Resonates...

 


more than just a lil bit.


"These things you keep

You'd better throw them away

You wanna turn your back

On your soulless days

Once you were tethered"





"And now you are free"





"Once you were tethered"



"Well now you are free"



(“You have been set free from sin 

and have become slaves to righteousness” 

Romans 6:18)


"That was the river"


"This is the sea!"





(Habakkuk 2:14

For the earth shall be filled 

with the knowledge 

of the glory of the Lord, 

as the waters cover the sea.)


"Now if you're feelin' weary"

(Yeah...knew that feelin for a long time...)


"If you've been alone too long"

(Yeah...lil bit.)


"Maybe you've been suffering from

A few too many

Plans that have gone wrong"


(Maybe they weren't Gods p0lans?)


"And you're trying to remember

How fine your life used to be"


(You ready for that?)


"Running around banging your drum

Like it's 1973

Well that was the river"



"This is the sea!

Wooo!"




"Now you say you've got trouble

You say you've got pain

You say've got nothing left to believe in

Nothing to hold on to

Nothing to trust

Nothing but chains"





"You're scouring your conscience

Raking through your memories

Scouring your conscience

Raking through your memories

But that was the river"




"This is the sea yeah!"




"Now I can see you wavering

As you try to decide

You've got a war in your head

And it's tearing you up inside

You're trying to make sense

Of something that you just can't see"




"Trying to make sense now

And you know you once held the key

But that was the river"




"And this is the sea!"




"Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah!


Now I hear there's a train

It's coming on down the line

It's yours if you hurry

You've got still enough time"


(Yeah...two more 

entire songs here :-


"People get ready

There's a train a-coming

You don't need no baggage

You just get on board

All you need is faith

To hear the diesels humming

Don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord"


"So people get ready

For the train to Jordan

Picking up passengers' coast to coast

Faith is the key

Open the doors and board 'em

There's hope for all

Among those loved the most"


"There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner

Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own (believe me now)

Have pity on those

Whose chances grow thinner

For there's no hiding place against the Kingdom's Throne"


"So people get ready

There's a train a-comin'

You don't need no baggage

You just get on board

All you need is faith

To hear the diesels humming

Don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord"


"And you don't need no ticket

And you don't pay no fee

No you don't need no ticket

You don't pay no fee"


Invitation to the Needy

Isaiah 55:1

Come, all you who are thirsty, 

come to the waters; 

and you without money, 

come, buy, and eat! 

Come, buy wine and milk 

without money and without cost!


The price already been paid for you:


and:

Zion train is coming our way
The Zion train is coming our way
Oh, people, get on board! (You better get on board!)
Thank the Lord (Praise Fari)
I gotta catch a train, 'cause there is no other station
Then you going in the same direction (Ooh-ooh)

Zion train is coming our way
The Zion train is coming our way

Which man can save his brother's soul? (Save your brother's soul)
Oh man, it's just self control (Oo-hoo-oo!)
Don't gain the world and lose your soul (Just don't lose your soul)
Wisdom is better than silver and gold
To the bridge (Ooh-ooh!)

Oh, where there's a will
There's always a way
Where there's a will
There's always a way (Way, way, way, way)

Soul train is coming our way, 
Zion train is coming our way

Two thousand years of history (History)
Could not be wiped away so easily
Two thousand years of history (Black history)
Could not be wiped so easily (Could not be wiped so easily)

Oh, children, Zion train is comin' our way, get on board now!
They said the Zion train is comin' our way
You got a ticket, so thank the Lord!

Zion train is
Zion train is
Zion train is
Zion train
They said the soul train is coming our way
They said the soul train is coming our way


Ephesians 4:8


“He ascended on high 
and took prisoners captive;
    he gave gifts to men.”






"Because that was the river"


"And this is the sea!"




"Behold the sea!"
