Something Old, Something New Lyrics
SOMETHING OLD, SOMETHING NEW
Sally A. Quick / Real Quick Music / BMI
CHORUS
THERE'S SOMETHING OLD ABOUT THE LIFE I LED BEFORE I MET THE LORD
THERE'S SOMETHING NEW, HE PAID THE DEBT OF SIN THAT I COULD NOT AFFORD
THERE'S SOMETHING BORROWED, IT WAS AN EMPTY TOMB HE ROSE FROM ON THAT DAY
THERE'S SOMETHING BLUE, THE EASTERN SKY HE'LL SPLIT WHEN HE CALLS THE CHURCH AWAY.
1 ONCE I WALKED A LONELY ROAD I HAD NO JOY INSIDE
MANY YEARS I WASTED IN VANITY AND PRIDE
THEN ONE DAY I HEARD HIS VOICE, "I'M HERE TO SET YOU FREE"
I KNEW THE MOMENT I BELIEVED A WORK BEGAN IN ME.
CHORUS
THERE'S SOMETHING OLD ABOUT THE LIFE I LED BEFORE I MET THE LORD
THERE'S SOMETHING NEW, HE PAID THE DEBT OF SIN THAT I COULD NOT AFFORD
THERE'S SOMETHING BORROWED, IT WAS AN EMPTY TOMB HE ROSE FROM ON THAT DAY
THERE'S SOMETHING BLUE, THE EASTERN SKY HE'LL SPLIT WHEN HE CALLS THE CHURCH AWAY.
2 I'M A NEW CREATION SINCE HE MADE ME HIS OWN
HE GAVE ME REDEEMING LOVE LIKE I HAD NEVER KNOWN
EACH DAY DRAWS ME NEARER TO THAT HAPPY LAND
OH WHAT JOY AWAITS ME WHEN HE TAKES ME BY THE HAND.
CHORUS
THERE'S SOMETHING OLD ABOUT THE LIFE I LED BEFORE I MET THE LORD
THERE'S SOMETHING NEW, HE PAID THE DEBT OF SIN THAT I COULD NOT AFFORD
THERE'S SOMETHING BORROWED, IT WAS AN EMPTY TOMB HE ROSE FROM ON THAT DAY
THERE'S SOMETHING BLUE, THE EASTERN SKY HE'LL SPLIT WHEN HE CALLS THE CHURCH AWAY.
REPEAT CHORUS
TAG
THERE'S SOMETHING BLUE, THE EASTERN SKY HE'LL SPLIT WHEN HE CALLS THE CHURCH AWAY.

BEHOLD THE LAND
Sally A. Quick / Real Quick Music / BMI
1 DRIFTING ON LIFE'S TROUBLED SEA THE SHORE BEHIND FADES FAR FROM ME.
TRIALS SEEM TO OVERTAKE ME ON EACH HAND.
AIMLESSLY MY VESSEL'S TOSSED, NOT ESCAPING HARM OR LOSS,
NEVER KNOWING IF I'M ABLE TO WITHSTAND.
2 IN THE DISTANCE NOW APPEARS, I CAN SEE HIM THRU MY TEARS
THE ONE WHO STANDS AND WAITS UPON THE SHORE.
A HAVEN HE'S PREPARED, I'VE A LONGING TO GO THERE
WHERE I KNOW I'LL REST WITH HIM FOREVERMORE.
CHORUS
BEHOLD THE LAND, BEHOLD THE LAND,
THO TREADING STORM-TOSSED WATERS, GOD COMMANDS.
AS THE WAVES AROUND YOU ROLL, AND THE BATTLE TAKES ITS TOLL,
KNOW THAT GOD IS IN CONTROL, BEHOLD THE LAND.
REPEAT CHORUS
TAG
AS THE WAVES AROUND YOU ROLL, AND THE BATTLE TAKES ITS TOLL,
KNOW THAT GOD IS IN CONTROL, KNOW THAT GOD IS IN CONTROL,

