1 FORGIVE MYSELF Amy Keffer Shellem/John Lemonis THERE S NO LIFE IN YESTERDAY, BUT IT S HARD TO JUST LET GO SO MANY THINGS I D LIKE TO CHANGE ALONG THIS BROKEN ROAD I NEED THE CHANCE TO START AGAIN, THERE S NO FUTURE IN MY PAST AND THERE S NO MOVING ON FOR ME, IF I M ALWAYS LOOKING BACK IT S TIME TO FORGIVE AND FORGET MERCY HAS NO MEMORY, GRACE HAS NO REGRET GOD TOOK THOSE SINS AND CARRIED THEM FAR AS THE EAST IS FROM THE WEST AND IF JESUS CAN FORGIVE ME THEN IT S TIME TO FORGIVE MYSELF EVERY ONE OF MY MISTAKES HAS BEEN BURIED BY THE WAVES IN THE SEA OF GOD S FORGETFULNESS, HE WASHED THEM ALL AWAY HE LOOKS BEYOND ALL I HAVE DONE TO THE HEART OF WHO I AM AND THE ONE WHO SAW ME FALL SO HARD GIVES ME STRENGTH TO STAND HIS FORGIVENESS IS TOMORROW S HOPE, AND WHERE MY HEALING STARTS MY FAILURE ISN T FINAL AND THOUGH THERE WILL BE SCARS

2 GOD CARES FOR ME Amy Keffer Shellem/Kelly Garner For God so loved the world Hey that s what the good book says He s done so much to prove it Calvary said it best No matter how long and rough the journey He s faithful as can be There s just no doubt about it Yes, I know God cares for me God cares for me when I m in trouble I know I m gonna be alright He s the one I can depend on To get me to the other side He s my helper, keeper, closest friend He s got a way of movin when I trust in Him Everyday, in every way, God cares for me Fear not for I am with you That s what Jesus said I ll be closer than a brother Whatever may lie ahead Even in your darkest valley I m the light that you can see Every promise tells the story Yes, I know God cares for me REPEAT

3 GOD IS IN THE PRAISE Amy Keffer Shellem/Twila LaBar On every side there's trouble But we have laid our burdens down We're reaching up to Heaven And making a joyful sound WIth hearts anticipating There's a stirring atmosphere As we sing the songs of Zion His Spirit will draw near Lift up your hands For God is in the praise Sing one more hallelujah To the Ancient of Days In the midst of tribulation Give Him glory anyway Just lift up your hands For God is in the praise Exalt Him in the sanctuary All saints who've been restored If you have a testimony Stand up and thank the Lord Celebrate His goodness Redeemed of the Lord say so Proclaim the name of Jesus And He will make His presence known We gotta lift Him up, lift Him up, lift Him up We gotta lift Him up, lift Him up, lift Him up We gotta lift Him up, lift Him up, lift Him up

4 GOD SETTLED IT ALL Amy Keffer Shellem/Daryl Williams God settled it all forever Amen Conquered at Calvary all of my sin Never to be remembered again God settled it all forever Amen Justice came collecting for the wrongs that I had done Satan, my accuser named them one by one But heaven stormed the gates of hell Forgiveness was alive and well All because mercy fell From a rugged cross I don t have to worry over what the future holds I have a sweet assurance as everyday unfolds Victory is mine today He ll take the sting of death away I ll rise with Him some happy day Salvation made it so REPEAT TAG Never to be remembered again God settled it all forever Amen

5 GRACE ALONE Amy Keffer Shellem/John Lemonis WHEN I STOP TO THINK OF ALL HE S DONE FOR ME, I M AMAZED HOW FAR HE HAD TO GO, HOW LOW HE HAD TO REACH, I M AMAZED HOW COULD ONE SO HOLY MEET ME IN MY SIN COVER ME WITH MERCY AND HELP ME START AGAIN GRACE ALONE, THE ONLY ANSWER THAT COULD BE FOR WHY THE GOD OF HEAVEN WOULD LOVE SOMEONE LIKE ME GRACE ALONE, THERE TO CATCH ME WHEN I FALL UNDESERVED, YET THROUGH IT ALL WHAT I HAVE ALWAYS KNOWN IS GRACE ALONE EACH TIME I REMEMBER THE FREEDOM I HAVE FOUND, I M AMAZED HE S FAITHFULLY FORGIVEN THE SIN THAT HAD ME BOUND AND I M AMAZED HOW COULD ONE SO SINFUL MERIT WHAT IT COSTS TO PURCHASE MY REDEMPTION THERE AT CALVARY S CROSS AMAZING GRACE HOW SWEET THE SOUND THAT SAVED A WRETCH LIKE ME

6 Heaven s Jubilee Public Domain Verse 1 Some glad morning we shall see, Jesus in the air Coming after you and me, joy is ours to share What rejoicing there will be, when the saints shall rise Headed for that jubilee, yonder in the skies Chorus Oh what singing, oh what shouting On that happy morning when we all shall rise Oh what glory, Hallelujah When we meet our blessed Savior in the skies Verse 2 When with all that heavenly host, we begin to sing Singing in the Holy Ghost, how the heavens will ring Millions there will join the song, with them we shall be Praising Christ through ages long, heaven's jubilee. Chorus Oh what singing, oh what shouting On that happy morning when we all shall rise Oh what glory, Hallelujah When we meet our blessed Savior in the skies

