Alan Jackson performed this classic gospel song, I want to stroll Over Heaven With You. This song was written by Dale Dodson. It’s part of Alan’s Gospel album Precious Memories debuted at No. 4 on the U.S. Billboard 200, and No. 1 on the Top Country Albums, becoming his eighth #1 country album.

About Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson was born in the small town of Newnan, Georgia, on October 17, 1958. He grew up singing gospel music, both in church and at home with his family, and as a teenager he performed locally as part of a country duo. He left school to work and married his high-school sweetheart, Denise, who worked as an airline stewardess. In 1989, Jackson became the first artist signed to Arista’s new country division. Jackson’s debut album, Here in the Real World, was issued in 1990 and became a platinum-selling hit on the strength of four Top Five hits: the title cut, “Chasin’ That Neon Rainbow,” “Wanted,” and the first of many chart-toppers, “I’d Love You All Over Again.” He shot to full-fledged superstardom with the follow-up, 1991’s Don’t Rock the Jukebox, whose title track was an inescapable number one smash that year.

I Want To Stroll Over Heaven With You Lyrics

Alan Jackson

If I surveyed all the good things that come to me from above
If I count all the blessings from the storehouse of love
I’d simply ask for a favor of him beyond mortal king
And I’m sure that he’d grant it again
I want to stroll over Heaven with you some glad day
When all our troubles and heartaches are vanished away
Then we’ll enjoy the beauty where all things are new
I want to stroll over Heaven with you

So many places of beauty we long to see here below
But time and treasures have kept us from making plans as you know
But come the morning of the rapture together we’ll stand anew
While I stroll over Heaven with you
I want to stroll over Heaven with you some glad day
When all our troubles and heartaches are vanished away
Then we’ll enjoy the beauty where all things are new
I want to stroll over Heaven with you

I want to stroll over Heaven with you

Because He Lives Lyrics

Alabama

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know He holds my future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know He holds my future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives

God sent His son they called Him, Jesus
He came to love, heal and forgive
He lived and died to buy my pardon
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know He holds my future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives

How sweet to hold a newborn baby
And feel the pride and joy he gives
But greater still that calm assurance
This child can face uncertain days because He lives

And then one day I’ll cross the river
I’ll fight life’s final war with pain
And then, as death gives way to vict’ry
I’ll see the lights of glory and I’ll know He lives

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know He holds my future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives

And life is worth the living
Just because He lives

You Must Be Born Again Lyrics

Jeff & Sheri Easter

You must be born again
To enter Heaven’s gate
You must be born again
Oh, friend, why do you wait
If you get down on your knees
And seek Him for His love
He will guide you safely
To that land above

Oh, you must be born again, my dear brother
(Ooh, my dear brother)
Oh, you must be born again to reach that goal
(Ooh, to reach the goal)
If you look to God above and heed the warning
(Ooh, heed the warning)
He will keep you free from sin and save your soul
We read about His coming
About the saving power
And no one knows the time
And no one knows the hour
He will come like a thief
In the middle of the night
To gather all His children
So get your business right

Oh, you must be born again, my dear brother
(Ooh, my dear brother)
Oh, you must be born again to reach that goal
(Ooh, to reach the goal)
If you look to God above and heed the warning
(Ooh, heed the warning)
He will keep you free from sin and save your soul

As we travel day by day
We meet friends ‘long the way
Who need the Savior’s love
To walk the narrow way
If we want to hold His hand
And live in that great land
We must fall on our knees
And pray and pray and pray
Oh, you must be born again, my dear brother
(Ooh, my dear brother)
Oh, you must be born again to reach that goal
(Ooh, to reach the goal)
If you look to God above and heed the warning
(Ooh, heed the warning)
He will keep you free from sin and save your soul

Oh, you must be born again, my dear brother
(Ooh, my dear brother)
Oh, you must be born again to reach that goal
(Ooh, to reach the goal)
If you look to God above and heed the warning
(Ooh, heed the warning)
He will keep you free from sin and save your soul

Yeah, He will keep you free from sin
He’ll save your soul, soul

In the Garden Lyrics

I come to the garden alone
While the dew is still on the roses
And the voice I hear, falling on my ear
The Son of God discloses

And He walks with me
And He talks with me
And He tells me I am His own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known

He speaks and the sound of His voice
Is so sweet the birds hush their singing
And the melody that He gave to me
Within my heart is ringing

And He walks with me
And He talks with me
And He tells me I am His own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known

I stayed in the garden with Him
Though the night all around me is falling
But He bids me go, through the voice of woe
His voice to me is calling

And He walks with me
And He talks with me
And He tells me I am His own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known
None other has ever known

