Five Smooth Stones
Five smooth stones from a babbling brook,
They seemed to be just right
Five smooth stones young David took
To sling with all of his might
Goliath was big, over nine feet tall
With a spear like weaver’s beam
“Send a man to fight,” he told King Saul
Across the Elah stream
His voice like thunder filled the land
But his challenge was unmet
Not one of Israel’s men would stand
And face Goliath’s threat
So David took his sling and stones
And crossed the riverbed
Just David now must stand alone
Saul’s army all had fled
“I come to you in the name of the Lord,”
Young David shouted out
“You may have an awesome sword,
But God has greater clout.”
He took a stone and said a prayer
And slung it with all of his might
It hit Goliath’s forehead square
The Lord had won the fight
He wasn’t big, he wasn’t tall, he wasn’t even a soldier at all
But five smooth stones from the river he took, and made the giant fall
He could pray and he could sing
And he could twirl his home-made sling
Five smooth stones from the river he took, and made the giant fall
Five smooth stones from a riverbed
Five smooth stones and the challenge met
Five smooth stones and Goliath’s dead
But the victory was the Lord’s

When The Devil Comes A Knockin'
Satan’s very crafty when he comes to call
How cleverly he tempted me how quickly I would fall
But then I found the secret to winning in this war
Now when the devil comes a knockin’ I let Jesus get the door
When the devil comes a knockin’ I let Jesus get the door
He is my Savior, He is my Lord
He does all the talkin’, I don’t answer anymore
When the devil comes a knockin’ I let Jesus get the door
When I used to fall for Satan’s tricks it always turned out bad
Sin looked so nice when he enticed but afterward how sad
But then I met the Master and I was re-born
Now when the devil comes a knockin’ I let Jesus get the door
When the devil comes a knockin’ I let Jesus get the door
He is my Savior, He is my Lord
He does all the talkin’, I don’t answer anymore
When the devil comes a knockin’ I let Jesus get the door
When the devil comes a knockin’ I let Jesus get the door
He is my Savior, He is my Lord
He does all the talkin’, I don’t answer anymore
When the devil comes a knockin’ I let Jesus get the door
I let Jesus get the door, I let Jesus get the door

Jesus Made A Change
Jesus calmed the waves on stormy Galilee
Jesus cured the sick by pow’r divine
He made lame men walk and the blind to see
Jesus changed this hardened heart of mine
Jesus made a change, Jesus made a change
Jesus made a change in me
Jesus made a change, Oh how great a change
Jesus made a change in me
Jesus cleansed the lepers so the Bible says
Jesus changed the water into wine
Jesus sent new life in sleeping Lazarus
He can make a miracle in mine
Jesus made a change, Jesus made a change
Jesus made a change in me
Jesus made a change, Oh how great a change
Jesus made a change in me
Once I was a sinner walking my own way
Headin’ down that path of vain regret
Jesus turned me ‘round and washed my sins away
He removed the stains and guilty debt
Jesus made a change, Jesus made a change
Jesus made a change in me
Jesus made a change, Oh how great a change
Jesus made a change in me

Give Your Talents To The Lord
You may not sing like David
You may not preach like Paul
But give your talents to the Lord
And He will bless them all
The Bible’s filled with stories
Of those like you and me
Who gave their best to Jesus
And He gave them victory
Sometimes I think that I’m too small
To be of any good
I’d preach like Peter on Pentecost
If I only could
I’d heal the sick, I’d raise the dead
And walk on water too
But the task that He has given me
This much I can do
You may not preach like Peter
You may not speak like Paul
But give your talents to the Lord
And He will bless them all
A lad had only five small loaves
But He gave them to the Lord
With those He fed a multitude
On Galilee’s shore
Don’t wait for some great work to do
Or life will pass you by
Just do the job He’s given you
And give it your best try
You may not preach like Peter
You may not speak like Paul
But give your talents to the Lord
And He will bless them all
He will bless them all

