The Man From Way Out

Twenty hundred years ago
In a land across the sea
From His home beyond the heavens
Came the Man from way out

Only few were there to meet Him
When He came upon the sea
Everybody was expecting
Some different kind of king

Well, He grew up in a small town
Where the people weren’t so good
They did not appreciate Him
Like a home town really should

So He left His home and mother
Took a few men by His side
And He talked about a Kingdom
Where real love and peace abide

See Him giving God’s forgiveness
To a people tossed about
They all crowded around and listened
To the Man from way out

Though His love is all sufficient
To supply the deepest need
Many foolishly replaced Him
With their own religious creed

So they took Him to a mountain
Raised Him to the sky above
But the cross will stand forever
As a monument to love

Listen to His invitation
Now’s the time to try Him out
Let God fill your empty life now
With the Man from way out

Yes, God Is Real

There are some things that I may not know
There are some places I cannot go
But I am sure of this one thing
My God is real for I can feel Him in my heart

Yes, God is real, real in my soul
My God is real for He has washed and made me whole
And His love for me is like pure gold
My God is real for I can feel Him in my soul

I cannot tell just how you felt
When Jesus washed your sins away
But since that day and since that hour
My God has been real for I can feel His holy power

Yes, God is real, real in my soul
My God is real for He has washed and made me whole
And His love for me is like pure gold
Yes, my God is real for I can feel Him in my soul

Yes, God is real for I can feel Him in my soul

Peace

How can you say there’s peace when wars rage around?
How can you be happy when people put you down?
We know nowhere we’re going but we keep moving on
In this world we never slow down

Peace, peace, wonderful peace
Comes from the Lord in Heaven
Peace, peace, you can have this peace
Just reach out and take His hand

People have tried to substitute things for peace
But nothing has ever been found
The only way to happiness is to have this peace
And you find it only through God

Peace, peace, wonderful peace
Comes from the Lord in Heaven
Peace, peace, you can have this peace
Just reach out and take His hand

Side By Side

Side by side we stand awaiting God’s command
Worshiping our saving King
Living by His grace and moving on in faith
Jesus Himself will see us through

Meet me in heaven, we’ll join hands together
Meet me by the Savior’s side
I’ll meet you in heaven, we’ll sing songs together
Brothers and sisters, I’ll be there
Praise the Lord we all will be there

Soldiers all are we to go where Jesus leads
We’ll fight in faith and we will overcome
Heaven is our goal and saving every soul
Pray that we all will be there

Meet me in heaven, we’ll join hands together
Meet me by the Savior’s side
I’ll meet you in heaven, we’ll sing songs together
Brothers and sisters, I’ll be there
Praise the Lord we all will be there

Side by side we all will be singing praise the Lord
Praise the Lord we all will be there

Come To Me

“Come, come to me
Rest your body
Rest your feet
And come, come to me
Listen everybody, come right now to me
Listen everybody, come and be free”

Through the war and the hate that’s troubled us since our birth
Comes a voice from the clouds that’s heard through the whole earth
Through a thousand speakers in a thousand tongues
Everybody’s heard but few have found
The Man they’ve all been shouting about
And still the Man cries out:

“Come, come to me
Rest your body
Rest your feet
And come, come to me
Listen everybody, come right now to me
Listen everybody, come and be free”

We talk about love and the freedom of our mind
But we never outrace this mad circle of time
We come with nothing and that’s how we leave
The answer is there but nobody sees
The sciences in the glass are running out
And still the Man cries out:

“Come, come to me
Rest your body
Rest your feet
And come, come to me
Listen everybody, come right now to me
Listen everybody, come and be free
Come to me and be free”
