ALL PRAISE TO CHRIST, THE KING (SM) Gospel, appropriate for quartet or choir. Upbeat, strong lyrics and melody line.
-
Like the lonely leper crying out to Jesus,
-
Like the cripple many years beside the pool;
-
Like the father whose dear son was torn with seizures,
-
And the woman reaching through the multitude;
-
I cried, Dear Jesus, heal my broken spirit,
-
The Lord reached out his hand and intervened;
-
His touch renewed my soul by sin so weary,
-
And He filled my heart with praise to Christ the King.
AMERICA, YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL TO ME (SM) Patriotic song praising America.

This is, the country where I pray,

And where people, are free to work and play.

I walk in, its valleys and its plains,

And give thanks to God for sunshine and rain.
BALLAD OF MONKEY JONES, THE (SM) Song about the songwriter's friend killed in Vietnam.
-
Within our nation's capital, there is a long black wall,
-
Where heroes' names are etched into the stone.
-
Among the many thousands who heard our nation's call,
-
I found the name of James Montgomery Jones.
-
I bowed my head in sorrow, with memories in my mind,
-
Of youthful dreams that we had shared back then;
-
And knew that I would never, be fortunate to find,
-
Another time, so wonderful a friend.

Before you walk out of the door.
