Everybody wants to let go
But somebody's gotta to hold on
The whole world's going crazy
But somebody's gottta stay strong
It don't look good for right now
But now ain't forever
Everybody wants to let go
But somebody's gotta to hold on

Verse 1
Somebody said you don't know what I've been through
Your young and life is simple
I've lived 4 years with a man that don't love me
And my kids are acting crazy
And you don't that my heart's been broken
Even though I'm acting fine
You don't know that good times aint't been around my way in a while
But I told her


Chorus

Verse 2
Somebody loss there mother
Somebody loss there father
Somebody has no home
And the world is falling on them
But gotta tell you something
You gotta go through something
If you wanna be something you
Cause can't get it for nothing

Bridge
Hold On (x 7)

Chorus

VERSE 1
I can remember my mother told me
Don't let no one speak for me
When it comes down to His blessings
No one can give Him praise for me but me
CHANNEL
Just trust God
He'll always come through for you
Yes He will (I know, I know that)
I believe, cause my eyes have seen what
Miracles He can do, mountains that He can move
All things are possible through Him
I'm tellin you!

CHORUS
You don't know
The blessings that He's given me, you don't know
Like I know
Even if I had a thousand tongues, I'd need more
You should know
What He's done for me, He can do for you


You can tell it, let me tell you
What the Lord has done for me!

CHORUS 2
Now let me tell you 'bout what He did for my mother
And at the same time took a load off me
Just when the doctor said that is was over
My God He stepped right in and gave her back to me

BRIDGE
He's delviered me
Out of hopeless situations (situations)
And the devil used (used to try to break me)
(But here I stand as) A living testimony
All those who's trustin' Him
Put all your faith in Him
They will never be
Defeated or cheated out of the victory!

Verse

Stormy nights have passed away still I feel the hand of the enemy
And he's trying to get me down but I won't be bound the sins of this world is ponderin me
And he's been on my track yes I know this is a fact and please do believe that I'm ready to get back
And I know you felt the same way too anad I know you're tired of going through so let's go to war

Chorus

Are you ready? Lets go we gotta get ready to tear his kingdom down
Lets be a threat lets just step down we can do anything through Christ that strengthens us
Lets go don't fuss (so lets fight) S lets fight the prince of the air cause Lord knows he don't belong here
It's not much that we can bear
The war is on; the war is on- The devil is a liar so lets rebuke him
The war is on; the war is on- He's been having us down too long
The war is on; the war is on- I can do anything through Christ that strengthens me
The war is on; the war is on- The Lord is my shepard, I will not fear

Verse

Through his grace we have lived and with His word in our hearts we are soliders
And if you never knew, know that I told ya and by His stripes we are healed
So lets fight the enemy and close the deal no matter how you feel
It's time for the truth to be revealed
God has given us the shield of faith and a *** plate of righteousness

Chorus

(Same as top)

That's It!!

Chorus:
He's the sweetest thing that i'll ever know
Sweeter than a honey on a honey comb
Sweeter than the day or love jones
Instead of anything weak he made me strong

Verse: he is a friend with love that is almost unheard of (love from up above)
He is someone that is with me when i feel all alone
He is the sweetest thing (that is ever shown)
He is the sweetest thing (when i think of him, my mind is blown)
He is the sweetest thing (he is the best friend that i ever known)
He is the sweetest thing (when i think of him he gives me a love song)

Chorus:

Verse: he is a man in my life and he always makes things right (yea we'd like to have it)
During my struggles and my troubles it seems like i always fear (now i know he's near)
He is the sweetest thing (he gives me peace in the midnight hour)
He is the sweetest thing (when i'm down, he lifts me higher)
He is the sweetest thing (with his love, there ain't no shame in my game naw)
He is the sweetest thing (the money or the fortuane don't matter at all)

Chorus 2x:
Ad libs:

Vamp: sweeter than the clowy skies, never knew and don't know why
He rescued me from a sinful soul and made me whole, made my life complete from the love you gave.
Repeat 5x: can't find nothin' better no, no there's nothing better

All I am is a nobody
Telling somebody about you
What you've done for me
And how I'm grateful,
That you're faithful and true
And you are protection
And direction for me
You purchased all my liberty
Chorus:

All I am, a heart for you
All I am, available
All I am, desperate for you
All I am, in love with you

Verse 2:
That's why I sing, and raise my hands
You're the king of all I am
And I pray that you would accept my worship
Cause I only live and breathe to praise you

Chorus:

All I am, a heart for you
All I am, available
All I am, desperate for you
All I am, in love with you

