SONG # 1

ISAIAH 53

Thomas C. Roth

PROFILE

From the beginning when songs would come, they would come about in minutes, always melody and words coming together at the same time.
In 1984 I had a guitar rhythm and a melody and no words, I would try to write words for the melody but no ideas would come, and this went on for weeks. It really started to annoy me. Everytime I picked up the guitar, I started playing the song but I had no words.
One morning while still 1/2 sleeping. I knew the words for the song were in the Bible, in the book of Isaiah, and in chapter 53. When I gained a full state of consciousness, I ran to get my Bible and guitar. Sure enough it all came together and the song was completed in just a short time.
Isaiah 53 is from the first verses of chapter 53 found in the book of Isaiah, one line is from Hebrews 2:3. One line is in reference to John 14:6 and I am still amazed how John 3:16 flows so seemlessly into the melody. All the verses come from the K.J.V. ( King James Version )
In first Corinthians 1:18 ( The preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishnesss; But unto us which are saved it is the power of God.)
I pray this song will go forth and acomplish the will of our Lord.

ISAIAH 53

Verse 1

Who has believed us, when we gave our report and to who is revealed, the arm of the Lord, For He shall grow up before Him as a Tender Plant and as a root out of dry ground, He has no form and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him

Verse 2

 He is despised and rejected of men, a man of sorrow aquainted with grief, and we hid our face from Him, He was despised we esteemed Him not, He has born our griefs and carried our sorrows, and we esteemed Him stricken, smitten and afflicted of God

Verse 3

He was wounded for our transgressions, and he was bruised, for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was on Him, and by His Stripes we are Healed, we are like Sheep we've all gone astray and the Lord laid upon Him the iniquity of us all.

Verse 4

So how can we neglect, so great a salvation, and turn down, the Only I am the Way

For God, So, Loved The World, That He Gave His Only Begotten Son, That Whosoever, Will Believe In Him, Will Not Perish, But Have Everlasting Life,

Will Not Perish, But Have Everlasting Life

Who has believed us when we gave our report

 

Song # 2  

ELIJAH

 Thomas C. Roth

Profile

This song is not intended to induce or add to the growing number of cases of ( S.H.M.T.Y.N.E.G.) which seems to be reaching epidemic proportions among some who are called Christians.This odd behavioral problem that I am speaking about (S.H.M.T.Y.N.E.G. ) i.e. ( So Heavenly Minded That Your No Earthly Good )seems to have no effect on non believers.  However I believe this song is in accordance with First Thessalonians 4:18.( Wherefore comfort one another with these words)

P.S. If you want to know what words First Thessalonians 4:18 is referring to, you will have to read First Thessalonians 4:16 and 17.

Verse 1

I KNOW SOME DAY I'LL FLY HIGH LIKE ELIJAH DID IN A CHARIOT IN THE SKY

AND THE WORLD WILL HAVE NO HOLD ON ME BECAUSE THE TRUTH WILL HAVE SET ME FREE

LEAVING WOULD BE A GAIN FOR ME BUT I KNOW, THAT HE WANTS ME TO REMAIN

AND TRY TO PLANT THE TENDER SEED FOR NOW IS THE TIME OF THE LATTER RAIN

Chorus

IN HOPE THE WORLD MIGHT SEE, WHAT HE DID AT CALVERY

OH IF THEY ONLY KNEW, THAT HIS BLOOD WAS SHED FOR THEM TOO

WELL I KNOW SOMEDAY I'LL FLY HIGH LIKE ELIJAH DID IN A CHARIOT IN THE SKY

BUT UNTIL THAT DAY THERE'S WORK TO DO

AND I'LL SERVE HIM AND DO THE BEST I CAN

Verse 2

WELL I KNOW SOMEDAY I'LL SIT AND TALK TO ABRAHAM, MOSES, AND DANIEL

ABOUT THE LION'S DEN, THE BURNING BUSH

I'LL EVEN GET TO MEET ALL THE DISCIPLES

REJOICING IN THE LORD FOR EVERMORE AND I'LL NEVER CRY AGAIN

BUT UNTIL THAT DAY THERE'S WORK TO DO

AND I'LL SERVE HIM AND DO THE BEST I CAN

Chorus

IN HOPE THE WORLD MIGHT SEE, WHAT HE DID AT CALVERY

OH IF THEY ONLY KNEW, THAT HIS BLOOD WAS SHED FOR THEM TOO

WELL I KNOW SOMEDAY I'LL FLY HIGH LIKE ELIJAH DID IN A CHARIOT IN THE SKY

BUT UNTIL THAT DAY THERE'S WORK TO DO AND I'LL SERVE HIM

AND DO THE BEST I CAN

YEA UNTIL THAT DAY THERE'S WORK TO DO

AND I'LL SERVE HIM AND DO THE BEST I CAN

UNTIL THAT DAY THERE'S WORK TO DO

AND I'LL SERVE HIM AND DO THE BEST I CAN

UNTIL THAT DAY THERE'S WORK TO DO

AND I'LL SERVE HIM AND DO THE BEST I CAN

 

