bridge over troubled water…to that Promised Land!
To that Promised Land!

***********THERE CAME ONE FROM HEAVEN (“Nights in White Satin”)*********
1ST VERSE: “There came One from Heaven, to walk among men,
And called us ‘Come follow Me’, to a world without end…
And gave us a letter…from Heaven above,
to show us the way to live…and to tell of God’s love.
CHORUS: And Lord I’ll love You, yes, I will love You, and I will follow You…forever follow you!
2ND VERSE: There came One from Heaven, to a world lost in sin,
And showed us a better Way, then we crucified Him!
But the grave could not hold Him, and He rose up above,
And still He calls out to us, by His redeeming Love!
CHORUS: And Lord I’ll love You, yes, I will love You, and I will follow You…forever follow you!
3rd VERSE: There is a fountain…if you seek you will find,
Its waters will heal your soul…and bring peace of mind.
That fountain’s the Bible, with truth from above,
Its words will fill your heart, with Heaven’s sweet love!
CHORUS: Then you will love Him, yes, you will love Him, and you’ll live forever…You’ll live forever! Forever and ever! Amen!

And Your Word will set us free…And we will live eternally…Hide Your Word in our hearts today…”

IN THE SWEET BY & BY
VERSE 1: There’s a land that is fairer than day, And by faith we can see it afar
For the Father waits over the way, To prepare us a dwelling place there
CHORUS: In the sweet by and by We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore
VERSE 2: We shall sing on that beautiful shore, The melodious songs of the blessed
And our spirit shall sorrow no more, Not a sign for the blessing of rest
REPEAT CHORUS

FOLLOW ME
“When I found myself in times of trouble, gentle Shepherd came to me, speaking words of mercy, ‘Follow Me!’
And in my darkest hour, He was standing right in front of me, speaking words of mercy, ‘Follow Me!’
‘Follow Me, follow Me, follow Me, follow Me!’ Speaking words of mercy, ‘Follow Me!’
I pray for all the broken people, living life so hopelessly, hear the Shepherd’s calling, ‘Follow Me!’
And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light that shines on me! Shine on till forever, ‘Follow Me!’
‘Follow Me, follow Me, follow Me, follow Me!’ Speaking words of mercy, ‘Follow Me!’
I wake up to the sound of music, all of nature praising Thee, and echoes Jesus’s calling, ‘Follow Me!’
‘Follow Me, follow Me, follow Me, follow Me!’ Speaking words of mercy, ‘Follow Me!’
