1. In The Garden

There’s a place that I’ve
been searching for all my life
I’ve seen the vision in the glory light
Oh mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy me
How it changed my sights

I have seen the Host of Heaven
and the work of man
All gathered in this
place to become one
Oh mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy me
To be near the Son

Oh, oh, oh, looking for Zion
Oh, oh, oh, I’m leaving for Zion

I have seen the streets all
paved with gold in the City of lights
Every pathway is amazing to behold
Oh mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy me
It’s in my heart and soul

Oh, oh, oh, looking for Zion
Oh, oh, oh, I’m leaving for Zion

Oh, oh, oh, looking for Zion
Oh, oh, oh, I’m leaving for Zion
Leaving for the Zion


2. You Gotta Have Hope

In the world today
everybody’s living with emotion
Seeking high and low,
looking for some harmony
When the troubled heart is aching
for the rest and some healing
When joy is gone and
everyone has left you behind

You gotta have hope
for the good times
You gotta have dreams
you can hold onto
You gotta have peace in searching
You gotta have love to sustain you
You gotta get down
in the trenches
You gotta let God be
there to walk you through
You gotta hold tight to conviction
And let fear pass by

Reach inside, find out where
the miracles are hiding
Lay the sorrows down,
the miseries will disappear
You gotta trust your heart
and lean not unto your understanding
Wipe away the tears and
find out where the soul resides

You gotta have hope
for the good times
You gotta have dreams
you can hold onto
You gotta have peace in searching
You gotta have love to sustain you
You gotta get down in the trenches
You gotta let God be
there to walk you through
You gotta hold tight to conviction
And let fear pass by

You gotta have hope
for the good times
You gotta have dreams
you can hold onto
You gotta have peace in searching
You gotta have love to sustain you
You gotta get down in the trenches
You gotta let God be there
to walk you through
You gotta hold tight to conviction
And let fear pass by

4. Still My Heart Believes

I’ve never seen rainbows
ever touch the ground
I’ve never seen harps
with any angels around
I’ve never seen anyone heaven bound
Still my heart believes

I’ve never heard voices
really pierce the veil
I’ve never had a dream
hit the Richter scale
I’ve never seen peace
on earth ever prevail
Still my heart believes

Cause there’s this love in the center
Where my fading heart can enter
It’s where peace and joy arise
When my heart repeats the sound

All the songs we’ll sing together
On that very special day
It’s loud and clear
Right deep in here is love

I’ve never seen sunsets tucked away
I’ve never held pain in your at bay
Never really lived one perfect day
Still my heart believes

Cause there’s this love in the center
Where my fading heart can enter
It’s where peace and joy arise
When my heart repeats the sound

Of the songs we’ll sing together
On that very special day
It’s loud and clear
Right deep in here is love


5. Pure Glory

How long I walk a road
All I know it’s a heavy load
Never stop to count the days
Walking through these shadows haze
Time keeps on spinning round
Climb a hill then right back down
Looking for the city lights
Those gates of white

Pure Glory
Pure Glory

It’s cycling all through my mind
No more will I be blind
Another flash just the same
No more will I be lame
Those trees on the river banks
Sought by many by countless ranks
Fight through that misty dark
Looking for that spark

Pure Glory
Pure Glory

By the shade I lay me down
Dressed in white
near the rushing sound
Where the waters keep flowing free
Washing down all over me
Praising Him from night til dawn
With celestial heavenly songs
It was really worth the trip
The Shepard’s ship

Pure Glory
Pure Glory

Wow

When I reach that crested hill
When finally my soul is still
I’ll see His robe in red
For His scarlet blood was shed
I’ll drive right to his feet
And finally admit defeat
Then at once I’ll rise again
To someone I’ve been

Pure Glory
Pure Glory
Pure Glory
Pure Glory


6. Shake It Up

Come on now shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come on now shake it up

Let me warn you now
The morning star is rising in the east
Calling you with love
Yet soberness
Come to the marriage feast
Where there’s joy and perfect love
Your tears will be washed away
All He has is yours to keep
The price is already paid

So come on now shake it up
Come on now I said shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come on now I said shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come on now I said shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come on now I said shake it up

Come on now wake up
Prepare your hearts
Get ready for the day
Must they first break up?
Holy break a part
Like a potter breaks his clay
Don’t you know the time is now?
There’s no more time to waste
Do you know?
Come hear me now
The angels are making haste

So come on now shake it up
Come on now and shake shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come on now and shake shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come on now and shake shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come on now I said shake it up
Don’t you know the time is now
There’s no more time to waste
Do you know
Come hear me now
The angels are making haste

So come on now shake it up
Come on now and shake shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come on now and shake shake it up
Come on now shake it up
Come on now and shake shake it up
