Break in My Head (Wimber)

Break in my head
That's what I said
When I woke up this morning.
Shadow in my mind
Oh I felt so low
Break in my mind
All of the time
What a shape I'm in
I didn't want it
I didn't want to let go
You ask me why I say
"Oh, because I know."
Hold'n on to forgiven sin
That was the shape I was in
Then He came through clear on my inner radio show
Said, "You gotta let go."
Christian Twisters (Knott)

Have you ever see a Christian twistin' out
in all the time he has to spare?
It's kinda like livin' while whistlin' about in Los Angeles.
Convictions on the brain,
Talkin', dancin' with the Christian twisters
A twistin' and a twistin', Christian twisters
On and on, on and on
Have you ever felt the Spirit movin' out
like a British car rollin' in London, England
on Queen Elizabeth's lawn
I don't mean twisted brains!
I'm talkin' dancin' with the Christian twisters
What do you mean that we can't have fun?
Daddy is always waiting
What do you mean that we can't have fun?
He'll be coming back
He'll be coming back
He'll be coming, back to you
He'll be coming back
He'll be coming back
He'll be coming back, back to you
Oh-oh yeah
The world's gonna pay, the world's gonna pay
Economy's shot and the world can end
I don't mean twisted brains!
I'm talkin' dancin' with the Christian twisters
A Christian twister goes
A Christian twister goes
A Christian twister goes...
I LOVE GOD
Glamour Girls (Knott)

Glamour girls are happy
G.Q. men are glad
Bad men are good men
Good men are bad
Fornication and adultery
We've go liberated youth
I've seen it on the t.v.
but now I know the truth...
It's not real, it's not real happiness
It's not real, it's not real happiness
Joanie sells her body on Sunset Strip
Mr Jones bought her and she got ripped
Sellin' your soul for a handful of pills
Midnight with Judy, cheap cheap thrill
It's not real, it's not real happiness
It's not real, it's not real happiness
It's not real
It's not real
It's not
It's not real
It's not real
It's not
It's not real, it's not real happiness
Christian Army (Knott)

Well, we march all day through the night time, too
Yes, the Christian Army's victory's in view
and we wouldn't have done it if it weren't for the Son
Whoever said, "A Christian can't have fun?"
Not me
Not me
And His Lordship's manor is a worthy empire
Through spiritual war we shall not tire
for His light shines through us and the battle is won
Whoever said, "A Christian can't have fun?"
Not me
Not me
WE WON!
He's won in the battalion
REJOICE!
Our name's in the Book of Life
(there's no sting of death in our lives)
So,we'll keep on marching
Left/right...we won tonight!
Physical (Wimber, Knott)

I know the problems we've got in today's world
so many people are basing love on the physical
Soon, emotions are fading, then devotions go away
I hear that you've been out sinnin' girl
Could it be cause you're basing love on the physical?
Soon emotions fade then devotions go away

don't base it on the physical
don't base it on the physical
don't base it on the physical
don't base it on the physical, because you know

Some say the Holy Spirit is not real
I've shaken, I've fallen down
and I've seen people healed
Don't let me be mistaken
When I shake I'm not fakin'

don't base it on the physical
don't base it on the physical
don't base it on the physical
don't base it on the physical
because you know the spiritual is real.

Faith, it comes by hearing
and hearing by the Word of the Lord
What is your faith based on?
Where is you treasure stored?
If you don't speak in tongues, too
that doesn't mean it's not real for you!

don't base it on the physical
don't base it on the physical
don't base it on the physical
Waiting for You (Wimber, Heiner, Goins)

What-what, what are you afraid of?
Changes, Strangers
You know He's waiting there for you
How long can you run from His love?
There's no where to hide
Are you so afraid of what you'll find inside?
oh-oh, Where'll He find you?
In the nightlife or the bright light?
You know He's waiting there for you
He's waiting for you
He's waiting for you
He's waiting for you
Don't let yourself get left behind
You know He's at the door
You're running out of time
Sooner or Later (Wimber, Knott)

OK, you think that you're a Christian
You run around drunk on Scotch
and Martinis turn to shattering glass entering your hand
I see you try to pull wool over my eyes
Maybe I, maybe I can't see but God can see you!
Oh yes, God can see you
Oh yes, God can see you
Sooner or later you're gonna have to choose
Sooner or later it's gonna be the big decision
Sooner or later, the choice, it's all up to you
Sooner or later, will you win or will you lose?
Upstairs, you and Josephine (trickster)
I, I can't see what you're doing
'cause I can't see through the door
You think you're happy when you go ah-h but
It only lasts a moment
then the feeling is through

And still God can see you
still God can see you
Sooner or later you're gonna have to choose
Sooner or later it's gonna be the big decision
Sooner or later, the choice, it's all up to you
Sooner or later, will you win or will you lose?
False Identity (Knott)

