Lyrics by: Brett James / Holly Lamar

I look around at all the faces and I see
All the lonely people looking back at me
Rich, poor don't matter we're all the same
Everybody's hungry in a different way
We're clawin' and climbin' and kickin' and screamin' and fightin' but really

Chorus
What the world needs now is love
Love and only love
A little help from up above
Faith to make a better day
Let's come together
Lay our differences down
Spread it all around
That's what the world needs now

(La, la, la, la, la)

Sometimes all it takes is just a smile
To change somebody's weather
Chase the clouds out of their sky
Sometimes you gotta give and not receive
Sometimes you gotta live what you believe
Open your arms cause that's where it starts
Right here with you and with me

Chorus

Bridge
Nobody likes the cold
We all need someone to hold
No one wants to be alone

Chorus: Repeat 3 times

(Third time: "Let's come together, lay our prejudices down…")
(La, la, la, la, la)

Fade Out

. . .


Lyrics by: Chuck Cannon / James Dean Hicks

I could lose my vision
My eyes no longer see
I could lose my religion
In my struggle to believe

That would be a loss
That would be a cross
I'd somehow rise above
But Heaven help me
If I ever lose your love

I've traded my innocence
For the secrets of the night
Felt my calloused conscience
Lose its grip on wrong and right

It cut me to the bone
But somehow I've held on
'Cause I could feel your touch
But Heaven help me
If I ever lose your love

'Cause you are the one light that shines on me
Without your love God knows where I'd be

Lost without a prayer
Somewhere way out there
My soul would turn to dust
Heaven help me
If I ever lose your love

'Cause you are the one light that shines on me
Without your love God knows where I'd be

So hold me close again
Tell me it won't end
And that will be enough
Heaven help me
If I ever lose your love

Heaven help me
If I ever lose your love

. . .


Lyrics by: Chuck Cannon

Talking heads talking to us on the television
Silver screen preachers and politicians
Say they got the answer first they gotta squeeze us
Send a little money there's tax on Jesus
Fix it with a prayer, fix it with a dollar
Does anybody out there ever want to holler?

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh it all comes down to love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Self-help guru's got a best seller
Ricki Lake's got a drag-queen bank teller
1-900 look into the crystal
N.R.A. says you better buy a pistol
They made a little pill but it might cause cancer
It's just a cheap thrill when you're looking for the answer
There's only one answer

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh it all comes down to love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh it all comes down to love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Suits on Wall Street make another million
Dealer on the backstreet talkin' to your children
You cry for help and nobody listens
You lie awake at night wonderin' what's missing?
You can put an end to all the confusion
Look into your heart for the one solution

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh it all comes down to love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh it all comes down to love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

. . .


Lyrics by: Chuck Cannon / Allen Shamblin / Austin Cummingham
Special Appearance by Wynonna and Naomi Judd (The Judds)

Old tin roof, leaves in the gutter
A hole in the screen door big as your fist, and flies on the butter
Mamaw baking sugar cookies, we were watching cartoons
Heard her holler from the kitchen which one of you youngin's wants to lick the
spoon?
Yellow jackets on the watermelon, honeysuckle in the air
Daddy turning on the sprinkler, us kids running through it in our underwear
Old dog napping on the front porch, his ear just a-twitching
Fell asleep on Granddaddy's lap to the sound of his pocket watch ticking

Chorus
Oh, oh, oh - Oh, oh, oh
It doesn't seem like it was all that long ago
Oh, oh, oh - Oh, oh, oh
You can dream about it every now and then
But you can't go home again

Me and my best friend Jenny set up a back yard camp
Stole one of Mama's Mason jars, poked holes in the lid and made a fire fly lamp
Me and Billy Monroe sneaking down by the river
And I'm still haunted by the taste kiss I was too scared to give him

Repeat Chorus

There's a black-top road, a faded yellow centerline
It can take you back to the place, but it can't take you back in time

Repeat Chorus

Old tin roof, leaves in the gutter
A hole in the screen door big as your fist, and flies on the butter

. . .


