Stephen Wiley “Bible Break”

[Chorus]
Praise the Lord, for goodness sake
We’re all gonna take a Bible break
I said, Praise the Lord, for goodness sake
We’re all gonna take a Bible break
So when your fingers start to pop and you’re feet start to tap
You’re listening to the righteous rap

[Verse 1]
Listen friends, lend an ear
Because faith comes by the words ya hear
I’m not talking jump, I’m not talking jive
But I’ve got a message to make you live
If you’re red, yellow, black, or white
Everybody is a star in Jesus’ sight
He loves you so, He came into this world
To give his love for every boy and girl
He loves you, he loves you
Don’t you know that Jesus loves you?
I took a look in the Bible book
Just to see what I could see
I saw that Jesus loves everyone
From the Eskimo to the Pygmy
There’s a special message in this song that we want everyone to know
And that’s Jesus loves everyone, because the Bible tells me so

[Chorus 2]
It says that I’m a winner, not a loser
I am the head, and I’m not the tail
If the prison door is open my friend, whatcha doing in jail?
I’m a winner, not a loser
I’m the head, and not the tail
If the prison door is open, whatcha doing in jail?
Everybody!
Winner, not a loser
Head, and not the tail
If the prison door is open, whatcha doing in jail?
Because Jesus paid your bail!
Everybody say J-E-S-U-S
Everybody say J-E-S-U-S

[Interlude]
Psalm 150 says let’s praise the king of kings
On the cymbals, trumpets, and the organs, the instruments with strings

[Verse 2]
Signs follow what you preach if it’s the Word of God you teach
Signs follow what you preach if it’s the Word of God that you teach
The Bible is the Holy Book, so let’s open it up and take a look
We’ve got Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers
Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Ruth
First and Second Samuel, First and Second Kings, First and Second Chronicles
Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Job, Psalm, Proverbs
Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, Isaiah, Jeremiah
Lamentations, Ezekiel
And then we’ve got
Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi
New Testament
Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, Romans, First and Second Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, First and Second Thessalonians
First and Second Timothy, Titus, Philemon
Hebrews, James, First and Second Peter, First and Second, Third John, Jude, to Revelation

[Verse 3]
The Word’s gonna save this nation
If we learn the Word from Genesis to Revelation
God sent His Son to alleviate hurt
To redeem us all from the curse
From sickness Jesus gave us health
And from poverty He gave you wealth
From the curse of the law I’m redeemed
And now I’m free to pursue my dream
To be a success, to be the best
To be the head and not the tail and nothing less you see
The devil’s not what he used to be
Cause when I speak the Word he’s got to flee
He’s finally thrown in the fiery lake
For eternity, the devil will bake
And all my days I will proclaim everything that have is in Jesus’ name
So throw your hands in the air
And praise the Lord because you don’t have a care
His yoke is easy and His burden is light
If you’re a child of God just say “all right!!”

[Verse 4]
I learned my lesson now I take
Time out each day for a Bible break
Because the Bible is the holy book
Just open it up and take a look
I learned my lesson cause I take
Time out each day for a Bible break
God sent His Son to alleviate hurt
To redeem us all from the curse
For sickness Jesus gave us health
And from poverty He gave you wealth
From the curse of the law I’m redeemed
And now I’m free to pursue my dream
To be a success, to be the best
To be the head and not the tail and nothing less you see
The devil’s not what he used to be
Cause when I speak the Word he’s got to flee
He’s finally thrown in the fiery lake
For eternity, the devil will bake
And all my days I will proclaim everything that have is in Jesus’ name
So throw your hands in the air
And praise the Lord because you don’t have a care
His yoke is easy and His burden is light
If you’re a child of God just say “all right!!”

“Sometimes by Step” by Rich Mullins

Sometimes the night was beautiful
Sometimes the sky was so far away
Sometimes it seemed to stoop so close
You could touch it but your heart would break
Sometimes the morning came too soon
Sometimes the day could be so hot
There was so much work left to do
But so much You’d already done

Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
And I will seek You in the morning
And I will learn to walk in Your ways
And step by step You’ll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days

Sometimes I think of Abraham
How one star he saw had been lit for me
He was a stranger in this land
And I am that, no less than he
And on this road to righteousness
Sometimes the climb can be so steep
I may falter in my steps
But never beyond Your reach

Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
I will seek You in the morning
And I will learn to walk in Your ways
And step by step You’ll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days

And I will follow You all of my days
And I will follow You all of my days
And step by step You’ll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days
And I will follow You all of my days
(Sometimes the night was beautiful)
And I will follow You all of my days
(Sometimes the night . . .)
(Sometimes the night was beautiful)
And I will follow You all of my days
(. . . Was beautiful)
(Sometimes the night was beautiful)
And I will follow You all of my days
(So beautiful)
And I will follow You all of my days
And I will follow You all of my days
(Oh God, you are my God)
And I will follow You all of my days
(Oh God, you are my God)
And I will follow You all of my days
And I will follow You all of my days
(Sometimes the night was beautiful)
And I will follow You all of my days
(Sometimes the night . . .)
And I will follow You all of my days

Mark 2: King James Version

2 And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house.

² And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.

