God Gave Rock and Roll to You
Words and music by Russ Ballard
You can learn to dance or you can be a square You can let the music take you anywhere But where will you be when the music's gone You can learn to sing, you can play guitar You can learn to rock, you can be a star But where will you be when the music's gone God gave rock and roll to you Gave rock and roll to you Put it in the soul of everyone If you love the sound then don't forget the source You can turn around, you can change your course 'Cause it's never too late to change your mind You can love the rock and let Him free your soul Or you can let the old man take his toll It's never too late to change your mind © 1973 Mainspring Music (ASCAP) |

Ask Him In
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Now that you've heard the music Where do you go from here You see music only takes you to the place Where you're ready to hear We could sing and tell you we love you And you could say it wasn't true But how can you say that about a man Who died for you Jesus is holding out His love to you But He made it so that you have to choose How can you walk away empty again When you know that you've got nothing to lose Ask Him in You could probably think of a reason To wait until another day But the Spirit is speaking, telling you Today is the day Jesus gave His life as a ransom Was crucified and laid in a grave Be He rose again and made a new way For man to be saved © 1977 Word Music, Inc. / Petrafied Music (ASCAP) |

Sally
Words and music by Greg Hough
You remember Sally, used to be so happy
Walkin' down that street with a smile upon her face
Never had a worry, she never had a care
And when she came to see me she would brighten up my face
Sally was that kind of girl, sure would like to know
And everywhere that Sally went the Lamb was sure to go
Somebody said they saw her on the other side of town
Said she was smokin' weed and drinkin', probably foolin' 'round
That's too bad about Sally because she was so nice
The next time I see that girl, I'll give her my advice
Why would she want to run away from God and all His love
And go back in that world and live so hard and rough
You know that I don't feel too bad, Sally moved away
'Cause every time I'd look at her she set my mind astray
Now Sally was that kind of girl, I wish that she was mine
Just to know that she was there, even that was fine
There's just one thing that I don't understand
And that's the part that's rough
Why would she want to run away from God and all His love

Without You I Would Surely Die
Words and music by Greg Hough
Sometimes I feel like I'm all mixed up inside
Sometimes I feel like I wanna go run and hide
But then You put Your arms around me
And I feel Your sweet love surround me
Then I know just where I'm going
I tell You sincerely You're the sweetest person I've ever known
And I love You dearly You know I'd never, never let You go
'Cause when You put Your arms around me
And I feel Your sweet love surround me
Then I know just where I'm going
You keep my head on my shoulders
I'm well adjusted inside
You are my love, You are my only life
Without You I would surely die
And there is no other that I love as much as I love You
I wish that my brother could love You just as much as I do
'Cause when You put Your arms around me
And I feel Your sweet love surround me
Then I know just where I'm going
There's no more doubt, there's no more knowing

Come and Join Us
Words and music by Bob Hartman
We are like stones built together in a wall Made up of whosoever the Master Builder calls We are not worthy but together we are strong Built on the Rock of Ages the wall is almost done Come and join us in the sunlight You’ve been sitting in the shade too long Come and give us a chance to sing you a song Come and join us in the sunlight If you would reach you could touch the sky Come and drink from the well that will never run dry We are like strangers and pilgrims in this world Lifting the blood stained banner our flag has been unfurled We have a homeland no eyes have ever seen But those who've gone before us whose souls have been redeemed We are like children held in the Father's hand Growing into the image of Christ the Son of Man We are not perfect but changing every day Through trials and tribulation we'll find the perfect way © 1977 Word Music, Inc. / Petrafied Music (ASCAP) |

Where Can I Go
Words and music by Bob Hartman
I could take a plane to New York City
I could hitchhike all the way to L.A.
I could follow the sunrise tomorrow
But be as close to You as today
I’m beginning to see what You mean to me
I just can't get away from Your love
Where can I go without Your love there to haunt me
I do believe You're playin' to win
I can't understand what makes You really want me
But I'm feelin' like it's time to give in
I could climb the golden stairway to heaven
I could catch the crowded highway to hell
If I could find a place nobody has ever been
I bet You'd probably be there as well
I’m beginning to feel that Your love is real
I don't know why I've waited so long
Darkness is the same as the light to You
Daytime is the same as the night
When You put Your chains of love around my soul
I know it won’t be long before I let You take control
I could take a submarine to Atlantis
I could take a flying saucer to Mars
I could ride on the Milky Way someday
But You've already numbered the stars
I’m beginning to hear Your voice is so near
Tellin' me You love me again

Holy Ghost Power
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Everybody talking about power
Power to the people they say
Everybody tryin' to get more power
They’re goin' in circles today
I’m sick of this jive, gonna hop in my rod
Gonna motivate clear across town
Gonna go to church, gonna end my search
Gonna fill my soul with power
Holy Ghost power gonna fill you today
Holy Ghost power gonna take you away
Holy Ghost power gonna fill you within
Holy Ghost power gonna save you from sin
Don't give me no jive, you ain’t even alive
Till you get your heart right with God
Better ask Him in and forget your sin
Let Him fill your soul with power

Woman Don't You Know
Words and music by Greg Hough & Bob Hartman
I know that you been scheming
Trying to run my head around
But I know all about you girl
You've been lost – but I've been found
Woman don't you know
You ain't gonna pull me down
I told you 'bout a new way
Of livin' life and having fun
I told you 'bout the Spirit
And walking in the light of the Son
Woman don't you know
I ain't gonna come undone
I told you about salvation
But you don't seem to want no part
You've been trying to take me
You've been trying to steal my heart
Woman don't you know
I ain't gonna have no part
