"He's The One"

There are those

Who are willing to pay the dear price

That they might have eternal life

That was given by the Father

And His dear son

Jesus, He's the one

Well, He's the one

When trials block my way, oh yes

I can call on Jesus any time, time of the day

I can fall down on my knees and pray

Yes, I can let God, child, just have His way

Oh, Jesus, my sweet Jesus

He's the one

"I'm Gonna Trust In The Lord"

I'm gonna trust in the Lord

I'm gonna trust in the Lord until I die

I'm gonna trust in the Lord

I'm gonna love everybody

I'm gonna love everybody until I die

I'm gonna love everybody

I'm gonna love everybody

I'm gonna love everybody until I die

I'm gonna sing God's praises

I'm gonna sing God's praises

I'm gonna sing God's praises until I die

I'm gonna sing God's praises

I'm gonna sing God's praises

I'm gonna sing God's praises until I die

"I See God"

I see God in every scented rose

I see God in everything that grows

I see God in gentle falling rain

And the snow that falls up on the plain

I see God sunrise everyday

And the smiling children as they play

High above like the birds up on the wing

Oh, I see God- God is everything

I see God- starlight evening skies

In the love that fills a mother's eyes

Standing by to help when trouble falls

When I see God, I know that God is all

"Old Time Religion"

(chorus)

Gimme that ol' time religion

Good religion that it used to be

That old time religion

Hallelujah, good enough for me

It was good for my ol' mother

It was good for my ol' mother

It was good for my ol' mother

Hallelujah, good enough for me

(chorus)

It was good for Paul and Silas

It was good for Paul and Silas

It was good for Paul and Silas

Hallelujah, good enough for me

It was good for the Hebrew children

It was good for the Hebrew children

It was good for the Hebrew children

Hallelujah, good enough for me

(chorus)

It'll save you when you're dying

It'll save you when you're dying
It'll save you when you're dying

Hallelujah, good enough for me

(chorus)

"Roll, Jordan, Roll"

Roll, Jordan, roll

Roll, Jordan, roll

I want to get to Heaven when I die

To see ol' Jordan roll

(rpt)

Brother, you oughta been there

Oh, yes, Lord

A-sitting in the kingdom

To hear ol' Jordan roll

(chorus)

Oh, sister you oughta been there

Oh, yes, Lord

A- sitting in the kingdom

To hear ol' Jordan roll

(chorus)

Oh, preacher, you oughta been there

Oh, yes, Lord

A- sitting in the kingdom

To hear ol' Jordan roll

(chorus)

"It Is Well With My Soul"

When peace like a river

Attendeth my way

When sorrows like sea billows roll

Whatever my lot, thou has taught me to say

It is well, it is well with my soul

It is well with my soul

It is well, it is well with my soul

Tho' satan should buffet

And trials should come

Let His blessed assurance control

That Christ has regarded

My helpless estate

It is well, it is well with my soul

It is well with my soul

It is well, it is well with my soul

Mahalia Jackson

March On Washington, 1963

"The Man Beyond The Clouds"

There's a man waiting way beyond the clouds

He's waiting there for you and for me

There's a man waiting way beyond the clouds

He's waiting there to set our spirits free

Oh, why don't you come

And trust this friend of mine

He's proven himself

To me from time to time

Oh, there's a man waiting way beyond the clouds

He's waiting there for you and for me

(Mahalia hums)

He's proven himself

To me from time to time

Oh, there's a man waiting way beyond the cloud

He's waiting there for you and for me

"Calvary"

Calvary, Calvary

Calvary, Calvary

Calvary, Calvary

Surely, He died on Calvary

Can you hear Him calling his father

Can you hear Him calling his father

Can you hear Him calling his father

Surely, oh, surely

Surely, oh surely

He died on Calvary

"Rusty Old Halo"

(chorus)

Rusty old halo

Skinny white cloud

Some second hand wings full of patches

Rusty old halo

Skinny white cloud

A robe that's so wooly, it scratches

I know a man, rich as a king

Still he just won't give his neighbor a thing

His day will come, one day I bet

He'll get to Heaven and here's what he'll get

(chorus)

While you're on earth, shine like a star

Brighten the corner where ever you are

Doing the best thing you can do

That way you're sure they will never hand you

(Chorus)

"Power In The Blood"

There is power, power

Wondrous working power

In the blood of the lamb

Oh, there is power, power

Wondrous working power

In the precious blood of the lamb

(rpt)

Would you be free from your burdens of sin

There is power in the blood, power in the blood

Would you o'er evil, a victory to win

There is wondrous working power in the blood

(chorus)

Would you do service for Jesus, your King

There is power in the blood, power in the blood

Would you live daily- praise His holy name

There is wondrous working power in the blood

(chorus)

"All Is Well"

Sun down, night fall

And day is done

And all is well, all is well

All is well

Moon up high, stars are bright

In the sky

And all is well, all is well

All is well

Oh, see the day is done

The sun is rising over the hill

Always know that sleep is still(?)

For there's a new day breaking through

For you

And all is well, all is well

All is well

Always know that sleep is still(?)

For there's a new day breaking through

For you

And all is well, all is well

All is well

"This Is My Faith"

This is my faith to live my life

With only love forever in my heart

And through my faith

I have found that life is one eternal spring

Forever blossoming

My faith is endless

Now, I can see

Who made the road

Who lights the stars like candles out in space

For I have faith

When I see the Heavens painted

As a rainbow is created

And behold the perfect work of God

And in my heart, there's beauty and grace

For this is my faith

My faith
