(2008b) Good Day To Die

2.) Sometimes

(2008b) Good Day to Die

Sometimes I just can't see beyond my nose Sometimes I just feel like I could explode And I feel like I'm trappend in some wrong episode Then again sometimes I feel strong and so full of faith certain that there is nothing I can't take Wondering if anyting could ever cause my world to shake (Chorus:) Sometimes I'm on a losing streak And that's when I find suddenly I reach the peak Sometimes I think I own the world and that's when I wind up the silliest nerd 1.) Adam & Eve (Chorus:)

Call me (D) naive, but (G) I still be(A)lieve in (G) Adam & (D) Eve (As4) Call me in(D)sane but I think when it rained just Noah's family remained Call me a fool, but I think it's cool that Jesus Christ's gonna rule Maybe I'm gone for (G) writing this (A) song, but I will sing on Born & raised in a (D) country where people just (A) "know" that they descended from (G) monkeys Can be just a bit squeezy when they get into teasing folks who believe in Jesus And it's not like they're blissful, thinking they're just fistfuls of primordial soup that one day crawled out on land Overly glorified mutants, specialized in disputing things they don't understand (Ch.) If you just keep repeating the same old lie, folks won't think that you're cheatin' Cause they'd never assert you'd have such a nerve, instead of fearing a beatin' And if this worked before, they figure there must be more people to pull some wool all over their eyes And what they call education in our civilized nations doesn't amount to much more than just a big pack of lies So, (Ch. 2x)

Sometimes when I think it's the end You tell me, "Hey. let's start again!" When I think there's no way I can You punch through & comfort me, tell me, "I'm your biggest fan"

Sometimes I feel like I could fly away & other times all I can really do is pray Seems like those are the times when I accomplish things Your way Sometimes I think I'm cool like Superman Other times I am a loser like Clark Kent But that's when I give You the chance to shine through me again (Chorus) 3.) Say What You've Got to Say Boy, you've got something to say so don't just lock it away Let it burst, let it flow They don't need more silly songs but one who tells'em what's wrong and which way to go (Am) Say what you've (G) got to say (Em) speak what's on your (F) heart to speak Show them the life and way and truth they may not seem to seek Give what you've got to give Don't hide what you received They may not show today what soon will be known, that you've got just what they need

It may not promise success, this road that looks like a mess compared to Mammon's big guns But you're to free them from fear and not just tickle their ears there's more at stake here than fun (Ch.) (Br.:) (Dm) Give them new (Am) life for real a (F) love that's not (G) found in this world (Dm) Tell them a(F)bout the deal (Em) that's guaranteed (Am) out of this world Never again may this chance come around To lead (G) this soul Home So, (Ch.)

To my God I cry, “Oh please, don’t let the love in her die!” Save her from their lies they are feeding her now Make her stronger somehow And believe what they don’t (Ds4) allow As (C) she tries to (D) play that (G) role (Em) And follows where there’s no goal Faithfully rides down that road everyday Through the heat and through the cold To the murder of her soul To the murder of her (G) soul

5.) Sum of the Parts Guess I'm not much of a hero today I'd rather let You be the Star, anyway Of all the things I can ever do or say not one could begin to compare with the price that You paid

4.) Soul Murder There she (C) goes a(D)gain, to her own (C) slaughter, just (D) like a (G) lamb (Em) Unaware of them conforming her to their scam Obediently plays her role She follows, though there’s no goal She faithfully walks down that road everyday Through the heat and through the cold To the murder of her soul (Em) She carries a (D) heavy (G) weight (C) Determined she won’t be late Habit has told her that this is her home And the place where she belongs She (C) tells her friends (D) things that will make her fit in And subtly as in dreams takes part in the machine And where (C) once a child uninhibited, shameless and wild Change is taking place in her spirit, her style, on her face Obediently plays her role She follows, though there’s no goal She faithfully walks down that road everyday Through the heat and through the cold To the murder of her soul And I (Em) bleed (D) inside, though my (C) anger & pain I can’t (G) hide Where has (Em) gone the (D) child that I (C) once used to know Who was (B/G) real, without show With a (Am7) light shining (D) from her (G) eyes

