“Traveling on the Spiritual Highway” (Song)

“Traveling on the Spiritual Highway”

As I wander on this road of faith, I stumble and I fall

I travel fast ahead of you and often hit a wall

Please help me Lord to wait on you and to let you lead the way

I’ll reach my destination soon if I trust you Lord and pray

Chorus

Jesus come and pour your love upon my heart today

Flood my soul with all you have this dear Lord is what I pray

Fill me with your Spirit Lord and keep me close to thee

Lay your hand upon my life direct me Lord where I should be

I’m on a Spiritual highway Lord and I’m looking for a sign

To guide me on the road of life to do your will not mine

Sometimes, I take an exit Lord which leads me far away

I get involved in things I shouldn’t lost and led astray

Chorus

Jesus come and pour your love upon my heart today

Flood my soul with all you have this dear Lord is what I pray

Fill me with your Spirit Lord and keep me close to thee

Lay your hand upon my life direct me Lord where I should be

  

I’ve taken many roads in life got lost along the way

Especially when I’m in a rush and I forget to pray

I think it’s time that I slowed down and give you Lord my soul

I’ll let you have my life today take complete control

Chorus

Jesus come and pour your love upon my heart today

Flood my soul with all you have this dear Lord is what I pray

Fill me with your Spirit Lord and keep me close to thee

Lay your hand upon my life direct me Lord where I should be

“Would you take the nails into your hands” (Song)

“Would you take the nails into your hands”

O’ Jesus O’ Jesus you mean the world to me

You came to die on Calvary that I would be set free

God sent His precious Son to earth before it was too late

You came to shed your blood dear lord your love for us so great

Chorus

Would you put yourself upon that cross for all the world to see?

To take the pain for all their sin for all humanity

Would you take the nails into your hands?

A sword thrust in your side

And shed your blood on Calvary where the saviour bled and died

O’ Jesus O’ Jesus you left your Heavenly throne

You came as a stranger Lord and you were all alone

You were born of a virgin Lord and this we know is true

The one and only sacrifice He was sent for me and you

Chorus

Would I put myself upon that cross for all the world to see?

Would I take their pain and all their sin like Jesus did for me?

Would I take the nails into my hands a sword thrust in my side?

And shed my blood on Calvary where my saviour bled and died

(Main chorus)

Would you put yourself upon that cross for all the world to see?

To take the pain for all their sin for all humanity

Would you take the nails into your hands?

A sword thrust in your side

And shed your blood on Calvary where the saviour bled and died

"Tender Mercies" (Song)

"Tender Mercies"

I’m a wanderer a transient, trying to find my way

I’m going in the wrong direction; I’m trying not to stray

You see dear Lord I’m feelin’ lost got off the beatin’ track

Help me Lord and guide my feet help me Lord come back

Chorus

Tender mercies Tender mercies they’re flowing down to me

I feel your presence in my heart it’s evident to see

The loving warmth comes from your heart it dwells inside my soul

Take my life and use me Lord Take complete control

The anxious thoughts come through my mind I think they’re here to stay

I’ve tried so hard to rid them all it helps me when I pray

The torment dwells to make me feel how low that I can be

Help me Lord please clean my mind please help to set me free

Chorus

Tender mercies Tender mercies they’re flowing down to me

I feel your presence in my heart it’s evident to see

The loving warmth comes from your heart it dwells inside my soul

Take my life and use me Lord Take complete control

"Sitting under the neon sign" (Song)

“Sitting under the neon sign”

Staying at home was all I had; I always thought that it stunk

So I thought I’d take a hike and leave, and I got really drunk

I was glad to get away from my old man; all he ever did was moan

I said I can’t handle it anymore; I’m going out on my own

I was sitting in the café all alone; wasn’t much of a thrill

I lifted my head and looked across, I saw a beautiful girl

She looked at me and gave a smile, and then a little wave

I was going to head over and talk to her, but I just wasn’t just that brave 

        

 

Chorus

Here I am in the big bright city under the neon sign

It tells me now what life’s about that everything will be just fine

It sends a message to my soul you have to keep pushing on

I’m sitting under the neon sign not knowing what’s going on

I’m sitting under the neon sign trying to snort some coke

Not the kind that you drink, but the one that makes you boke

I’m flyin’ high as a kite, my head’s just a spinnin’ round

I know that I’m not in control I’m gonna’ hit the ground

I thought that smoking, drink and drugs was the way to go

But when I’m finished and all shot up, I feel worse than before

 The neon sign told me so that life was so much fun

But ever since I’ve touched the stuff I’m always on the run

         

Chorus

Here I am in the big bright city under the neon sign

It tells me now what life’s about that everything will be just fine

It sends a message to my soul you have to keep pushing on

I’m sitting under the neon sign not knowing what’s going on

I’m lonely as can be you know, and I’m looking for a friend

I have to find one pretty soon, or I’m going round the bend

My heart you know is heavy and it’s feeling like a stone

I miss my mum and dad you know so I’m just a going home

I think I’ll bust that neon sign for all the bad advice

The things that I’ve been doin’ now, is of my own devise

I’m heading in the wrong direction all I ever do is roam

But I think I’ll call my mum and dad ‘cause I’m just a going home

Chorus

Here I am in the big bright city under the neon sign

It tells me now what life’s about that everything will be just fine

It sends a message to my soul you have to keep pushing on

I’m sitting under the neon sign not knowing what’s going on

I miss my mum and dad you know, so I’m just a going home