I KNOW I'M HIS
Sally A. Quick / Real Quick Music / BMI
1 I HAVE FOUND SUCH JOY WITHIN SINCE I MET THE ONE
WHO CAME DOWN TO THIS OLE WORLD AND PROVED HE WAS GOD'S SON
HE PAID THE RANSOM FOR MY SOUL THEN HE CLEANSED AND MADE ME WHOLE
WHEN I LET HIM TAKE CONTROL I FOUND THE VICT'RY'S WON
CHORUS
I KNOW I'M HIS, HE WATCHES FROM ABOVE I KNOW I'M HIS, I'M SHELTERED IN HIS LOVE
I MAY NOT KNOW THE REASON WHY I'LL UNDERSTAND IT IN THE BYE AND BYE
TILL I REACH MY HOME ON HIGH, I'M GLAD I KNOW I'M HIS.
2 NOTHING IN THE WORLD MEANS MORE TO ME THAN GETTING TO THE PEARLY GATES
JASPER WALLS, STREETS OF GOLD, I FIND THAT I CAN HARDLY WAIT.
I'LL GET A ROBE AND A CROWN BRAND NEW!
HE'S GOT THE KIND OF LOVE I KNOW WILL CARRY ME THROUGH
SOON I'LL SAIL BEYOND THE BLUE I'M GLAD I KNOW I'M HIS!
CHORUS
I KNOW I'M HIS, HE WATCHES FROM ABOVE I KNOW I'M HIS, I'M SHELTERED IN HIS LOVE
I MAY NOT KNOW THE REASON WHY I'LL UNDERSTAND IT IN THE BYE AND BYE
TILL I REACH MY HOME ON HIGH, I'M GLAD I KNOW I'M HIS.
3 WHEN THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN AND THERE SEEMS NO WAY OUT
TAKE YOUR TROUBLES TO THE LORD HE LEAVES NO ROOM FOR DOUBT
THE YOKE IS EASY AND THE BURDEN LIGHT HE'S GONNA MAKE EV'RYTHING ALLRIGHT
JUST WALK BY FAITH AND NOT BY SIGHT YOU'LL RISE UP WITH A SHOUT!
CHORUS
I KNOW I'M HIS, HE WATCHES FROM ABOVE I KNOW I'M HIS, I'M SHELTERED IN HIS LOVE
I MAY NOT KNOW THE REASON WHY I'LL UNDERSTAND IT IN THE BYE AND BYE
TILL I REACH MY HOME ON HIGH, I'M GLAD I KNOW I'M HIS.

WALKING A NEW ROAD
Jeff Moran / Chestnut Mound Music / BMI
1 ONCE I WALKED ALONE, CARRIED AN AWFUL LOAD,
I STUMBLED ALONG A ROAD OLD SATAN HAD PAVED.
BUT WHEN JESUS SAVED MY SOUL AND MADE ALL MY BURDENS ROLL,
HE SHOWED ME A BRAND NEW ROAD - A MUCH BETTER WAY.
CHORUS -
NOW I WALK A NEW ROAD, A NEW ROAD THAT'S FULL AND FREE.
AND EACH STEP I TAKE - HE'S PROMISED TO MAKE ALONG SIDE OF ME.
THIS ROAD LEADS TO GLORY AND SOME DAY ITS BEAUTY I'LL SEE,
FOR I FOUND THE WAY AND SINCE THAT GLAD DAY
I'M WALKING A NEW ROAD.
2 NOW IF YOU ARE ALL ALONE, DON'T KNOW JUST WHERE TO GO,
SO TIRED OF THAT SAME OLD ROAD YOU WALK EVERY DAY.
THERE'S ONE I CAN RECOMMEND, WHEN YOU HAVE FOUND IT MY FRIEND,
YOU'LL SHOUT TO THE JOURNEY'S END
"PRAISE GOD FOR THIS NEW ROAD!"
CHORUS -
NOW I WALK A NEW ROAD, A NEW ROAD THAT'S FULL AND FREE.
AND EACH STEP I TAKE - HE'S PROMISED TO MAKE ALONG SIDE OF ME.
THIS ROAD LEADS TO GLORY AND SOME DAY ITS BEAUTY I'LL SEE,
FOR I FOUND THE WAY AND SINCE THAT GLAD DAY
I'M WALKING A NEW ROAD.

