SONG THREE:
MIRACLES WILL HAPPEN ON THAT DAY
Key of: F
VERSE 1
BACK IN THE LONG, LONG AGO, THERE WERE THREE MEN WE ALL KNOW,
THEIR NAMES WERE SHADRACH, MECSHACH, AND ABEDNEGO.
THE KING GAVE ORDERS, WE'RE TOLD, TO WORSHIP IDOLS OF GOLD,
OR IN THE FIREY FURNACE THEY'D GO.
WHEN THEY REFUSED TO KNEEL DOWN,
THEIR HANDS AND FEET THEY WERE BOUND.
THE KING SAID, WHILE YOU'RE BURNING, SHOW ME GOD IS IN TOWN.
AND WHEN HE LOOKED IN TO SEE, THEIR HANDS AND FEET THEY WERE FREE,
AND THERE WERE FOUR OF THEM WALKING AROUND.
CHORUS
THE THINGS YOU SEE EVERY DAY, THEY DON'T JUST HAPPEN THAT WAY,
OH, IT'S A MIRACLE AGE.
THE BIBLE SAID LONG AGO, THESE THINGS WOULD HAPPEN YOU KNOW,
GOD'S JUST TURNING THE PAGE.
IF YOU'LL JUST KNEEL DOWN AND PRAY, LET JESUS SAVE YOU TODAY,
IN HIS MIRACLE WAY.
THEN WHEN THE TRUMPET SHALL SOUND, THE DEAD SHALL RISE FROM THE GROUND.
MIRACLES WILL HAPPEN ON THAT DAY.
VERSE 2
THE STRONGEST MAN IN THE WORLD, HE WAS BETRAYED BY A GIRL.
OLE SAMSON PLACED HIS CONFIDENCE IN THINGS OF THIS WORLD.
DELILAH FOUND HIM ASLEEP, AND CLOSE UPON HIM DID CREEP,
HIS HEAD WAS SHAVED AND LEFT HIM SO WEAK.
BUT ONCE AGAIN IT GREW LONG, AND ONCE AGAIN HE GREW STRONG.
HE BROKE THE BONDS OF EVIL THAT HAD BOUND HIM SO LONG.
HE REACHED THE TEMPLE ONE DAY AND PULLED THE PILLARS AWAY,
AND THEN THE WALLS THEY CAME TUMBLING
DOWN.
CHORUS
THE THINGS YOU SEE EVERY DAY, THEY DON'T JUST HAPPEN THAT WAY,
OH, IT'S A MIRACLE AGE.
THE BIBLE SAID LONG AGO, THESE THINGS WOULD HAPPEN YOU KNOW,
GOD'S JUST TURNING THE PAGE.
IF YOU'LL JUST KNEEL DOWN AND PRAY, LET JESUS SAVE YOU TODAY,
IN HIS MIRACLE WAY.
THEN WHEN THE TRUMPET SHALL SOUND, THE DEAD SHALL RISE FROM THE GROUND.
MIRACLES WILL HAPPEN ON THAT
DAY.
SONG FOUR:
UNTIL YOU FIND THE LORD
Key of: C
VERSE 1
EVERYONE WANTS TO BE HAPPY, EVERYONE WANTS TO BE FREE.
EVERYONE WANTS TO BE SOMEONE, ON THIS WE CAN ALL AGREE.
HOW CAN I EVER BE HAPPY, HOW CAN I EVER BE FREE?
I ASK MYSELF THIS QUESTION, AND A VOICE KEEPS CALLING TO ME.
BRIDGE
YOU'LL NEVER FIND, COMPLETE PEACE OF MIND,
IN THIS OLD WORLD, UNTIL YOU FIND THE LORD.
YOU'LL NEVER BE, COMPLETELY SET FREE,
IN THIS OLD WORLD, UNTIL YOU FIND THE LORD.
CHORUS
ALTHOUGH YOU MAY HAVE RICHES AND POWER AT YOUR CONTROL,
THERE'LL ALWAYS BE SOMETHING MISSING, WAY DOWN DEEP IN YOUR SOUL.
YOU'LL NEVER POSSESS, COMPLETE HAPPINESS,
IN THIS OLD WORLD, UNTIL YOU FIND THE LORD.
CHORUS
ALTHOUGH YOU MAY HAVE RICHES AND POWER AT YOUR CONTROL,
THERE'LL ALWAYS BE SOMETHING MISSING, WAY DOWN DEEP IN YOUR SOUL.
YOU'LL NEVER POSSESS COMPLETE HAPPINESS,

LORD.

VERSE 1
WELL, MY TIME IS SHORT, MY WAY IS NARROW, A HEAVY CROSS, I HAVE TO CARRY,
SOMETIMES I STUMBLE UNDER MY LOAD OF CARE.

ON THAT MORNING BRIGHT AND FAIR.
WE WILL ALL BE GATHERED ON THE OTHER SIDE OF JORDAN,
AND MY JESUS WILL BE THERE.

THIS LIFE,
AND ALL ABOUT THEIR EVERY CARE.

WITH THE SAINTS ALL GATHERED THERE.

TWILL BE JOY FOREVER THERE.

SONG EIGHT:
HOW BIG IS GOD
Key of: Ab

THE OPEN SKY IS BUT A PORTION OF HIS YARD.

TO TRY TO TELL THESE LIPS CAN ONLY START.
HE'S BIG ENOUGH TO RULE THE MIGHTY UNIVERSE,
YET SMALL ENOUGH TO LIVE WITHIN MY HEART.