Song # 3

 

YOUR LOVE IS FINE

 

 Thomas C. Roth

PROFILE

Two character definitions from the dictionary concerning the word ( FINE ) is

1. FREE FROM IMPURITY

2.SUPERIOR IN QUALITY OR APPEARANCE

I would like to confess that I did not know the literary meaning of the word FINE when the song came. It just seemed to express what I was feeling. However, Looking back accross the years of time, I can say with all assurance, that the LOVE of GOD, is Perfect, is Pure, and is Forever

Song came late 1980's

 

 

Verse 1

IF I LOOKED INTO TOMORROW, WOULD I SEE THAT YOU WOULD BE WITH ME

AFTER I HAVE TOLD YOU, THAT THE WAY I AM IS NOT THE WAY, I WANT TO BE

REMEMBERING ON YESTERDAY I KNOW THAT YOU WOULD FIND A WAY

TO HOLD ME CLOSE AND TELL ME

THAT YOUR LOVE WOULD BE RIGHT HERE, TODAY

Chorus

OH YOUR LOVE IS FINE, YES YOUR LOVE IS FINE

OH YOUR LOVE IS FINE, YES YOUR LOVE IS FINE

Verse 2

I SEE YOU WITH MY MIND'S OWN EYE, IN YOUR WORD I REALIZE

YOU LOVE US ALL TOGETHER, YOU'LL BE HERE FOREVER

OH THIS I KNOW

I'M LIKE A LITTLE BOY WHO FOUND HIMSELF A BRAND NEW TOY

DON'T WANT TO BREAK IT, IT BRINGS SUCH JOY

Chorus

OH YOUR LOVE IS FINE, YES YOUR LOVE IS FINE

OH YOUR LOVE IS FINE, YES YOUR LOVE IS FINE

Ending

OH YOUR LOVE IS FINE, YES YOUR LOVE IS FINE

OH YOUR LOVE IS FINE, YES YOUR LOVE IS FINE

 

Song # 4

THEY'RE ALL GONE

PROFILE

Thomas C. Roth

A humble tribute to all those who lost their lives during the Hurricane Katrina

August 25 2005 in Florida thru the New Orleans and Gulf Regions Disaster Days Later

 The final death toll of Hurricane Katrina was 1,836 people,

Verse 1

THE HURRICANE WAS COMING, RIGHT FOR NEW ORLEANS

WITH WINDS AND HIGH WATER THAT MANKIND HAS RARELY SEEN

THOSE THAT COULD WERE LEAVING

THE POOR WERE LEFT BEHIND

THEY MUST FIND SOME SHELTER

THEY ARE OUT OF TIME

HOLD ON, HERE COMES THE STORM!

Verse 2

THE MORNING HOURS WERE DARKENED THE WIND TOOK OUT THE LIGHTS

AND AS THE SOUNDS GREW LOUDER FEAR TURN INTO FRIGHT

ALL AROUND THE SOUTHERN COAST, THE WAVES CAME CRASHING IN

LEAVING JUST A MEMORY OF WHERE THE LIVES HAD BEEN

THEY'RE ALL GONE, THEY'RE ALL GONE

Verse 3

THE HOURS AND DAYS THAT FOLLOWED, NO ONE COULD FORSEE

THE HURT AND PAIN AND SUFFERING THE TOTAL AGONY

EVERYONE WHO SURVIVED WILL HAVE TO CARRY ON

CARRY ON THE HOPES AND DREAMS OF ALL

THE ONES PASSED ONE

THEY'RE ALL GONE

THEY'REALL GONE

Repeat till ending

 

Song # 5

 

PLEASE

Thomas C. Roth

This song came around 1969, shortly after Our Heavenly Father reached out to save me as He has reached out to save everyone who has come to Jesus Christ.Gospel of John Chapter 6 Verse 44

