1. I SAW THE LIGHT (Hank Williams)
« © '48 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
I wandered so aimless life filled with sin
I wouldn't let my dear Saviour in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord I saw the light

I saw the light I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light

Just like a blind man I wandered alone
Worries and fears I claimed for my own
Then like a blind man that God gave back his sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light

Well I was a fool to wander and stray
Strait is the gate and narrow the way
But now I have traded the wrong for the right
Praise the Lord I saw the light

I saw the light I saw the light...
[ banjo ] I wandered so aimless life filled with sin...
I saw the light I saw the light...
********** 2. HOUSE OF GOLD (Hank Williams)
« © '50 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
People steal they cheat they lie
For wealth and what it will buy
But don't they know on the Judgment Day
All their gold and silver will melt away

I'd rather be in a deep dark grave
And know that my poor soul was saved
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and doom my soul

What good is gold and silver too
If your heart's not good and true
Sinner hear me when I say
Fall down on your knees and pray

For I'd rather be in a deep dark grave...

Than to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and doom my soul
********** 3. JESUS IS A SOUL MAN (Lawrence Reynolds - Jack Cardwell)
« © '69 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Jesus he's a soul man Jesus he's a soul man
Jesus he's a soul man and I'm sure sold on him

Oh they say that he's a square that Jesus he ain't nowhere
But I know better cause he lives in my heart Jesus is a soul man
Yes you can find him in the Bible pages Jesus he's a Rock of Ages
He hides me in the cleft of the rock Jesus is a soul man

Jesus he's a soul man Jesus he's a soul man...

He calms the wait when the storm is raging
Keeps me safe when the devil's raving
He's my staff he's my sword and my shield Jesus is a soul man
Oh Shadrach Meshac and Abednego
The king he said in the fire they must go
He found out that that fire wouldn't burn'em
They were saved by the soul man

Jesus he's a soul man Jesus he's a soul man...
Jesus he's a soul man Jesus he's a soul man...
********** 4. I'M GONNA SING (Hank Williams)
« © '51 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
In this world of sorrow I've seen trouble and woe
When I get to glory I'll see no more
For I know my prayers have not been in vain
When I get to glory I'm gonna sing sing sing

When I get to glory I'm gonna sing sing sing
I'm gonna let the hallelujahs ring
I'm gonna praise my blessed Saviour's name
When I get to glory I'm gonna sing sing sing
[ banjo ] Sometimes I get so weary inside
Then I recall how my Jesus died
Up there I know there'll be no pain
When I get to glory I'm gonna sing sing sing

When I get to glory I'm gonna sing sing sing...
[ fiddle ] Up there no tears will blind my eyes
And I'll walk along by my Jesus side
I'll meet my loved ones all once again
When I get to glory I'm gonna sing sing sing

When I get to glory I'm gonna sing sing sing...
********** 5. WEALTH WON'T SAVE YOUR SOUL (Hank Williams)
« © '48 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
As we journey along down life's wicked road
So selfish are we for silver and gold
You can treasure your wealth your diamonds and gold
But my friends it won't save your poor wicked soul

For when God calls from his home upon high
To your earthly wealth you must say goodbye
Then it's useless to you if you've strayed from the fold
For my friends it won't save your poor wicked soul
[ steel ] The rich man like Paul will be judged at that time
But all of his wealth shall be left behind
For no matter how much of earth's wealth you hold
Oh my friends it won't save your poor wicked soul
No my friends it won't save your poor wicked soul
********** 6. CALLING YOU (Hank Williams)
« © '48 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
When you've strayed from the fold and there's trouble in your soul
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour callin' you
When your soul is lost in sin and you're at your journey's end
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour callin' you

Callin' you callin' you
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour callin' you
He will take you by the hand lead you to that promised land
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour callin' you
[ steel ] As you journey day by day and temptation comes your way
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour callin' you
If you follow in his light he will always guide you right
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour callin' you

Callin' you callin' you...
[ piano ] When your soul is burden down and your friends cannot be found
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour callin' you
If you'll follow him each day he will brighten up your way
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour callin' you

Callin' you callin' you...
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour callin' you
********** 7. HOW CAN YOU REFUSE HIM NOW (Hank Williams)
« © '50 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
How can you refuse him now how can you refuse him now
How can you turn away from his side
With tears in his eyes on the cross there he died
How can you refuse Jesus now

There's a story ole that has often been told
Of how our Saviour died
As they nailed his hands he cried they don't understand
As the blood flowed from his side

How can you refuse him now how can you refuse him now...
[ steel ] As he hung there on the tree he prayed for you and me
There was no one his pain to ease
Before he died he faintly cried oh father forgive them please

How can you refuse him now how can you refuse him now...
********** 8. JESUS DON'T GIVE UP ON ME (Jack Clement - Alex Zanetis)
« © '69 Songs Of PolyGram, BMI »
Jesus I know I've neglected to do
The little things the big things you wanted me to
I've let you down Jesus that's not hard to see Jesus
Oh Jesus don't give up on me

Stand by me Jesus forgive me somehow
If there's any hope left don't leave me now
I might be worth saving I'm trying to be Jesus
Oh Jesus don't give up on me
[ steel ] It's late I know and I've made you wait
But don't turn the light out don't lock the gate
Forgiveness and patience that's all I need Jesus
Oh Jesus don't give up on me

Stand by me Jesus forgive me somehow...
********** 9. ARE YOU WALKING AND A TALKING FOR THE LORD (Hank Williams)
« © '52 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Would you stop and try to save on your journey to the grave
Are you walkin' and a talkin' with the Lord
Would you lend a helping hand to some poor sinner man
Are you walkin' and a talkin' with the Lord

Are you walkin' (are you walkin')
Are you talkin' (are you talkin')
Are you walkin' and a talkin' with the Lord
Are you traveling in his light ev'ry day and ev'ry night
Are you walkin' and a talkin' with the Lord
[ piano ] If your soul said testify would the world hear your reply
Are you walkin' and a talkin' with the Lord
Would you stop and shout his name or bow your head in shame
Are you walkin' and a talkin' with the Lord

Are you walkin' (are you walkin')...
********** 10. WAIT FOR THE LIGHT TO SHINE (Fred Rose)
« © '58 Milene Music, ASCAP »
When the road is rocky and you're carryin' a load
Wait for the light to shine
If you find you're friendless on that weary lonesome road
Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine wait for the light to shine
Pull yourself together and keep lookin' for the sign
Wait for the light to shine

Don't forget your brother as you travel through this land
Wait for the light to shine
He may be in trouble and may need a helpin' hand
Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine wait for the light to shine
Never give up hope or cast your pearls before the swine
Wait for the light to shine
[ dobro - banjo ] Don't let trouble fool you and your sin will all be gone
Wait for the light to shine
Don't forget it's darkest just before the break of dawn
Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine wait for the light to shine
Keep these words on your mind as you walk that narrow line
Wait for the light to shine
********** 11. READY TO GO HOME (Hank Williams)
« © '53 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
There's coming a day when the world shall melt away
And Jesus shall come to claim his own
No more tears no pain no woe in this wicked world below
Then will you be ready to go home

Will you be ready to go ready to go home
To live with him up there round the throne
When he says come unto me will your soul be clean and free
Then will you be ready to go home
[ steel ] In this world of greed and hate will you wait till it's too late
Too late to claim the Saviour for your own
For he's coming someday to bear your soul away
Then will you be ready to go home

Will you be ready to go ready to go home...
Then will you be ready to go home
