A Cappella
Words and Music by Les Carter and Susan Sisko
1973 Max Hound Music BMI
Lead: Keith Lancaster

There's a light that's from the window
And it shines down on the street
There's some guys standing on the corner
Making that good old harmony
And now there's a light that's from the window
And it's sent to the street corner symphony
Let 'em sing, let 'em shout
Cause they're singing that good old harmony

Chorus:
Singing it soul to soul
Brother to brother
A cappella
Well it sounds good to me
Singing it soul to soul
Brother to brother
A cappella
Well it sounds good to me

And now I turn out the light
Say goodnight to another day
I'm gonna rest my weary head
In my long a-waited bed
I'm gonna get on my knees and pray
Ask the Lord to give me just one more day
Oh, Lord, hear my plea
This music just sounds so good to me

Chorus

You know we're singing for the Lord
And now we're feeling mighty good
Giving praise to God the father
Like we know all Christians should
We don't need any type of guitar
Or an instrument to use
Oh, it sounds good to me
And I'm hoping it sounds good to you

Chorus

Soul sing a cappella
Soul sing a cappella
Soul sing a cappella ooh

Church sing a cappella
Church sing a cappella
Church sing a cappella ooh


Better Than Life
Words and Music by Keith Lancaster
Anthony K Music copyright © 1987 ASCAP
Lead: Rodney Britt

In a dry and weary land where is no water
My soul is thirsting for you
I have seen you in the sanctuary
Beheld your power and glory
My lips will glorify you
I will praise you as long as I live
In your name I will lift up my hands

Chorus:
Your love is better than life
Your love is better than life
Earnestly I seek you
My soul is thirsting for you
Cause your love is better than life

Because you are my help I will be singing
In the shadow of your wing
I'm staying close beside you
Your right hand upholds me
I think of you through the night
With singing lips I will praise
And my soul will be satisfied

Chorus

Bridge:
Oh, God, you are my God
Earnestly I seek you
I'm longing for you
Oh, God, you are my God
Earnestly I seek you
I'm longing for you

Chorus


Everybody Praise
Words and Music by Keith Lancaster and Randy Hatchett
Anthony K Music copyright © 1986 ASCAP
Lead: Keith Lancaster

Everybody praise the name of Jesus
Everybody worship the king
Lifting up our praise to overflowing
Lauding our Redeemer as we sing
Meaning every single word that we say
Let's declare how love found a way
Now the music of our heart is plain
Never tire of hearing it again

Chorus:
Everybody praise his name
Sing hallelujah to the King of Kings
He will never leave us
He remains the same
Everybody praise his name

Everybody praise the name of Jesus
Everybody worship the king
Lifting up our praise to overflowing
Lauding our Redeemer as we sing
Meaning every single word that we say
Let's declare how love found a way
Now the music of our heart is plain
Never tire of hearing it again

Chorus x2

Everybody praise his name


He Gave Her Water
Arrangement by Keith Lancaster
Anthony K Music ASCAP copyright © 1987
Lead: Keith Lancaster

CHORUS
Oh Jesus, he gave her water
You know my Jesus gave her water
Oh Jesus gave her water
And it was not from the well

Well, there was a woman from Samaria
She came to the well to get some water
It was there she met a stranger
And he did her story tell
She left my savior singing
She came back to him bringing
The time she had water
And it was not from the well

Chorus

Well on that woman he had pity
She ran back to the city
Crying glory hallelujah
I'm gonna let his praises swell
Every time she'd doubt him
She's stop and think about him
The man that gave her that living water
And it was not from the well

Oh, gave her water
Jesus gave her water
Oh Jesus he gave her water
I'm gonna let his praises swell

Jesus gave that woman water
He gave her that living lasting water
Oh, and it was not from the well
(Repeat)

John The Revelator
Words and Music by Rusty Goodman
© 1975 First Monday Music ASCAP
Lead: Keith Lancaster

Upon the Isle of Patmus
One man was cast one day
As he was left alone to die
He began to pray
The Holy Ghost fell on him
The Spirit, he came down
Well he began to write about the things he saw
The Revelator's name was John

Chorus:
Talkin' 'bout John the revelator
he saw Jerusalem coming down
Yes it was John the Revelator
And when he looked around
He saw feet like brass
Eyes like fire
Heard a great voice saying
Come up higher
He was John the Revelator
He wrote about the city of God

While in the Spirit praying
John turned around to see
If the voice he had heard
Was what it seemed to be
Just like many waters
A great trumpet sound
Well he said I am the first and last
The Revelator wrote it down