Verse 1

LISTEN TO THE WORDS I SAY AND MAYBE THEY WILL HELP YOU FIND YOUR WAY

I ONLY SAY'EM CAUSE I CARE FOR MY FELLOW MAN WHO'S EVERYWHERE

THIS FEELING THAT I HAVE INSIDE IS TO HARD FOR ME TO TRY TO HIDE

SO DON'T WORRY YOURSELF MY FREIND FOR ALL I AM ASKING IS YOUR TIME

I'M ASKING PLEASE

Verse 2

THERE WAS ONE THAT CAME WITH LOVE WITH ALL THE GIFTS THAT HEAVEN HAD ABOVE

HE CAME NOT TO JUDGE ALL MAN BUT TO TAKE THEIR WORRIES IN HIS HANDS

AND I DON'T THINK I UNDERSTAND THE WAY THAT THEY ALWAYS TREATED HIM

FOR AFTER ALL I KNOW HE WAS ONLY TRYING TO LEAD THEM FROM THEIR SINS

BY ASKING PLEASE, BELIEVE IN ME

Verse 3

NOW HE WENT FROM TOWN TO TOWN AND HE ALWAYS BLESSED THE ONES WHO WERE DOWN

AND FOR THE ONES IN NEED YOU KNOW THAT HE WAS THE ONE WHO CAME AROUND

NOW HE HEALED THE SICK AND HE RAISED THE DEAD AND HE ALWAYS DID THE THINGS

THE FATHER SAID

BUT BECAUSE HE WAS RIGHTEOUS YOU KNOW THAT THE WORLD THEY HUNG HIM DEAD

BUT HE SAID PLEASE, BELIEVE IN ME

 

Verse 4

NOW HE HAD THE POWER IN HIS HANDS MUCH MORE THAN ANY MAN

FOR HE COULD TURN A STORM AROUND BY JUST ONE SIMPLE COMMAND

BUT HE DID NOT FIGHT THEM WHEN THEY TOOK HIM TO THE CROSS TO DIE

FOR HE WAS THE LAMB OF GOD AND THEY KNEW IN THEIR SOULS WHEN HE CRIED

FATHER PLEASE FORGIVE THEM ALL

FATHER PLEASE FORGIVE THEM ALL

FATHER PLEASE FORGIVE THEM ALL

FATHER PLEASE FORGIVE THEM ALL

PROFILE

 Thomas C. Roth

     I like everyone else, asked the question, WHY? After the Columbine High School massacre which occurred on Tuesday, April 20, 1999, at Columbine High School in Jefferson County, Colorado. Where two teenage students, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, carried out a shooting rampage, killing twelve fellow students and a teacher, as well as wounding twenty-four others, before committing suicide. which was the deadliest school shooting in American History up until this point.
The answer to the question WHY?is not complicated or hard to understand when you compare the society of today in relationship to God's Word.In 1947 in the case of Everson vs. Board of Education The Supreme court ruled 
The First Amendment has erected a wall between church and state. That wall must be kept high and impregnable. We could not approve the slightest breach.)
So armed with this precept form the Supreme Court of The United States of America the ones with the insight started to dismantle the foundation of our society,
In October 1961 the Supreme Court ruled in the case "Engel, vs. Vitale" (It is unconstitutional to offer verbal prayers in a school, regardless of denominational neutrality and voluntary participation.)
This ruling removed prayer from American schools even though for 185 years prayer was allowed in public.
The ones with the insight removed God from American schools, and what does God say, Psalm 14 verse 1, ( The Fool has said in his heart, There is no God.......) So I quess I can assume from God's word, that the ones who were leading the charge which resulted in the rulings to remove Prayer and the reading of the Bible from American schools were ( FOOLS ) not to mention the ones who had the decision making authority.
1999 was 38 years after the 1961 ruling against prayer and bible reading, 38 years is 2 years short of the 40 years considered by myself to be a social generation, for God waited 40 years, till the unbelievers died, before the children of Israel could go into the promised land. i.e. Numbers Chapter 14 verses 27 thru 37
So with the passing of each year America is slowly coming to the point, where the children of Israel came to. Judges chapter 2 verse10 (....and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the Lord, nor yet the works which he done for Israel.)
America's beginning was the work of God, The blessings of God have always been bestowed on America. But now we can see The United States of America has walked away from His Blessings. America is being spoiled, our land, our jobs, our riches, our peace, our safety, our children, everything that has sustaned us, is all fading away. There is only one way to stop the fall of America,

SECOND CHRONICLES 7:14 ( IF MY PEOPLE, WHICH ARE CALLED BY MY NAME, SHALL HUMBLE THEMSELVES, AND PRAY AND SEEK MY FACE, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS; THEN WILL I HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SINS, AND WILL HEAL THEIR LAND

TRUST IN THE LORD

 

 Thomas C. Roth

PROFILE

While reading the passages found in the book of Joshua where the children of Israel were told to get ready to go into the promised land ( Joshua chapter 3 ). I started to imagine what it must have been like for Joshua and the Levites and for the children of Israel.