³ And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.

⁴ And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

⁵ When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.

⁶ But there was certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

⁷ Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?

⁸ And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?

⁹ Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?

“Goodness of God” by Bethel Music

I love You, Lord
For Your mercy never fails me
All my days, I’ve been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In the darkest night
You are close like no other
I’ve known You as a Father
I’ve known You as a Friend
And I have lived in the goodness of God (yeah)

And all my life You have been faithful (oh)
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God (yeah)

‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me (oh-oh)

‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It keeps running after me

And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
(I’m gonna sing, I’m gonna sing)

And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God

You were the Word at the beginning
One with God the Lord Most High
Your hidden glory in creation
Now revealed in You our Christ

What a beautiful Name it is
The Name of Jesus Christ my King
What a beautiful Name it is
Nothing compares to this
What a beautiful Name it is

So Jesus You brought heaven down
My sin was great Your love was greater
What could separate us now

The veil tore before You
You silence the boast of sin and grave
The heavens are roaring
The praise of Your glory
For You are raised to life again

Now and forever God You reign
Yours is the kingdom
Yours is the glory
Yours is the Name above all names

“Lead Me to the Cross” by Hillsong UNITED

Savior I come, quiet my soul
Remember redemption’s hill
Where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom

Everything I once held dear
I count it all as loss

Lead me to the cross where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees, Lord, I lay me down
Rid me of myself, I belong to You
Oh, lead me
Lead me to the cross

You were as I, tempted and tried
You are, the word became flesh
Bore my sin and death
Now You’re risen

Everything I once held dear
I count it all as loss

Lead me to the cross where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees, Lord, I lay me down
Rid me of myself, I belong to You
Oh, lead me
Lead me to the cross

To Your heart
To Your heart
Lead me to Your heart
Lead me to Your heart

Lead me to the cross where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees, Lord, I lay me down
Rid me of myself, I belong to You
Oh, lead me
Lead me

Lead me to the cross where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees, Lord, I lay me down
Rid me of myself, I belong to You
Oh, lead me
Lead me to the cross

“Graves Into Gardens” by Elevation Worship, Brandon Lake

I searched the world
But it couldn’t fill me
Man’s empty praise
And treasures that fade
Are never enough
Then You came along
And put me back together
And every desire
Is now satisfied
Here in Your love (hey)
Oh, there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord, there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You
I’m not afraid
To show You my weakness
My failures and flaws
Lord, You’ve seen ’em all
And You still call me friend
‘Cause the God of the mountain
Is the God of the valley
There’s not a place
Your mercy and grace
Won’t find me again
Oh, there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord, there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You
Oh, there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord, there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You
You turn mourning to dancing
You give beauty for ashes
You turn shame into glory
You’re the only one who can
You turn mourning to dancing
You give beauty for ashes
You turn shame into glory
You’re the only one who can
You turn graves into garden
You turn bones into armies
You turn seas into highways
You’re the only one who can
You’re the only one who can
Oh, there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord, there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You
Oh, there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord, there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You
You turn graves into gardens
You turn bones into armies
You turn seas into highways
You’re the only one who can
You turn graves into gardens
You turn bones into armies
You turn seas into highways
You’re the only one who can
You’re the only one who can
You’re the only one who can

“Be Thou My Vision” by Audrey Assad

Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best thought, by day or by night
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light
Be Thou my wisdom, and Thou my true word
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord
Thou my great Father, and I Thy true son
Thou in me dwelling and I with Thee one
Riches I heed not, nor vain, empty praise
Thou mine inheritance, now and always
Thou and Thou only first in my heart
High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art
High King of heaven, my victory won
May I reach heaven’s joys, O bright heaven’s sun
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall
Still be my vision, O ruler of all
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall
Still be my vision, O ruler of all

“Friends, there is no such thing as “Christian” rock. This is a lie of the devil. We are not to transform ourselves to the world, for the Bible says that as God’s people we “are at enmity with the world.” There is no “Christian” whiskey, no “Christian” pornography, no “Christian” adultery, and no “Christian” rock.” — Texe Marrs

“Oceans” (Where Feet May Fail) by Hillsong UNITED
You call me out upon the waters
The great unknown where feet may fail
And there I find You in the mystery
In oceans deep my faith will stand
And I will call upon Your Name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
Your grace abounds in deepest waters
Your sovereign hand will be my guide
Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me
You’ve never failed and You won’t start now
So I will call upon Your Name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
And You are mine
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Sirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour

Keep my eyes above the waves
