Album Lyrics

1983 - Send Us to the World

1. The Blood of the Lamb

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

I'm weakened by the raging war,

Standing when I feel no more like standing

For the things that I believe.

Surrounded by the lives of men

Who stood when hope seemed at an end,

Darkness all around, still I see.

The mountains moving in the night

Don't stand a chance to drag me down

'Cause I'm a mountain climber.


I've learned the secret of those men who

Stared at death and conquered sin and

I'm gonna' shout it from the mountain.


They overcame him through the blood of the Lamb.

They overcame him through the Word that He'd said.

They overcame him through the Name

Of God's own Son, Jesus Christ.

They overcame him through the blood and the Word

And the Name of Jesus Christ.


No matter how the days may go, He said the war

Would never slow 'til that final day

When Jesus comes.

So lift your eyes and gaze on Him,

Lay aside each weight of sin,

Let your spirit soar where eagles fly.

The mountains moving in the night

Don't stand a chance to drag you down

'Cause you are now a mountain climber.

Spread your wings and catch the wind.

Stare at death and conquer sin and

Shout it from the mountain.


They overcame him through the blood of the Lamb.

They overcame him through the Word that He'd said.

They overcame him through the Name

Of God's own Son, Jesus Christ.

They overcame him through the blood and the Word

And the Name of Jesus Christ.


We overcame him through the blood of the Lamb.

We overcame him through the Word that He'd said.

We overcame him through the Name

Of God's own Son, Jesus Christ.

We overcame him through the blood and the Word

And the Name of Jesus Christ.


They overcame him through the blood of the Lamb.

They overcame him through the Name

Of God's own Son, Jesus Christ.

They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb.

2. If We Don't Believe (Send Us to the World)

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

People are cryin', the children are dyin'

Who don't even know.

We're killin' by millions

Brothers and sisters; our hearts are so cold.


While Christians are sittin'; talkin' 'bout heaven

And when they will go,

The world and its people move faster and deeper

To a livin' death below.


If we don't believe, then how will they know?

How will they hear if we never go?

O Lord, send us to the world.

If we don't believe, then how will they see?

How will they know that they can be free?

O Lord, send us to the world.


If we are the light of the world then what right

Do we have to not go?

He's given us power to conquer the hour,

So why don't we go?


He's called us as soldiers, given us orders

To tear down the walls.

We'll sing and we'll shout,

We'll carry them out, and offer them to the Lord.


If we don't believe, then how will they know?

How will they hear if we never go?

O Lord, send us to the world.

If we don't believe, then how will they see?

How will they know that they can be free?

O Lord, send us to the world.


We've got to believe, we've got to believe,

We've got to believe. Send us to the world.

We've got to believe, we've got to believe,

We've got to believe. Send us to the world.


If we don't believe, then how will they know?

How will they hear if we never go?

O Lord, send us to the world.

If we don't believe, then how will they see?

How will they know that they can be free?

O Lord, send us to the world.

Send us to the world. Send us to the world.

3. Jehovah is Our Deliverer

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Let all who know the Lord as their God

Bow before Him in worship.

And lift your voice and tremble before Him.

Jehovah is our deliverer.


Hallelujah, Hallelujah,

We praise the name of Jehovah.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah,

We praise the name of Jehovah.


Behold Him now in all of His glory,

King of Kings forever.

Our eyes have seen His glorious power.

Jesus reigns as our Savior.


Hallelujah, Hallelujah,

We praise the name of Jehovah.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah,

4. Holy Lamb

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Holy Lamb, God's only sacrifice,

You came and You poured Your love on me.

To understand just why You really died for us

Would take more time than this life could ever give.


Sweet mighty God, ruler of all the earth,

Cause Your fire to spread throughout my heart,

And burn with love each and every wicked way.

Then raise me once again a man of praise.


So I'll give to You the praises of my life,

All the glory that might ever come my way.

And I'll sing to You sweet melodies of love.

Remembering what You've done for me,

I'll offer up the sacrifice of praise.


Holy Lamb, God's only sacrifice,

You conquered death and now You reign as King.

So here am I, offering You my heart, my life,

Knowing it's the only gift to bring.


So I'll give to You the praises of my life,

All the glory that might ever come my way.

And I'll sing to You sweet melodies of love.

Remembering what You've done for me,

I'll offer up the sacrifice of praise.


I'll give to You the praises of my life,

All the glory that might ever come my way.

I'll sing to You sweet melodies of love.

Remembering what You've done for me,

I'll offer up the sacrifice of praise.

I'll offer up the sacrifice of praise.

5. Holy is the Lord

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord.


The eyes of the Lord search to and fro

Throughout the worlds of our hearts

Looking for someone who longs to live with Him

In righteousness and majesty where angels bow and sing.


Holy, holy, holy is the Lord

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord

Holy is, holy is, holy is the Lord.

6. The Army of the Lord

Words and Music by Brent Lamb

Are we walking into the enemy's camp,

Laying our weapons down,

Shedding our armor as we go,

Leaving it on the ground?

We've gotta' be strong in the power of His might,

Prove to the enemy,

We are the army of the Lord and we've won the victory.


All around us a war's goin' on,

Between the wrong and the right.

We gotta' choose which side we're on,

The darkness or the light.