Guess I'll let You be the Hero today we're only Your weak, humble brides anyway If You're strong in our weakness, guess that's okay You're perfectly welcome to take the lead now and always I'm hopelessly lost without You, Lord, today You're more than a compass, You're (both) guide and the way I'm totally helpless without You right here You're all that has mattered & will ever matter for real Cause whether we live, Lord, we live unto You And whether we die, Lord, it's unto You, too (whatever You choose) As much as the world has to offer each day You're more than the sum of the parts any of us might play So please, take this song from my heart, Lord, I pray I only return what is Yours, anyway If I may only partake of Your grace I'll know 'll have found more than I could any other place And if I worship, Lord, let it be You, and not just an image my mind made of You Cause You deserve no less than love that is real our passion, commitment, all we can give, fathom or feel ... You're more than the sum of the parts of us all anyway

6.) Good Day to Die (Ch.:) It’s a good day to (As2) die, Good day to (F) teach’em how to (G) live (Ds2) Bid one last goodbye to pride & give all I’ve got to give Kill off those lies stopping me from helping you believe Yeah, it’s a (F) good day for me to (G) die for you, my friend (Ds2) (F) die that (G) you might (As2) live Thank you for killing my pride by revealing a side of me I never knew I’m not the man I thought I was Thank you for teaching me well that we all deserve hell unless by His grace We choose to receive the Son of God Thanks for the way you wipe out my suspicions & doubts By showing me where they lead & where they’re coming from Thank you for being around to show you all I’ve found Even if it turns out that you want none of it (Ch.) Thank you for lending an ear & confronting your fears In accepting me here telling you there’s more than this And if you open your heart & say your little part You’ll be taking a step you won’t ever regret Don’t think I’m leading you on with the words of this song I believe & I mean every little part of it Someone must die that another may live & I’m here to tell you That that’s precisely what Jesus did

7.) Love Harder (Chorus:) We've got to learn how to (Em) love better (Cmaj7) love stronger, (Bm7) love deeper, (Am7) love harder (Bm7) learn to hear (Em) much better, (Cmaj7) feel stronger (Bm7) look deeper, (Am7) try harder (Bm7)

(Em) How any of us here can (Cmaj7) quite sincerely (Bm7) say that we love (Am7) others (Bm7) in the (Em) way that they are (Am7) yearning to be (Bm7) loved - a love that's (Am7) truly from a(Em)bove? Do we take time to make them see that we are here for them 'cause we renounce all lesser purposes than love because that's what God is? (Em) How any of us here can (Cmaj7) quite sincerely (Bm7) say that we know (Am7) others (Bm7) in the (Em) way that they are (Am7) yearning to be (Bm7) known, accepted as one of our own? The word "respect" means "look again" so, look and recognize your friends for who and what they truly are because... (Chorus) (Em) How any of us here can (Cmaj7) quite sincerely (Bm7) say that we are truly in the (Em) way that Jesus Christ taught us to walk? Our deeds tell more than what we say So let us all do more than talk and not just know but walk the way How many of us are distracted by the means of keeping rolling the machine? We feed our bodies, not the soul and consequently fail to know what it is that makes us all grow Oh,

(Ch.) (Chorus) Good day to die that you might live (4x)

8.) In Thy Skirts

(Jeremiah 2:34)

Thousands of unborn new babies each day are legally murdered the civilized way In the name of progress, the name of advance they are stripped of each semblance of even a chance You may cry your heart out while they bleed to death Or think you're so great cause you stole their first breath In thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents 10.000 starvation victims a day while we carelessly throw our leftovers away We're all so clever, developed & smart We consider killing each other an art You may shrug your shoulder while they starve to death and plan which country you're going to ruin next

9.) Never Quit No, I'm not giving in, I'll keep hanging on I'm not giving up, never gonna stop No, I, I refuse to quit, I'm destined to go on I may not be that strong but I carry on Never quit! Do you sometimes feel as if nobody cares no one shares the burdens that you bear? Do you sometimes wonder "Is anybody there?" Well I can relate if that's how you feel I know it's real but I assure you, it's no big deal Cause when temptation bids me to give in, saying, "You can't win" and when the Enemy is closing in, I just grin and answer, (Ch.) Do you sometimes feel as though your life's a mess the more you give, they all could not care less? Do you sometimes wonder where's the point in this? Well, I've been there, too, it ain't somethin' new