The Funny Creatures Of The Wild
When He made the monkey’s face
I wonder if He smiled?
Don’t you think He had some fun
Making creatures of the wild
Did the hopping kangaroo
Put a twinkle in His eye?
Only He could think of all
The funny creatures of the wild
Ostrich eggs and spider legs can sometimes make me laugh
So do donkey ears and raccoon eyes
Leopard spots, Dalmatian dots and Bessie’s baby calf
Everywhere He’s left us a surprise
When He made the camel’s hump
I wonder if He smiled?
Don’t you think He had some fun
Making creatures of the wild
Did the long and tall giraffe
Put a twinkle in His eye?
Only He could think of all
The funny creatures of the wild
Ostrich eggs and spider legs can sometimes make me laugh
So do donkey ears and raccoon eyes
Leopard spots, Dalmatian dots and Bessie’s baby calf
Everywhere He’s left us a surprise
When He made the pelican
I wonder if He smiled?
Don’t you think He had some fun
Making creatures of the wild
Did the elephant’s long trunk
Put a twinkle in His eye?
Only He could think of all
The funny creatures of the wild

One Thing He Can't Do
The Bible says all power is His
And I’m sure the Bible’s true
He made the world and all that is
But there’s one thing He can’t do
He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
He’s the Almighty King Who can do anything
But He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
We’re told about His mighty deeds
His signs and wonders too
He calmed a lake and parted seas
But there’s one thing He can’t do
He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
He’s the Almighty King Who can do anything
But He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
He made the creatures big and small
From cat to kangaroo
His might and strength are known by all
But there’s one thing He can’t do
He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
He’s the Almighty King Who can do anything
But He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
With a few small fish and some loaves of bread
He fed a multitude
He healed the sick and raised the dead
But there’s one thing He can’t do
He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
He can’t love you more than He loves you right now
He’s the Almighty King Who can do anything

In Christ We're All One Family
You may be black or white
With skin that’s dark or light
You may be short or tall
It matters not at all
You’re precious in His sight
No matter what your height
In Christ we’re all one family
We may be from diff’rent places
With diff’rent fathers and mothers
But don’t think we’re diff’rent races
We’re really sisters and brothers
You’re from a foreign land
Then let me shake your hand
Your words don’t sound the same
I’ll try to learn you name
What matters most of all
Is that you’ve heard His call
In Christ we’re all one family
We may be from diff’rent places
With diff’rent fathers and mothers
But don’t think we’re diff’rent races
We’re really sisters and brothers
We know when snowflakes fall
If you examined all
You would confirm the claim
No two are just the same
And so it is you see
Just like you and me
In Christ we’re all one family
In Christ we’re all one family
In Christ we’re all one family

We may be from diff’rent places
With diff’rent fathers and mothers
But don’t think we’re diff’rent races
We’re really sisters and brothers
We know when snowflakes fall
If you examined all
You would confirm the claim
No two are just the same
And so it is you see
Just like you and me
In Christ we’re all one family
In Christ we’re all one family
In Christ we’re all one family

His Name Is Jesus
He put the stars of the sky in place
He knows how galaxies start
He drew the design for the worlds in space
And knows how to keep them apart
His name is Jesus and He wants you to know
That He has a plan for you
So stay by His side and let Him be your guide
He’s always there to see you through
He put the wings on the honeybee
He gave it power to fly
He taught it to gather from ev’ry tree
The pollen that blossoms hide
His name is Jesus and He wants you to know
That He gave His life for you
There on Calv’ry’s tree He died for you and me
To save us from eternal doom
He paints the summer sky deep blue
Golden is the autumn He brings
White with winter’s snow He makes the world seem new
Then colors with rainbows in spring
His name is Jesus and He wants you to know
That He’s coming back for you
Up in the sky, we’ll see Him by and by
And may that day be very soon
His name is Jesus and He wants you to know
That He’s coming back for you
Up in the sky, we’ll see Him by and by
And may that day be very soon
May that day be very soon

