1. ATTENTION PLEASE

Hey all you people, stand up and join me,
Gimme a listen, I've got something for you.
We have a reason to get excited.
His name is Jesus, He knows all about you.

It's time to wake up, shake up!
He's calling out, your attention please.
He wants it now, your attention please, please!

Your head is spinnin', so many questions.
Wonder what's missin', could it be true?
There is an answer and if you seek Him,
You will find Him.
He will make all things new!

It's time to learn the right way,
The straight way!

Do you hear him callin' you?
It's time to make your move!

You're always thinkin' nobody loves you.
You're left alone and there's no one to call.
Can't find a reason to keep on livin'.
Your hands are tied up,
You're nailed to the wall.


2. RED LIGHT

Alive at 5, it's the end of the day.
Punch the card, now it's time to play.
Flip of the card, cast your dice.
Looking good now, but the end ain't nice.

You're shouting, but you're deaf to all.
You don't listen and you don't heed the call.
Feelin high and feeling tall,
It's so easy to fall.

Look out for the stop light,
A warning in the night.
Listen to the Spirit, he'll stop your plight.
Red light, he'll show you who's right.
You'll see who's right,
That's right!

Slip of the lip, back to the wall.
Best laid plans, get ready to fall.
Easy come, easier go,
But the voice of God wants you to know.

Breaking down, disaster around.
Mud on your collar, got your face in the ground.
When you're mind is blown, you can't hear the sound.
You're going down.

Look out for the stop light,
A warning in the night.
Listen to the Spirit, he'll stop your plight.
Red light, we'll show you who's right.
Time to surrender and stop your fight.

Stop light, a warning in the night.
Give it a listen, and he'll stop your plight.
Red light, we'll show you who's right.
You'll see who's right.

It'll take you from wrong to right,
From black to white.

Slip of the lip, back to the wall.
Best laid plans, get ready to fall.
Easy come, easier go,
The Holy Spirit wants you to know...

He's talking to you inside.
He's telling you, you don't have to hide.
You can be on a brand new side.
Don't you know that the Devil lied?

Stop light, a warning in the night.
Give it a listen and he'll stop your plight.
Red light, we'll show you who's right.
The Devil's wrong. The Holy Spirit is right.

Stop light, a warning in the night.
Sin is the disease.
Red light, we'll show you who's right.
The cure's gonna bring you to your knees.

Stop light, it will never hold you back.
Red light, it'll always keep you on track.
Stop light, the warning in the night.
Red light, the Holy Spirit's gonna show you who's right.
Stop light, red light.


3. STRAIGHT THRU THE HEART

Sometimes you're up, sometimes you're down.
Sometimes you feel like your world is spinnin'
Round and round.
Just one thing that you're looking for.
Hungry for some love,
Tired of playin' the killin' floor,
The answer lies above.

Want someone to hold you, touch you inside.
Love that never turns away, doesn't run and hide.

Straight through the heart,
Like an arrow shot from heaven.
God's love doesn't miss.
Straight through the heart,
It'll hit you where you live.

Sometimes you're hot, feel like wild fire.
And your heart is walkin' on a high wire.
Feel it crash and burn.
Hang your head in misery.
I'll tell you what I've learned.

Need someone to hold you, touch you inside.
God's love never turns away,
Doesn't run and hide.

Now I know that you've been burned before.
You feel that love is unkind,
But now's the time to give Him a chance.
An arrow of love is what you'll find.


4. DOWN

The train is in the station now,
It's reached the end of the line.
Two times a loser, you never could refuse her,
The lie exposed and the old life,
You've left it all behind.

You're going down, down, down.
She's a master of disguise,
You're going down, down, down.

When you first started, it all seemed like a joke,
But then that's always how you've been.
Now I hardly know you,
The lady she does own you.
And now you're finding out,
You're finding out, the joke's on you, my friend.

You're going down, down, down.
Don't you realize,
You're going down, down, down.

What would you do to get another hit
And snort the powder once again.
Before you burn out, and fade away,
Cry out to Jesus,
Only the Lord can take your sin away.


5. BEHOLD

So many choices for a man to make,
So many ways that he can go,
But all the kingdoms in a thousand worlds,
Could not replace the peace I know.

The things of earth can never satisfy
The hunger deep in me.

