When will we know?
When will we know?
In what direction we are going
When will we know?
If this uncertainty will end
When will we know?
If our thoughts will come to pass
When will we know?
If our dreams will be reality
When will we know?
That our faith is our belief
When will we know?
Whether we are being deceived
When will we realize?
That Yeshua is the only truth
When will we realize?
It is through Him that we gain eternal life
When will we know?
That He is our Salvation
When will we know?
That accepting Him is our only hope
When will we know …….

KEEP THAT DREAM ALIVE
Got dreams of rising to great success
Got dreams of goals running through my head
Got dreams of that one special love in my life
Got dreams in my mind as I lay in bed at night
Without these dreams I would not have any goals
Without these dreams I’d fear the unknown
Without these dreams my life would stagnate
Without these dreams I couldn’t appreciate
I must never give up this great hope
Even when difficulties make it so hard to cope
Dreams……… I need to keep that dream alive
Dreams........ They tell much about my life
Dreams of you forever on my mind
Dreams that last forever in time
Dreams of our future and life together
Those dreams will stay in my mind forever.
Keep that dream - keep it alive
Our dreams we need to coincide
To make our dreams our reality
Our dreams together of just you and me……..

MY SPECIAL LADY
I close my eyes and what do I see?
Your eyes, your hair, my special lady,
You bring me love I never knew before,
You are the one I truly adore.
Can’t wait to hold you in my arms once again,
It is on your love that I fully depend,
Any time apart is so difficult to take,
All I can do is be patient and wait.
I close my eyes and what do I see?
Your image in my mind, I clearly see,
The image of your beauty is embedded in my head,
It is only to you that my heart is led.
Such charm and grace, so sweet and kind,
My one greatest love, forever in time,
My special lady, so grateful am I,
You are my partner and best friend for life.
I close my eyes and what do I see,
Visions of your face and exquisite beauty,
I close my eyes and see you there next to me,,
In my heart forever, you’re my special lady.

I Got Them Lovin’ You Blues
Standard A, D9, E9 Blues progression
Verse 1
You hug me, kiss me and tease me
The whole night long
Ooh my pretty baby
Why you do me so wrong
You say you’ll be here at midnight
As the clock keeps ticking along
Ooh my pretty baby
When r you comin’ home
I’m bout ready to say good night
Can’t wait to hold you tight
I got them lovin’ you blues one more time again
Verse 2
It’s one o’clock in the morning
You still keep me hangin’ on
I can’t wait any longer
I need you back at home
It’s two o’clock in the morning
Now the tears I can’t control
Bring me the love you promised
I’m so lonely and cold
How long must I wait
How much can I anticipate
I got them lovin’ you blues one more time again
Verse 3
How long must I wait
To hold you in my arms?
How long must I wait
To feel your lovin’ charms?
Don’t make me wait no longer
I’m going to burst inside
These feelings that I got
I can no longer hide
So please take away
These lovin’ you blues
And bring me the lovin’ I need - only from you

A Life Without You
A life without you is no life at all
The best times ever, that I can recall
Are when I followed the righteous path you gave
And realized how blessed I am to be saved
To be cleansed and reborn, so grateful I am
To have been chosen by you to fulfill your plan
The covenant you gave and promised to me
Are so true, as they are, forever binding.
Yeshua, I cannot change my past mistakes
You’ve shown me a new path that I must take
So blessed am I to know you, my king
You are to me, my everything
The one with whom I can share my innermost thoughts
The one who has given me the shalom that I’ve sought
Abba, our Father brought this gift of true love
Given His Son from the heavens above
A life without you is no life at all
Yeshua, Yeshua, you are my all
My life I now dedicate only to you
My heart and my soul belong to you

How can you justify?
How can you justify
All the things you’ve done wrong?
How can you tell me
To leave you alone?
Lost all my money
As you left me so broke.
Now as I try to recover
It’s so hard to maintain hope.
How can you justify
The pain you caused to me?
All I tried to do
Was help you with your needs.
How can you justify
All you took from me?
When I gave you all I could
Of my love and money.
Justify yourself
Cause to me you cannot,
I’ll give you one more chance
So try your best shot.
But you’d better do me right
Cause I can’t take it anymore.
This is the last time
I promise you - no more
You can’t justify
Your past mistakes,
Just take it as it is – that’s all it takes.
Make your amends and show sincerity,
Don’t live in the past, just show humility.
How can you justify
All the things you’ve done wrong?
You cannot justify the past for so long.
How can you justify……………………?
How can the world justify
All the damage that's been done?
Little innocent children
Being killed, with nowhere to run?
So many inequities - actions without reason
Things occurring all around with no rhyme or reason.
Plots made up by insane, power hungry, leaders,
Minds controlled by greed as they think they get nearer,
To their goals of taking over more and more,
Never enough for all they hope for.
How can this be justified........?
It can't.................

Eretz Yisrael
Verse 1:
Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael
The home G-d gave us is Eretz Yisrael
Our land given to us by Adonai
Where Jews always have a place to reside
The center of the world, Yerushalayim
The apple of G-d’s eye, Jerusalem
( go to chorus – then verse 2)
Verse 2:
We must always protect our Holy land
All Jews and Gentiles must now join hands
To protect this great and Holy place
That has withstood attacks throughout the ages
The anointed land, a gift from above
Sanctified and blessed with Yeshua’s love
(go to chorus – then repeat to end)
Chorus:
Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, How I love this Holy place
Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, Deserving of praise
Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, Our Lord is One
Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, Where we join as one
