I HAVE OFTEN HEARDWritten & Composed By Michael WoodheadCopyright 1975, 2021

I HAVE OFTEN HEARD Written & Composed by Michael Woodhead Copyright © 1975, 2021

I have often heard of sinful things that people do I have often heard how they crucified you, too I have often heard how you rose from Satan's grave Many sinful men like me to save How I'm glad eternal life you gave

I have often seen the way that people put you down I have often seen pictures of your thorny crown I have often seen how they nailed you to a cross to die Thinking you would never live again Praise the Lord! Your resurrection came

I have often felt a burning deep inside my soul I have often felt gladness knowing you have made me whole I have often felt love and peace flow from above Holy Spirit falling like a dove How I need you more and more to love

PRISONER Written & Composed by Michael Woodhead Copyright © 1965, 2021

I don't want to be a prisoner Bound by chains of love Bound just like a dove in a cage

I don't want to be a prisoner I want you for my own With no heart of stone in your breast

Unchain my hands Unchain my hands Unchain my hands Unchain my hands

I don't want to be a prisoner I just want your charms Please, unchain these arms, let me go

I don't want to be a prisoner Please take me today And don't run away from me, no

Unchain my hands Unchain my hands Unchain my hands Unchain my hands

I don't want to be a prisoner I want to be set free Won't you let me be, I want to go

I don't want to be a prisoner I want to go and die No, don't ask me why, just let me be

Unchain my hands Unchain my hands Unchain my hands Unchain my hands

A PLACE FOR YOU Written & Composed by Michael Woodhead Copyright © 1966, 2021

There’s a place for you beside me If you say you’ll be my own There’s a place for you inside me In my heart, you’d be at home

There’s a place for you today, dear If you say you’ll be my girl There’s a place for you to stay here In my heart, not in the world

There’s a place for you beside me If you say you’ll be my own There’s a place for you inside me In my heart, you’d be at home

There’s a place for you today, dear If you say you’ll be my girl There’s a place for you to stay here In my heart, not in the world

HE STOOD BY Written & Composed by Michael Woodhead Copyright ©1975, 2021

He stood by and waited Until I reached a time When I could go no further When I could not find my mind Then he reached down and touched me His love filled my soul Jesus is my Saviour Who made me me pure and whole

He stood by and waited Till I could run no more I searched for truth and happiness But my thoughts were washed ashore Then he reached down and pulled me From the mud and mire Jesus is my Saviour Who set my soul on fire

[Musical Verse]

He stood by and waited Till I got down on my knees Sacrificed my life to him I said Jesus, save me, please Then he reached down and saved me Now, I'm heaven bound Jesus is my Saviour I sing this joyful sound

PRIESTESS Written & Composed by Michael Woodhead Copyright © 1969, 2021

Priestess of the Temple Love, call Emmanuel Cry unto your god above and rid us of this hell

Priestess of the Temple Love, move us from this place Send us far upon the dove and rid us of this face

Though we've hated Contemplated Many false desires Though we've mated Desecrated Girls', boys' fires

[Musical Verses]

Though we've hated Contemplated Many false desires Though we've mated Desecrated Girls', boys' fires

Priestess of the Temple Love, hear our pleas we pray We desire to take true Love to all the world today

Priestess of the Temple Love, call Emmanuel Cry unto your god above and rid us of this hell

Though we've hated Contemplated Many false desires Though we've mated Desecrated Girls', boys' fires

Priestess of the Temple Love
