20 years from now when this day doesn’t make a difference to you

or to me

When you got your own life

And your own points of view

And you’ll wanna argue my teachings

With your new way of the modern times

 

Tonight as I walk you across the floor

Trying to comfort my baby boy

And these thoughts go through my head

What about what everybody has said

 

I always thought I could go the distance

I wonder what kind of father I’ll be

One like mine or one like somebody on TV

I see so many mothers walking their baby

I hear so many fathers talking neglect

But I love my son!

 

(Music)

 

And when I die and leave this earth

I hope my son is still alive

To carry on and keep me alive to

 

And tonight

You won’t remember this

But I will never forget it

And now as I walk you across the floor

I’m praying to God to keep me sturdy

To keep me a part of

To keep us connected

And keep me supportive

 

I want to walk my son in the sunshine

And I want to see him shine

And if I have any other children

Be it boy or girl

I hope I can love them all the same

And tonight it hurts me to see him hurting

I wonder if always I will feel this same thing

Towards my son!

I love rock n roll

I love rocking with my band

And I have this good friend

And he’s the guitar man

Play on child!

 

(short guitar solo)

 

And he’s got a mama who loves rock n roll

Ain’t much mamas like that in this part of the world

 

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

 

You may not like this song

Cause it’s not as good as another one

Bit Mrs. Lancaster please you know

Although we rock we ain’t that good

But will get better as time goes on

You may have a legend in your son

Rock n roll will never ever die

Cause bands like us will keep it alive

So rock on mama

While your son play guitar!

 

(solo)

 

Rock n roll

Is music for the soul

Tell the world

We came to take control

We’ll strike up the band

And let our guitars ring

Rock the bass n drums

And then we start to sing

And sing a song to save the world

Sing a song for our special girl

Sing the song to keep rockers rockin

We can sing a song bout everything

But this song here’s a dedication

To a special rocking someone

Mrs Lancaster here’s to you

We raise our hands to rock

Never knew a mother like you

Giving support around the clock, oh

 

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

 

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

 

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

 

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

                Rockin’ mama

                Rollin’ mama

 

                Rockin’ Mama!

Live your life like a typeset,
An identical photo of Himself
Every where you go
Let all the world know
His Name is Jesus
He bled to redeem us

In this time of mass affliction
A world in chaos and confusion
Those who claim to have the gift of healing
Their shady truth have been unraveling
This is the time of the great debate
Stand by your conviction of your faith
The righteous path must not be tainted
By pictures false teachers painted
Y’shua , our Emmanuel
Follow the message He had tell


Live your life like a typeset,
An identical photo of Himself
Every where you go
Let all the world know
His Name is Jesus
He bled to redeem us

The people of the world have opinions and beliefs
All kinds of conspiracy and philosophical theories
Truth can vary in geographical and cultural context
Causing wars and discrimination so utterly perplex
If all those ideologies are a map that leads to the ultimate truth
Then no belief would be cast aside as a substitute
But the Son of God born of woman has stated His claim
In the language that I use Jesus is His Name

Live your life like a typeset,
An identical photo of Himself
Every where you go
Let all the world know
His Name is Jesus
He bled to redeem us

Maybe the day will come
Maybe we all here would witness
Maybe future generations
Would be raptured in the fullness
No time to contemplate
No sense to speculate
To try to pick a date
We all must trust in faith
Speaking for myself
I been an unbelieving skeptic
I been seeking real long
Till a sign made me accept it
Jesus is my truth and my way
It ain’t easy to follow every day
I try often to build my faith and pray
His word lives and guides me from going astray
Not saying I won’t fall short many times
But His Grace sure is sufficient
So to everyone I met I feel inclined
To what I believe is magnificent

Live your life like a typeset,
An identical photo of Himself
Every where you go
Let all the world know
His Name is Jesus
He bled to redeem us

Yeah

His Name is Jesus

He bled to redeem us

His Name is Jesus

We got to be a photocopy of Him

We got to be a photocopy of Him

We got to be a photocopy of Him

His Name is Jesus

He bled to redeem us

We must be a photocopy of Him

We must be a photocopy of Him

We must be a photocopy of Him

a photocopy of Him

a photocopy of Him

a photo copy of

Him!
