1. Dying Day
Going down to the battle site where guns and bullets lay
To see the screaming wounded men, it's dying soldiers' day
Fight the yellows, fight the reds, shoot all those in sight
Fight the wars that were never yours, kill the world tonight
Dying day - for without the king, there'll be
Dying day - there's no use to look to see
Another way - talk of peace never ends
Dying day - but the blood sheds instead
Take your boots and here's your gun,
Take your lunch and wage
Here's a piece of ribbon if you're killed while acting brave
Hit the sirens, nuke the town, drink the acid rain
Peace will be here late next week, ups on train
Dying day - for without the king, there'll be
Dying day - there's no use to look to see
Another way - talk of peace starts the fight
Dying day - so the wars go on, that's right
Fill the shelters, clear the grounds, missile's on its way
No more time to change your mind, brother, it's too late,
It's dying day
Dying day - the king is the light, your only key
Dying day - there's no other way to see
Dying day - without him, you've just lost the light
Dying day - oh the king, oh the king was right
2. He Loves You
There is someone who wants to hold you
in his arms because he loves you
Let him enter your empty heart
Jesus fills you, just open your arms
(1st chorus)
Is there a hole in your heart
you can't seem to fill
You've tried everything
But it's empty still
Look to the cross
That's where your answer is
He's not hanging there,
He lives - the Barren Cross
(2nd chorus)
He loves you
He loves you
He loves you
He loves you
God loved you first, that's why he made you
in his image and likeness so
your body is the temple of the spirit
When you accept him and you fear him
(1st chorus)
(2nd chorus)
3. It's All Come True
Then came forth the day
My life was taken away
I've been warned so many times
It's gonna all come true they say
I looked back at my past life
I rejected the one who came
To save us from this present fate
I must have been insane
I sit and think of a time
When i was once given a chance to recieve
The love of god; but i spat in his face
I got up - began to leave
I went about my whole life
Doing my own thing when i pleased
If only i had listened
I would be bound for glory
The day of judgement has arrived
Now who's rejecting whom
How many times have you been told
It's gonna all come true for - for you
All come true for you
It's all come true
4. Believe
Listen son to what i have done
I have recieved, i have believed
See me now, see what i found
I want to shout, come and believe
Believe
Believe
Believe
Believe
Give it a chance, freedom at last
Yours for free, take and recieve
Better than pot, Jesus rocks
Come and believe
Believe
Believe
Believe
Believe
You will find out joy will come to you
Take it, drink it, no fee, come and believe
Smoke on his love - believe
Believe
Believe
Believe
Believe
Chuck the past, do it fast
Could be your last chance to recieve
Where do you stand, what's the plan
Take it, come and believe
You will find out joy will come to you
Take it, drink it, no fee, come and believe
Smoke on his love and you will see the rock - roll
5. Going Nowhere
6. Killer of the Unborn (Live)
Lay her down, commence to drill
A primo murder, the legal kill
I am a child about to die
My mother does not hear my cry, no
(Chorus)
Killers of the unborn, killers
Killers of the unborn, stop the killing
Injection starts to work its way
I don't feel love, I just feel pain
I'm getting weaker, my poison blood
And death surrounds me like a flood
(Chorus)
The operation is over
I'm now in pieces in a garbage bag
Guilt will now take over
'Cause where is the relief you thought you had
The shame and tears she bears
The scar of guilt she is going to wear
But he can forgive her
If she gives her life to the saviour
No, no, they're gonna kill me
I don't want to die, just let me be
No, no, I feel the pain
I feel, I feel the pain, no.
7. Rock for the King
8. Give Your Life
The bible says in black and in red
To turn from sin and let Christ in
Love, happiness and peace eternally,
All these things can be yours - for free
(Chorus)
Give your life to Jesus - He'll forgive your sins
Give your life to Jesus - just let Him in
Give your life to Jesus - you could do no wrong
Give your life to Jesus - He will make you strong
Jesus said He's coming again
The day is near,
Well, can't you hear the voice of
Love, happiness and peace eternally,
All these things can be yours - for free
(Chorus)
Give your life to Jesus
Give your life to Jesus
Give your life to Jesus