While reading (Joshua 3:7) I knew our Lord wanted to prove to the children of Israel that as he was with Moses, so too, he was going to be with Joshua.

However, I am reading this real life drama in the comfort of my home, long after it happened, and when this was taking place, Joshua and the children of Israel were living thru it.

Now Joshua was man like any other man, and here he was being told to cross over the river Jordan, that just happened to be flooded. ( Joshua 3:15) and to top it off, the river will not dry up until the soles of the Levites feet touch the water, ( Joshua 3:13 )

I had to pause from reading to think about this. It's one thing to be told by God to cross a flooded river, but to add the part about the souls of the feet of the Levites was pushing the limits of what I would like, if I were Joshua.

Now this is where my imagination took over. If I were Joshua, I would probably have climbed up on a hillside to look things over before saying anything to anybody about what I had heard from God. Just to make sure I understood what I thought I understood.

From a hillside one could see the flooded river and the children of Israel. The children of Israel would have to begin preparations to move on, by packing up everything they owned.

Now we all have been put into trials where our faith was tested, but this was really something. Joshua might have been thinking, what if this doesn't work? this crowd is really gonna be mad, they are going to pack up everything, tents,cows,wagons,etc. for what? to go stand in a flooded river? and I could picture the look on the faces of the Levites when Joshua told them about what was going to take place. I could see the men look at the flooded river. I could understand if some of the men would have had second thoughts, like,( I hope Joshua knows what he's doing )

Our Lord could have dried the river bed where the people would cross before they started to pack up. or right after they packed up before the Levites lifted up the Ark, or right after the Levites lifted the Ark before they started walking, or maybe when the Levites were1/2 mile from the river, or maybe 1/4 mile, howabout 100 yards, 100 feet, 10 inches? No, it was not untill their feet touched the water, then the water dried up. The old saying holds true, ( Our Lord is never early, He is never late, He's always right on time )

I am sure when we look back accross the times in our lives, we can see this has been true. Our 20/20 hind sight rarely needs to be brought into focus, it is our foresight in times of trouble or in times of trial which come about to give our spiritual muscles some exercise that needs to be improved. I know this song has helped me to remember to walk by faith and to trust in the word of God and not to rely on the things that I see. I hope it will help others also.

PAUL'S REQUEST

 

Thomas C. Roth

Paul's Request came in1984. It is the 3rd song given on the subject of division found within the body of Christ .
The Holy spirit speaking thru Paul in his letter to the Corinthians is the inspiration.
The first verse comes from ( I Corinthians chapter 1 verses 10 thru13 )
The 2nd verse hints at ( Doctrinal Statements ) which is something I could never understand,
I do not see the need for Doctrinal Statements.When we could say.
THE WORD OF GOD = DOCTRINAL STATEMENT
The bridge continues with the request
Verse 3 Starts with the question I hope will magnify the complete nonsense of division.
HOW CAN WE GO ON?
Verse 3 concludes with a open prayer.

 

I hope this song will inspire others to pray and work for unity to come to the Body of Christ.

Verse 1

NOW I BESEECH YOU BROTHERS IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD

THAT WE ALL SPEAK THE SAME AND BE IN ONE ACCORD

AND THAT THERE BE NO DIVISIONS AMONG YOU

AND THAT YOU BE JOINED TOGETHER IN LOVE'N

AND THAT YOU HAVE THE SAME MIND AND JUDGEMENT

AND BE UNITED IN THE LORD

Verse 2

WE ARE DIVIDED IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD

UNDERLINED DIVISIONS THAT NEED TO BE RESTORED

FOR HIS MESSAGE IS NOT CLEAR TO SEE

WHEN WE LIVE WITHOUT THE HARMONY

MANY HAVE AGREED TO DISAGREE

AND BE DIVIDED IN THE LORD

NOW I BESEECH YOU BROTHERS IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD

THAT WE BE NOT DIVIDED IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD

HOW CAN WE GO ON DIVIDED IN THE LORD

JESUS SHOW US THE WAY TO BE RESTORED
