1. Homesick
Lord, my heart is broken, I’m pierced inside
I long to be with You and lay this form aside
How long will they prosper and the righteous see rain?
How long ’till You do away with pain?
All that I asked for, all that I needed
Even when words fail, You intercede
It’s not that I think it’s a waste of my time,
I know silence is golden, but honesty shines through
The blatant misrepresentations I’ve made in
attempting to love all that You created
I’ve run the race and I’ve heard the call
to be perfectly honest, I’m sick of it all
Lord I’m homesick…come Lord, and come quickly.
2. Dealin’ With The Devil
I trusted Jesus like the Bible said
I know He’ll greet me at my dying bed
The Lord knows I ain’t no angel
The devil knows where to find me at night
The Lord knows all my weakness
The devil knows how to put up a fight
ain’t no use in crying, ain’t no need to beg
I’ll be dealing with the devil, until my dying bed
The Lord said “it’s free and easy”
The devil said “well that ain’t right”
The Lord said “come and follow”
The devil whispered “I’ll see you tonight”
3. Desire
I’m a codependent, non-repentant, convoluted mess
Non-committed bystander is the title I like best
every kind of excuse has run through my brain
I’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Tick-tock, that thieving clock keeps stealing my time
another excuse has popped in my mind
this job’s best suited for a much better man
but in the meantime I’ll do what I can
Now, yeah now, You’re my desire
You’ve set me on fire
Now, yeah now, Lord You’re my desire
You touched me Lord, set me on fire
Gotta make hay while the sun’s in the sky
this old world just keeps passing me by
40 years in the shop may build your 401
but what will you have to show when it’s all said and done?
4. Eye On The Prize
I ain’t the same man that I used to be
these old bones get to achin’, don’t let it bother me
ain’t spendin’ no more time on used-to-be’s
why carry your chains after you’ve been set free?
Don’t have the imagination for new alibis
I made a change of direction, got my eye on the prize
I’m moving on with Jesus Christ
He’s changing up my heart, gave me a new life
His word it guards me and gives me strength
Lord I’ll praise You, for all my days…
5. Cryin’ Shame
I don’t know why I cry at night
Tonight I’ll be crying in the pail moon light
I don’t know why I make the same mistakes
but I know I make them nearly every day
Oh, Lord, it’s a crying shame.
I don’t know why I do the things that I do,
but I know you love me better than I love you
I don’t know why I still don’t know why
guess I’ll be asking until the day I die
I don’t know why I hurt you so bad
when you’re the best thing that I ever had
I don’t know why I cry at night
tonight I’ll be crying in the pail moon light.
6. Another Day
I rolled out of bed, Lord, to see the sun come up
rubbed off the sleep, Lord, I grabbed my favorite cup
the coffee doesn’t drive away all the bills I gotta pay
but the Lord blessed me with another day.
Your word oh Lord will give me strength
through You I know I can do all things
the problems keep piling on, they just won’t go away
but the Lord blessed me with another day.
The war rages on as the day comes to an end
all those mistakes, but I know You’re still my friend
there’s so much work left to do, I don’t know what to say
Please Lord, bless me with another day.
I’m a sinner oh Lord as I kneel down and pray
I’ve got nothing but future, I’m done with yesterday
Blessed be the Father, the Spirit and the Son,
I’m gonna keep working until He comes
7. Stand Before The Lord
Check your treasure, where does it lie?
Where will it be when you up and die?
You’ll have to stand before the Lord
There’ll be no help there to be found,
go on and lay your burden down.
The Lord don’t care about your bread
none of the opinions running through your head
Son I can’t stand there for you
go on and do what you’ve got to do
8. Prodigal Blues
Ain’t never been happy with the way things be
ain’t never been happy with the way things be
I’ve taken what you’ve given, but I’ve been living for me
Been winin’ and dinin’, living the good life
been winin’ and dinin’, living the good life
cause I’ve taken what you’ve given, but I’ve been living for me
love ain’t worth nothing unless you get it for free
cause I’ve taken what you’ve given, and I’ve been living for me
and that’s a shame…
Ain’t had nothin’ but bad news and heartache since the day I left home
ain’t had nothin’ but bad news and heartache since the day I left home
lately I’ve been thinking that something just ain’t right
I spent my last dollar three nights ago
been down in the pigpen reaping what I’ve sown
lately I’ve been thinking that something just ain’t right
money ain’t worth nothin’, I’d rather be poor and be right
so I’ve made up my mind, I’m heading for home tonight
9. Revival
Everywhere I look, people’s down
ain’t enough love to go around
brothers and sisters, full of pain
we need revival in Jesus’ name
sing with me, children of the king
let our praises rise and let them ring
up to the heavens, above the clouds
Jesus rain revival down
where’s that new life in how we live?
where’s the sacrifice when we give?
lukewarm or lazy, it’s all the same
we need revival in Jesus’ name
