Way Back When

Fred Hammond


It's a scientific fact that
Sound waves never die
Once spoken, once uttered
It just goes on and on and on

Welcome to Sunday night lit
Now there's a sound in heaven
There is a sound in the universe
That echos back and forth for eternity

This is what I believe it's sayin'
His mercy
His mercy endureth forever
His mercy endureth forever
His mercy endureth forever and ever
And ever

His mercy endureth forever
His mercy endureth forever
His mercy endureth for ever and ever
And ever

Mercy
His mercy endureth forever
His mercy endureth forever
His mercy endureth for ever and ever
And ever

Glory to glory to glory to glory to glory to glory to God
Glory to glory to glory to glory to glory to glory to God

Our God
Is an awesome God he reigns
From heaven above
With wisdom
Power and love our God is an awesome
Oh

Our God
Is an awesome God he reigns
From heaven above
With wisdom
Power and love our God is an awesome God

You are the source of my strength
You are the strength of my life
I lift my hands in total praise to you
Amen

Welcome in to this place
Welcome in to this broken vessel
You desire to abide
In the presence of your people

So we lift our hands
As we lift our hearts
As we offer up praises to your name
We wanna say it like this

Lord, help me to hold out
Lord, help me to hold out
Lord, help me to hold out
Until my change comes

Lord, help me to hold out
Lord, help me to hold out
Lord, help me to hold out
Until my change comes

Lord, I'm available to you
My will I give to you, I'll do what you said do
Use me lord
To show someone the way
And enable me to say

My storage is empty
And I am available
My storage is empty
And I am available to you

If you confess the lord call him up
If you confess the lord call him up
If you confess the lord call him up

If you believe in the father, son and the holy ghost
Call him up and tell him what you want
Can't stop praising his name
I just can't stop praising his name
I just can't stop praising his name
Jesus

Can't stop praising his name
I just can't stop praising his name
I just can't stop praising his name
Jesus

Oh happy day

To walk
Fight and pray
Fight and pray
And live rejoicing
Every

Every day

Oh happy day

Oh happy day!

Thank you lord for all you've done for
It could have been me

With no food
(Thank you)
And no clothes
(Thank you)
Or just alone
(Thank you)

Without a friend
(Thank you)
Or just another number
(Thank you)

With a tragic end
(Thank you, oh!)
Lord you didn't see fit
(Thank you)

To let none of these things be
(Thank you)
And everyday by your power
(Thank you)
You keep on keeping me
(Thank you)

And I wanna say
(Thank you lord for all you've done for)
Thank you lord for all you've done

I want thank you for your love
Thank you for your power
Thank you for protection
Every hour

I want thank you for your love
Thank you for your power
Thank you for protection
Every hour