TOO MUCH TO GAIN TO LOSE
Dottie Rambo / Benson Publishing / ASCAP
1 TOO MANY MILES BEHIND ME
TOO MANY TRAILS ARE THROUGH
TOO MANY TEARS HELP ME REMEMBER
THERE'S TO MUCH TO GAIN TO LOSE.
CHORUS
TOO MANY SUNSETS LIE BEHIND THE MOUNTAIN
TOO MANY RIVERS MY FEET HAVE WALKED THROUGH
TOO MANY TREASURES ARE WAITING OVER YONDER
THERE'S TOO MUCH TO GAIN TO LOSE.
2 I'VE CROSSED THE HOT BURNING DESSERT
I WAS STRUGGLING THE RIGHT ROAD TO CHOOSE
BUT SOMEWHERE UP AHEAD THERE'S COOL CLEAR WATER
AND DEFEAT IS ONE WORD I'LL NEVER USE.
CHORUS
TOO MANY SUNSETS LIE BEHIND THE MOUNTAIN
TOO MANY RIVERS MY FEET HAVE WALKED THROUGH
TOO MANY TREASURES ARE WAITING OVER YONDER
THERE'S TOO MUCH TO GAIN TO LOSE.

NO MATTER WHERE THIS ROAD MAY LEAD, WALKING WITH JESUS IS WHERE I'LL BE
BEFORE I KNOW THE PROBLEM, GOD ALREADY KNOWS THE NEED
HE KNOWS HOW, HE KNOWS HOW TO TAKE GOOD CARE OF ME.
1 WALKING BY FAITH AND NOT BY SIGHT IS SOMETIMES HARD TO DO
JUST HOW LONG WILL I CARRY THIS BURDEN
BEFORE THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD COMES THRU
BUT THEN MY MIND - IT STARTS TO WONDER JUST WHERE THAT I WOULD BE
CAUSE FOR ALL THESE YEARS I'VE BEEN SERVING THE LORD
HE'S BEEN TAKING GOOD CARE OF ME.

CAUSE YOU KNOW GOD NEVER GETS TOO BUSY TOO KEEP WATCHING OVER ME.

THE UNIFORM
Sally A. Quick / Real Quick Music / BMI
1 IT HANGS THERE IN THE CLOSET SET ASIDE TO FIGHT NO MORE
THE GARMENTS OF A SOLDIER DECORATED FROM THE WAR
ONCE WORN WITH SUCH PRIDE, SHARED BY MANY WHO HAVE DIED FOR FREEDOM
BUT THE BATTLE RAGES ON, OTHERS FIGHT UNTIL IT'S WON FOR GOOD
CHORUS
THOSE WHO'VE WORN THE UNIFORM THAT STANDS FOR GOOD AND RIGHT
BRAVELY SERVED AND FOUGHT WITH ALL THEIR MIGHT
WITH GREAT SACRIFICE, THEY HAVE PAID THE PRICE TO DEFEND OUR LIBERTY
THE RED, WHITE, AND BLUE,FOR ME AND FOR YOU,
TO KEEP OUR NATION FREE.
2 CALLED TO ACTIVE SERVICE IN THE ARMY OF THE LORD
THE ARMOUR OF THE CHRISTIAN IS PUT ON TO FIGHT A WAR
EACH WEAPON NOW IN PLACE - ASSEMBLED UNDER GRACE FOR VICTR'Y
AS THE BATTLE RAGES ON WILL YOU FIGHT UNTIL IT'S WON FOR GOOD?
CHORUS
WILL YOU WEAR THE UNIFORM THAT STANDS FOR GOOD AND RIGHT?
WILL YOU SERVE THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT?
PERFECT SACRIFICE, JESUS PAID THE PRICE TO BUY OUR LIBERTY
WITH ARMOUR IN HAND WILL YOU TAKE A STAND
WITH THE RANSOMED AND THE FREE?