Whatever you do, grit your teeth and follow through And when temptation bids you to give in, saying "You can't win" and when the Enemy is closing in, show him your grin and answer 10.) My Only Hope (July 6, 2008) As we're (Am) faced with the challenge to rise above The (G) pain inflicted on us by the ones we love The (F) lessons I glean lead me to conclude: My (Dm) on(Am)ly (F) hope's (Gsus4) in (Am) You Since it's hopeless trying to figure out (G) what it is we all get so annoyed about the (F) one thing that sticks out beyond a doubt is true: My (Dm)on(Am)ly (F) hope's (Gsus4) in (C) You in (Gs4) You Lord, my (Dm) on(Am)ly (F) hope's in (Gsus4) You It can be (Am) fatal to assume that flesh and blood can do the (G) one thing that has been reserved for Someone Who knows (F) all about our bugs and Who can fix'em, too Our only hope's in You Yet sometimes we expect of others more than (G) what they presently are eligible for we (F) press them into molds carefully construed when our only hope's in (C) You in (Gs4) You Lord, our (Dm) on(Am)ly (F) hope's in (Gsus4) You So (F) break our idols, (Am7) put a stop to (Dm7) our delusion, (C) wake us up The only One it pays to put our eyes upon is (Gs4) You The world doesn't need another pair of feet of clay But Someone Who'll assure us that we'll be okay I made up my mind, Jesus, it's You I choose My (Dm) on(Am)ly (F) hope's (Gsus4) in (Am) You Before I lose another bet I placed on someone else's promises or pretty face I'll stick to the solution that has proven true: My (Dm)on(Am)ly (F) hope's (Gsus4) in (C) You in (Gs4) You Lord, my (Dm) on(Am)ly (F) hope's in (Gsus4) You In (Am) You, in (Gs4) You Lord, my (Dm) on(Am)ly (F) hope's in (Gsus4) You

As we're (Am) faced with the challenge to rise above The (G) pain inflicted on us by the ones we love The (F) lessons I glean lead me to conclude... (Dm) (Am) (F) (Gsus4) (C)

11.) Believe It Or Not (Chorus:) Be(C)lieve it or not, there is a (F) God, and He’s (C) hot He’s greater (Dm) than everything but Still small e(F)nough to fit in(G)side your heart Believe it or not, there is a chance that He’s got A place for you in His own Hut Your very own reserved and personal spot Believe it or not, His love is more than a lot There’s nothing He would want more Than welcome you inside His “Care-a-lot” Believe it or not, there is a proof to this plot: He sent His Son to the world To die for you & me, believe it or not Be(C)lieve it or not, with every (F) breath that you (C) take God proves that (F) He loves you (Am) with a love that (F) nothing can (G) shake Believe it or not, to find relief from your sins All (that) you must do is open, & ask the Son to come in Be(Am)lieve it or not, but it’s as (F) simple as that God’s greatest (C) gift is so easy for any(G)body to get Believe it or not, it won’t take more than a thought To know that the best part of your life has not happened yet (Ch.)

12.) Freedom I can show you the way to freedom, if it’s freedom you want If you want to be led, I will lead on and teach you to confront All your fears, all your lusts & your demons, so they’ll no longer haunt If you’re blind, I can teach you to see them This is your freedom, if it’s freedom you want Freedom from numerous addictions to things you think you need Freedom from slavery to fiction, fables that make you bleed Freedom from fears and inhibitions, nightmares, worries and superstitions Freedom from their lies and delusions, disinformation and confusion Freedom from their control and intrusion: This is your freedom, if it’s freedom you want I can show you the way to freedom, if it’s freedom you want If you take Jesus and receive Him, you’ll need no more to run If you stick to His Words and do them, you’ll be His follower in truth and You will certainly know the truth then and that truth is gonna make you free, man Things you are blind to right now you will see then This is your freedom… Freedom from fears and inhibitions, nightmares, worries and superstitions Freedom from their lies and delusions, disinformation and confusion Freedom from their control and intrusion: This is your freedom, if it’s freedom you want We are the ones whom the Lord has raised and prepared to lead you through the darkness that’s to come We are the diamonds of dust who shine and sparkle in the sunlight of the One We are the shepherds who were sent to find you, gather you into the Master’s fold We are the children of the David of the End God sent and long ago foretold

Believe it or not, but there’s a power within Enabling even the weakest of losers to win Believe it or not, but if you follow Him Any need you may counter He will fill to the brim Believe it or not, but what you’re looking for Has come looking for you and standing right at your door Believe it or not, but you will see in the end If Jesus won’t turn out to be your totally coolest Friend

