Album Lyrics

1979 - Harvest

1. Love is Calling

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Love is calling, Come unto me,

And I will give you rest.

If the burden of the night

Has caused you to fear

Only love will calm and caress.


Listen to the call of love,

Come to its side,

For in love fear has no place to hide.

Listen to the call of love,

Come to its side,

For in love fear has no place to hide.


Jesus is calling,

Come unto Me,

In My love you'll find perfect peace.

If you're weary from your labor,

Heavy in your heart,

Take the yoke of the bright and morning star.


Listen to the call of love,

Come to its side,

For in love fear has no place to hide.

Listen to the call of love,

Come to its side.

In you let His perfect love abide.

2. Resurrection Morning

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Lift up your heads, the marriage feast is coming,

In the righteousness of the morning.

Saints rejoice, and give God the glory.

The Lamb has come, the bride now is ready.


Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

Resurrection morning,

Resurrection morning,

Resurrection morning.


So come and go in the Lamb.

The Word of God has come to smite the nation.

By His power He rules the fall of Satan.

His armies march, they're dressed in white linen.

The Word of God has come in salvation.


Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

Resurrection morning,

Resurrection morning,

Resurrection morning.

So come and go in the Lamb.


Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

Resurrection morning,

Resurrection morning,

Resurrection morning.

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

3. The Time Seems Right

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Cloudy days, cold hard nights,

If the Lord's gonna come,

The time seems right.

People are fallin' everywhere,

Some won't come, some don't care,

The time seems right.


Brotherhood seems a word now gone.

The love for God can find no home,

The time seems right.

Voices rise throughout the world,

Some are strong, some not heard,

The time seems right.


The sun breaks forth in morning light,

Some men try to save the night,

Strong men start to run their course with joy.

The people of God unite in song,

The broken cries of love now gone,

The Son of God revealed to all the world.


Crowded hearts, full of pride,

The scales of death runnin' high,

The time seems right.

A breath of air can rise no more,

The men are gone from wagin' war,

The time seems right.


Children outside all alone,

A piece of bread turns to stone,

The time seems right.

People stand still to the open sky,

If the Lord's gonna come,

The time seems right.


Chorus:

The sun breaks forth in morning light,

Some men try to save the night,

Strong men start to run their course with joy.

The people of God unite in song,

The broken cries of love now gone,

The Son of God revealed to all the world.


Repeat chorus.

4. Where Would I Be?

Words and Music by Ed Kerr

Where would I be if the Lord hadn't saved me?

Suffering alone in sin.

But he loved me, when He died for all my sin.

By His blood I can live again.


Where would I be if the Lord hadn't suffered?

He looked past the cross with joy.

And He loved me, He laid down His life for me.

Through His blood I have been set free.


Where are you now?

Do you stand redeemed before Him?

Blameless before His throne?

Let Him cleanse you, He will help you start anew.

Just believe what His blood can do.


For He loves you, He will help you start anew.

Just believe what His blood can do.

5. The Love of God

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

The love of God, it's a funny, funny thing,

Makes the blind to see, the lame to walk again.

It's funny, it's a funny thing.


Deep within your heart there's a little place for love,

Soft and warm within, a special gift above.

It's funny, it's a funny thing.


God in His wisdom sent His Son for us,

That we might see how much He cares,

That on that day Jesus died on Calvary,

That we might share His love eternally.


Well, the strangest things are done when a person is in love,

Everything he says, everything he does,

It's funny, it's a funny thing.


And it's easy how to tell if a person is in love,

His face is all aglow, like our Father up above.

It's funny, it's a funny thing.


Love isn't something you can buy, my friend.

Just fall upon your knees and pray.

Lift your hands, and let's all just praise His name,

And thank Him for the love He gives each day.


For on that day Jesus died on Calvary,

That we might share His love eternally.

6. The Sounds of the Lord

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

The sounds of the voice of the Lord can be heard.

Throughout all the nations on earth.

The mountains, the trees, the hills clap their hands,

Prepare ye the way of the Lord.


The words that He said broke forth into light.

He spoke, and my heart leaped for joy.

The wind and the rain, they burst into flight.

