There's a little dive on a dead-end road Called the Cross-Eyed Cricket Waterin' Hole Where you can hear the sound of a steel guitar An' get loud, an' rowdy on PBR But at the top of every hour Man, you can hear a pin drop As ol' Jack drops in a quarter An' plays Merle on that jukebox, an' we stop An' tip our hats, an' raise our glasses of cold, cold beer They say, country's fadin' but we're still wavin' that flag 'round here When it's time to go, you know you're welcome back Where the people pledge allegiance to the Hag When the weekend comes an' the weather's clear There's a high spot fifteen miles from here Where you can always find a few dusty trucks With the windows down an' the radio up We sit there poppin' tops Shootin' bull an' singin' songs But you can bet your boots That when Haggard comes on We tip our hats an' raise our glasses of cold, cold beer They say, country's fadin' but we're still wavin' that flag around here When it's time to go, you know you're welcome back Where the people pledge allegiance to the Hag One of these days when my time has come You can take me back to where I'm from Put me on a westbound train An' ship me off in the pourin' rain Don't cry for me when I'm gone Just put a quarter in the jukebox An' sing me back home An' tip your hats, an' raise your glasses of cold, cold beer They say, country's fadin' but just keep wavin' that flag around here An' I know, it'll keep on comin' back long as people pledge allegiance Where folks still pledge allegiance, I pledge allegiance to the Hag

I dreamed I went to heaven And you were there with me We walked upon the streets of gold Beside the crystal sea We heard the angels singing Then someone called your name You turned and saw this young man And he was smiling as he came And he said friend you may not know me now And then he said but wait You used to teach my Sunday School When I was only eight And every week you would say a prayer Before the class would start And one day when you said that prayer I asked Jesus in my heart Thank you for giving to the Lord I am a life that was changed Thank you for giving to the Lord I am so glad you gave Then another man stood before you And said remember the time A missionary came to your church And his pictures made you cry You didn't have much money But you gave it anyway Jesus took the gift you gave And that's why I'm here today Thank you for giving to the Lord I am a life that was changed Thank you for giving to the Lord I am so glad you gave One by one they came Far as the eyes could see Each life somehow touched By your generosity Little things that you had done Sacrifices made Unnoticed on the earth In heaven now proclaimed And I know that up in heaven You're not supposed to cry But I am almost sure There were tears in your eyes As Jesus took your hand And you stood before the Lord He said, my child look around you For great is your reward Thank you for giving to the Lord I am a life that was changed Thank you for giving to the Lord I am so glad you gave Thank you for giving to the Lord I am a life that was changed Thank you for giving to the Lord I am so glad you gave I am so glad you gave...

They tell me Jesus died for my transgressions That He paid that price a long, long time ago When He gave His life for me on a hill called Calvary But there's something else I want to know Does He still feel the nails Every time I fail? Can He hear the crowd cry, "Crucify" again? Am I causing Him pain? Then I know I've got to change I just can't bear the thought of hurting Him It seems that I'm so good at breaking promises And I treat His precious grace so carelessly But each time He forgives what if He re-lives The agony He felt on that tree? Does He still feel the nails Every time I fail? Does He hear the crowd cry, "Crucify" again? Am I causing Him pain? Then I know I've got to change 'Cause I just can't bear the thought of hurting Him Holy, holy Holy, is the Lord Holy, holy Holy, is the Lord Do You still feel the nails Every time I fail? Have I crucified You Jesus with my sins? Oh, I'm tired of playing games I really want to change I never want to hurt You again Holy, holy Holy, is the Lord Holy, holy Holy, is the Lord

