Prayer Bells Of Heaven

Jimmy Martin - Paul Williams

While we are livin' in this world of care
Many the burdens that we have to bear
But there's a prayer bell at the Lord's right hand
Give it a ring and he will understand

Prayer bells of heaven oh how sweetly they ring
Bearin' their message unto Jesus our king
When you are burdened down with trouble and care
Ring on and on for God will answer your prayer
[ instrumental ]
Three Hebrew children through the flames were thrown
Because a mortal king they would not own
Jesus delivered and the king then saw
Prayer bells of heaven beats a man made law

Prayer bells of heaven oh how sweetly they ring...

When Paul and Silas both were thrown in jail
They did not worry who would go their bail
Pulled on the prayer bell they begin to ring
Off fell the spots they begin to sing

Prayer bells of heaven oh how sweetly they ring...

Goodbye

Saviour bless us as we part
Fill our souls with love divine
Comfort every troubled heart
May we feel that we are there

Goodbye goodbye
If on earth we meet no more
Goodbye goodbye
May we meet on heaven's shore
[ instrumental ]
If on earth we meet no more
Let us meet at God's right hand
Where we shall each other greet
Mid the glories of that land

Goodbye goodbye...

Give Me The Roses Now

Jimmy Martin - Paul Williams

Wonderful things of folks are said
When they have passed away
Roses adorn the narrow bed
Over the sleeping clay

Give me the roses while I live
Tryin' to cheer me on
Useless the flowers that you give
After the soul is gone
[ instrumental ]
Praises are heard not by the dead
Roses they cannot see
Let us not wait til soul's have fled
Generous friends to be

Give me the roses while I live...
[ instrumental ]
Faults are forgiven when folks lie
Cold in the narrow bed
Let us forgive them 'ere they die
Now should the words be said

Give me the roses while I live...

What Would You Give In Exchange

Brother afar from the Saviour today
Risking your soul for the things that decay
Though if today God should call you away
What would you give in exchange for your soul

What would you give (in exchange)
What would you give (in exchange)
What would you give in exchange for your soul
Oh if today God should call you away
What would you give in exchange for your soul
[ instrumental ]
Mercy is callin' you wont you give in
Must the dear Saviour still tenderly plead
Risk not your soul it's precious indeed
What would you give in exchange for your soul

What would you give (in exchange)...

Voice Of My Saviour

Jimmy Martin - Raymond Long

© Unichappell Music, BMI

I heard a sweet voice so tenderly callin'
Sayin' arise be saved ever more
I knew it must be the voice of my Saviour
For I had not heard a voice like it before

I remember one night in an ole fashioned meetin'
I was prayin' to God to redeem my poor soul
When I heard the sweet voice of my lovin' Saviour
And I started that night to make heaven my home

I heard a sweet voice so tenderly callin'...
[ instrumental ]
I'm glad that I heard the voice of my Saviour
I know I'm redeemed by his wonderful grace
Someday when he calls I'll go up to heaven
And then in that city I'll look on his face

I heard a sweet voice so tenderly callin'...

Shut-in's Prayer

Jimmy Martin - Paul Williams

© Champion Music, BMI

Last night as the moon pulled anchor
And sailed down the milky way
It peeped through an open window
Where a lonely shut-in lay
The moon seemed to shine much brighter
Each star seemed to nod it's head
The night seemed so strangely peaceful
When they heard what the shut-in said

Dear God way up in heaven I earnestly pray to Thee
And my prayer oh Lord wilt thou answer and lay a healing hand on me
This vain world seems to forget me Lord and I've been a shut-in so long
I'm needing thy love dear Jesus instill in my heart a song
Lord I ask not for gold or silver and no diamonds to call my own
Just give me thy touch of healing I'm so weak and all alone
I trust that I'm not askin' too much of thy heavenly wealth
when humbly dear Lord I pray thee just give me back my health
Then off to dreamland the shut-in drifted yes God heard what the shut-in said

The night seemed so strangely peaceful
God heard what the shut-in said

This World Is Not My Home

Mary Reeves - Albert E. Brumley

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

This world is not my home I'm just a passin' through
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

Oh Lord you know I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home oh Lord what would I do
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
[ instrumental ]
They're all expectin' me and that's one thing I know
I fixed up with Jesus a long time ago
I know he'll carry me through though I am weak and poor
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

Oh Lord you know I have no friend like you...
[ instrumental ]
Just goin' to Gloryland there'll be no dyin' there
The saints all shoutin' voctory and singin' everywhere
I hear the voice of those that's gone long before
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

Oh Lord you know I have no friend like you...