City In The Sky
The things of earth are fading like the sunset’s ev’ning glow
I’m looking for the city in the sky
I won’t waste my life in making this world my final home
I’m looking for the city where nothing ever dies
The city He’s prepared, the city built four-square
I’m looking for that city where nothing ever dies
The things of earth are fading like the leaves of autumn’s trees
I’m looking for the city in the sky
I can’t spend my time in dreaming of the fame this world brings
I’m looking for the city where nothing ever dies
I’m looking for the city where nothing ever dies

Before The World Began
Long before the world began
God saw the plight of man
He saw sin’s fearful hold
Upon the human soul
He knew none else could save
Man from an eternal grave
The scars were in His hand
Before the world began
Before the world began
Before the world began
Because He cared the cross was there
Before the world began
Infinite wisdom sublime
Unerring knowledge divine
The future as clear as today
Tomorrow as yesterday
Long before the stars were formed
Before the galaxies were born
He saw man’s desperate need
He saw Mount Calvary
Long before the realm of time
The cross was in his mind
The scars were in His hand
Before the world began
Before the world began
Before the world began
Because He cared the cross was there

Have You Ever Wondered?
Have you ever wondered who
Made birds chirp and kitties mew
Could this just have happened on its own?
I doubt it
I wonder what the odds would be
For the earth to come to be
In ten or twenty million years alone
Without Him
Now evolutionists declare
It all just happened by chance
But I believe that God was there
To make the creatures, trees and plants
Bats are nearly blind they say
But radar helps them make their way
Some of man’s inventions come straight from
What God made
The birds fly south when it gets cold
Navigating by stars we’re told
Then back up north for summer they will come
With God’s aid
Now evolutionists declare
It all just happened by chance
But I believe that God was there
To make the creatures, trees and plants
God provides for our ev’ry need
Air to breathe and food to eat
The sun He gave to smile faithfully
Above you
When the flowers start to bloom
The whole world enjoys their sweet perfume
Could it be He wants to say to me
“I love you”
Nature shows that God is telling me
“I love you”

Bank Of Mercy
There is a bank in Paradise
Its vaults are lined with grace
God’s mercy’s there in full supply
To cover our sinful ways
The bank of heaven is open
Each night and ev’ry day
Its doors are never barred or closed
This bank of mercy and grace
O the bank of mercy and grace
God’s bank of mercy and grace
It’s open still, its coffers are filled
God’s bank of mercy and grace
We draw from the bank of mercy
Whenever we have the need
If we stumble or fall, on Jesus we call
He’s ready to save instantly
He covers our debts and our failings
Our record is cleared that day
It’s purged with a flood of His cleansing blood
From the bank of mercy and grace
O the bank of mercy and grace
God’s bank of mercy and grace
It’s open still, its coffers are filled

God's Gonna Fix It Someday
The Bible tells us about a man who lived here long ago
He was rich in flocks and herds and land, this godly man was Job
Then the devil came a callin', he was knocking at Job's front door
"Your days of peace and happiness are gone forevermore."
So the devil got right in there and turned things upside down
He made Job's life one long nightmare, with trouble all around
First he lost his cattle, the Sabeans made a violent raid.
Next his sheep and camels, were hit by the Chaldean brigade
Then he struck his children, as they sat to eat a meal
A big wind came and smote the house Job's trials were unreal.
So keep praying Job, keep waiting Job,
God's gonna fix it someday
Keep your courage strong, it won't be long
God's gonna fix it someday
The Bible says that in this life
There's bound to be some toil and strife
Have faith to see through this world's night
‘Cause God's gonna fix it someday
Then God began to bless old Job with sons and daughters and more
He ended up with twice as much as he ever had before
As he ever had before
Keep praying Job, keep waiting Job
God's gonna fix it someday
Keep your courage strong, it won't be long
God's gonna fix it someday
The Bible says that in this life
There's bound to be some toil and strife
Have faith to see through this world's night
‘Cause God's gonna fix it someday
God’s gonna fix it someday