Lyrics by: Tanya Leah / Bob Farrell

Been caught in a downpour of a rain of stones
Felt like an exile in the world I had known
So I sought the shelter of my own soul
And stayed inside

I found no comfort in placing blame
I saw the hope that lay just beyond the pain
The past is a prison and I won't wear those chains
And I won't hide, oh no

Chorus
I will be here
I will be strong
I'll face my fears
When the night is long
And still go on
I will be brave
I will be bold
Follow my faith
To a higher road
And I'm not there yet
But I will be

I could choose to keep my feet upon the beaten path
Never cross the open field for the one snake in the grass
But I'd rather risk my heart then never get the chance
To find my way, to find my way

Repeat Chorus

. . .


Lyrics by: Mick Jones
Special Appearance by Jeff Beck

I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older

This mountain I must climb
Feels like the world's upon my shoulders
Through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

Chorus
I want to know what love is
I want you to show me
I want to feel what love is
I know you can show me

I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

Repeat Chorus

. . .


Lyrics by: Wayne Hector / Steve Robson

If life was a classroom
And love was just a lesson
An answer you can guess
Until you get it right

You with your hand up
Who are you impressing
It's just when everything
Is clearly in your sight

Bridge
Will cast you adrift
But I'm of the notion
It is what it is
Say it with me

Chorus
It's only love
You take it until it's gone
The thing to build your world upon
When it's getting rough
It's only love
There's nothing like a fantasy
The way we think it ought to be
It's never quite enough

If life was a spaceship
Cruising through the cosmos
Then love will be the rock that
Blows you from your sky

Though it can be emotive
It can be explosive
And when it leaves you cold
All you can do is lie

Bridge:
So bite your lip
Hide your emotion
It is what it is
Say it with me

Chorus

. . .


Lyrics by: Derek George / Neil Thrasher / Bryan White

What I am supposed to do with this house, and these cars
All this so called success the good Lord's given me
I'd gladly give it all away right now,
Just to see you walk through that gate
Up the drive and back to the simple we used to be
Before the money and the lawyers and the lies and the chains
And all this fame

Chorus
Sometimes I feel like Elvis
Here I am with everything and nothing at all
I've never felt so helpless
I don't know who I am now that you're gone
Sometimes I feel like Elvis

I remember the first time I saw you, you killed me
I'd never wanted anything or anyone so bad
I took for granted that just because of who I was
You'd be there, while I gave the rest of the world all I had
Everything got crazy, it all happened so fast
It was outta my hands

Chorus
Sometimes I feel like Elvis
Here I am with everything and nothing at all
I've never felt so helpless
I don't know who I am now that you're gone

Bridge
Sometimes I feel like I'm on stage
Sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy

REPEAT HALF CHORUS

What am I suppose to do with this house and these cars
I'd gladly give it all away right now
Just to see you

Sometimes I Feel like Elvis

. . .


Lyrics by: Dennis Linde

Lord almighty,
I feel my temperature rising
Higher and higher
It's burning through to my soul

Baby, baby, baby
You're gonna set me on fire
My brain is flaming
And I don't know which way to go

Your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love

Ooh, ooh, ooh
I feel my temperature rising
Help me, I'm flaming
I must be a hundred and nine
Burning, burning, burning
Nothing can cool me
I just might turn into smoke
But I feel fine

Cause your kisses lift me higher
Like a sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love

It's coming closer
The flames are now licking my body
Won't you help me
I feel like I'm slipping away
It's hard to breathe
And my chest is just a-heaving
Lord, a'mercy
Burning a hole in me

Cause your kisses life me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love
With burning love
Ah, ah burning love

I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
(repeats seven times)

. . .


