"KEEP YOUR EYES ON CHRIST"
Lyrics & Music: Derek Richard, BMI 2006

Got the feelin'
Like I'm dreamin'
Ain't believing all this evil on the earth

Hear me prayin'
Ain't complainin'
About this world or my crappy old shoes

Keep Believin'
Always seeking
And you'll find the Word of Truth

Always ask in
In the name of
The one and only Jesus Christ

Chorus
Got to praise Him
Got to sing out
Got to keep your eyes on Christ

Got to praise Him
Got to sing out
Got to keep your eyes on Christ

Time to wake up
Before the shake up
We all gotta cross to bare

So stop complainin'

Start behavin'
In a way worthy to our Lord, Yeah….

Chorus
Got to praise Him
Got to sing out
Got to keep your eyes on Christ

Got to praise Him
Got to sing out
Got to keep your eyes on Christ

Hear me praying
Aint complaining
Start behaving
Keep your eyes on Christ

Keepin' time to the beat of my heart

Chorus
Shout to the Lord,
Ohhhh
Ohhhh, Ohhh
Shout to the Lord

Set your eyes on Jesus Christ
Forget about the worries of life

Chorus
Shout to the Lord,

Grab my favorite guitar
Crank it up for Adoni
Shout it out and sing real loud
Praise the Lord Almighty on high

"SAVE ME FROM MYSELF"
Lyrics & Music: Derek Richard, BMI 2006

I struggle and I fight
Fell down again last night
Can't get it right
Try walkin' in the Light
Save me from the fight
Don't want no wasted life

Jesus Christ…
Save me from my own self
Jesus Christ…
I'm a Danger to my own self
Jesus Christ…
Save me from own self
Jesus Christ…
Danger to my own self

Sometimes I ain't right
Don't ask for my advice
Jesus is our Christ
Follow after His own life
Lookin' toward the light
Show me the path of life

Jesus Christ…
Save me from my own self
Jesus Christ…
I'm a Danger to my own self
Jesus Christ…
Save me from own self
Jesus Christ…
Danger to my own self

Doin' what I don't want
Wantin' what I can't do
Try to walk the straight line
Headed for the red-line
Call upon my savior
Save me from my own self…………….

Chorus
Jesus Christ…
Save me from my own self
Jesus Christ…
I'm a Danger to my own self
Jesus Christ…
Save me from own self
Jesus Christ…
Danger to my own self

 

"I'M ALIVE"

Lyrics & Music: Derek Richard, BMI 2006

Have you ever seen a picture of Jesus Christ
I seen one on grandma's wall
Since 5 or 10 years old

Couldn't know what was to come
Went my own way
Didn't find my way back until I was 23

Chorus
I'm alive
Can't deny

Full of Light
Inside

I'm alive
Can't deny
Full of Life
Inside

No regrets I
Found my own way
Gonna live my life the righteous way

Ain't got no money

But I'm rich in heart
The one who lives inside me
Gave a brand new start

I'm alive
Can't deny
Full of Light
Inside

I'm alive
Can't deny
Full of Life
Inside

 

"THE TIME HAS COME"
Lyrics & Music: Derek Richard, BMI 2006

Homeless man on fifth and main
People turn their head away
Can't believe this world today

Single mom ain't to blame
Dad walked out, went his way
Give some love, She'll be OK

The time (echo)
Has come (echo)
Thy will be done (echo)

The time (echo)
Has come (echo)
Thy will be done (echo)

The time (echo)
Has come (echo)
Thy will be done (echo)

The time (echo)

Has come (echo)
Thy will be done (echo)

Johnny boy ten, Dad's away
Servin' country far away
Grab a ball and throw his way

Look inside your heart and say
Give the love of Christ today
Show a neighbor love in your own way

The time (echo)
Has come (echo)

Thy will be done (echo)

The time (echo)
Has come (echo)
Thy will be done (echo)

The time (echo)
Has come (echo)
Thy will be done (echo)

The time (echo)
Has come (echo)
Thy will be done (echo)

Homeless man on fifth and main
Single mom ain't to blame
Johnny boy ten, Dad's away

Look inside your heart and say
Give the love of Christ today
Show a neighbor love in your own way
Chorus
Repeat 2x
