SUNDAY MORNING
(Van Trevor - Dick Heard) « © '69 Mount Pocono Music, BMI »Sunday Sunday Sunday morning
A new week starts and the old one ends
On Sunday Sunday Sunday morning
Start the day out right with your family and your friends
Now I recall my younger years when I was just a pup
I could tell what day it was the moment I got up
On every Sunday morning and always without fail
My mom would have my Sunday suit out hanging on the nail
On Sunday Sunday Sunday morning...
Now mom and dad and sis and I put on our Sunday clothes
And hand in hand we'd all walk down that long and dusty road
Then order book and up the hill through the mountain side
And all our friends and neighbors they were marching in a line
On Sunday Sunday Sunday morning...
Now Parson Brown was waiting there to teach us Sunday school
We'd open up the good book and we'd learn the golden rule
And fore we'd even know it'd wash away our sins
Oh Lord it's grand to see how warm our Sunday morn begins
On Sunday Sunday Sunday morning...
Start the day out right with your family and your friends

LOVE TAKES CARE OF ME
(Jimmy Peppers) « © '68 Husky Music, BMI »Yes his love takes good care of me
Yes his love takes good care of me
And when the rain falls the wind blows the storm is on the sea
I'll be safe his love takes care of me
When life for me gets weary and the sun refuses to shine
I'll run to the arms of my Lord and there I will hide
He knows just what I need each day he's with me in the night
And if my footstep heaven strays his hand will guide me right
For his love takes good care of me...
For his love takes good care of me...
Yes I'll be safe his love takes good care of me

CRUMBS FROM THE TABLE
(Barbara Miller) « © '69 Eddie Miller Music, BMI »Lord bless your children who walk in perfection
Who'll manage to Master your will
Give them their share of sweet milk and wild honey
Provide bread of life till they're filled
Feed the children but give me the crumbs from the table
I'll wait for them down on my knees
I'd be ever so grateful for the crumbs from the table
For strenght needed to follow Thee
Lord I'm not worthy to eat from the platter
For I'm just a beggar in need
Satisfy others but when they're all finished
Dear Jesus have mercy on me
Feed the children...
(For strenght needed to follow Thee)

DADDY SANG BASS
(Carl Perkins) « © '68 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI / House Of Cash, BMI »I remember when I was a lad times were hard and things were bad
But there's a silver lining behind every cloud
Just poor people that's all we were tryin' to make a livin' out of black land dirt
We'd get together in a family circle singin' loud
And daddy sings bass mama sings tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Cause singin' seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won't be long we'll rejoin them in a song
We'll join the family circle at the throne
No the circle won't be broken by and by Lord by and by
When daddy sings bass mama sings tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there in the sky Lord in the sky
Well I remember after work mama would call in all of us
And you could hear us singin' for a country mile
Though little brother has done gone on we'll rejoin him in a song
We'll be together again up yonder in a little while
And daddy sings bass mama sings tenor...
In the sky Lord in the sky

NOW LORD WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU
(Ira Louvin - Anne Young) « © '63 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »(Now Lord what can I do for you)
In a land where there's freedom to worship
It was there that beauty creates that I should be born
You gave me the breath of life and let me see the light of dawn
And you gave me a father and a mother
Who have stood in the breach for me through all of my shortcomings
You did this when you might have turned away from the hard store
To cause your spirit to strife no more
Now Lord what can I do for you
Through the weary swift years of childhood till I was a man I rejected your call
Knowing that you gave your only begotten son to plea
At to die on the cross at calvary that I might have eternal life
And since that day long ago when with tender mercy you saved my soul
I've never called out your name except when I was in trouble sorrow or pain
Yet you have showered me with blessings even though I drifted away and grew cold
Now Lord what can I do for you
It's true I've been wild pleasured that I'm willing to surrender all
And now my life is mostly spent yet tonight you restored my soul
You gave me a loving wife and the family of my own
And I brought them shame my sins have caused them grief and pain I'm told
But they loved and believed in me when I know to them it seemed in vain
Yes you are a mercyful God to take me back again
Now Lord what can I do for you

WELL IT'S ALL RIGHT
(Cindy Walker) « © '66 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »Well it's all right it's all right
Long as I've got my Lord beside me well it's all right
Long as I've got his hand to hold long as he's a watchin' o'er my soul
Long as everything's in his control well it's all right
Moses said it's all right
When chariots of fayroll followed them in their flight
Well to see devided in two moses and the children walk right through
Through of wall of water on their left and on their right
Well it's all right it's all right...
Then David said it's all right
When the life marked them many challenged them to a fight
Little David said a prayer and then slunk a little stone and done 'em in
And the people say they may embrace the almighty's might
Well it's all right it's all right...
Daniel said it's all right
When they threw him in the lion's den that awful night
While the hungry lion's walked about Daniel said Lord please help me out
And the Lord has shut the lion's mouth and he shut it tight
Well it's all right it's all right...

