(WE'VE COME THIS FAR BY FAITH)
We've come this far by faith
Leaning on the Lord
Trust His holy word
He never failed me yet
Oh, Oh, Oh can't turn around
Come too far by faith
(I'VE DECIDED TO MAKE JESUS MY CHOICE)
Some folks would rather
Have houses and land
Some folks choose silver
And Gold
These things they treasure
And forget about their souls
I've decided to make Jesus my choice
(LORD KEEP ME DAY BY DAY)
Lord keep me day by day
In a pure and perfect way
I want to live
I want to live on
In a building not made by hand
Lord keep my body strong
So that I can do no wrong
Give me grace
Just to run this Christian race
In a building not made by hand
(I'll FLY AWAY)
Oh, I'll fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away
When I die
Hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away
I'll fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away
When I die
Hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away
Everybody will be happy
Will be happy over there
We will sing and shout God's praise
Everybody will be happy over there
So glad, I'm so glad
So glad, I'm so glad
So glad, I'm so glad
Everybody will be happy over there
[Vamp 1:]
I'll fly away
[Vamp 2:]
It will be all over
Everybody will be happy over there
