Lyrics


Soldiers Under Command
We are the soldiers under God's command / We hold His two-edged sword within our hands / We're not ashamed to stand up for what's right / We win without sin, it's not by our might / And we're fighting all the sin / And the good book -- it says we'll win! / (chorus) / Soldiers, Soldiers, under command / Soldiers, Soldiers, fighting the Lords battle plan / Are you a soldier under God's command / Help fight the good fight, join us while you can / The battle that's waiting is fought so easily / Through Him, without sin there is victory / And were fighting all the sin / And the good book -- it says we'll win! / (chorus)

Makes Me Wanna Sing
We're gonna rock and have a good time / Tonight's the night, the night we move / Together we will stand to rock the land / We're gonna rock for something new / We're gonna rock for something true / Tonight's the night so let's lift up our hands / (chorus) / Jesus, King, King of Kings / Jesus, makes me wanna sing / He makes me want to jump around / He keeps my feet above the ground / Tonight the night it's best to rock the land / We're gonna rock for something new / We're gonna rock for something true / Tonight's the night so let's lift up our hands / (chorus)

Together Forever
Clap your hands and stomp your feet / All you girls and all you guys / Let's rock the world with a new beat / C'mon don't wait / Don't you pass it by / (chorus) / One big family / That will live eternally / Together forever / All you have to do / Is receive the one who died for you / I get so high I can't stay in my seat / Excitement fills the air / Let's rock the world with a new beat / All you girls and guys everywhere / (chorus)

First Love
She waits alone, oh every night / Tears are in her eyes / She has lost all the love she had / She lived her life for Him each day / She threw it all away / To live for herself - live her life her way / (chorus) / There is no love like the love of your first love / It's so true / It's for you as you are / Tears in the night / Filled with pain / You're running from the love / That you had once before - your first love / Someone to hold you though the pain / To make you smile again / And to protect you forever / Someone to take your fears away / To help you through each day / To carry you when you just can't go on / (chorus) / There is no love like the love of your first love / It's so true / Your love will never leave you / Tears in the night / Filled with pain / You're running from the love / That you had before you cried out for your first love / (chorus)

The Rock That Makes Me Roll
They say that rock and roll is strong / But God's the rock that makes us roll / Don't need no drugs to help us push on / We've got his power in our souls / (bridge) / Stand up and fight / For what you believe in / We know... / (chorus) / He's the rock that makes us roll / Rockin' all the world / Giving me the courage to be bold / Giving me just what I need / Always guaranteed / He's the rock that makes me roll - rock'n'roll / You say that rock and roll is strong / Yes, God's the rock that makes us roll / Don't need no drugs to help you push on / You can have His power in your soul / (bridge) / (chorus)

Reach Out
I was looking for the answer all the time / Always looking, never finding / I was empty inside / Falling into darkness / Needing the light to see / Reaching out for shelter / Then He set me free / (chorus) / I reached out, You reach out, He'll reach out today / I reached out, You reach out, He'll reach out today / If you're looking for the answer, now this is the time / To stop looking and start finding that feeling inside / You don't need the darkness / When there's a light to see / He'll provide the shelter / And He'll set you free / (chorus) / I'll reach out, I'll reach out / I'll reach out, I'll reach out today / Oh, reach out today / Oh, reach out today / Oh, reach out today / Oh, reach out today / I'll reach out today

(Waiting For) A Love That's Real
She says she tries so hard to show it / She wants to say what's on her mind / Seems like he doesn't want to know it / She says he's always so unkind / (bridge) / But she's not giving up / Until he sees / Her live inside is heavenly / (chorus) / I love you, I want you / But that won't change the way I feel / I love you, I want you / I don't want love that's just not real / It seems like nothing's getting better / She knows she just can't carry on / She always thought it would last forever / But now she knows that it's not love / (bridge) / She waits so patiently for perfect love / She knows someday it will come from above / (chorus) / (bridge) / She waits for Godly love / Knowing that someday it will come from above / (chorus)

Together As One
Now is the time / That we stand together as one / A new light inside us will shine / As bright as the sun / Let's bring, bring in the new / And do away with the old / A new love, a new love that's true / A love that's never cold, / A love that never dies / A love that fills our souls / We will survive / (chorus) / Together as one / We'll stand for the world to see / Together as one / We'll shine bright throughout eternity / All the dreams we've dreamed before / Are now reality / Now the dreams of a perfect love / Will always be / (chorus) / You and I in a perfect love faithfully

Surrender
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 / (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...

Battle Hymn Of The Republic
Mine eyes have seen the glory / Of the coming of the Lord / He is trampling out the vintage / Where the grapes of wrath are stored / He hath loosed the fateful lightening / Of His terrible swift sword / His truth is marching on / Glory, Glory Hallelujah / Glory, Glory Hallelujah / Glory, Glory Hallelujah / His truth is marching on / His truth is marching on