I see you walking 'round the streets
I see you stumbling your brother
The bible you read is ONE WAY
while your lifestyle's another

I don't what you got
I don't want it - no
You'll be so unrelated
you'll be excommunicated to the world

False identity, False identity

Maybe if you were to share the Good News when you go out
I might understand the meaning of your life
but I don't want what you got, I don't want it - no
For you to be related you must be regenerated
but you're cold blind

False identity, False identity

Do you think you'll be going to Heaven?
I Won't Give In (Knott)

Hey Shawnee
What do you think of the world
the way it is today
Can't you see it's going down,
right next to the economy
Look into the paper
what do you read in the magazines?
All I ever see is nudity on the movie screen
Don't tell me they don't show it
So I'm running
Don't you know I've got to have HIM
Running
Don't you know I really need HIM
I won't give in
I won't give in
No I won't give in to the world today
With the things they do and the things they say
Naked women run around in lingerie
and don't tell me they don't know it
So I'm running
Don't you know I've got to have HIM
Running
Don't you know I really need HIM
I won't give in
I won't give in
No I won't give in to the world
You run around and caught the Clap at the Vine
Hey man! can you spare a dime
You're livin' out with a hole in your pocket
and you're lookin' for a lover
but the whole world's under the same covers
I won't give in
I won't give in
No, I won't give in
The One (Knott)

Jesus, He's the one
He makes livin' life so much fu
He takes care of my problems too
And if you want, He can do the same for you

Open up, let Him in
you can be made brand new again
Open your heart
Jesus, He's the way
You'd know it too if you heard what He had to say

There's no more void and null
Don't you know your life has been paid in full?
Open up, let Him in, you can be made brand new again
Open your heart. It's time to choose
Up or down? Down or up?
C'mon, where you think you're going?

In around and down the street
and in the street, and into Johnny . . .
He got saved and don't ya know it's all so real!

HE don't care if your daddy's rich
HE don't care if your mommy's poor
HE don't care if your stuck on drugs
HE will save you, save you

Jesus, HE's the one
Jesus, HE's the one
Jesus, HE's the one for us
Hurt Out of my Heart (Wimber, Knott)

I knew a girl, she was so good for me
we'd go out every night and day
but the temptations got too strong
and we knew that it was wrong
so we had to break apart

Oh Lord, could you get her out of my heart
I don't want to cr--y, I'm fallin' apart
Tears are in my eyes

Well, I'll always love her so
but I want my heart to change
to be lovin' of the Lord
not what my flesh says, no oh oh oh
so when temptations got too strong
we knew that it was wrong
and we had to break apart

Oh Lord, could you get her out of my heart
I don't want to cr--y
I'm fallin' apart
Tears are in my eyes

HEY!---LORD
Could You get it, get it out of my heart
HEY!---LORD
Could You get it, get it out of my heart
HEY!---LORD
Could You get it, get it out of my heart
out of my heart
out of my heart
out of my heart
Could You get it out of my heart
I don't want to cry I'm fallin' apart
Tears are in my eyes
Fourteen (Knott)

Just fourteen, when she found what she was lookin' for
Holdin' to the better and that's 1-2-3
Turned fifteen, holdin' on strong
Had her life together as anyone can see
and then everybody could tell her from a Christian
and a lost young teen.

Turn sixteen, not now very strong
late nights in the city
barely anymore livin' for who she was livin' for
Tryin' to forget her life, yet she still can see
but NOW nobody can tell her from a Christian
and a lost young teen

Because you know
She's got one foot in and one foot out
Tell me what your dream life's all about
She's got one foot in and one foot out of the world
oooh and she's runnin' she's runnin' out of steam

Wishin' she was somewhere else, but standin' in-between
Because you know
She's got one foot in and one foot out
Tell me what your dream life's all about
She's got one foot in and one foot out of the world

Seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty
Now she's barely twenty one
Drunk in bars, strangers' cars,
Watchin' her life crumbling, yet she still can see
but, NOW one can tell her she's not a Christian
just a lost young teen
But, still

She's got one foot in and one foot out
Tell me what your dream life's all about
She's got one foot in and one foot out of the world
She's got one foot in and one foot out
She's got one foot in and one foot out of the world, girl
Tell me 'bout your dream life
Tell me 'bout your dream life
I'm Not (Knott, Wimber)

Psychos are killing, people are thrilling
You may be willing but I'm not
Cars get faster, nuclear disasters
A killer laster that I'm not
My world's above
I have love
You might die, but now I'm not
Smoke some hash, steal a little cash
You're into it but I'm not.
Drunk on brew, your friends are too
You're lost in view but I'm not
My world's above
I have love
You might die, but now I'm not
No, no I'm not
No, no I'm not
No, no I'm not
I love JESUS CHRIST!
Make your decision (it's not a religion)
or stay in division but I'm not
My world's above
I have love
You might die, but now I'm not
Watch Nowhere (Knott, Wimber)