Give Him Glory
Give Him glory, give Him glory and acclaim
Give Him glory, His great majesty proclaim
To the ends of all the earth
To the mountains and the seas
To the stars that shine so far away
Give Him glory, give Him glory
Give Him glory, give Him glory
Give Him glory, glory, give glory to the Lord
For He is the Lamp that lights our way
He is the Lamb, His life He gave
He is the Shepherd, He is the Door
Give glory to the Lord, the Lord
Give Him glory, high and mighty is His name
Give Him glory, forever He’s the same
Till the morning sun grows dim
Till the rivers cease to flow
Till the planets in the heavens pass away
Give Him glory, give Him glory
Give Him glory, give Him glory
Give Him glory, glory
Give glory to the Lord
Give glory to the Lord

His Chariot Is Drawing Nigh
Look up, He’s coming back soon, His chariot is drawing nigh
Look up, He’s coming back soon, look to the sky
Look up, He’s coming back soon, His chariot is drawing nigh
We know this earth is growin’ older
His chariot is drawing nigh
The hearts of men are growin’ colder
His chariot is drawing nigh
His horses praice, they’re getting eager
It won’t be long ‘til our Lord will be here, our Lord will be here
Look up, He’s coming back soon, His chariot is drawing nigh
Look up, He’s coming back soon, look to the sky
Look up, He’s coming back soon, His chariot is drawing nigh
So trim your lamps and keep them burning
His chariot is drawing nigh
Christ awaits, His heart is yearning
His chariot is drawing nigh
His horses praice, they’re getting eager
It won’t be long ‘til our Lord will be here, our Lord will be here
Look up, He’s coming back soon, His chariot is drawing nigh

I Know He Cares For Me
Whatever is His will, I’m willing to trust Him still
Whatever is His way, I’m happy there to stay
Whatever is His plan, some day I’ll understand
In eternity then I’ll see He led me by His mighty hand
When trials get me feelin’ low
When trouble’s everywhere
I go to Jesus ‘cause I know
He always hears my prayer
When I’m down and feelin’ discouraged
He’s there continually
In the night He is my light
I know He cares for me
Whenever it’s His time, that’ll be just fine
Whenever He sees fit I know that He’ll accomplish it
Whenever He sees best I know I’ll surely be blessed
In eternity then I’ll see He led me safely through the test
When trials get me feelin’ low
When trouble’s everywhere
I go to Jesus ‘cause I know
He always hears my prayer
When I’m down and feelin’ discouraged
He’s there continually
In the night He is my light
I know He cares for me
I know Jesus cares for me

Faith Is The Only Way
It's by faith that we travel
On this road below
Trusting He'll unravel
The things that we don't know
Faith makes the diff'rence
Ev'ry single day
Yes faith is the only way
Don't be surprised if trials find your door
Jesus never promised cloudless skies
Just pray that He'll increase your faith some more
For faith grows by constant exercise
Faith chases worries, doubts and fears away
Faith's spade will bury your troubles when you pray
Faith sees the sunshine when the skies are gray
Yes faith is the only way
Don't be surprised if trials find your door
Jesus never promised cloudless skies
Just pray that He'll increase your faith some more
For faith grows by constant exercise
Faith conquers trials, while others are cast down
Faith wears a smile, while others wear a frown
Faith sings His praises, daily come what may
Yes faith is the only way
Yes faith is the only way
Yes faith is the only way

Depths Of The Sea
Micah 7:19
Jesus has taken my sins away
Bestowing His mercy on me
He buried all of my guilt that day
Down in the depths of the sea
Down in the depths of the deep blue sea
Is where He buried my sin
Down in the depths of the deep blue sea
Oh what peace within
There on the cross He took my blame
Now I am joyful and free
He buried all of my sinful shame
Down in the depths of the sea
Down in the depths of the deep blue sea
Is where He buried my sin
Down in the depths of the deep blue sea
Oh what peace within
Oh what a wonderful gift He gave
There at Calvary
He sent my sins to a watery grave
Down in the depths of the sea
Down in the depths of the deep blue sea
Is where He buried my sin
Down in the depths of the deep blue sea
Oh what peace within
Down in the depths of the deep blue sea
Oh what peace within Oh what peace within