Pray The Clouds Away

Jimmy Martin - Paul Williams

© Champion Music, BMI

When you hear the thunder boomin' when you see the lightnin' flash
When the castles you have builded have all fallen with the crash
And when everything about you has all crumbled to decay
If you'll just start right in prayin' you can pray the clouds away

Pray the clouds away the dreary clouds so dark and gray
Prayin' to the Lord believe the promise of his words
Clouds are like the snow when the shines the sun they all must go
Pray my brother pray and you will pray the clouds away
[ instrumental ]
When ole Satan keeps tormentin' tellin' you a lot of lies
Then it again it seems the shadows come to fill your sunny skies
When he laughs at all your weakness and he mocks you as you pray
Once again just start in prayin' and you'll pray the clouds away

Pray the clouds away the dreary clouds so dark and gray...

Lord I'm Coming Home

William Kirkpatrick

© Bridge Building Music, BMI

I've wandered far away from God
Now I'm coming home
The path of sin too long I've trod
Lord I'm coming home

Coming home coming home
Never more to roam
Open wide Thine arms of love
Lord I'm coming home
[ instrumental ]
I've wasted many precious years
Now I'm coming home
I now repent with bitter tears
Lord I'm coming home

Coming home coming home...
[ instrumental ]
Coming home coming home...

Give Me Your Hand

Jimmy Martin - Paul Williams

© Champion Music, BMI

As a army we're marching toward Heaven
So it's best that together we stand
We my not have the same rank or title
But we're soldiers so give me your hand

Oh I care not what church you belong to
Just as long as for God you may stand
If your heart today is as my heart
You're my brother so give me your hand
[ instrumental ]
You may not come to our great cathedral
But belong to some small praying band
But if you love my Christ our Redeemer
You're a Christian so give me your hand

Oh I care not what church you belong to...
[ instrumental ]
We are bound for that beautiful city
Where before the white throne we shall stand
And we'll all be as one there together
Hallelujah so give me your hand

Oh I care not what church you belong to...
You're my Brother so give me your hand

The Little White Church

Eugene Wellman

© Peer Int, BMI

Oh the church in the valley oh that little white church
Is the place I love so well
Now I'm sad and lonely yes I'm sad and lonely
For that little white church in the dell

There's a little white church in the valley
That stands in my memory each day
And it seems I can hear the bells now ringing
Though I am many miles away

And many times in church on Sunday morning
That whole countryside would gather there
They would all kneel down by the altar
As they lifted up their voice in prayer

Oh the church in the valley oh that little white church...
[ instrumental ]
They would sing the old song Rock of Ages
Oh Christ let me hide myself in Thee
And I know some of them are now waiting
Just o'er that dark and stormy sea

I know that troubles all are ended
And happy forever they will be
They are waiting and watching up yonder
For the coming home of you and me

Oh the church in the valley oh that little white church...

God Guide Our Leader's Hand

Jimmy Martin - Paul Williams

© Champion Music, BMI

Oh dear God please watch and guide our greatest leader
Of all nations so that they may understand
That a war with these mighty distructive weapons
Could destroy us all upon this earth and land

We are livin' in the days the Bible tells us
That all evil will depart their friendship eyes
And with hate and evil destroyin' each's nations
Oh dear God please watch and guide our leader's hand

Oh dear God please watch and guide our greatest leader...
[ instrumental ]
When you feel this ole earth begin to tremble
And you hear the mighty roarin' in the sky
With a blinding flash of fire and destruction
From the mighty destructive weapons we must die

Oh dear God please watch and guide our greatest leader...
[ instrumental ]
God tells us these wars will come upon us
That all evil will destroy this earth and land
We should pray for a great world wide revivile
Instead of tryin' to see who's the strongest man

Oh dear God please watch and guide our greatest leader..
