["He Gave Her Water" Lead: Gary Moyers]

Chorus:

Oh, Jesus (he gave her water) he gave her water (he gave her water)
You know, my Jesus (he gave her water) gave her water (he gave her water)
Oh, Jesus, (he gave her water) gave her water (he gave her water)
and it was not from the well

Repeat chorus

Well there was a woman from Samaria
Who came from the well to get some water
And there she met a stranger
And he did her story tell
She left my savior singing
She came back to him bringing
The time she had living water
And it was not from the well

Repeat Chorus

More than a friend
Yes, he's more than a friend to me ('cause he gave up his life)
'Cause he gave up his life (and at oh)
and at oh such a price
and he's more than a friend to me

People keep on searchin' for that perfect friend (perfect friend)
Who'll they'll trust with their compassion and their confidence
'Cause they need someone to love them in the deepest way (the deepest way)
Hear what I'm about to say

He was willing to give his life, ultimate sacrifice
He was God made flesh and put to death for me
Now you know it's easy to see

That he's more than a friend
More than a friend
Yes, he's more than a friend to me

And at oh such a price
And he's more than a friend
More than a friend
More than a friend to me (more than a friend)

Rescue, rescue
Rescue, rescue

Lord, you know everything I've done
Every thought I've had, you know every one
And Lord, you know every time I fall
Still you come to my rescue when I call

And Lord, you hear every idle word
Every thoughtless deed
How it seems absurd
That, Lord, you give, not what I am due
But mercy, mercy, aw, mercy
You come to my rescue

You come to my rescue (rescue)
You come to my rescue (rescue)
Thank you, Father (rescue)
For comin' to my rescue (rescue)

The angels praise his name (praise his name)
The angels praise his name (praise his name)
The angels praise his name (praise his name)
Well, all right, come on and praise him, uh-huh

["Criminal On the Cross" Lead: Barry Wilson]

Well, it was many years ago, in the time of the Bible
that they took him up to Calvary (up to Calvary)
They should have let him go, but instead they chose Barabus
just to set another criminal free (just to set him free)
When they crucified the ever-lovin' carin' Master
with compassion flowing from His eyes
Well, He said to a thief who was begging Him for mercy
that "Today you´ll live in Paradise."

Hmm, I´m saved (I'm saved, I'm saved) like the criminal on the cross
Praise God, I´m saved, yes, (I'm saved, I'm saved) no more to suffer loss
Well, he said I´d live in Paradise
And He's taken care of the cost
Hallelujah, I´m saved (I'm saved, I'm saved) like the criminal on the cross
I´m saved (I'm saved, I'm saved) like the criminal on the cross

["Let's Get Together" Lead: Gary Moyers]

Well, it's time we stopped the fighting and start giving our love to each other
(give it to them, give it to them, we've got to learn to love them)
Oh, don't you know that they're never gonna see
how we're lovin' our Lord unless we're givin' our love to each other
(let's give them our love)

Let's get together
Let's stop the fighting
Let's start uniting
Whoa-whoa-oh

Repeat 5 times
