WOKE UP THIS MORNING WITH MY MIND

Woke up this morning with my mind stayed on Jesus

Woke up this morning with my mind stayed on Jesus

Woke up this morning with my mind stayed on Jesus

Hallelu, hallelu, Hallelujah

 

Singing and praying with my mind…

 

I’m walking and talking with my mind…

 

THE LORD IS BLESSING ME

The Lord is blessing me, right now, right now

The Lord is blessing me, right now, right now

He woke me up this morning and started me on my way

The Lord is blessing Me, right now

 

LORD, PREPARE ME

Lord prepare me to be a sanctuary

Pure and holy, tried and true

With thanksgiving, I’ll be a living

Sanctuary for You

 

I AM ON THE BATTTLEFIELD

I am on the battlefield for my Lord,

I'm on the battlefield for my Lord;

And I promised Him that I would serve Him till I die.

I am on the battlefield for my Lord.

 

I was alone and idle,

I was a sinner too,

I heard a voice from heaven

Say there is work to do,

I took the Master's hand,

And I joined the Christian band,

I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.

 

I left my friends and kindred

Bound for the Promised Land,

The grace of God upon me,

The Bible in my hand,

In distant lands I trod,

Crying, sinner, come to God,

I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.

 

Now when I met my Savior,

I met Him with a smile,

He healed my wounded spirit,

And owned me as His child,

Around the throne of grace,

He appoints my soul a place,

I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.

 

I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS

I have decided to follow Jesus

I have decided to follow Jesus

I have decided to follow Jesus

No turning back, no turning back

 

Though none go with me, still I will follow . . .

 

The world behind me, the cross before me . . .

 

BE RIGHT

When you see me singing my song,

(I just want to be right)

When you see me walking along,

(I just want to be right)

 

Right, I just wanna be right

Right, I just wanna be right

Right, I just wanna be right

Right, I just wanna be right

 

When you see me singing,

(I just want to be right)

When you see me testifying,

(I just want to be right)

 

When you see me giving God the praise,

(I just want to be right)

When you see me worshiping the Lord,

(I just want to be right)

 

Be right,

Be right,

Be right,

I wanna be right

 

Right, I just wanna be right

Right, I just wanna be right