IF GOD IS DEAD (WHO'S THIS LIVING IN MY SOUL)
(Lawrence Reynolds) « © '69 Tree Publishing, BMI »(If God is dead who's this living in my soul)
He put flowers on the hills your cup he gladly fills
How can you turn around and say God is dead
But when your stories have all been told there's one thing I'd like to know
If God is dead who's this living in my soul
He gives us shelter from life's stormy weather gives us love to keep us together
When life gets like a ship on a raging sea
And when the stage of life grows cold somebody helps us to play our role
If God is dead who's this living in my soul
If my soul had windows I'd leave them open so the world could see
The ugly scars upon those hands that cleft for you and me
There's the bridge you can cross if you will the toll was paid on Golgota's hill
If God is dead who's this living in my soul
If God is dead who's this living in my soul

HE TURNED THE WATER INTO WINE
(Johnny Cash) « © '68 House Of Cash, BMI »He turned the water into wine he turned the water into wine
In the little Canaan town the word went all around
That he turned the water into wine
He walked upon the Sea of Galilee well he walked upon the Sea of Galilee
Then he shouted far and wide and he calmed the raging tide
And he walked upon the Sea of Galilee
He turned the water into wine...
He healed the leper and the lame yes he healed the leper and the lame
He said go and tell no man but they shouted it through the land
That he healed the leper and the lame
He turned the water into wine...
He fed the hungry multitude he fed the hungry multitude
With a little bit of fish and bread they said everyone was fed
He fed the hungry multitude
He fed the hungry multitude he walked upon the Sea of Galilee
He healed the leper and the lame he turned the water into wine

WAY UP ON THE MOUNTAIN
(Ira Louvin - Anne Young) « © '65 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »I was down in the valley way down in the valley
When the Saviour heard my feeble cry
Now I'm back up on the mountain way up on the mountain
Drinking from the fountain that never will run dry
There was darkness all around me when my Saviour found me
Way down in the valley of dispair
But when I told him all my troubles my joys and he doubled
I'm way up on the mountain rejoicing in his care
Well I was down in the valley...
If it don't watch old Satan he'll get you in the valley
And hide you from the Saviour's guiding light
But he will stay behind you and he will never find you
Way up on the mountain if you fight the good fight
Well I was down in the valley...
Well I was down in the valley...
Well I say I was down in the valley...

GOD WILL
(John D. Loudermilk - Marijohn Wilkin) « © '59 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »God will walk with me down the streets where no one else will walk
God will talk with me bout things of which no one else will talk
When no one else will walk and no one else will talk when no one will God will
God will bare with me the little worries no one knows are there
God will care for me whenever there is no one else to care
When no one will be there and no one else will care when no one will God will
God will talk with me when friends forget and fail to understand
God will strenghten me when I am weak and need a helping hand
When no one understands or lends a helping hand when no one will God will
When no one will God will

DID YOU LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE
(Barbara Miller) « © '69 Eddie Miller Music, BMI »When you told that man about Jesus and his precious love
Did you let your light shine did you let your light shine
Oh was it just a matter of a bunch of empty words
Did you let your light shine did you let your light shine
Well don't you try to give it away if you don't have it yourself
Cause if your spirit is poverty stricken you can't give away much wealth
For you must see clearly for you know the blind can't lead the blind
(Did you let your light shine did you let your light shine)
Auctions always speak much louder than your words would sound
Did you let your light shine did you let your light shine
For did you act out all you preached to beg it really count
Did you let your light shine did you let your light shine
Well don't you try to give it away...
Did you let your light shine did you let your light shine
Well this little light of mine I'm a gonna let it shine
This little light of mine I'm a gonna let it shine
This little light of mine I'm a gonna let it shine
Let it shine let it shine let it shine
This little light of mine...
