"What Manner Of Man Is This"
(Chorus)
What manner of a man is this
Who died upon a tree
What matter of a man is this
Who set the captives free
You know, he walk-walketh on the water
And he calmed the raging sea
What manner of a man is this
Who gave His life for me
The prophet called him Emmanuel
The prophet called him a stone
The angels called him Jesus
Even before he was born
With the world upon his shoulder
He was walking all alone
He was seen comeing from Boz'rah
With his dyin' garments on
(chorus)
You know, Ezekiel saw him coming
As a wheel in the middle of a wheel
And John talked about him
In the book of the seven seals
Paul gave a description
Brighter than the sun
If you don't know his name
You better run
(chorus)
He was born in a manger
He was cradled in a stall
His cross was there on Calvary
Where he died for all
They laid him in Joseph's tomb
So the scripture said
The angels rolled away the stone
Behold, the soldiers fled
(chorus)
"In The Summer of His Years"
A young man rode with his head held
high
Under the Texas sun
And no one guessed that a man so blessed
Would perish by the gun
Lord, would perish by the gun
A shot rang out like a Southern shout
And Heaven held it's breath
For the dream of the multitude of
men
Rode with him to his death
Lord, rode with him to his death
Yes, the heart of the world weighed
heavy
With the helplessness of tears
For the man cut down in a Texas town
In the summer of his years
In the summer of his years
"Altar of Peace"
Everyone should pray for an altar
of peace
Don't let nothing stand in your way
Pray that love and joy in this world
will never cease
And the good Lord will guide you everyday
I pray every night for an altar of
peace
Candles glow so bright with every
prayer
And I feel heaven near and the angel
release
Messages from the Lord, way up there
When you kneel to pray for an altar
of peace
Ask the world to join you and pray
Then you'll feel God's love
And your heart will increase
And His blessing, you know, is everywhere