We can sing hallelujah ever more.


His armies will march into battle one day,

Full of the power of God.

Then Satan will fall, and we'll all hear him say,

That Jesus Christ, He is Lord.


I believe that the Lord will return like He said,

Call all His children by name.

A shout will ring out as they rise from the dead,

Singin' worthy the Lamb that was slain.


I believe that I shall see the goodness of my Lord.

I believe that I shall live in the land of the living.


For I know Whom I have believed in.

I know that He is my Lord,

And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord all my days.


For I know Whom I have believed in.

I know that He is my Lord,

And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord all my days.

7. Holy Spirit

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Holy Spirit, Dove of life,

Come land on me.

Holy Spirit, give me the power of the Trinity.


Alleluia, alleluia.

Alleluia, alleluia.


Holy Spirit, open my eyes and let me see.

Holy Spirit, Dove of life come land on me.


Alleluia, alleluia.

Alleluia, alleluia.


Chorus:

By Your Son we're one, and we recognize Your love.

Spread Your wings of power and descend, O Holy Dove.

As in the men before, and in this very hour,

God has revealed Himself and filled us with power.


Holy Spirit, guide my life eternally.

Holy Spirit, Dove of life come land on me.


Alleluia, alleluia.

Alleluia, alleluia.


Repeat chorus.

8. Yesterday

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Yesterday is a day I'll be remembering.

Yesterday is a day I won't forget.

Yesterday I met a man who lives a life I have never had,

A life full of love, a life full of joy and peace when things go bad.


Yesterday is a day I met the Master.

Yesterday is the day I found new life.

Now every day as I rise to face the world,

I'll see a new and brighter day,

A day full of love and joy because of Him.


Jesus is the light of the world,

The bright and morning star.

Let your light shine before all men,

And seek the way pilgrims trod.


Yesterday will forever be tomorrow.

Now all my days will be filled with thoughts beyond.

So come along and walk with me,

To a land of love, a home eternally,

Where Jesus is Lord, the mighty King of kings.


Now every day as I rise to face the world,

I'll see a new and brighter day,

A day full of love and joy because of Him.

9. Thank You, Jesus

Words and Music by Paul Wilbur

Sometimes I wonder why Jesus died for me.

Why did He give Himself to be nailed to a tree?

I have no answer, just a prayer to offer up.

Thank You, Jesus, for Your sweet, sweet love.

Thank You, Jesus, for Your sweet, sweet love.


Sometimes I'm lonely, but I know I'm never alone.

He walks beside me and I know I am His own.

His face glows brighter than the stars that shine above.

Thank You, Jesus, for Your sweet, sweet love.

Thank You, Jesus, for Your sweet, sweet love.


Because He loves us so, He came to set us free.

He paid the debt we owe on dark Calvary,

And through His suffering I'm ransomed from the dead.

Thank You, Jesus, You brought life instead.

Thank You, Jesus, You brought life instead.


Repeat First Stanza

10. Rainy Day

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

The wind is blowin' in my eyes.

The rain is fallin' from the skies.

Clouds are movin' in to take the day.

The air is quickly growin' cold.

My body's tired, my heart is low.

Seems like nothin' ever goes my way.


I don't care my friend,

All I know is when

I gave my heart and my life to Him,

He took my soul, He made me whole.

I will praise Him forevermore.


The sun is slowly goin' down.

Darkness creepin' through the town.

People everywhere have lost their way.

The evening's blinding everyone,

But still a light, it's shinin' on

For those who'll cast their gaze upon the Son.


Chorus:

So sing a song of joy for the night is gone.

The light of love will guide you on.

Lift up your eyes and behold the Christ,

For He alone is Lord.


Repeat chorus.

11. Benediction

Words and Music by Paul Wilbur

May the Lord be gracious unto you.

May His love surround you each day through.

May the peace of God go with you,

And His Spirit live within you.

May the Lord be gracious unto you.


May the Lord be with you every day.

May His lovingkindness be your stay.

When the pain of life would hold you,

May His love always enfold you.

May the Lord be with you every day.

May the Lord be gracious unto you.