7 LOVE WORTH DYING FOR Amy Keffer Shellem/John Lemonis SOMETIMES I WONDER WHAT HE THOUGHT LOOKING ON HUMANITY HE MUST HAVE KNOWN THAT WHAT HE SAW WOULD LEAD TO CALVARY YET JESUS PAID THE PRICE THAT ONLY HE COULD PAY AND MERCY WROTE LOVE'S STORY WHEN HE GAVE HIS LIFE AWAY IT'S LOVE WORTH DYING FOR REACHING OUT TO SAVE THE LOST A SINNER'S GAIN, A SAVIOR'S BLOOD-STAINED CROSS RUSTY NAILS AND RUGGED WOOD SPOKE WHAT NO ONE EVER COULD HOW COULD WE MATTER MORE HE HAD LOVE FOR US WORTH DYING FOR SOMETIMES I WONDER WHERE I'D BE IF IT WERE NOT FOR GRACE BUT EVERY BROKEN ROAD AND SHATTERED DREAM LED TO HIS EMBRACE I'M AMAZED BY HIS COMPASSION, FORGIVEN FOR ALL TIME COVERED BY REDEMPTION SINCE HE GAVE HIS LIFE FOR MINE THERE IS NO WAY TO MEASURE THE DEPTH OF HIS GREAT LOVE FOR CALVARY'S JUST A GLIMPSE OF HOW MUCH HE CARES FOR US

8 THE DAY I GET HOME Amy Keffer Shellem/Kelly Garner With his hand on his bible He stood through the years And preached the old-time gospel Through life s toils and tears With his body worn and feeble This warrior of the faith Would often long for heaven I can still hear him say On the day I get home When I finally see Jesus I ll lay down my trials And trade a cross for a crown Freedom from suffering Is something I ve never known But I ll know what it s like On the day I get home When the long night has ended And morning breaks through Every saint who s fought the battle Will see celestial views I ll join that mighty chorus When I shout the victory I will give up my burdens In that city built for me What a day that will be When my Jesus I shall see When I look upon his face The one who saved me by his grace When He takes me by the hand and leads me to the promise land What a day glorious day that will be

9 THE RECORD IS CLEAR Rebecca J. Peck & Amy Keffer Shellem I STOOD IN SIN S COURTROOM AS JUDGMENT WAS CAST. MY ACCUSER CONDEMNED ME FOR THE SHAME OF MY PAST, AND RIGHT BEFORE JUSTICE COULD SEAL MY FATE, MERCY STEPPED IN, AND JESUS SAID, WAIT! THE RECORD IS CLEAR. THE DEBT HAS BEEN PAID. THE OLD ACCOUNT WAS SETTLED ALL BECAUSE OF GRACE. THE FUTURE IS CERTAIN. THERE S NOTHING TO FEAR. CALVARY S BLOOD SIGNED THE PARDON, AND THE RECORD IS CLEAR. NOW I LIVE IN FREEDOM. MY GUILT IS ERASED. THERE S HOPE FOR TOMORROW BECAUSE I VE BEEN SAVED. MY SHACKLES ARE GONE. I M FOREVER REDEEMED, NO LONGER SIN S OUTCAST, BUT A CHILD OF THE KING. * LONG AGO (DOWN ON MY KNEES), LONG AGO (I SETTLED IT ALL), YES, THE OLD ACCOUNT WAS SETTLED LONG AGO, AND THE RECORD S CLEAR TODAY, FOR HE WASHED MY SIN AWAY WHEN THE OLD ACCOUNT WAS SETTLED LONG AGO, LONG AGO. TAG THE FUTURE IS CERTAIN THERE S NOTHING TO FEAR CALVARY S BLOOD SIGNED THE PARDON THE OLD ACCOUNT IS SETTLED MY FUTURE IS CERTAIN AND THE RECORD IS CLEAR THE RECORD IS CLEAR

10 WILL YOU GO Amy Keffer Shellem & Rebecca J. Peck IT SEEMS THE NEED IS GREATER THAN IT S EVER BEEN TO SHARE THE LOVE OF JESUS WITH A WORLD THAT STILL NEEDS HIM. IT WON T BE LONG BEFORE THE CHURCH IS QUICKLY CALLED AWAY, YET THERE ARE THOSE WHO VE NEVER HEARD JESUS IS THE WAY. WILL YOU GO EMPOWERED BY THE CROSS AND TAKE THE GLORIOUS GOSPEL TO SOMEONE THAT S LOST? JESUS LAID DOWN HIS LIFE, IN SPITE OF ALL IT COST. TO THOSE WHO STILL DON T KNOW CHRISTIAN, WILL YOU GO IS THERE SOMEONE WHO S WILLING TO BE A SACRIFICE, TO HEAR THE GREAT COMMISSION AND ANSWER WITH THEIR LIFE? MILLIONS STILL ARE DYING WITH A HOPELESS DESTINY. THE HARVEST FIELDS ARE READY NOW; IT S UP TO YOU AND ME. * RESCUE THE PERISHING, CARE FOR THE DYING. JESUS IS MERCIFUL; JESUS WILL SAVE.

11 DRINKING FROM THE WELL Amy Keffer Shellem/Kelly Garner/Dianne Wilkinson I spent my days Out in the desert walking Longing for something To satisfy Lost and alone Lord I was dying Until Your spirit Came and saved my life There s a reason why I ll never thirst again I been drinking from the well The well of that living water Sent from the Father Down to my thirsty soul He filled me up with that cool refreshing water I knelt down where the mercy fell And ever since that day I been drinking from the well Now every day My joy is overflowing Knowing that Jesus Walks by my side If someone says, Tell me what made the difference I ll point that river That never will run dry I can testify, He s changed me from within That life-giving flow washed my sins away And if you drink from that fountain you will say