13.) Give Me Truth (Ch..:) Oh, give me truth, whatever you give me Don’t need to paint it nice for me Cause what’s the use, if I can't believe in it I’ve heard enough lies in my day I'm not the kind who choose to blindly grope through a dark world, Where artificial lighting sets deluded minds awhirl

Don't tell me lies, no alibis, no sweet, enticing words I'd rather have it straight, the facts - even if it hurts (Ch.) I must confess, I don’t like darkness all as much as light But careful with those coloured spotlights, when they get too bright To really see what’s going on, we need the light of truth And that sometimes reveals some things you won’t hear in the news (Ch.) I do appreciate you efforts to be friendly & polite The most politically correct, smart diplomat in sight But what I need is honesty to make it through my day It’s not the smoothness of your words that counts with me, no way (Ch.) 14.) Depending On You (Intro: G-F#/Dsus2-Em-C 2x)

Here I (G) stand by Your (F#/Dsus2) grace Bringing (Em) nothing but a (Em/D) heart full of (C) praise (D) I have tried for too long On my own, but I just wasn’t that (C) strong And as (C) I discard from my life all I (B/G) find less than true I trade (Am7) (in) those substitutes for the re(Em)solve that I’ll (Dsus4) be Depending on (G) You (intro) Let it rain down on me Let the water of Your Word wash me clean I’m afraid what I seemed & I thought to be was not really me And as You discard from my life all that’s much less than true Teach me one skill that will serve me when all other fall through: Depending on You

(Chorus:) De(C)pending on You I find (B/G) new strength within for things that (Am7) on my own I just couldn’t (G) do (D) Depending on You I am protected and know That there is no battle I could ever (Dsus4) lose Here I (G) stand by Your (F#/Dsus2) grace Bringing (Em) nothing but a (Em/D) heart full of (C) praise (D) I have tried for too long On my own, but I just wasn’t that (C) strong And as You discard from my life all that’s much less than true Teach me one skill that will serve me when all other fall through: Depending on You (Chorus) 15.) Yearn for You Every day has a new riddle for me Like crawling through a fog on hands and knees Question marks in the dark Where's the spark that will just shine enough light on the shadowy path before me? There are many things I just can't see unless You reveal them to me I've no clue where to go, what to do unless You show me & lead me & guide me Oh, Jesus, (Chorus:) I yearn for You I'm burning to learn so much more from You Teach me, Lord, let Your Word make my world more like Yours Open my eyes and my heart, Lord and teach me to see I want to be so much more like You, Jesus Change my heart, give me a new start, a new part to play in this mystery called life Jesus, show me the way! Every day brings a new challenge to me like a new prison from which to break free Whispers and voices surrounding me pointing in different directions in my quest & search for the key

(half intro) (mod.)

There are many things I just can't see unless You reveal them to me I've no clue where to go, what to do unless You show me & lead me & guide me Oh, Jesus, (Chorus) Put the right words on my lips to say Be my way, make my day fill every moment with Your light, Your love & Your presence Oh, Jesus, (Chorus) 16.) Praise to the Lamb (We Are the Same) (E) Praise (C#/As2) to the (E) Lamb slain (A) from this (F#m) world's foun(Bs4)da(B)tion (A) Praise (G#m) to the (C#m) One Who (A) was and (F#m) is to (B) come Praise to the Savior of all tongues and nations Praise to the Lord Om(A)nipo(B)tent Who (E) reigns Praise Him Who's come, redeemed us from our failures Praise Him Who was and is, will always be Praise to the Star Who'll rise for us each morning Healing in His wings, Jesus, King of (E) kings (Speed: 84) Though we were (A) nothing but (B) clay yet (G#m) He found a (C#m) way to (A) take from (B) us our (Es4) shame (E) Though we were (A) nothing but (B) dust He be(C#m)came one of (F#m) us Through (A) Him, the (B) Son of (Es4) God (E), (A) now we (B) are the (E) same (12-Step: 84) (Chorus:) (E) We (F#m) are the (B) same, (A) sons of God (B) through His (Es4) name (E) Re(F#m)deemed, (A) pardoned, (B) saved, cleansed (A) by His blood (B) from our (E) shame Re(F#m)born (A) by His (B) grace, He's (A) made us His (B) bride with (A) nothing to (B) hide Oh, (F#m) praise Him, we (B) are the (E) same

