| 1> Shut The Door (Randy Stonehill) Shut the door, keep out the devil, Shut the door, keep the devil in the night Shut the door, keep out the devil, Light the candle evr'rythin's alright Oh when I was a baby child, good and bad was just a game. Many years and many trials they proved to me they're not the same Shut the door, keep out the devil, Shut the door, keep the devil in the night Shut the door, keep out the devil, Light the candle evr'rythin's alright Oh Satan is an evil charmer. He's hungry for your soul to hurt. And without your holy armor he will eat you for dessert! Shut the door, keep out the devil, Shut the door, keep the devil in the night Shut the door, keep out the devil, Light the candle evr'rythin's alright Say der hey, hey, hey, shut the door Hey, hey, hey, keep out the devil, You better shut it, Say a prayer he won't be back no more. My mama used to sing this song, Papa used to sing it too. Jesus called and took them home, and so I sing this song for you. Shut the door, keep out the devil, Shut the door, keep the devil in the night Shut the door, keep out the devil, Light the candle evr'rythin's alright. Top

| 2> The River Is Here (Andy Park) Down the mountain the river flows, And it brings refreshing wherever it goes. Through the valleys and over the fields, The river is rushing and the river is here. The river of God sets our feet a-dancing, The river of God fills our hearts with cheer, The river of God fills our mouth with laughter, And we rejoice for the river is here. The river of God is teeming with life, And all who touch it can be revived, And those who linger on this river's shore, Will come back thirsting for more of the Lord So up the mountain we love to go, To find the presence of the Lord, Along the banks of the river we run, We dance with laughter, giving praise to the Son.

| 3> Mary's Son (Fields/R. Flansburg) Did we ever sing of the Infant God Who made His mother's wonder wide? The Child she bore would save the world. He made His mother's wonder wide. Did we ever sing of Mary's boy Who left His mother worried sick? He had to go to teach the priests. He left his mother worried sick. Did we ever sing of the Son of God Whose mother's face was helpless grief When she saw Him heave the cross again? His mother's face was helpless grief. Did we ever sing of the Risen Lord Who turned his mother's tears to joy? The Child she bore had saved the world! The turned His mother's tears to joy. Top

Dawson) I got a crown up in-a the kingdom, Ain'-a that good news, I'm a-goin' to lay down this worl', goin' to shoulder up-uh my cross, Goin'-a take it home-a to my Jesus, Ain'-a that good news. I got a harp up in-a the kingdom, Ain'-a that good news, I'm a-goin' to lay down this worl', goin' to shoulder up-uh my cross, Goin'-a take it home-a to my Jesus, Ain'-a that good news. I got a robe up in-a the kingdom, Ain'-a that good news, I'm a-goin' to lay down this worl', goin' to shoulder up-uh my cross, Goin'-a take it home-a to my Jesus, Ain'-a that good news. Good news, my Lord, Ain'-a that good news! Top

| 5> FLATTIRE FREEWAY (Maniscalco/Veras) I dreamed of a green garden In this skyscraper forest that lets nothing new grow The fresh water showers dry weeds into flowers And sprinkles on seedlings unknown I longed just for one true story In this wastepaper playground only tall tales get told Give me news to delight me, and words to invite me To watch the way real life unfolds My hope needs mendin' but my need is unbendin' My wantin' don't ever get cold I can't help wishin' while guitar strings keep fishin' For a tune that will never get old I looked for another wonder In this highwire circus where no risk is too bold Keep your clowns and your lions, let the trapeze keep flyin' But give my heart something to hold Will destiny come to greet me On this flattire freeway where nobody gets home? The rest stops don't feed me, the maps never lead me To a face that replaces alone Top

It winds from Chicago to LA, more than two thousand miles all the way. Get your kicks on Route sixty-six. Now you go through Saint Louis, Joplin, Missouri And Oklahoma City looks mighty pretty. You see Amarillo,Gallup, New Mexico, Flagstaff Arizona. Don't forget Winona, Kingman, Barstow, San Bernandino. Won't you get hip to this timely tip, When you make that California trip Get your kicks on Route sixty-six. Won't you get hip to this timely tip: when you make that California trip Get your kicks on Route sixty-six. Get your kicks on Route sixty-six. Get your kicks on Route sixty-six. Top

| 7> Hello, Hello (Cas Patrick) From across three thousand miles you came ashore, Did you know what was in store? Had you hoped for anything more? Suddenly in front of me a face appeared, a vision perfectly clear. Could something so near be so dear? Hello, hello, Who are you? How do you do? There was nothing special in the time and place, But nonetheless came a grace, a certain look on your face. Through it all I still recall the way you smiled, A smile that could beguile me to want to stay for more Than just a little while I'm trying to grasp the situation, It's like the train come to the station right on time. Do you feel you may be staying? Because I almost feel like saying: "Will you be mine?" Looking now on how the story was begun, did you know what was to come? Did you think I was the one? Looking now and how our feelings first were stirred it almost seems absurd That both our lives could change with just a single word, Hello, hello … Top

| 9> I Am A Pilgrim (traditional) I am a pilgrim, and a stranger, Wandering through this wearisome land. I have a home in that yonder city, Good Lord, and it's not made by hand I have a mother, a sister and a brother, Who have gone to that sweet land, I am determined to go and see them, All over on that distant shore As I walk down the River Jordan Just to bathe my weary soul, If I could touch but the hem of his garment Well, I believe it would make me whole Top

| 12> Nazareth Morning (Maniscalco/Veras) She breaks the darkness with a hope no one has seen Beneath her heart there grows a grace that has not been Nazareth Morning Has come to be The dawn that eyes have longed to see Carpenter's lady with a baby at her breast A humble court where kings and shepherds are her guests Nazareth Morning Bethlehem Star A light for people near and far Dawn grows to Day, Day comes to stay The dark of sin won't dim the way The darkness lied and tried to hide the day in death Yet in her cries there lies a hope in every breath Nazareth Morning Calvary Night, Can never stop the truth and light Another morning brings an unexpected light Another Mary sees an unexpected sight Nazareth Morning Rolls stones away No night can end this endless day Nazareth Morning Will always be The dawn that longs to set us free (3) Top

| 15> Americana (Vath/Veras) Somebody said one day the stars were gonna fall down, down, down. Nobody said I'd see the gleaming twilight fall down, down, down. Don't want to look up, at the blackened sky above me get up, when darkness lies around me. Show me the dawn. Show me I'm not alone. I'm gonna get goin' to meet my mother / I'm gonna get goin' to meet my father I'm gonna get goin' to meet my brother / I'm gonna get goin' to meet my Lord No one prepared me to know that the night was gonna fall round, round, round O how it scared me to see how fast the dark would crawl round, round, round I want to get out to a freedom that awaits me get out to a hope that still escapes me Show me the dawn. Show me I'm not alone. I'm gonna get goin' to meet my mother / I'm gonna get goin' to meet my father I'm gonna get goin' to meet my brother / I'm gonna get goin' to meet my Lord Thunder awake me to see the light that shines for all: sound! sound! sound! Lightning shake me to quake at freedom's thund'rous call: sound! sound! sound! I want to wake up, to a new hope that surrounds us wake up, to a freedom that is boundless I'll sing to the dawn, I'll know that I'm not alone. I'm gonna get goin' to meet my mother / I'm gonna get goin' to meet my father I'm gonna get goin' to meet my brother / I'm gonna get goin' to meet my sister I'm gonna get goin' to meet my children… I'm gonna get goin' to meet my Lord! (Who'll stop the pain; Call me by name) Send my roots rain! Rain! Top
