3LW Album

(written by Kirk Franklin)
(recorded by Kirk Franklin & One Nation Crew)
Verse 1:
Have you ever been so down, down,
that you dont really know what to say;
you tried and tried to do whats right, right,
and it seems more stuff comes your way.
So you unplug all the phones,
just wanna be left alone, praying for a better day.
Chorus:
Then I hear your sweet voice, (dont worry).
Will you be there, (in a hurry).
You know Ive been hurt before, (I see you).
Dont wanna be hurt no more, no, no, (never leave you no),
dont worry, dont worry, dont worry.
Verse 2:
See people always talk about bout the things
that theyve been going through,
but you cant tell how me I feel, feel,
until you walk in my shoes.
See, Im tired of being tired, fake people all around,
want someone to love me for me (me).
Chorus
Bridge:
When the rainbow cannot be found,
and so called best friend, youre not around,
I open my eyes and realize You were always there.

He's Working It Out Lyrics

Though the pressures of life seems to weigh you down,
and you dont know which way to turn;
God is concerned and Hes working it out for you.
The child thats on cocaine, through prayer he can change.
That marriage thats on the verge of breaking up,
although sometimes you have to walk alone.
Now you ask yourself, is there a word from the Lord,
you need a blessing and you need it right away;
God is concerned and Hes working it out for you.
No peace in the home, and no peace on the job,
the bills are due, and your health is failing too;
God is concerned and Hes working it out for you.
Chorus:
Hes working it out,
Hes working it out for you.
He's working it out,
He's working it out for you.
God cares,
Im so glad to know He cares,
I'm so glad to know He cares,
and Hes working it out for

Shirley Caesar - How I Love Jesus

How I love Jesus
No one can tear us apart
He took my broken pieces
Gave me a brand new start (repeat)
Verse 1
Have you ever wondered
Why God loves us so
Theres so many tests and trials
But there is one thing I surely know
Sometimes I walk in the valley
A place where the rubber meets the road
But I can surely say right now
That all of my strength comes from the Lord
Chorus
Now with everything that I have left
Im gonna make it last
Giving up the right for the wrong
Its now a thing of the past
And right now that I know Gods word
I know that the victorys won
Im so glad that the worst is all over
And the best is yet to come
chorus
Modulate up and repeat chorus

I Remember Mama Lyrics

Words and Music by Shirley Caesar, Michael Mathis,
Bernard Sterling, Dottie Sterling, Ann Price, Mae Newton
I remember Mama,
and the love that she gave
Kneeling by her bed side
I can still hear Mama say,
"The people are depending on you, Shirley,
don't you let them down"
I remember Mama in a happy way
We went to school with holes in our shoes
We didn't have much but the Lord saw us through
Mama kept the family together
I remember Mama in a happy way
She packed our lunch in an old greasy bag
It might've seemed empty,
but it was more than others had
It had a lot of love way down deep inside and
I remember Mama in a happy way
Now Mama is sleeping in the bosom of Jesus Christ
Somehow I know she's smiling, she's smiling on us right now
One day I'll see her again, how happy I will be
And I remember Mama in a happy way
My brothers and sisters, they're living far apart
Although my Mama's gone, she's right here in our hearts
We're all gonna pull together and stay in the holy place
I remember Mama in a happy way
I remember Mama, I remember Mama in a happ

He who stands, by me
Through the stormy weather
Thorugh good times and bad
Always there for me
Takes me to the water
And crenches my thirst
My sweet inspiration

Guides me to the mountain
Witness my rebirth
Makes me feel so worthy

And it's because of your love

A ray of hope shines thorugh
And shatters the darkness out there
We earse all the doubts
And the fears, that'll chnage

Precious Lord
(written by Thomas A. Dorsey)
Verse 1:
Precious Lord, take my hand,
lead me on, let me stand,
I am tired, I am weak, and worn.
Through the storm, through the night,
lead me on to the light;
take my hand, precious Lord,
lead me home.
Verse 2:
When my way grows drear,
precious Lord, linger near,
when my life is almost gone.
Hear my cry, hear my call,
hold my hand, lest I fall;
take my hand, precious Lord,
lead me home.

When the darkness appears
and the night draws near,
and the day is past and gone.
At the river I stand,
guide my feet, hold my hand;
take my hand, precious Lord,
lead me home.