Behold the Lamb of God,
Reaching out His nail-scarred hand.
He wants to lift you up,
Give you strength so you can stand.

It's only natural for a man to dream,
To reach for stars above himself.
My life was cluttered with shattered dreams,
Before I learned to seek your will.

You are the rain that falls on thirsty ground
And the light that opens windows in my soul.


6. SHAKEDOWN

Not everyone who calls Him Lord
Is gonna walk down those streets of gold.
Many will say, Look at what I did.
He'll say, You were neither hot nor cold.

A tree that bears bad fruit will burn,
I want you to be without blame.
Your foundation better be on the rock,
We'll see who's playing games, gonna be a

Shakedown, I want to know where you stand.
Shakedown, Will you look to me and take my hand?
Shakedown, I want to know where you stand.
Shakedown.

Where your treasure is there your heart will be,
Can't trust your wealth or your color TV.
Can't serve God and money too,
Can't get to heaven by what you do.

He said I am the Way to God,
You'll have to go through me.
If you're not with me, then you're against me,
One day soon we'll see.


7. FLASHPOINT

(Intrumental)


8. SIMPLE MAN

Another day, another dollar in my hand.
Working hard to make it, I give it all I can.
I got a lot of dreams, and a long way to go,
But I know that God provides, if I pray and let him know

'Cause I'm a simple man, and I love the Lord.
I know that He'll provide my needs.
Yes I'm a simple man, and I love the Lord.
His love is everything to me.

There's a house on the corner, with a light I can see,
And standing in the door is the only girl for me.
The reason that she loves me, and we walk hand in hand
Is because I'm a Christian, and we both know where we stand.

I'm a simple man, and I love the Lord.
We know that He'll provide our needs.
Yes I'm a simple man, and I love the Lord.
His love is everything to me.

And there's a few things that I'd like to say to you.
There still is one thing that I need.
Someday, when the end of my road has come,
I hope to see my Lord say "Thanks for a job well done."

Now if you see my life as happy as can be,
The mystery is not so hard. It's a gift, and it's free.
This gift is in a book my Lord wrote for me.
You can have it too, and then you will see

Why I'm a simple man, and I love the Lord.
His gift is everything I need.
Yes I'm a simple man, and I love the Lord.
His love is everything to me.
His love is everything to me.


9. OVER THE TOP

In the rough, think you're tough,
Don't need no help from no one.
Load your gun, just for fun,
Bullets make you feel like someone.

You think, another drink,
Might solve your problems baby!
Think again, It's a dead end,
Gonna kill you, and I don't mean maybe.

It's up to you, which way will you choose?
Listen carefully, you don't have to lose.

He's put us over the top,
Ooh, we don't deserve it.
Over the top, there's hope for you and me.
Over the top, with Jesus we will make it.
His power has loosed our chains,
His love has set us free!

Blaze a trail, end in jail.
On the run your heart is poundin'.
Hit the street, it's then you meet
Another gang, and the war calls soundin'.

You try, to live a lie.
Good looks are all you need.
What a shame, a losin' game.
Stood up, how your heart bleeds.

He's put us over the top,
Ooh, we don't deserve it.
Over the top, there's hope for you and me.
Over the top, with Jesus we will make it.
His blood has washed away our sins,
Now we have victory!

You see, just what you need.
At the door the Lord is knockin'.
Open up, He'll fill your cup,
Calm the sea if your life boat's rockin'.

If you decide, not to hide,
He'll take you by the hand,
Show you to somethin' new,
Lead you on to the promised land.


10. HEAVEN'S CALLING TONIGHT

I hear the sound of a trumpet,
I can see the Glory of God.
The tears have been dried from my eyes,
Feel warm in the presence of love.

Children march as they lead us down streets of gold.
Everlasting peace within us,
The face of the Lord we will ever behold.

Heaven's calling tonight!
Now won't you turn from darkness to light.
Heaven's calling tonight!

I know my worries are over,
From now on my Jesus will reign.
Old things are gone forever, my friend.
A crown of life is what I've gained.

I see a king on a white horse riding with power untold.
The Lord God will be our leader.
The Lamb that was slain, forever sits on a throne.

Can you hear it? Can you see it?
Children singing songs of great joy,
Forever with Jesus,
Hand in hand, each girl and boy.