Reckless Love Lyrics

Gaither Vocal Band

Before I spoke a word
You were singing over me
You have been so, so good to me
Hmm, before I took a breath
You breathed your life in me
You have been so, so kind to me
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending
Reckless of a God
Oh, it chases me down
Fights ’til I’m found leaves the 99
I couldn’t earn it
I don’t deserve it
Still you give yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending
Reckless love of God
(Music)
When I was your foe
Still your love fought for me
You have been so, so good to me
Oh yea, when I felt no worth
You paid it all for me
You have been so, so kind to me
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending
Reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down
Fights ’til I’m found, leaves the 99
I couldn’t earn it
I don’t deserve it
Still you give yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending
Reckless love of God
(Music)
There’s no shadow you won’t light up
Mountain you won’t climb up
Coming after me
There’s no wall you won’t kick down
Lie you won’t tear down
Coming after me
There’s no shadow you won’t light up
Mountain you won’t climb up
Coming after me
There’s no wall you won’t kick down
Lie you won’t tear down
Coming after me
There’s no shadow you won’t light up
Mountain you won’t climb up
Coming after me
There’s no wall you won’t kick down
Lie you won’t tear down
Coming after me
There’s no shadow you won’t light up
Mountain you won’t climb up
Coming after me
There’s no wall you won’t kick down
Lie you won’t tear down
Coming after me
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending
Reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down
Fights ’til I’m found leaves the 99
I couldn’t earn it
I don’t deserve it
Still you give yourself away

Thought Gettin’ Older Lyrics

Gaither Vocal Band

I thought gettin’ older would take a lot longer than it did
It seems like the day before
Yesterday i was just a little snotty-nosed kid
That shock of hair that i had back there went away and hid
Yeah, it did
But i thought gettin’ older would take a lot longer than it did


Well i’d have thought for sure jesus would’ve come back by now
(thought he would, thought he would)
I still believe someday i’ll see him
Riding that big white horse through the clouds
I believe it even more right now than i did when i was a kid
Still i thought gettin’ older would take a lot longer than it did
(they thought gettin’ older would take a lot longer than it did)


And i hope i have a few more years before they close that lid
Ah, come on, larry
We’ve had more fun already than i’d really like to admit
Still i thought gettin’ older would take a lot longer
(he thought gettin’ older would take a lot longer)
Still i thought gettin’ older would take a lot longer than it did
Oh, come on, kevin, show us your stuff


I’d thought by now i’d have more money than i do
(thought he would, thought he would)
Oh, but god knows best, we’ve all been blessed
(with more than enough to see us through)
And i wouldn’t trade places with anyone else, heaven and god forbid
Still i thought gettin’ older would take a lot longer than it did


Now this simple song is just two minutes long
Come on, larry, who we trying to kid?
But it sure seems like it took a lot longer than it did
(thank the lord)

Then Came the Morning Lyrics

They all walked away, nothing to say
They’d just lost their dearest friend
All that He said, now He was dead
So this was the way it would end
The dreams they had dreamed were not what they’d seemed
Now that He was dead and gone
The garden, the jail, the hammer, the nail
How could a night be so long?

Then came the morning
Night turned into day
The stone was rolled away
Hope rose with the dawn

Then came the morning
Shadows vanished before the sun
Death had lost and life had won
For morning had come

The angel, the star, the kings from afar
The wedding, the water, the wine
Now it was done, they’d taken her Son
Wasted before His time

She knew it was true, she’d watched Him die too
She’d heard them call Him just a man
But deep in her heart she knew from the start
Somehow her Son would live again

Then came the morning
Night turned into day
The stone was rolled away
Hope rose with the dawn
Then came the morning
Shadows vanished before the sun
Death had lost and life had won
For morning had come

Then came the morning
Shadows vanished before the sun
Death had lost and life had won
For morning had come
For morning had come

Why Me Lord?

Conway Twitty

Why Me Lord

What have I ever done
To deserve even one
Of the pleasures I’ve known
What did I ever do
That was worth loving you
And the kindness you’ve shown.

Lord, help me Jesus,
I’ve wasted it
So help me Jesus
I know what I am
Now that I know
That I’ve needed you
So help me Jesus,
My soul’s in your hand.

Tell me Lord,
If you think there’s a way
I can try to repay
All I’ve taken from you
Maybe Lord,
I can show someone else
What I’ve been through myself
On my way back to you.

Lord, help me Jesus,
I’ve wasted it
So help me Jesus
I know what I am.
Now that I know
That I’ve needed you
So help me Jesus,
My soul’s in your hand.

Lord, help me Jesus,
I’ve wasted it
So help me Jesus
I know what I am
Now that I know
That I’ve need you
So help me Jesus,
My soul’s in your hand.

My soul’s in your hand…

The Haven of Rest (Lyrics)


Words by H.L. Gilmour
Music by George D. Moore
Arranged by Marty Parks


My soul, in sad exile, was out on life’s sea,
So burdened with sin and distressed;
Then I heard a sweet voice saying, “Make Me your choice,”
And I entered the Haven of Rest.

I’ve anchored my soul in the Haven of Rest.
I’ll sail the wide seas no more.
The tempest may sweep o’er the wild, stormy deep;
In Jesus, I’m safe evermore. Evermore.

I yielded myself to His tender embrace,
Faith taking hold of His Word,
My fetters fell off!
And I anchored my soul!
The Haven of Rest is my Lord!

I’ve anchored my soul in the Haven of Rest.
I’ll sail the wide seas no more.
The tempest may sweep o’er the wild, stormy deep;
In Jesus, I’m safe evermore!

Oh, I’ve anchored my soul in the Haven of Rest!
I’ll sail the wide seas no more.
The tempest may sweep o’er the wild, stormy deep;
In Jesus, I’m safe; In Jesus, I’m safe evermore! Safe evermore!
