Revival Vol. II Lyrics

 

I'll Fly Away

 

Some glad morning when this life is o'er,
I'll fly away
To a home on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away

 
I'll fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away


When the shadows of this life have gone
I'll fly away
Like a bird from prison bars has flown,
I'll fly away

 
Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away
To a land where joy shall never end
I'll fly away

 

 

I Know Who Holds Tomorrow
(originally appeared on The Solid Gospel Sound of The Oak Ridge Quartet,
this is a newly recorded version.)

 

I don't know about tomorrow
I just live from day to day
I don't borrow from it's sunshine
For the skies may turn to gray


I don't worry o'er the future
For I know what Jesus said
And today I'll walk beside Him
For He knows what is ahead


Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand
But I know who holds tomorrow
And I know who holds my hand


I don't know about tomorrow
It may bring me poverty
But the one who feeds the sparrow
Is the one who stands by me


And the path that is my portion
May be through the flame or flood
But His presence, it goes before me
And I'm covered with all His blood

 

 

Swing Low/Sweet Chariot

 

Swing low sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home


I looked over Jordan
And what did I see
Comin' for to carry me home
A band of angels comin' after me
Comin' for to carry me home


If you get there before I do
Comin' for to carry me home
Tell all my friends I'm comin' to
Comin' for to carry me home


Why don't you swing down sweet chariot
Stop and let me ride
Swing down chariot
Stop and let me ride
Rock me lord, rock me lord
Calm and easy
Well I've got a home on the other side


Why don't you swing down sweet chariot
Stop and let me ride
Swing down chariot
Stop and let me ride
Rock me lord, rock me lord
Calm and easy
Well I've got a home on the other side


Ezekiel went down in the middle of a field
He saw an angel workin' on a chariot wheel
Now he wasn't so particular 'bout the chariot wheel
Just wanted to see how a chariot feel
 

Now Ezekiel went down and he got on board
The chariot went a bumpin' on down the road
He wasn't so particular 'bout the bumpin' of the road
Just wanted to lay down his heavy load

 

 

Precious Memories
(originally appeared on Singing The Gospel,
this is a newly recorded version.)

 

Precious memories, unseen angels
Sent from somewhere to my soul
How they linger ever near me
And the sacred past unfolds


Precious memories how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold


Precious father, loving mother
Fly across the lonely years
And old home scenes of my childhood
In fond memories appear


In the stillness of the midnight
Echoes from the past I hear
Old time singing and gladness ringing
From that lovely land somewhere


As I travel on life's pathway
Know not what the years may hold
As I ponder hope grows fonder
Precious memories flood my soul

 

 

I'm Feeling Mighty Fine

 

I woke up this morning feeling fine
I woke up with heaven on my mind
I woke up with joy in my soul
Cause I knew my Lord had control
Well I knew I was walkin' in the light
Cause I'd been on my knees in the night
And I prayed till the Lord gave a sign
And now I'm feeling mighty fine


Well I'm feeling mighty fine
I've got Heaven on my mind
Oh don't you know I want to go
Where the milk and honey flow
There's a light that always shines
Down inside this heart of mine
I've got Heaven on my mind
And I'm feeling mighty fine


I've been walking with Jesus all the time
We're walking and talking as we climb
We're traveling a road to the sky
Where I know I'll live when I die
He's been telling me all about that land
And he tells me that everything is grand
And He says that a home will be mine
And now I'm feeling mighty fine

 

 

Old Time Religion

 

Give me that old time religion, it's good enough for me

Makes me love everybody, it's good enough for me

It was good for Mom and Daddy, it's good enough for me

It was good for Paul and Silas, it's good enough for me

It was good for the Hebrew children, and it's good enough for me

It will save you when you're dying, it's good enough for me

It will take us all to Heaven, it's good enough for me

 

 

Amazing Grace
(originally appeared on Hymns,
this is a newly recorded version.)