'Cause some of the soldiers of the Lord,

Just don't realize that the captain

Of the army of darkness

Has come to blind their eyes.


Are we walking into the enemy's camp,

Laying our weapons down,

Shedding our armor as we go,

Leaving it on the ground?

We've gotta' be strong in the power of His might,

Prove to the enemy,

We are the army of the Lord and we've won the victory.


Can't you see that we're in a battle,

And there is no place to hide?

Our shields of faith are full of darts.

They're shootin' from every side.

Just shake out the darts and run right at 'em,

And remember Who you're fighting for,

Don't fall asleep, 'cause if they catch you,

They'll tag you prisoner of war.


Are we walking into the enemy's camp,

Laying our weapons down,

Shedding our armor as we go,

Leaving it on the ground?

We've gotta' be strong in the power of His might,

Prove to the enemy,

We are the army of the Lord and we've won the victory.


Are we walking into the enemy's camp,

Laying our weapons down,

Shedding our armor as we go,

Leaving it on the ground?

We've gotta' be strong in the power of His might,

Prove to the enemy,

We are the army of the Lord and we've won the victory.


We've won the victory.

7. I Will Worship the Lord

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

As we gather in the presence of the Lord our mighty God,

Our hearts begin to tremble, our spirits stand in awe.

The ruler of the universe has called us to His throne,

And He longs for us to worship Him in beauty and in song.


But there's times I feel so far away,

My heart is full of pain,

My spirit seems so lifeless,

It's hard to speak His name.


But then somehow I lift my voice and say, "I love you, Lord,"

And He comes and takes me by His love and leads me to His home.


And I will worship the Lord, I will worship the Lord,

I will worship the Lord, I will worship the Lord.


Then deep within my spirit as I worship Him in truth,

I realize that all my fears are slowly being loosed.

The freedom that I've longed to know I've gained it now through praise,

So I'll make my life a sacrifice of worship to His name.


I will worship the Lord, I will worship the Lord,

I will worship the Lord, I will worship the Lord, the Lord.


I will worship the Lord, I will worship the Lord,

I will worship the Lord, I will worship the Lord.

Worship the Lord, worship the Lord, worship the Lord, the Lord.

8. Search Me, Oh God

Words and Music by Ed Kerr

Search me, O God, and know my heart,

Try me and know my mind.

See if there be any way in me

That keeps me from followin' You.

My heart has deceived me many times before,

I've walked in my own desires.

Strip away all of my selfishness,

Clothe me with more of You.


For Lord, You have searched me, You know me well,

And yet You invite me to come to the mountain

You dwell on in holiness where my heart and Yours can be one.


Search me, O God, reveal to me the power You've placed within me.

It's time that my heart be completely Yours,

Time that I gave You control.

So take my heart, teach me to love You.

Make me more like You and change my heart.

Help me to know You.

Shine Your light into my heart.


For Lord, You have searched me, You know me well,

And yet You invite me to come to the mountain

You dwell on in holiness where my heart and Yours can be one.


Lord, You have searched me, You know me well,

And yet You invite me to come to the mountain

You dwell on in holiness where my heart and Yours can be one.

9. Forever in Paradise

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Soon I'm gonna' meet my Lord,

See Him face to face.

He'll lead me through the fire of love

To see if I'm gonna' stand.


I often wonder if He'll speak when

He looks into my eyes,

If only His gaze would be enough

To say you'll live or you'll die.

O Lord, I want to live with You

Forever in paradise.


I've tasted fame enough to know

The glory soon fades away.

All the money and the lights the world can give

Won't take me high enough on that day.


It doesn't matter if you're diggin' dirt or sittin'

High on the penthouse floor.

The rich, the poor together they'll burn when

He looks on the heart of each man.

Oh Lord, I want to live with You forever in paradise.


Well I'm not afraid of the judgement day

'Cause He lives within my heart.

And I can't wait to see Him face to face,

I'm gonna' sing Him a brand new song.

And I don't care what the world may say,

I'm gonna' live my life for God,

'Cause He's building me a place where I can dance

And sing my songs.


When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound and

Time shall be no more and the morning breaks eternal

Bright and fair

And the saved of earth shall gather over

On the other shore and the roll is called up yonder

I'll be there.


When the roll is called up yonder

When the roll is called up yonder

When the roll is called up yonder

When the roll is called up yonder O Lord

I want to live with You forever in paradise.

10. I Am the Lord

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

You who would follow me and say that you want to be

A man who knows and loves the Lord,

A stranger in this present world,

I wonder do you really understand what you're sayin'?


Have you ever wondered why I sent My son, a man to die?

I turned My back when sin came in that you might no longer live in sin.

The sacrifice He made upon the tree,

It's never changed you.


I am the Lord and I want you to know Me.

I am the Lord. I am your Father and

I want you to love Me.

Oh, do you know Me? Do you really love Me?


Soon I'll gather unto me a people full of purity

Who've trusted, fought, and overcome

The forces of the evil one.

They worship, adore My holy name.

They love Me.


Have you counted all the cost?

To follow Me might mean the loss

Of something that you now hold dear.

Can you trust or will you fear

The moment I look upon your heart?

will you know Me?


I am the Lord and I want you to know Me.

I am the Lord. I am your Father and

I want you to love Me.

Oh, do you know Me? Do you really love Me?


Oh, do you know Me?

Do you really love Me?