17.) Babylon the Great Babylon the Great is gonna meet her fate In one hour of one day she will be blown away Because she has made drunk with the wine of her fornication all the peoples of this earth, of every tongue and nation And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus in her was found the blood of prophets and all that were killed on the earth Babylon the Great is going to have to pay for her war-mongering, whoremongering, false & evil ways As much as she has glorified herself & lived deliciously So much torment & pain give her who sits there like a queen For the merchants of the earth have grown rich through her delicacies So come out of her, for God remembered her iniquities Babylon the Great is waking up too late therefore shall her pagues: death, famine and lament, come in one day So pay her back double portion of the cup she gave to you So rejoice over her, heaven & saints, for the Lord, the Judge, is true For in one hour such great riches they shall be no more & the voice of harpers & pipers shall be heard in thee no more And no craftsman of whatever craft he be shall be found no more in thee And the voice of the bride and the Bridegroom shall be heard no more in thee For by your sorceries were all nations deceived Babylon the Great is fallen - is fallen, in one hour is your judgment come Babylon the Great is fallen - is fallen, come and see what she has become Babylon the Great is fallen - is fallen, in one hour is your judgment come Babylon the Great is fallen - is fallen, come & weep over what she's done

18.) American Man (Norteamericano)

19.) Para la Muerte

Ac(Em)a me llaman Don José y solía vi(D)vir del terrano Pero hoy observo mi (Am) vida escapandome (Em) de la mano Siempre hubo ciertas cosas que me parecian extraño mas nada como al conco(Am)cer al nortea(Em)mericano

I don’t dear her, she’s my lover I just move on, I’m just coming Home

My name is Don Jose and I used to live off the land But now I watching my life slowly slip through my hand There always were things that I simply could not understand But never the same as since I met the American Man

“I am the Resurrection and the Life, He who believes in Me will live even though he dies And whoever lives and believes in Me will never die Do you believe this?” (John 11:25, 26)

Please don’t grieve for my goodbye It’s not forever I’m not really gone No la temo, es mi amante Solo muevo adelante a mi eterno Hogar

20.) Ganz nah (Em) O, (D) nunca volvera a ser lo (C) mismo el grano gracias (Am) a la ayuda amist(D)osa del nortea(Em)mericano Oh, things will never be the same Thanks to the friendly support of the American Man El dijo, “Debes ser astuto, usa mi grano especial Y el dinero se vendra cayendo como una torrente celestial” Mas en vez de cosechas que alimentaran mi pueblo hoy tengo Pienso para Ganado para (Am) que pueda comer mas carne el gringo

Ganz nah, ich brauch' Dich ganz nah Wenn ich Dich nicht bei mir spür' bin ich nicht ganz da Ganz nah, ich brauch' Dich ganz nah Lass mich Dein Herz in meinem klopfen fühl'n sag' mir, was ist wahr Bist Du so weit weg wie sie's uns einreden wollen? Sind wir bloß ein Stück Dreck, dem Urschleim Zufall entronnen? Sind wir nur ein Patent - 'ne Art Massenproduktion? Oder bin ich Dein Kind und vielleicht wartest Du schon?

He said, “You gotta be smart, Joe, use my special grain And you’ll see the money come falling from heaven just like the rain But instead of food crops we need I’m now growing cattle feed For the rich in the north to stuff their gloated bellies with meat

(Ref.)

O, nunca volvera a ser lo mismo el grano gracias a la ayuda amistosa del norteamericano Oh, things will never be the same Thanks to the friendly support of the American Man

O nunca me engañaron tanto Como los senores honrados de la impresa Monsanto Oh, life will never be the same Thanks to the friendly support of the American Man

Sind wir vorprogrammiert dazu uns selbst zu zerstör'n oder sind wir bestimmt dazu zu Dir zu gehör'n? Hast Du uns gar schon satt oder fängst Du jetzt erst an uns zu zeigen was Deine Liebe bewirken kann?

Sag', bist Du die Liebe Selbst, so wie Dein Buch Dich beschreibt oder ein Supergehirn das hier sein Unwesen treibt? Ist Dein Name Jehovah, Krishna, Buddha, Allah oder bist Du der zu dem uns're Seele ausruft, "Papa!"? (Ref.)

O, nunca volvera a ser lo mismo el grano gracias a la ayuda amistosa del norteamericano Oh, things will never be the same Thanks to the friendly support of the American Man Thanks to the friendly support of the American Man Oh, the American Man Oh, the American Man
