1. (in studio)
2. Surrender (Stryper cover)
Singing out in harmony
It explains so well
What we're called to do
Want to rock so you can see
We can rock as well
Rock as well for you
Bridge You can have it all tonight
Pick it up and make it right
Oh, you can be free
In the dark you need a light
Do you want to make it right
[Chorus]
Oh, Jesus Christ is the lover of your soul
And He wants to give you all you need
So freely surrender
Open up unto His Majesty
[Repeat Chorus]
Jesus Christ is the lover of your soul
And He wants to give you all you need
So freely surrender
To the King
Freely surrender
Open up unto His Majesty...
3. No Love
Though you speak with tongues of angels
Was said so long ago
If love is not the motive
Your evil as our foe
I don't care if you prophesy
Or have the power to heal
If His love does not abide in you
What you do is not real
[Chorus]
All you do is make the noise
You use the gifts just like toys
All you are is a sounding bell
With no love
You might be fooling everyone else
But you're not fooling me
You might even think you're fooling God
But believe me He sees
Don't be a fool
God is not mocked
For whatever you sow you'll reap
Let God change your heart
Don't conform to other's ways
Or let your heart remain where it is
In a garbage heap
4. (in studio)
5. This Present Darkness
Drive-by shootings fill fear in the hearts of the city
A shortage of life
No warriors to fight the thugs
who rule with no pity
The leaders say it will all end
but why do they constantly lose?
because the one thing they fail to
mention is they are part of it too
A constant search for cover
a search for the remnant to pray
but mighty are the weapons of God to
combat this present darkness
Satan's plan
complacency
Knowing not the fight for your soul
Don't believe his lies
just unveil your eyes
Through prayer
Bring down the strongholds
A constant search...
A constant search...
6. (in studio)
7. Stay of Execution
Strong is your hold, oh mortal flesh
And now I've fallen to you again
Mighty's the faith that overcomes
But somehow you always seem to win
Stay of execution
Stay of execution
On the straight and narrow path of life
The word always comes to lift me up
Brings me to my feet when I fall
But you lie in waiting to bring me down
Stay of execution
Stay of execution
And so the struggle still goes on
Between the spirit and the flesh
Knowing His Word will make me strong
For the tormenting of my flesh
Stay of execution...
8. (in studio)
9. The Call
I was once blinded by Satan
I had no friend
I was a prisoner of these
Of these four walls that surround me
But then
[Chorus 1]
I heard him
A voice calling me
My answer to all
My friend, you know the answer
But will you heed the call
I know you want to reach out and touch Him
But He can't answer if you don't ask at all
[Chorus 2]
Do you hear Him
He's calling out to you
Do you hear Jesus calling?
He's calling you
10. (in studio)
11. No Time
I've been through the day
And I don't have the time
To speak unto friends
Or to speak Lord to You
There is only one thing on my mind
And that is pleasing myself
Which I've no time to do
No time, no time
That's my constant cry
No time to help those in need
At last it's time to die
No time
At last before the Lord I came
I stood with downcast eyes
He held a book in His hands
It was the Book of Life
He opened up the book and said,
"Your name I cannot find
I was once going to write it down
But I couldn't find the time."
God opened up His book and said,
"Your name I cannot find
I was once going to write it down
But I couldn't find the time."
