O' Mary, Mary I know just whom you seek, You seek for Jesus, whom they crucified last week Now child he's risen from the dead and now he walks the Streets of Galilee O' Mary, Mary Tell the disciples that he is free Run Mary run Now he is waiting just for you Out on the streets of Galilee Now when they got up to the mountain, Where he said he'd be They worshipped and adored him And said Lord how can this be "All power is within me" From sea to shining sea Now, go tell all the world about me And tell them that I walk the Streets of Galilee You can tell them I am alive and doing well Out on the Streets of Galilee Words and Music by Michael E. Farris ? Gypsy7Music
Well if I could I surely would Stand on the rock that Moses stood Singin' Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep Well Mary wore three locks of chain On every link was Jesus' name Singin' Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep O Mary don't you weep, don't you mourn O Mary don't you weep, don't you mourn Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep Well one of these nights around 12 o'clock This old world is gonna reel and rock Singin' Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep Well Moses stood on the Red Sea shore Smote' the water with a two by four Singin' Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep O Mary don't you weep, don't you mourn O Mary don't you weep, don't you mourn Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep Well old man Satan he done got mad Lost that soul that he thought he done had Singin' Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep Brothers and sisters don't you cry There'll be good times by and by Singin' Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep O Mary don't you weep, don't you mourn O Mary don't you weep, don't you mourn Singin' Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep God gave Noah the rainbow sign Said "No more water but fire next time" Singin' Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep O Mary don't you weep, don't you mourn O Mary don't you weep, don't you mourn Pharaoh's army got drownded O Mary don't you weep
Precious Lord, take my hand, Lead me on, let me stand, I am tired, I am weak, I am worn; take my hand, Lead me home When my way grows drear, Precious Lord, linger near, When my life is almost gone, Take my hand... Lead me home When the darkness appears And the night grows long And the day is past and gone, At the river I stand, Guide my feet, hold my hand, Precious Lord, lead me home Through the storm And through the night Lead me on To the light Take my hand, precious Lord Lead me home
I was born by the river In a little old tent Just like that river I been runnin' ever since It's been a long, Long time comin' But a change is gonna come Oh yes it is It's been too hard livin' But I'm not afraid to die Cause now I know what's up there Beyond that blue sky It's been a long, Long time comin' But a change is gonna come Oh yes it is I had to go downtown to see my brother My dear brother I asked my brother, "Won't you help me please?" He turned me down so I had to go see my mother My dear mother I said, "Mother, mother I'm down on my knees!" There's been times when I thought It's too late to go back home But now I think I'm able I'm able to carry on It's been a long, Long time comin' But a change is gonna come Oh yes it is It's been a long, Long time comin' But a change is gonna come
The devil put a sign out on the edge of town, "Live it up now before they lay you down!" They standin' in line when I was startin' to leave, the men and the women and a coupla thieves. Now the moon ain't shinin' and the stars just hide, I can't miss that train when it blows through here tonite. the hills are howlin' and the river is risin' and the devil don't sleep tonite. Move on up a little higher save my soul from the burnin' fires the Good book is my temple, Holy Spirit's my sword, and I can't sleep until I see the Lord. The fox is in the hen house and he's handin' out keys, He's a cool politician he'll set your mind at ease. He gonna lead 'em out the front door in the broad daylight, And you best believe he's eatin chicken tonite. Now, Mother Teresa's outside beggin' for a dime, she says she needs it to fix her busted spine. she says the burden is heavy but it suits me fine, Now gimme what you got and I will tell you the time. she sang.... Move on up a little higher. Save my soul from the burnin' fires. The good Book is my temple, Holy Spirit's my sword, and I won't rest until I see the my Lord. Look at the valley, it's eerily quiet. It's a cool misconception, I won't tell you no lies. If you look a little harder and listen you'll find, people screamin' out they windows for redemption tonite. |

It was early one mornin' Just about the break of day The angels came in glory And rolled the stone, stone away When the women came along And they found the Savior was gone Can't no grave Hold my body down Can't no grave Hold my body down Can't no grave Hold my body down When the first trumpet sounds I'm gonna get up out of the ground Can't no grave Hold my body down Listen up dear Gabriel Stand on land and the sea Don't you do nothing Till you hear orders from me Now the night is almost gone And the day is comin on Can't no grave Hold my body down Can't no grave Hold my body down Can't no grave Hold my body down
I crossed over that famed bridge last night, Back to the place where I began my journey And as I hit midtown all the smiles had turned to frowns on my way back home I saw people in the streets of gold, Handing bread out to the children They worked day and night Down at the graveyard sight, On my way back home And I said "Selah! Selah! Selah! I heard angels screamin' "Cain killed Able!" Ten thousand cleaned the tears from Jesus table He could not be consoled They buried him in a deep dark hole On His way back home And I sang Selah! Selah! Selah! Words and Music by Michael E.

I know a place Ain't nobody cryin' I know a place Ain't nobody lyin' There's no lyin' to the masses Ain't nobody beggin to be set free I know place Everybody's smiling They're smiling I'll take you there When I wake up in the morning And I'm gazin' through my mind I been searchin' for salvation And Jesus is right on time He says to "walk with me!" He says to "Talk with me!" "You got to have faith in me!" and all I want to do, all I want to do Take me I'll take you there
The day I let your dreams Get lost in the moment And the time I let my faith Get jaded and folded And all my strength, And all my will Is a helpless and scary place But now that you - are here with me In the palm of your unfailing grace I ain't ever going back to where I was before No, I ain't ever going back - to the lonely road, The lonely road can't lead me anymore. I used to think that I Had the power to change me But only you My Lord, have the power to save me. Now there's no doubt in my mind Where in this world I would be Without love - without you, without eternity And I ain't ever going back to where I was before No, I ain't ever going back - to the lonely road, The lonely road can't lead me anymore I was so blind Till I saw your glory The day you saved me from my fire Will always be The best part of my story I ain't ever going back to where I was before No, I ain't ever going back - to the lonely road, The lonely road can't lead me anymore. Music by Michael E. Farris Lyrics by Michael E. Farris and Sam Mizell, 2006
I'm getting closer by the day. I can hear the angels pray I just wanna see His face And thank Him for the love and grace I'll probably break down and cry When I reach my home by and by I'm gonna get there... I'm gonna get there... Every time I try to pray Something's always tryin to get in my way But they can try what they wanna do But I ain't ever letting go of you I've come to far to turn back now I want to be there when the Saints all smile I'm gonna get there I'm gonna get there (I'm gonna get there) When I get to heaven gonna jump and shout (I'm gonna get there) They'll be nobody there to throw me out (I'm gonna get there) I'm gonna look up David in the heat of the day, (I'm gonna get there) Tune up my harp, and begin to play Words and Music by Michael E.
