"DOOR OF SIN". We have all been at this door. Sin is Ugly, God's forgiveness is Beautiful! ... Lyrics;
 
Standing at the door of sin.
Should I resist, or should I walk in?
I've been through that ugly door before.
I never wanna go through there no more.
I know it could be fun for a season.
Ain't no reason to commit treason.
From behind that door it's pulling me in.
God please help me, I don't wanna sin.
I hate this war I'm always in.
I wanna please God but I wanna sin.
Sin's so ugly, don't wanna sin no more.
Gonna turn around, walk away from this door.
Chorus (x3)
Standing at the door of sin.
Should I resist or should I walk in?
Bridge/Outro
I'm not gonna fall for that trickery.
Through God I have the victory! 
But If I fall, I'm gonna keep on livin.
Cause through Jesus Christ, I'm forgiven!

DOOR OF SIN (ft. Dale Thompson) Music & Lyrics by Mikey Berk

Funkish. ... It's ok to own "THINGS" but not ok to let "THINGS" own us. ... Song is not supposed to be condeming, just a little WAKE UP call to focus on what is the most important. ... "Wake Up" Lyrics:
                                   
YOU CUT YOUR GRASS, YOU’VE GOT THE PERFECT LAWN
BUT WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO WHEN IT’S ALL GONE?
YOU GOT A BIG HOUSE, A GREAT FAMILY
BUT DO YOU THINK ABOUT GOD OR ETERNITY?
CHORUS
WAKE UP, WAKE UP. THERE’S A SPIRIT WORLD THAT YOU CAN NOT SEE.
WAKE UP, WAKE UP. THE AFTERLIFE IS EVERYONE'S DESTINY.
WAKE UP, WAKE UP. WHEN YOUR LIFE ENDS IS WHEN IT ALL BEGINS.
WAKE UP, WAKE UP. YOU NEED JESUS, HE DIED FOR YOUR SINS.
VERSE 2
YOU GOT A LOT BUT YOU’RE STILL EMPTY INSIDE
BUT DO YOU THINK ABOUT JESUS AND WHY HE DIED?
YOU GOT THE TOYS, EVERYTHING IS NEW
BUT SOON YOUR LIFE WILL BE REQUIRED OF YOU.
CHORUS (#2)
WAKE UP, WAKE UP. THERE IS A HEAVEN, THERE IS A HELL.      
WAKE UP, WAKE UP.  HE’LL FREE YOU FROM YOUR PRISON CELL 
WAKE UP, WAKE UP. GOD'S LOVE FOR YOU IS REAL.
WAKE UP, WAKE UP. YOUR EMPTINESS, JESUS WILL HEAL.

WAKE UP

STRAIGHT FOLK NEED TO LOVE YOU TOO.
CHORUS:
UNITY UNITY, PEACE, LOVE AND UNITY. 
UNITY UNITY, PEACE, LOVE AND UNITY.
UNITY UNITY, PEACE, LOVE AND UNITY.
UNITY UNITY, PEACE,LOVE AND UNITY.

LEFT-WING, RIGHT-WING, LET'S TRY TO GET ALONG.
BE NICE THOUGH WE DON'T SING THE SAME SONG.
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE THINGS ON WHICH WE DISAGREE
BUT I'M NO BETTER THAN YOU, YOU'RE NO BETTER THAN ME.
REPEAT CHORUS
WE NEED TO LOVE MORE AND THIS IS HARD TO DO. 
BUT THE LORD IS HELPING ME AND HE CAN HELP YOU TOO.
WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN THE EYES OF THE LORD.
THE GRACE-TRAIN IS COMIN PEOPLE, LET'S  GET ON BOARD!

UNITY - the let's all get along song

LETTER FROM THE DEVIL
VERSE 1
I GOT A LETTER FROM THE DEVIL AND THIS IS WHAT IT SAID:
THERE AIN'T NO HEAVEN, AIN'T NO HELL,THERE'S NOTHIN’ AFTER YOU'RE DEAD.
ATHEIST BELIEVE ME, PLEASE BELIEVE ME TOO
SO THAT I CAN SPEND ALL ETERNITY WITH YOU.
JESUS DOES NOT LOVE YOU, I'M REALLY THE GOOD GUY.
REMEMBER; I'M THE DEVIL AND I WOULD NEVER LIE.
CHORUS 1
I GOT A LETTER FROM THE DEVIL AND THIS IS WHAT IT SAID:
THERE AIN'T NO HEAVEN, AIN'T NO HELL, NOTHIN’ AFTER YOU'RE DEAD.
JUST STAY WOKE, TELL ANOTHER JOKE, DON'T THINK ABOUT ETERNITY.

I'M THE RUDEST AND THE CRUDEST. I ENTERED JUDAS.
SOME FOLK THINK I DON'T EXIST, BUT THEY'RE ABSOLUTELY CLUELESS.
VERSE 2
HUMANS EVOLVED FROM NOTHING, GOD WAS NOT AROUND.
UNIVERSE MADE ITSELF, NO MIRACLE TO BE FOUND.
I'M THE AUTHOR OF CONFUSION YOU CAN TELL BY THIS LETTER.
YOU MUST CHOOSE BETWEEN GOD OR ME BUT TRULY I AM BETTER.

WELL DEVIL I'M CHOOSIN’ JESUS FOR TRULY HE IS BETTER.
PUTTIN’ YOUR LETTER WHERE IT BELONGS, RIGHT DOWN THE SHREDDER.

