Can’t Stop The Rock - Lyrics
September 26, 2008
Look what we can do
When we get together
And give support
To those on the lines
It’s our sons and daughters
Our sisters and brothers
Let’s show them we cared
If they lived or died
(chorus)
In this land of freedom
There’s riots in the streets
All in the name of peace
If we stand in unity
We’ll win with dignity
Our strength has said it all
Pray and believe
The wars through the ages
Have taken so many lives
I think of their faces
And the fear in their eyes
With hearts made of courage
And souls filled with fire
Those who fight for their freedom
Let’s lift their names higher
Can’t Stop The Rock
I’m hearin’ people talkin’
Sayin’ things that just ain’t true
Thinkin’ that they know what we’ve been through
They say that we’ve been walkin’
Away from what we started to do
But we still want our message to get through
(bridge)
We’re soldiers under command
Gonna sing it loud and clear
He’s the rock that makes me roll
Turn it up, we want you to hear
(chorus)
Can’t stop the rock
Can’t stop the rock
Playin’ in this rock band
Tryin’ to make a stand
Hasn’t been an easy thing to do
Travelin’ ‘cross this land
Tryin’ to make people understand
We’ve got the right to rock ‘em how we choose
Soldiers Under Command We are the soldiers under God’s command
We hold His two-edged sword within our hands
We’re not ashamed to stand up for what’s right
We win without sin, it’s not by our might
And we’re fighting all the sin
And the good book — it says we’ll win!
(chorus)
Soldiers, Soldiers, under command
Soldiers, Soldiers, fighting the Lords battle plan
Are you a soldier under God’s command
Help fight the good fight, join us while you can
The battle that’s waiting is fought so easily
Through Him, without sin there is victory
And were fighting all the sin And the good book — it says we’ll win!
Free
Free to turn away - say goodbye
Free to walk away - and deny
The gift waiting for you
Whispers a still small voice
It’s your choice - you’re..
(chorus)
Free - Free to do what you want to
Choose your own destiny
Free to do what you want to
Free to open up - and believe
Free to simply ask - and receive
There’s no better time than now
You’ve got the right to choose
You can’t lose - you’re…
Always There For You
Love can be so cold
And loneliness gets old
More than words or broken promises
I want to show you what true love is
(chorus)
I’m always there for you
I’ll always stand by you
When the world has closed the door
And you can’t go on anymore
I’m always there for you
You’ve been hurt before
And you don’t want anymore
There’s a better way for you
Believe in me, I’ll see you through
Lady
I see you standin’ there, oh so fine
I can’t believe my eyes Girl, I just can’t seem to make you mine
No matter how hard I try
(bridge 1)
I’ve never wanted any one more than you
Girl, I’m hopin’ that you’re wantin’ me too
(chorus)
Lady, I wanna be your man
Lady…
Won’t you tell me what I’ve gotta do
To win over your heart
This feeling inside is something new
It’s tearin’ me apart
(bridge 2)
I never dreamed I would meet someone like you
Won’t you tell me that you’re feelin’ it too
(chorus)
Baby, I’ll love you all I can
Lady…
To Hell With Devil
Speak of the devil
He’s no friend of mine
To turn from him is what we have in mind
Just a liar and a thief
The word tells us so
We like to let him know
Where he can go
(chorus)
To hell with the devil
To hell with the devil
When things are going wrong
You know who to blame
He will always live
Up to his name
He’s never been the answer
There’s a better way
We are here to rock you
And to say…
Honestly
Honestly, I believe in you
Do you trust in me
Patiently, I will stand by you
I will stand beside you faithfully
(bridge)
And through the years
I will be a friend
For always and forever
(chorus)
Call on me and I’ll be there for you
I’m a friend who always will be true
And I love you can’t you see
That I can say I love you honestly
(Solo)
(chorus 2)
Call on me and I’ll be there for you
I’m a friend who always will be true
And I love you can’t you see
That I love you honestly
I will never betray your trust in me
And I love you can’t you see
That I can say I love you honestly
Two Bodies (One Mind One Soul)
Too many days go by
When we don’t see eye to eye
We hold the key that will open all the doors
I just wish that we could give just a little more
(chorus)
This time we’ve gotta stick together
Can’t let our hearts turn into stone
We’ll win this fight if we never say never
As two bodies, one mind one soul
I swore that I’d never give up on you
And you said that you would see this through
So let’s light the fire that will burn the wall to the ground
Let’s find what we thought could never be found
Together As One
Now is the time
That we stand together as one
A new light inside us will shine
As bright as the sun
Let’s bring, bring in the new
And do away with the old
A new love, a new love that’s true
A love that’s never cold,
A love that never dies
A love that fills our souls
We will survive
(chorus)
Together as one
We’ll stand for the world to see
Together as one
We’ll shine bright throughout eternity
All the dreams we’ve dreamed before
Are now reality
Now the dreams of a perfect love
Will always be
(chorus)
You and I in a perfect love faithfully
You Know What To Do
Some people think they’re happy, livin’ for themselves.
But when they’re sad they long for something else.
And you can find the answer in an honest way.
To get you thru the sadness, to start a whole new day.
We’ve found a life that keeps us happy.
Yes, we have and we’ll live eternally.
We’ll always have the light to see, and so can you.
(chorus)
Are you feeling lonely?
Are you feeling blue?
Does your life seem empty?
You know what to do.
You say you’ve go some troubles, yeah, oh so many downs.
You need a light to lift you off the ground.
And if your life feels senseless, just accept the Lord.
And He’ll make you see things you never have seen before.
An everlasting life abounding, oh yeah.
Yes, He will and He’s always giving more.
And His light will never stop shining, it’s for you, yes it is.
(chorus)