Did You Know?
Did you know that Jesus loves you
And came to earth because you
Were lost, like a lamb from the fold?
He died upon a cruel tree
Crucified on Calvary
And took our broken lives and made them whole
Did you know that Jesus came here
And was born to be your Savior
And wants to hold you in His arms of love?
Did you know that He’s returning?
Did you know His heart is yearning
To take us to His home above?
Did you know that Jesus sought us?
With His blood the Savior bought us
And wrote our names in Heaven’s Book of Life
Though we’re weak and often fall
Jesus’ blood will cover all
Our sins, by His grace we’re justified
Did you know that Jesus came here
And was born to be your Savior
And wants to hold you in His arms of love?
Did you know that He’s returning?
Did you know His heart is yearning
To take us to His home above
To take us to His home above
To take us to His home above?

What Did It Cost?
What did it cost our Savior to give us eternal life?
What did it cost our Savior to give us peace and light?
What did it cost our Savior to take our dreadful curse?
What did it cost our Savior to take what we deserved?
It cost ev’rything, ev’rything, Heaven was emptied that day
It cost ev’rything, ev’rything to save us from sin’s dark grave
What did it cost our Savior to come to this world below?
What did it cost our Savior to come and stoop so low?
What did it cost our Savior? A manger in Bethlehem knows
A seed must die and be buried before the flower grows
It cost ev’rything, ev’rything, Heaven was emptied that day
It cost ev’rything, ev’rything to save us from sin’s dark grave

Jesus Is Coming Again
When the Lord comes with His reward
When the shadows flee
We will go to the city of gold
And live eternally
When the King descends we’ll sing
The anthem of the saved
We will rise in bightened skies
On resurrection day
He’s coming, He’s coming, Jesus is coming again
Get ready He’ll come once more
Get ready He’s at the door
Jesus is coming again
When the Lord comes with His reward
When the shadows flee
We will go to the city of gold

We’ll live eternally

City With Foundations
This world's things can never bring true happiness I've found
For ev'ry thing in this life passes on.
How better far to seek that starry crown
And live for that eternal dawn
So keep your eyes on the city with foundations
Whose Builder and Maker is God
We are heirs of His salvation
And soon we'll walk where angels' feet have trod
This world's goods have never stood the test of lasting joy
How soon their pleasures fade and pass away
Of greater worth than all the earthly toys
Will be the prize on that eternal day
So keep your eyes on the city with foundations
Whose Builder and Maker is God
For we are heirs of His salvation
And soon we'll walk where angels' feet have trod
And soon we'll walk where angels' feet have trod

Castles In Sand
Matthew 6:19-21; John 6:27
Seek not wealth that isn’t real
Where moths corrupt and thieves steal
Place your treasures up above
In heaven’s bank of Jesus’ love
Labor not for earthly bread
Seek eternal wealth instead
Set your eyes on Canaan land
Not on castles made of sand
For treasures here are castles in sand
They will not last, they cannot stand
In the final judgment day
When all things earthly will be swept away
Do not live for worldly fame
Live instead to praise His name
In His time He’ll honor you
If you’re faithful and true
Labor not for earthly bread
Seek eternal wealth instead
Set your eyes on Canaanland
Not on castles made of sand
For treasures here are castles in sand
They will not last, they cannot stand
In the final judgment day
When all things earthly will be swept away
For treasures here are castles in sand
They will not last, they cannot stand

Come, Let Us Reason Together
Isaiah 1:18
Come let us reason together
There is something I want you to know
Though your sins are as scarlet
They shall be whiter than snow
Come let us reason together
Come let’s be friends again
I will heal your heartache
I’ll wash away your sin
Come let us talk of tomorrow
Let’s forget all the things of the past
I’ll replace all your sorrow
With a joy that is more than you asked
Come let us talk of the future
There is so much to look forward to
Yesterday’s sins are forgiven
Come let’s start anew
Yesterday’s sins are forgiven
Come let’s start anew