All I am

Verse I:

Falling in a dark hole that never ends
Because I lost a friend
Missing you is like a road that never seems
To get you to your destination
B-Sec:

I've been looking but I can't find you
Where did you go ? What was my mistake
I've been trying retrace my steps
To get back to you for my life's sake

Chorus:

It's been so long since I heard from you
So long ? what did I do
It's been so long since I felt your touch
So long ? you availeth much

Verse II:

If you drop a needle in a haystack
Is it really worth trying to find
Picking through each straw because I never thought
I would be so lost without you

Bridge:

Everyday I long for a chance to be with you again
For with failing I cry that I'm sorry for pushing you away
I would do anything to rekindle our being
I'm lost without your presence
It's been so long ? I'm wondering will I feel you again

Verse I:

With outstretched hands
And with a sincere heart
I come to You with thanks
And worship for who You are

B-Section:
It's of Your mercies we are not consumed
(It's Your unmerited favor)
And Your compassions fail us not
(For they are new every morning) Great is Thy faithfulness

Chorus:

Lord please hear these lips of worship
As we offer praise
Holy Holy Holy oh God of glory


Verse 2:

With words never spoken
And melodies of songs never heard
With showers of anointing
And blessing we don't deserve

Vamp:

It belongs to You
I owe to You my everything
My gratitude
And thanks to You for saving me

(Leader)
It's the way I came up all through the week every nite was a church nite
If you want to come around pack yo bags, cuz you must go there
C-soooooooou
And it ain't no shame its part of my game it's even in his name

So if you call from the mall and you want meet ya
I gotta listen to the preacher first

(Chorus)
Tuesday night is rehearsal Wednesday Bible study Thursday
I'm meeting with the band Friday Evangelistic on Sunday here we go
If you wanna go hang it might be delayed for me to get my praise on
So that I can stay strong it's all at church tonight
If you goin' to the game it might have to wait
For me to get my dance on
Might not even take long, I'm going to church tonight

(Leader)
Even when I'm at school its running through my head that I'm so grateful
The reason that I'm so happy

Wanna live my dream and have a bunch of things tell ya what it means to me

I'm gonna praise him every chance that I get

(Chorus)

C-all I do is lay it loose when I thank you
And when they hatin' on me cuz' I got it goin' on
C-It's what you can't really get at home
Nobody has to make dance or make me clap my hands
C- yea yea yea
Nobody has to make me pray or make me give him praise
C- all at church tonight

(Freestyle) I hated it cause mama hit me at the wrong time telling me i had a short time to get my hind parts down the stairs so we can get in the car which was parked in the driveway headedd for the highway i aint gotta sleep cause the people made unbelieveable sounds the keyboards under the sweet organ where the deacons and greeters were meeting and greeting at the door with arms open wide saying give me some more its all at the church.

(Chorus sings)
If you wanna go hang it might be delayed for me to get my praise on so that I can stay strong it's all at church tonight

C- yea yea yea
Nobody has to make me pray or make me give him praise
C- at church tonight
Repeat go into fade

Verse I:
Show me how to be more like you
Show me how to be stronger in a world so cruel
Show me how to be more faithful in what I don't know
And how to trust and how to lean on you Lord
You said
B-Setion:
If I be lifted up from the earth
I will draw all men unto me

Chorus:
Can I get closer to You
Can I get closer and personal too
I need to know how to live more in the likeness of You
Can I get closer ? Closer to you Lord

Verse 2:
Show me how to think more like I should
Show me how to choose between what's bad and good
Show me how to be more prayerful and available
So I can hear you when you talk to me Lord

Vamp:
Draw me nearer to you Jesus
You're my sword and shield
Draw me closer than a brother
You are all I need

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me,
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,
Darkness be over me, my rest a stone.
Yet in my dreams I'd be
Nearer, my God to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

There let the way appear, steps unto heav'n;
All that Thou sendest me, in mercy given;
Angels to beckon me
Nearer, my God, to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

Then, with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise,

Out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise;
So by my woes to be
Nearer, my God, to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I'll fly,
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

There in my Father's home, safe and at rest,
There in my Savior's love, perfectly blest;
Age after age to be,
Nearer my God to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

Whatever I say I shall receive I will believe
Great things today I will declare I will decree
God made me a promise, He's faithful to perform it
And there will be will be a performance

Today I will release my faith faith to believe
For there is a promise waiting for me
And there will be will be a performance

There shall be a performance
There shall be a performance
There shall be a performance
There shall be a performance