More Than A Friend
Words and Music by Keith Lancaster
© 1986 Anthony K Music copyright ASCAP
Lead: Keith Lancaster

More than a friend, more than a friend
More than a friend, more than a friend

Chorus:
Well, he's more than a friend
More than a friend
Yes, he's more than a friend to me
'Cause he gave up his life
And at oh such a price
And he's more than a friend to me

People keep on searching for the perfect friend
Who they'll trust with their compassion and their confidence
Cause they need someone to love them in the deepest way
Hear what I'm about to say

He was willing to give his life
Ultimate sacrifice
He was God made flesh and put to death for me
Now you know it's easy to see

Chorus

Ever since I've known him
I am not the same
And I'm proud to say that
I can wear his precious name
'Cause of all the ones who love me
That will ever be
No one cares as much as he

He was willing to count the cost
Suffering for the lost
Not a greater love that I could receive
Now you know I gotta believe

Chorus

Listen to me

More than a friend
More than a friend (well he's more than a friend)
More than a friend
More than a friend (well he's more than a friend)
More than a friend
More than a friend (well he's more than a friend)
More than a friend
More than a friend

Chorus


Do You Love The Lord
Words and Music by Keith Lancaster
© 1990 Anthony K Music ASCAP
Lead: Keith Lancaster

Do you love the Lord?
Are you taking the time to be reading His Word?
Do you trust and obey each and every day?
Do you love the Lord?

It's not for your brother; it's not kids at school,
It's not for others to say.
Decide for yourself live the golden rule,
Only you can choose the way.

Do you love the Lord?
Are you taking the time to be reading His Word?
Do you trust and obey each and every day?
Do you love the Lord?

It's not for your mom and it's not for your dad,
It's not for your Sunday school class
Decide for yourself to be good, never bad,
Making your decision last.

Do you love the Lord?
Are you taking the time to be reading His Word?
Do you trust and obey each and every day?
Do you love the Lord?


When I Say Farewell

When I say farewell
To my life on earth
I will be with Jesus
No more tears (no more tears will fill my eyes)

Chorus:
Reigning with my Savior
Reigning with my Savior
Reigning with my Savior

When I say farewell
To my life on earth
I will be with Jesus
No more tears (no more tears will fill my eyes)

Chorus:
Well you rock-a-my-soul
Down in the bosom of Abraham

Down in the bosom of Abraham
You rock-a-my-soul
Down in the bosom of Abraham
You rock

He had a home in hell (he should have praised the Lord)

The Time Has Come
Words and Music by Keith Lancaster
© 1986 Anthony K Music ASCAP
Lead: Keith Lancaster

The time has come to tell the masses
That Jesus Christ our Savior lives
Of how he loves us like the Father
And of the Spirit that he gives

The time has come to take the message
To those who'll never be the same
Too many bound by false religion
To those who've never heard his name

Chorus:
The time has come to tell the nation
The time has come to spread the Word
In every tongue we must confess him
We must reveal our precious Lord

The time has come, we must not waste it
The time has come to sound the news
It is for every single nation
We cannot wait the time has come

From Macedonia the call is sounding
In Istanbul the People wait
The countless children in Peking China
The thirsting souls of Uruguay

The time has come to go to Boston,
Salt Lake, Nashville, and Abilene
Yes from L.A. to New York City
And every county in between

Chorus

The time has come
The time has come
The time has come...


Let's Get Together
Words and Music by Keith Lancaster, Bill Spencer and Rodney Britt
© 1985 Anthony K Music ASCAP
Lead: Keith Lancaster

There are too many Christian
Who don't talk to each other
They're not acting like brothers
They're not loving at all
They' refuse confrontation
They choose gossip and slander
For solutions meander
Well they're in for a fall

We can't keep going on
Like this every day
Hear what I say

Chorus:
Let's get together
Let's stop the fighting
Let start uniting
Whoa... Whoa.. Whoa..
Let's get together
Let's stop the fighting
Let start uniting
Whoa... Whoa.. Whoa..

There're too many people
Who don't know the Savior
They see our behavior
is not what is should be
So let's get together
No more fussing and fighting
We need love and uniting
To be one family

We can't keep going on
Like this every day
Hear what I say

Chorus

Bridge:
It's time to stop the fighting
And start giving our love to each other
Oh don't you that they're never gonna
See how we're lovin' our Lord
Unless we're givin' our love to each other

Chorus
