I've gone through the fire And I've been through the flood I've been broken into pieces Seen lightnin' flashin' from above But through it all I remember That He loves me And He cares And He'll never put more on me Than I can bear
I said Never put more on me No no Never put more on me Unh unh Never put more on me Never His word said He won't I believe it I recieve it I claim it It's mine No he'll never Put more on me Than I can bear Can bear
You don't have to worry And don't you be afraid Joy comes in the morning Troubles they don't last always For there's a friend in Jesus Who will wipe your tears away And if your heart is broken Just lift your hands and say
Oh I know that I can make it I know that I can stand No matter what may come my way My life is in your hands
With Jesus I can take it With Him I know I can stand No matter what may come my way My life is in your hands
So when your tests and trials They seem to get you down And all your friends and loved ones Are nowhere to be found Remember there's a friend in Jesus Who will wipe your tears away And if you heart is broken Just lift your hands and say
Oh I know that I can make it I know that I can stand No matter what may come my way My life is in your hands
With Jesus I can take it With Him I know I can stand No matter what may come my way My life is in your hands
Silver and gold Silver and gold I'd rather have Jesus than silver and gold No fame or fortune Nor riches untold I'd rather have Jesus than silver and gold
Don't give me a mansion on top of the hill Don't give me the world with a shallow thrill But just give me a saviour My life He can hold I'd rather have Jesus than silver and gold
I woke up this morning Feeling kind of down I called on my best friend She could not be found But I called on Jesus My life He can hold I'd rather have Jesus than silver and gold
For unto us a child is born A son is given I'd rather have Jesus What profits a man to gain the whole world and loose His soul I'd rather have Jesus For there's no other name given under heaven Whereby we must be saved I'd rather have Jesus He's the only one that can save you I'd rather have Jesus than siver and gold
May His peace be with you till we meet again May His peace be with you till we meet again Till we reach that distant shore And we'll shed a tear no more May He give you strength to endure Till we meet again
May His love be with you till we meet again May His love be with you till we meet again Till we reach that promised land And we'll walk hand in hand May He give you strength to stand Till we meet again
Up above my head I hear music in the air Up above my head there's a melody so bright And fair I can hear when I'm all alone Even in those times when I feel all hope is gone Up above my head I hear joybells ringing Up above my head I hear angels singing There must be a God somewhere There must be a God somewhere
I hear music in the air I hear music everywhere There must be a God somewhere
There must be a God somewhere There must be a God somewhere There must be a God somewhere
Fill me with your joy so new So I can show my love for You This joy I have is real and true For all my sins are washed away Yes all my sins are washed away
The pain I felt so deep inside The tears I could no longer hide There's joy now cause' You're by my side Yes all my sins are washed away Yes all my sins are washed away
Washed away Gone astray
For all my sins are washed away Yes all my sins are washed away
Where the Spirit of the Lord is There is liberty Where the Spirit of the Lord is The captives are set free The wounded are made whole
I'll find rest for my soul Where the Spirit is There is liberty
Where the Spirit is Where the Spirit is Where the Spirit is There is liberty
Where the Spirit of the Lord is There is liberty Where the Spirit of the Lord is The captives are set free The wounded are made whole There is rest for your soul Where the Spirit is There is liberty
Where the Spirit is There is healing Where the Spirit is There is deliverance Where the Spirit is There is joy
Don't take your joy away Don't take your joy away I know that I have done wrong But I'm asking You as I sing this song Don't take your joy away
Don't take it I can't make it I've tried it I can't live without it
Restore unto me the joy of my salvation Make me Jesus a new creation Shake me and make me Hold me and mold me Choose me and use me Chastise me Revive me
