01. At War With War

[chorus]
yeah, at war with war

[chorus 3&4]
yeah at war with war, no more, at war with war.

[verse1]
they seek his life in vein he will not be
denied, he escapes the clutch of sin to be restored
unto his homeland

[chorus-repeat]

They brag the victory, but it comes through love not
hate, see the power comes from the servant who puts
his sword to service
Bridge- Love not your life among us, lay down your
hate for service, the power comes from lifting others,
the weak shall hate mankind. What makes you think
you're powerful, you hate those you see as less but
the more people that you trample, the more you're
bound to trip.

[Chorus-repeat]

Militias of death, people who hate the black
man...what makes you think you're best? take heed of
victories in arenas

[Bridge-Repeat]
[Interlude]
I have made myself a servant to all, that I
might win all the more, now I do this for the Gospel's
sake that I might partake it with you. To the jews I
am a jew, to those under the law as under the law, to
those without the law as without the law, seeking to
serve, to signify.

[Chorus Repeat, Verse 1 Repeat, Interlude, Repeat]

02. Triumph Of Mercy

Weeks of hideous pain bent me down,
doctor gave me asprin to ease the pain,
soon a blood test revealed the brutal force,
I had been inflicted with the worst...luekaemia.
Chemotherapy began the process off,
powerful but destructive drugs infused into my blood.
The only way out, but hideous pain,
cry out to God in the night.
He blesses his children with sleep.
But little did I know that the real pain was coming.
What is known as a bone marrow transplant,
was my only chance they said.
Chemotherapy was just a 1% chance
but if I could find a donor with identical stem cells,
I could have a 25-40% chance of cure, survival.
78% of sufferers never find a donor but something
interesting was there in my case....
God had given me my father's stem cells,
perfect for the transplant.
God doesn't work by percentages.
we trusted God with all our heart
my dad had had skin cancer,
any remaining melanoma would surely have taken my life.
The immense suffering of a bone marrow transplant can
not be put into words.
As I lay in my living nightmare I cried out to God,
who is always there.
Two days had gone past the limit to produce the blood
for me to survive.
Doctors with empty faces entered the room to share the
devastating news.
I needed a second transplant or I would surely die.
We were told the second transplant usually didn't
work, but was my only hope.
We needed a miracle from God, we felt his power fill
the room. Peace overcame fear, as we gave up control
to the almighty. Ashtonishment, joy, and disbelief was
felt by family, medical staff and doctors, were
shocked with the realization that the original stem
cells had begun to work. God performed a miracle and
the blood began it's count. Soon the graft had taken I
was on the road home. As I was discharged we prayed
that all would work.
Weeks of pain followed as my body fought to live. The
devastating pain was a real sick affair. I forced
myself on walks and to eat each day, but the immense
pain was more than I can say, was more than I can say.
As I struggled to live on and fight the sickness war
we were told by doctors that the cancer had returned.
Two weeks I was given but we had had enough. We were
ready to hand all to God. No more treatment I annouced
to the cancer doctor. Standing there I was in God's
hands then suddenly one day a double seizure struck me
down. Family gathered round to see my final hours.
Countless damage had racked my body leaving me half
dead. I couldn't walk, I couldn't see, my insides were
badly hurt, it seemed it was the end for me. Warrior
upon warrior around our distant globe kept the vigil
fight of prayer of power that can't be stopped and as
the folks cried out to God, He heard them and I live
to stand for him. A lot more special days. God has
given me peace and comfort all along. As I have cried
out to HIs grace the joy is overwhelming. He has the
power to heal, He has the power to save, as we trust
in his mercy we know that we are safe. I know that I am healed!

03. Welcome To The Palodrome

[chorus]
Welcome to the paladrome, mansions in the sky,
welcome to the paladrome, Lambs book of life

[bridge]
All these problems count for nought, in the
light of eternity.

[Verse 1]
all our cares will be lost, all our fears
will be gone, the pain on which you dwell is useless
to your soul.

