Wake Up 
Words and music by Greg Hough

Wake up! 
You think you're having fun 
Wake up! 
And see what you have done 

What do you think you are gonna do? 
When you find out what you're really going through? 
When there's noone else around 
When there's noone to be found 
Don't you be too late, there is no certain date 
Please don't hesitate, it might just be too late 
What are you gonna do? 

Oh, why don't you wake up? 
See what's going on 
Wake up 
Before your time is gone 

Wake up! 
You think you're having fun 
Wake up! 
And see what you have done 

There's a time that comes in everbody's life 
When you can't tell what to think is wrong or right 
Don't you feel like you're alone? 
Noone makes it on their own 
But only know you tried 
You're never satisified 
That's because of pride 
Behind that's where you hide 
What are you gonna do? 

Oh, why don't you wake up? 
Open up your eyes 
Wake up! 
Why can't you see the light?





Get Back to the Bible 
Words and music by Bob Hartman

I don't know what I've been told 
Joe Smith has seen Moroni 
It's getting so a man can't tell 
Who's real and who's a phony 

Get back to the Bible 
It's telling you the way to go 
Jesus is the answer to everything you need to know 

"Hare Krishna" may be fun to sing 
But it ain't gonna get you to heaven 
The only one who's gonna get you there 
His number is a perfect seven 

Get back to the Bible 
It's telling you the way to go 
Jesus is the answer to everything you need to know 

Satan worship may be cool and hip 
But when are you gonna learn? 
There's a place that's set for you and him 
Man, you know you're gonna burn 

So get back to the Bible 
It's telling you the way to go 
Jesus is the answer to everything you need to know





Gonna Fly Away 
Words and music by Bob Hartman

Dreamin' about flyin' since I was a boy 
Never thought I'd see the real mccoy 
I think it's safe to say 
I finally found a way 

Gonna fly away 
Gonna fly away 

Every day I've been looking in the sky 
Hope it's not raining when I start to fly 
I bet you think I'm strange 
Wait until I'm changed 

Gonna fly away 
Gonna fly away 

Where you gonna be when the trumpet blows? 
All that's left of me is gonna be my clothes 
I'd really like to see 
You flyin' next to me 

Gonna fly away 
Gonna fly away





Storm Comin' 
Words and music by Bob Hartman

Went to sleep last night and I woke up feeling right 
Daylight in my eyes and it seemed to be really bright 
I went to the window and I looked up in the sky 
I saw the angels coming but I knew it wasn't time to die 
I took a look around I saw the clouds begin to form 
I knew we must be near the end because the clouds come before the storm 

I know the time is near 
Lightning and thunder will soon here 

Storm comin' 
And it's coming our way 
Storm comin' 
And it might come today 
(look out, here it comes) 

I know my days are numbered 
And I haven't got long to roam 
It seems like quite a while I've been feeling like I want to go home 
I'm just waiting for the day when Jesus will come and take me by the hand 
There's no need to worry, He's gonna take me to the promise land 

I hope you'll be there too 
Jesus is waiting for you 

Storm comin' 
And it's coming our way 
Storm comin' 
And it might come today 
(look out, here it comes)





Parting Thought 
Words and music by Bob Hartman

Here's a song sung with you in mind 
Maybe it will make you think about Him one more time 
And if you can, please try to understand 
Jesus is yours for the asking





Walkin' in the Light 
Words and music by Bob Hartman 
Based on 1 John 1:7

I'm rockin' with the Rock 
Rollin' on the road that takes me to the King 
I've been up and down your city 
And I wish you could see all the love you need 

(Chorus) 
Walkin' in the light every day and night 
Livin' in the Spirit is really out of sight 
Walkin' in the light every day and night 
Livin' in the Spirit is really out of sight 

I know you've given me Your Spirit 
Peace in my heart, a new song to sing 
I'm giving love to all of my brothers 
And I wish you could see all the joy it brings 

I'm rockin' with the Rock 
Rollin' on the road that takes me to the King 
I'm tellin' all my friends about You 
And I wish they could see all the love You bring





Mountains and Valleys 
Words and music by Bob Hartman

Standing high on a mountain, I can see forever 
All the parts of the puzzle seem to be together 
The sky is clear and the sun shines on me 
The Lord is here and I'm feelin' so free 

Walking through the valley, darkness falls around me 
Walking through the shadows, evil things surround me 

I'm not forsaken 
The Lord is my light 
I know He's making a way in the night 

If you've never been in the valley 
You'll never know 
How high the mountain is above the valley below 

When you walk through the valley 
You've got to keep your head up 
If you fall or stumble you've got to pick yourself up 
The Lord is waiting to hear your heart cry 
He'll always give you another try





Lucas McGraw 
Words and music by Bob Hartman 
Based on Titus 2:7

Lucas McGraw, what's come over you? 
We're beginnin' to think you're touched 
We heard you got religion 
Ya ain't been 'round to see us much 
Ya threw away your corncob pipe and your jug of moonshine brew 
And we hear you ain't been doin' all those things you used to do 

Lucas McGraw what's come over you? 
You're shavin' every day 
You ain't been chasin' women and you kissed your wife today 
You went to church last Sunday and ya shook the preacher's hand 
And they you been talkin' 'bout a home beyond this land 

Lucas McGraw, what's come over you? 
You never cuss no more 
We hear you ain't been feudin', you hung your rifle by the door 
Ya take a bath each Sunday, if you need it or not 
And ya go to work on Monday even when it's hot 

Lucas McGraw what's come over you? 
We're beginnin' to think you're touched 
We hear ya got religion, ya ain't been 'round to see us much 
But ya know we've all been wonderin' 
If what you got just might be real 
And all the while we're laughin' 
Is it really God, is it really God 
Is it really God you feel?





Backslidin' Blues 
Words and music by Bob Hartman

Please tell me what makes me feel this way 
I've been down to the bottom and I don't want to stay 
Tell me what can I do 
To get back to You? 

I got the blues 
Those backslidin' blues 

I can see it, I've been on the wrong road 
And I'm too tired to carry such a heavy load 
Satan's marking me now 
I can't take it no more 

I got the blues 
Those backslidin' blues 

Have mercy, take me back once again 
I'll never be perfect and I sure haven't been 
I know that you will 
But you know that until 

I got the blues 
Those blackslidin' blues





I'm Not Ashamed 
Words and music by Bob Hartman

I'm not ashamed to say I need you 
You satisfy my every need 
And when I yield to You and give my love You always set me free 

I'm not ashamed to talk about You 
You given me a love You share 
I know you died and rose and will return to meet us in the air 

I'm not ashamed, I've been forgiven 
I have no need to run and hide 
And when You take my hand I know that there's to be afraid 

I'm not ashamed to say I love You 
And I know You first loved me 
And when I hear Your voice, it keeps me hanging on to what I've got