 

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see


'Twas Grace that taught my heart to fear
And Grace, my fears relieved
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed


When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun


Yes, through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
But it was grace that brought me safe this far
And Grace will lead me home
Glory, Hallelujah

 

 

Where The Soul Never Dies
(originally appeared on Old Fashioned Down Home Hand Clappin Foot Stompin Southern Style Gospel Quartet Music,
this is a newly recorded version.)



To Canaan land, I'm on my way
Where the soul of man never dies
My darkest night will turn to day
Where the soul of man never dies


No sad farewells (There will be no sad farewells)
No tear dimmed eyes (There'll be no tear dimmed eyes)
Where all is joy (All is peace and joy and love)
And the soul never dies (Soul of man never dies)


A rose is blooming there for me
Where the soul of man never dies
And I shall live eternally
Where the soul of man never die


No sad farewells (There will be no sad farewells)
No tear dimmed eyes (There will be no tear dimmed eyes)
Where all is love (All is peace and joy and love)
And the soul never dies (Soul of man never dies)

 

 

The Old Rugged Cross
(originally appeared on Hymns,
this is a newly recorded version.)

 

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross
The emblem of suff’ring and shame
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain


So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it someday for a crown


To the old rugged cross I will ever be true
It's shame and reproach gladly bear
Then He’ll call me someday to my home far away
Where His glory forever I’ll share

 

 

Power In The Blood
(originally appeared on Hymns,
this is a newly recorded version.)



Would you be free from the burden of sin
There's pow'r in the blood, pow'r in the blood
Would you o'er evil a victory win
There's wonderful pow'r in the blood


There is pow'r, pow'r
Wonder working pow'r
In the blood of the Lamb
There is pow'r, pow'r
Wonder working pow'r
In the precious blood of the Lamb


Would you be free from your passion and pride
There's pow'r in the blood, pow'r in the blood
Come for a cleansing in Calvary's tide
There's wonderful pow'r in the blood


Would you be whiter, much whiter than snow
There's pow'r in the blood, pow'r in the blood
Sin stains are lost in the life giving flow
There's wonderful pow'r in the blood


Would you do service for Jesus your King
There's pow'r in the blood, pow'r in the blood
Would you live daily His praises to sing
There's wonderful pow'r in the blood

 

 

This Ole' House/When The Saints

 

This old house once knew my children
This old house once knew my wife
This old house was home and comfort as we fought the storms of life
This old house once rang with laughter
This old house heard many shouts
Now she trembles in the darkness when the lightning walks about


Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Ain't gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend the window pane
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm getting ready to meet the saints


This old house is getting shaky
This old house is getting old
This old house lets in the rain
This old house lets in the cold
On my knees I'm getting chilly
But I feel no fear or pain
'Cause I see an angel peeking through
A broken window pane


My old hound dog lies a-sleeping
He don't know I'm gonna leave
Else he'd wake up by the fireplace
He'd just sit there and howl and grieve
But my hunting days are over
Ain't gonna hunt the 'coon no more
Gabriel done brought in chariot
When the wind blew down the door


When the Saints go marching in
Oh when the Saints go marching in
Oh Lord I want to be in that number
When the Saints go marching in

 

 

How Great Thou Art
(originally appeared on At Their Best,
this is a newly recorded version.)

 

O Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the world Thy Hand hath made
I see the stars and I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed


Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art


When Christ shall come
With shouts of acclamation
To take me home
What joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow
In humble adoration
And there proclaim
"My God, how great Thou art!"

 

 

Have A Little Talk With Jesus
(originally appeared on Live,
this is a newly recorded version.)



I once was lost in sin but Jesus took me in
And then a little light from Heaven fill my soul
It bathed my heart in love and He wrote my name above
And just a little talk with Jesus makes me whole


(Now let us) have a little talk with Jesus
(Let us) tell him all about our troubles
(He will) hear our faintest cry
(And He will) answer by and by
(Now when you) feel a little prayer wheel turnin'
(Lord you) know a little fire is burnin'
(You will) find a little talk with Jesus makes it right



I may have doubts and fears, my eyes be filled with tears
But Jesus is a friend who watches day and night
I go to him in prayer He knows my every care
And just a little talk with my Jesus makes it right
