Thou art the potter  I am the clay

Filled with Thy spir-it till all can see 
            G       D7        G
Christ only always  living in me

Back When Gas Was Thirty Cents A Gallon

Lyrics:

Written and recorded by Tom T. Hall

F                                C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
G7                               C
America was young and strong and brave
F                                  C
Lord knows that I didn't have much money
G7
And my old car had seen some better days
F                                     C
You were young and fresh as brand new roses
G7                              C
I was so in love and strong and brave

F                                C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
G7                            C
And love was only sixty cents away
  G7                              F    C
I don't think I'd know you if I'd s-ee you
F             C                  G7
I practice my forgetting till it works
F                                C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
  G7                         C
I didn't know the meaning of hurt

F                                C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
G7                                     C
And sweet magnolias line those country roads
F                                   C
We burned a tank of love most every weekend
G7
And on work days I helped 'em fix the roads
F                                        C
My friends were many and our dreams were certain
G7                                   C
Whoever thought we'd go our separate ways
F                                C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
    G7                        C
And love was only sixty cents away

  G7                              F    C
I don't think I'd know you if I'd s-ee you
F             C                  G7
I practice my forgetting till it works
F                                C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
  G7                         C
I didn't know the meaning of hurt
F                                C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
    G7                        C
And love was only sixty cents away

Love Lifted Me

Lyrics:

Written by James Rowe and Howard E. Smith

G
I was sinking deep in sin
                       D7
Far from that peaceful shore

Very deeply stained within
                   G
Sinking to rise no more


But the Master of the sea
                    C
Heard my despairing cry
                G     
From the waters lifted me
         D7      G
Now safe safe am I

     D7     G               C
Love lifted me  love lifted me
             G                A7          D7
When nothing else could help  love lifted me
            G               C
Love lifted me  love lifted me
             G                D7          G
When nothing else could help  love lifted me


Souls in danger look above
                 D7
Jesus completely saves

He will lift you by His love
                 G
Out of the angry waves


Love so mighty and so true
                      C
Merits my soul’s best songs
                G
Faithful loving service too
       D7  G
To Him be--longs

     D7     G               C
Love lifted me  love lifted me
             G                A7          D7
When nothing else could help  love lifted me
            G               C
Love lifted me  love lifted me
             G                D7          G
When nothing else could help  love lifted me

And the class of '57 had its dreams
    Am                        D7            G7
But living life day to day is never like it seems

Lyrics:

Recorded by the Statler Brothers

C                              F
Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power
        C                          G7
Are you washed in the blood of the lamb
         C                          F
Are your garments spotless are they white as snow
        C             G7           C
Are you washed in the blood of the lamb

                      F
Are you washed in the blood
       C                           G7
In the soul cleansing blood of the lamb

Are your garments spotless are they white as snow
        C             G7           C
Are you washed in the blood of the lamb

Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin
       C                          G7
And be washed in the blood of the lamb

There's a fountain flowing for the soul unclean
      C             G7           F
Oh be washed in the blood of the lamb

                      F
Are you washed in the blood

In the soul cleansing blood of the lamb
         C                          F
Are your garments spotless are they white as snow
        C             G7           C
Are you washed in the blood of the lamb

Mockingbird Hill

Lyrics:

Recorded by Slim Whitman written by Vaughn Horton
[3/4 time]

C        G7                       C           
When the sun in the morning peeps over the hill
    D7                      G7
And kisses the roses 'round my windowsill
                                       C 
Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill
       D7                       G7          
Of the birds in the treetops on Mockingbird Hill

                                 C          G7 
Tra-la-la twiddly-dee-dee-dee it gives me a thrill
   D7                            G7                 
To wake up in the morning to the mockingbird's trill
                                  C             G7 
Tra-la-la twiddly-dee-dee there's peace and goodwill
       D7                        G7  
You're welcome as the flowers on Mockingbird Hill

                                 C
Got a three cornered plow and an acre to till
      D7                       G7
And a mule that I bought for a ten dollar bill
                                  C
There's a tumble down shack and a old rusty mill
         D7                    G7 
But it's my home sweet home on Mockingbird Hill

                                C
When it's late in the evening I climb up the hill
       D7                       G7  
And survey all my kingdom while every thing's still
                           C 
Only me and the sky and an old whippoorwill
     D7                    G7 
It's my home sweet home on Mockingbird Hill

You'll belong to me I'll belong to you