DON'T THINK ABOUT GOD OR THE LIGHT YOU CAN NOT SEE.
STAY IN DARKNESS SO YOU CAN BURN IN THE FIRE WITH ME.
OUTRO
NOPE, YOU AIN'T FOOLIN’ ME DEVIL. I'M STICKIN WITH MY JESUS!
… AND DON'T WRITE ME NO MORE LETTERS!

A Letter From The Devil

Rap/Hip-hop song about needing the Lord's protection physically, spiritually and how we are dead spiritually without accepting His Loving Forgiveness.

Lyrics:
1.Walkin through the dangerous hood, surrounded by all these crazies. 
I need your protection Lord. Without You, I’d be pushin up daisies, 
I’d be: 
Abolished, annihilated, canceled, decimated, eliminated, eradicated, erased and killed.
Exterminated, 187, obliterated, sliced, diced, put on ice and chilled. 
I’m a dead man without You. Without You I’m a dead man.(x2)
Lord I love You. Lord I need You. (x2)

2. Unless you protect the city Lord, those that guard it, guard it in vain.
Unless You protect me in this crazy traffic, My safety go down the drain,
  Without You: 
I’m screwed, worm food, subdued, breathless, lifeless, hopeless, passed away.
Croaked, revoked, dead meat, done in, snuffed out, off the cliff, I'm a stiff in decay.
I’m a dead man without You. Without You I’m a dead man.(x2)
Lord I love You. Lord I need You.(x2) 

3. My soul needs your salvation Jesus, You are my hiding place.
Without You I’m Hellbound, Lord I need to seek your face.
Without You I’m
Disqualified, unjustified, dissatisfied, dead in sin, darkness, desolate, penalized, demoralized.
Empty, lost, blind, denied. Hellbound, goin down, lake of fire, fried, agonized.
I’m a dead man without You. Without You I’m a dead man.(x2)
Lord I love You. Lord I need You.(x2)
   
4. I deserve hell but going to heaven when I breathe my last breath
because Jesus rose from the dead He paid for sin He defeated death.
I’m a forgiven rhythmic expressionist.
My Best Friend is a Jewish Exorcist.
I’m brought to life. In the light, at peace, justified.
Redeemed, Loved, clean, rectified, satisfied.
I’m a dead man without You. Without You, I’m a dead man.(x2)

I'm A Dead Man

We shouldn’t let the hypocrisy, flaws and apostasy of others keep us from growing in our own relationship with The Lord. ...

Vs 1
Another leader falls, another “believer” found in sin.
A so-called Christian says he’s been un-born again.
Deconstruction, apostasy, call it what you will.
Join the ranks of Judas, Devil deceiving people still.

CHORUS
It don’t matter, it don’t matter, I’m gonna follow Jesus!
It don’t matter, it don’t matter, I’m gonna follow Jesus!
Tho many fall away, don't matter what they say;
I’m gonna follow Jesus!

Vs 2
They can follow their idols and worldly treasures,
They can follow after their materialistic pleasures.
Tho many fall away, I'm gonna stay focused on the Prize.
I'm stickin’ with Jesus, Not gonna follow no worldly lies.

CHORUS
Refrain,Reprise,Breakdown,ReggaePart,WhateverYaCall It,LOL
Don’t let the acts of hypocrites keep you from the Lord.
Jesus ain’t no hypocrite, He paid the price we couldn’t afford.
The road to Heaven is narrow, those that find it are few.
It’s not too late, the prodigal came back, so can you.
CHORUS

Lyrics:
He was a prophet - He was a one of a kind.
He walked this planet- He healed the sick and the blind.
His name was Jesus- He only did what was good.
He spoke of good things- only a few understood.
There was a dead man- Lazarus was the one dead.
He went to raise him- and this is what Jesus said:

Chorus:
"Lazarus come forth" (x4)

Lazarus came out of his grave- that was so dark and grim.
Jesus desired that he lived- because of the love He had for him.

He is the Savior- He'll speak to you today.
You can walk with Him- He'll hear you if you pray.
His name is Jesus- He only does what is good.
He'll bring you to life- to live the way that you should.
If you're feeling dead- and want to start life again 
just like Lazarus- He can raise you, yes He can.

Chorus

You can come out of your grave- your grave of deception and sin.
Jesus desires that you live- He loves you, and He wants you to win.

Chorus

Lyrics:
Chorus:
So full of love, mercy, and power- so full of love, worthy of praise.
Jesus You've changed me Your love has amazed me- I wanna serve You Lord, follow Your ways.

Back before the universe even existed, before there was sunshine, clouds, or mountain air.
Back before the thought of time even existed, before mankind was formed, You were already there.

Back before the heavens and earth were created- it's hard to think back so very far.
I wonder what You were doing way back then - what makes You the way, way that You are?

Chorus

Why are you so just?- Why are you so loving?
Why do you really care?
Some friends are going to Heaven, some friends are going to Hell, is this fair?

I know that it has to be fair - 'cause You only do what is right.
Some people turn from the darkness - Some people turn from Your light.

Lyrics:
Driving along feelin, an emptiness inside.
Wonderin what would happen, happen if I died.
Is there really a Heaven, is there really a Hell.
Is there a way of knowin, is there a way to tell.
I just wana party, live my life my way.
I try to ignore it, but I hear a voice say:
Chorus:
Don't forget, don't forget about Jesus.
Don't forget, don't forget the man above
Don't forget, don't forget His mercy. 
Don't forget, don't forget about His love!
 
I see bumper stickers, selling this and that.
Won't this pass away, is this really where its at.
I've heard Jesus loves me, regardless of my sin.
I've heard He'll accept me, if I'd just give in.
I see a bumper sticker that says "Jesus is the way".
I try to ignore it, but I hear that voice say:
Chorus:
