1.Exalt His “Holy” Name 8:10
(Psalm 34/ The Salvation Band)
At all times I will bless Him, His praise shall be in my mouth, my soul makes it’s boast in the Lord. The humble man will hear of Him, the afflicted will be glad,
and join with me to magnify the Lord.
I sought the Lord, He heard me and delivered me from my fears. Let us exalt His name together, let’s exalt His name. Exalt His name. I sing praises to my Lord.
The Angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear His name
to save them and deliver them from harm. Though lions roar from hunger,
well, I lack for no hunger, well we praise Him with our song,
Exalt His name
Come children now and hear me,… if you would seek long life. Just keep your lips from wickedness and lies. Do good and turn from evil, seek peace instead of strife.
Love righteousness, love righteousness.
2. Cross Roads 3:03
(Ephesians 2:8-9 /Robert Johnson/ The Salvation Band)
I went down to the Cross Roads, I fell down on my knees.
I asked the Lord above for mercy,…save me if You please.
You can run you can run, spread the news all around
The Devil had a hold of me, but my Lord He set me free
You saved me Lord, yes you lifted me up, you took me home
I thank You for Your mercy Lord, for savin' me
I went down to the Cross Roads, I fell down on my knees
Well I thank You Lord above, for saving, for saving me.
3. Born Again 9:22
(John 3:3-5/ The Salvation Band )
Silent whisper in the night, like the wind flyin’ by.
You must be born again of The Spirit if you want to enter the kingdom of heaven.
Like the wind we don’t know where it’s gone and where it’s been. Renewal of your mind.
We will seek out the questions, and seek for the answers that needs to be found.
God created heaven and earth. Adam and Eve fell to the ground and sinned. We inherited the sin from Adam and Eve, and we needed a Savior, Redeemer of mankind to come into this earth to save us from hell. Yes it’s a price to be paid.
You must be born again of the Spirit and die to your flesh if you want to enter the kingdom of heaven. Born Again,… I’m Born Again.
Silent whisper in the night, like the wind flyin’ by.
You must be born again of The Spirit and die to the flesh if you want to enter the kingdom of heaven. It’s renewal of your mind. It’s what you need to put behind, a new creature in Christ my Lord. Everything will be a different, the story; you die to your flesh, and you’re born of The Spirit, renewal of your mind.
You must be born again, oh born again. You must be born again of The Spirit and die to your flesh, born again,….I’m born again.
Silent whisper in the night. It’s God’s Holy Spirit,…don’t be afraid,…it’s what you need to be saved,….and you will be born again.
4. Tear This “Old” House Down 8:43
(Ephesians 4:17-5:21/Batteau, Brown, Soul Mission/The Salvation Band)
I had the power, I had the fame, I had the beauty, I played the game
Well God had another plan for me, child you’re my disciple, it’s time for things to change
In my self pity, I nearly died, I said why me Lord, why,why,why ?
He said; “work means nothing, it’s a dyin’ flame”, you’re my child He said, cause God had another plan for me, child you’re my apostle and it’s time for things to change
We’re gonna tear this “old” house down, gonna blow this roof up. Tear this house down, gonna kick the old out, tear this house down. My Lord, He’s had enough, tear this house down, He’s got His mind set. Tear this house down, To dig some new ground, but first He’s gonna go and tear this house down.

7. Accuse God ? 3:32
(Romans 5:8/ Elmore James/ The Salvation Band)
Before you accuse God, take a good look at yourself
While you’ve been messin’ around, Christ died for your sins.
Don’t blame God for what you do to yourself
While you’ve been blaming God, He keeps loving you just the same
I talked to my Lord, just the other day
I was down on my knees, asking Him for mercy upon you please
Before you accuse God, take a good look at yourself
While you’ve been blaming God, He died for your sins.
8. Pray 7:21
(James 4:3, 5:13-18/ ….?…./ The Salvation Band)
I got up early one morning, and rushed right into the day
Well I had so much to accomplish that I didn’t have time to pray.
Problems just tumbled about me, and heavier came each of the tasks
Well why doesn’t God help me ? I wondered. Heh ! He answered;
“You didn’t ask, you didn’t ask, no,no you didn’t ask”.
You didn’t pray, you didn’t seek, you didn’t knock
Well I wonder why God didn’t show me, He said; “you didn’t seek”,…
Oh Lord ! I wanna seek,…oh yeeeah !
I tried to come into God’s presence, well I used all the keys at the lock
God gently and lovingly chided; “oh My child,… you didn’t knock”
Well I woke up early this morning,
and paused before entering into the day
Well I had so much to accomplish,
that I simply had to get down on my knees, and
PRAY !

