He speaks and the sound of His voice Is so sweet that the birds hush their singing And the melody that He gave to me Within my heart is ringing -The bold sends chills up my spine every time One of my favorite lines too.
I have been young, but I'm older now And there has been beauty, these eyes have seen It was in the night, through the storms of my life Oh that's when God proved his love to me But the anchor holds, Though the ship's been battered The anchor holds, though the Sails are torn I have fallen on my knees, as I faced the raging seas The anchor holds, in spite of the storm.
I'm in an old hymn mood today: I was standing by the banks of a river Looking out over lifes troubled seas When I saw an old ship that was sailing Is that the old ship of Zion I see It's hull was bent and battered From the storms of life I could see Waves were rough but that old ship kept sailing Is that the old ship of Zion I see At the stern of the ship was the captain I could hear as he called out my name Get on board It's the old ship of Zion It will never pass this way again As I step on board I'll be leaving All my troubles and trials behind I'll be safe with Jesus the captain Sailing out on the old ship of Zion
I have seen my last tomorrow, Iam holding my last breath, Goodbye, sweet world of sorrow, My new life, begins with death. I am standing on the mountain, I can hear the angels songs, I am reaching over Jordon, Take my hand, Lord lead me home. All my burdens, are behind me, I have prayed, my final pray, Don't you cry, over my body, Cause that ain't me, lying there. No, I am standing on the mountain, I can hear the angels songs, I am reaching over Jordon, Take my hand, Lord lead me home. I am standing (Lord, I am standing) on the mountain ( on the mountain ), I can hear ( I can hear the angels songs ) the angels songs, I am reaching over Jordon, ( over Jordon ) Take my hand, Lord lead me home. Take my hand, Lord lead me home. More lyrics: http://www.lyricsmania.com/lead_me_home_lyrics_jamey_johnson.html All about Jamey Johnson: http://www.musictory.com/music/Jamey+Johnson
She stepped off of the bus Out into the city streets Just a small town girl With her whole life packed In a suitcase by her feet
Everything's changing around me And I want to change too It's one thing I know It ain't cool being no fool I feel different today I don't know what else to say But I'mma get my shit together It's now or never
Now there's trouble busin' in from outta state And the D.A. can't get no relief Gonna be a rumble on the promenade And the gamblin' commissioner's hangin' on by the skin of his teeth