Walking On the Road To Jerusalem, The time had come to sacrifice, Again. My two small sons, They walked beside me down the road, The reason that they came, Was to watch the lamb. "Daddy daddy, What will we see there? There's so much that we don't understand," So I told them of Moses, And Father Abraham, And then I said dear children, "Watch the lamb. There will be so many, In Jerusalem today, We must be sure the lamb Doesn't run away," And I told them of Moses, And Father Abraham, And I said "Dear children, Watch the lamb." When we reached the city, I knew something must be wrong, There were no joyful worshippers No joyful worship songs. I stood there, With my children, In the midst of angry men, Then I heard the crowd cry out, "Crucify Him!" We tried to leave the city, But we could not get away. Forced to play in this drama, A part I did not wish to play, Why upon this day were men condemned to die? Why were we all standing here, When soon they would pass by? I looked and said, "Even now they come," The first one pleaded for mercy, The people gave him none. The second one was violent, He was arrogant and loud, I can still hear his angry voice, Screaming at the crowd. Then someone said, "There's Jesus," I scarce believed my eyes, A man so badly beaten, He barely looked alive. Blood poured from His body, From the thorns on His brow, Running down the cross, And falling to the ground. I watched as He struggled, I watched Him as He fell, The cross came down upon His back, And the crowd began to yell. In that moment I felt such agony, In that moment I felt such loss, Till the roman soldier grabbed my arm and screamed, "YOU! Carry his cross!" At first I tried to resist him, But his hand reached for his sword, So I knelt and I took The cross from the Lord. I put it on my shoulders And started down the street The blood that He'd been shedding, Was running down my cheek. They led us to Golgatha They drove nails, Deep in His feet and hands. And on the cross, I heard him pray, "Father, forgive them..." Never have I seen such love In any other eyes "Into thy hands I commit my spirit," He prayed, And then He died. I stood for what seemed like years, I lost all sense of time, Until I felt two tiny hands Holding tight to mine. My children stood there weeping, And I heard the oldest say "Father please forgive us, The lamb, Ran away. Daddy daddy, What've we seen here, There's so much that we don't understand," So I took them in my arms, We turned and faced the cross. And I said, "Dear children Watch the lamb."

I have journeyed Through the long, dark night Out on the open sea By faith alone Sight unknown And yet His eyes were watching me The anchor holds Though the ship is battered The anchor holds Though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees As I faced the raging seas The anchor holds In spite of the storm I've had visions I've had dreams I've even held them in my hand But I never knew They would slip right through Like they were only grains of sand The anchor holds Though the ship is battered The anchor holds Though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees As I faced the raging seas The anchor holds In spite of the storm I have been young But I am older now And there has been beauty That these eyes have seen But it was in the night Through the storms of my life Oh, that's where God proved His love to me The anchor holds Though the ship is battered The anchor holds Though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees As I faced the raging seas The anchor holds In spite of the storm I have fallen on my knees As I faced the raging seas The anchor holds In spite of the storm

Sometimes I wake up in the morning To red, blue, and yellow skies It's so crazy I could drink it like tequila sunrise Put on that Hotel California Dance around like I'm insane I feel free when I see no one And nobody knows my name God knows I live God knows I died God knows I begged Begged, borrowed and cried God knows I loved God know I lied God knows I lost God gave me life And God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried Sometimes I wake up in the morning To red, blue and yellow lights On Monday they destroyed me But by Friday I'm revived Put on that hotel California Wear my blinders in the rain I've got nothing much to live for Ever since I found my fame God knows I live God knows I died God knows I loved God knows I lied God knows I begged Begged, borrowed and cried God knows I lost God gave me life God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried So let there be light Let there be light Light up my life Light up my life Let there be light Let there be light Light up my life Light up my life God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried

I have journeyed through the long dark night Out on the open sea By faith alone, sight unknown And yet His eyes are watching me The anchor holds, though the ship is battered The anchor holds, though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas But the anchor holds, in spite of the storm. I've had visions and I've had dreams I've even held them in my hands But I never knew they would slip right through Like they were only grains of sand The anchor holds, though the ship is battered The anchor holds, though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas But the anchor holds, in spite of the storm. I have been young, but I am older now There has been beauty these eyes have seen But it was in the night, through the storms of my life Oh that's when God proved his love to me The anchor holds, though the ship's been battered The anchor holds, though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas But the anchor holds, in spite of the storm. I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas But the anchor holds (the anchor holds) In spite of the storm.