Lyrics by: Sarah Nagourney / Chris Rodriquez / Bobby Blazier

I've been alone too long
Wondering how to go on
Without you here by my side
So many lonely nights
Only memories keeping me alive

It never crossed my mind
So much would take me to you and I
I could have known you wouldn't stay
Now it's a lonely day
It used to be your love lifting me away

I can't go on now that you're gone
I feel this emptiness
If it's not you I'm thinking of
If it's not you - who am I supposed to love

Nobody stands in your place
I can't see another's face
Only a trace of what I knew
Only a shadow
I can't picture anyone but you

I can't go on now that you're gone
I feel this emptiness
If it's not you I'm thinking of
If it's not you - who am I supposed to love

I should have known, something so strong
Couldn't go on and last forever
If it's not you, who am I supposed to love

Now just a trace of what I knew
Only a shadow
I can't picture anyone but you

I can't go on now that you're gone
I feel this emptiness
If it's not you I'm thinking of
If it's not you - who am I supposed to love

. . .


Lyrics by: Stephony Smith / Jeremy Stover

Pack up all your tears
Bury the past
Send them away
Don't let 'em hold you back
Love will find you again
You'll find another way to begin
And you'll trust in someone
Your day will come

Chorus
Throw it on the line
Let your heart break down
Know that at the right time
Love is gonna come around
Open up your soul and
Let the moment hold you
Don't push it away
Oh I know you know
You belong in the sun
Your day will come

Don't go back there
Don't tear yourself apart
Just listen to you
Remember who you are
Wait for true love
What's one more day
You'll find the one
Your day will come

Chorus
Throw it on the line
Let your heart break down
Know that at the right time
Love is gonna come around
Open up your soul and
Let the moment hold you
Don't push it away
Oh I know you know
You belong in the sun
Your day will come


Bridge
Pack up all your tears
Bury the past
Send them away

Chorus

. . .


Lyrics by: Brett James / Hillary Lindsey / Angelo

Road blocks, red lights
Dang brakes, that's life
People say what they want
I don't care it's just talk

Go, let's start this show

Chorus
I ain't gonna let 'em hurt me now
They ain't gonna break me down
I ain't gonna let 'em kick me around
No one's gonna take my crown
Hey nothin's gonna break me down

Got my back against the wall
Cities rise, cities fall
Reckless ride, wild abandon
I'll be the one left standin'

No you can't roll this stone

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
I might trip up and I might stumble
But you won't ever see me crumble
Oh, oh…

I ain't gonna let 'em hurt me now
They ain't gonna break me down
I ain't gonna let 'em kick me around
No one's gonna take my crown

Repeat Chorus

Nothin's gonna break me down

. . .


Lyrics by: Wynonna Judd / Gordon Kennedy / Wayne Kirkpatrick

How do you do it anyway?
Like there ain't nothing to it
To make me stay

No tricks with smoke and mirrors
Not anything up your sleeve
A second look and it can't be clearer
It's no mystery

Chorus
It's in the way you love
It's in the little things you say
It's in the way you live
And give your heart away
It's in the chance you took
It's in the way you look at me
That sets you a world apart
And makes you who you are
And you are beautiful
You are

Pressed on my soul
Your fingerprint
Going where no one's ever been
Well, I don't know how
But I know you're in it
My life, my world, my dreams
I try but I just can't pin it
Down to one thing

Chorus

. . .


Lyrics by: Katherine Darnell

What do you do when you're scared inside?
When all of your feelings just seem to collide
Emotions just seem to let go
All of your tears always follow

All of these things that you're feeling deep down
And you realize that you're calling out loud

Chorus
I love Thee
Rescue me
Shine your light lead me home
Lord, all I need is your love
I love Thee
Rescue me
Shine your light lead me home
Lord, all I need is your love
Rescue me, rescue me

What do you do when the path leads nowhere?
When you need someone to be there
Now you're afraid of what's gonna come
And now there's nowhere to run

All of these things that you're feeling deep down
Then you realize that you're calling out loud

Chorus

Bridge
Oh it's love's sweet salvation
With Christ the Blessed Lamb
We can get through anything as long as it's you and me

Repeat Chorus