Lord take these guns into the ground, cause I can’t shoot them anymore
I , see the light, now that I’m free, because what Jesus did to me

(Batteau, Brown, Chesser/Soul Mission/The Salvation Band)
God, so loved the world, that means you, and that means me
Or haven’t you heard, so listen up! There’s a tale to tell
About some men of faith, who went through living hell
For the Son of God, and the price He paid
And not a church, and not a man, could stand in their way
On a Cross of Stone, on a Cross of hope where their story is written
On a Cross of Stone
God’s great commission they we’re given, to wake up the world !
Don’t hesitate, make no excuse, don’t let the devil imprison what God has loosed
Well, a might sword lies in your hands ( The Sword of the Spirit, The Bible )
Now raise it up, like those before, upon the rock they stand
On a Cross of stone, on a Cross of hope, God’s great commission they were given to wake up the world. It’s time to wake up the world, wake up the world.
Pray, pray, pray, pray, pray ! for a piece of that fire
To be lead by the word the Lord so inspired, Don’t hesitate, make no excuse, don’t let the devil imprison what God has loosed, no, no, no, what God has loosed
Well, a might sword lies in your hand, now raise it up !
Like those before, upon the rock they stand
On a Cross of Stone
God,…so loved the world,…that He gave His only, one and only, begotten Son
To die for you and me,… WAKE UP !!!!!
6. He set me free 5:33
( Galatians 5:1, Numbers 12:1-11 / Doyle/The Salvation Band)
I was down on myself both day and night, prayin’ for things to go just right
I was hangin’ by my thumbs and slippin’ on my feet.
I had to take a break I couldn’t stand the heat
Just when I thought He won’t listen to me, He answered my prayers and set me free
I went to my church last night again, to get myself refocused and tuned in
I was sittin’ in the pews in the balcony, when a vision of the Lord came over me
Just when I thought He don’t listen to me, He answered my prayers and set me free
I tried so hard to get back in the race, I’ll just be satisfied if I could place
There’s so much competition but it doesn’t bother me, He answered my prayers
I opened my Bible and read a few verses, one about faith it was about Moses
Well I guess you know by now that I’m a Christian living my life in the Spirit of the Lord
Just when I thought He won’t listen to me, He answered my prayers and set me free
I go out on the streets both day and night, I preach the good news about JESUS CHRIST
I’m talkin’ to sinners about eternal life, I say; “here’s your choice Salvation is free !”
Just when I thought they don’t listen to me,…He answered my prayers and set them free
He answered my prayers and He set me free
7. Humbuggin’ me 5:05
( 1.John 4:7 / Johnny Winter / The Salvation Band )
You say I haven’t been around, the way I dress is a sin
I’ve been further back under the house, than you never been
You’re humbuggin' me babe, you’re humbuggin’ me
I believe I was tryin’, now you’re humbuggin’ me
You told me darlin’ you love me, you’d go through fire and pain
Last week you wrote me a letter, it said; “I’ll see you if it don’t rain”
You’re humbuggin’ me babe, you’re humbuggin' me
I believe I was tryin’, now you’re humbuggin’ me
When I married you darlin’, you told me that you knew how to cook
You promised me a chicken and pork roast, you gave me sour milk and
Burnt toast !!!,… now that’s a lie,… and a sin,…
You’re humbuggin’ me babe, you’re humbuggin’ me
I believe I was tryin’ now you’re humbuggin’ me
You know I still love you darlin’ no matter what you say and do
Last night I prayed to my Lord, He said to love you, just like I (God ) do !
Stop humbuggin' me babe, ( please )stop humbuggin' me
I’ll keep on tryin’ darlin, please stop humbuggin’ me
8. Help me Jesus 5:48
( John 15:5 / Robin Trower/ The Salvation Band )
When I get up in the morning, when I get up at night I need to know what to do Lord
This doesn’t feel right, Cause I need a guiding hand, I waiting for Your command
I wanna feel the Holy Spirit, I wanna be taken right, I wanna tell people about You
Yes ! that’s what I like, Come on Jesus, I need Your helping hand.
The Bible tells me, how I can’t do it on my own
You got to help, help me Jesus, oh ! help, help me Jesus, oh help me
Oh Lord help me, You gotta help me Lord Jesus
Cause I can’t do it on my own, oh yeah, help me
Oh lift your vision higher, than you’ve seen before
Lift your vision higher, and you’ll see the Lord
Lift you vision higher,..look to the sky
They’ve (SRV) been singing that “the sky is crying”
No ! it’s just God showering our lives
When God rolls up His sleeves, He ain’t kiddin’ when God is awesome
He ain’t foolin’ around, He’s our God. You better believe He’s our God
Our God is an awesome God, oh yeah He’s our God !
You gotta help me Jesus
He kicked them ( Adam & Eve ) out of Eden, our God said go by
It was for a reason that He ( Jesus ) shed His blood, His return is very close
You better be ready, Our God is an awesome God, an honest & awesome God
You better look up to the sky, and keep a good eye, He will be back ( Acts 1:11 )
Our God is an awesome God, He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom power and love, my God is an awesome God
I can’t go it on my own, I need the strength of the Holy Power
Help, help me Jesus, You gotta help me Lord Jesus, I can’t do it on my own
9. Let’s Exalt His Holy Name (part two) 7:11
(Psalm 34/ The Salvation band)
Somewhat the same lyrics as the other take on CD # 1, yet as we are jammin’ for Jesus the same song never comes out the same twice,…still we exalt the Holy name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and give all glory to our awesome God !
While in studio trying to do the EQ- mix of this music the engineer James Powelson said something that stuck with me;
“Here’s a revelation of musicians nightmare for the truth to be known about all that “stuff” normally edited out on most recordings,…through a great selection of high energy songs glorifying our Lord”
PLAY IT LOUD !!