[Interlude 1]
he's our healer, our provider, he is
there, in our pain

[Chorus repeat, bridge repeat]
All this flesh will be gone, our mind won't understand
but put your hope in Love, His way will be inveiled

[Interlude 2]
He's our comfort, our great high priest, the ONE we
love, take pain to your knees

[Repeat interlude 1, repeat interlude 2]

04. From Your Side

05. Influence

Those who seek after fame put others down, climb the
heights of your dream to be proclaimed. The world
doesn't need any more stars exalting self. The world
needs more people of faith. Influence in your life, we
done want the fame we want salvation, influence for
the cross, unity of faith across the nations. make the
way of the cross your life goal pull the man from his
grave to be revived. Millions of hopeless troden
people there is hope in the saving blood of Christ, Go
into all the world and preach the gospel to every
listener and to all who believe in Jesus Christ will
be saved but they who do not believe, will be
condemned.
see the light in the eyes of the holyman. can't you
see that the rivers flow within, wby be lost in a sea
of hate and lust, we can tell you the change is now in
Christ.

[Chorus repeat]

Now be born to a new life, certain hell awaites the
lost. The utter pain without God in eternity is more
than a thousand lashes could toll.

[Chorus repeat X 2]

06. Drain Dweller

out of the sewers, out of the drains, life of filth,
possess your brain. Where's your next bed, where's
your next bread. Hide those scar filled veins.
Scramble for money, beg on the streets, looking for
mercy, can you be freed, you've no love in your life,
you were dropped at birth, what is fair about pain,
some just suffer on, somehow I releate to your utter
pain. All I know is this, God is always there, come to
him, cling to him, trust in him, see the change, when
all is lost, read the word, shout to God, and feel the
hope. You're out of the sewers, you're out of the
drains, new birth has come, your life is saved, all
those new friends, those ones who care, their
compassion, comes from God. Show those drug free
veins. You've found love in your life, you were hugged
at rebirth, when you ventured to your new found faith
in Christ, Show those drug free veins!

07. Raw Is The Stonewood Temple

In the midst of the field of life we stand in the
Storms of the dark only salvation brings us light all
Else is false hope. Raw is the stonewood temple,
Stained glass window shining, raw is the stonewood
Temple, light in the midst of dying.
Buffet our bodies in the walk of the light, evil
Cannot break us we're insured with eternal flame, save
Our souls from dying. Die to rise, arise, survive, in
The pain that this life brings, Christ is the only
Hope. we are but dust form of man Don't forget
Eternity
The light, the light, eternity!
We pray the promise of eternal life, we pray the
Promise of abundance, we pray the claim of hree score
Years and ten to live our faith out.

08. Unified Truth

[Chorus]
Unified truth to set free, pounding the wall
obey me, in holy, unified truth we stay. I feel the
force of God all around my side, my sight is lisght by
storm of great unified life. My heart is kept by safe
unfailing words, the wall of hearts, that worship
Christ our Lord. My God sees all men, as equal parts,
within the body of mankind as a global voice, the
joining of all race to stand as one the death of war,
when peace has come to mankind, we are seeing the
revolution of destruction of racial hatred, unified
under God all men are equal in his sight. Blacks ,
Asians, Reds, Jews, Whites [X 4]
I feel hate for hate
my need to care for what afflicts the brothers of man
worldwide. Unity brings a power where all are for the
furthering of mankind as a unified force

09. Visited By An Angel

Visited by an angel, a beautiful love song, surrounded
By a clouded light, the joy was overwhelming, who are
You I mustered, from a shaken breath, I am an Angel
Especially to minister to you today. Don't go away, I
Pleaded I never do, it smiled. Suddenly a vision
Thousands of people who hated me, all around what did
I see, what can man do to you? The awesome presence
Said I fell back in a peace all my fear relieved,
Relieved.
From my bed I arose with a joy filled heart of praise
I laughed until I cried, I could not believe my state,
I fell down to the floor, an utter laughing mess.
Visited by an angel, a very special gift, months of
Pain have followed as I have fought a cancer plight
But I was sent an angel to show I had a strength, God
Showed me my special friend that day, that day!
