Say The Words (Now)
[You gotta say it, you gotta say it]
Silence is golden but these are the words
That the world needs to hear
[Brothers and sisters]
Terms of compassion will cause a reaction
As love drawls them near
But still we choose to hide behind the face of pride
Pretending we are blind to the calling
This is my point and case, if hate can be erased
With such a simple phrase, why are we stalling?
(chorus)
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you"
[Say "I love you"]
Say the words I long to hear
[I long to hear them]
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you"
[Say "I love you"]
Say the words I long to hear
[I long, I long, I long to hear them]
Ya gotta say it, ya gotta say it, say it
Some just assume we already know
Of the love that they feel
[Brothers and sisters]
Some have a heartfelt emotion
But never the words to reveal
I think we all relate, so why are we afraid
To let our hearts convey what we're feeling?
There is a world in need with hungry souls to feed
And love can intercede if we're willing, so...
(repeat chorus)
Ya gotta say it, ya gotta say it, say it
The word love, well it was once overused
Back in the 70's the word was abused
But I refuse to let love be diluted
We can't allow physical lust to intrude it
Or pollute it cause there ain't no excuse
For the greatest gift of all to be abused
So choose to lose the pride that may tug at you
Don't be afraid of the words "I love you"
(repeat chorus 2x)

Mr. Morgan Act I
My name is [Richard?] Morgan
And I live next door to
Where the Gotee's sit
Well, I layed in the bed
After I get eye operated on that day
And I heard the drummer beatin' over next door
And I asked my wife, I said,
"Did you hear that noise over next door?"
She said, "yeah"
I said, "Well you won't hear it long
'Cause I'm gone stop it"
So I got up, put my clothes on
And I went over there and I beat on the door
I had this patch over my eye and
Toby stuck his head out 'round the shade
And I told him to get hisself out here
I wanted to see him
And a man told me I'd have to
Come over there with a baseball bat
But I won't need no baseball bat
To whip Toby if I have to wip him
So he cut the noise out and
So I come on back home and went to bed
And slept the rest of the night
They quieted down over there now
And I never have no more trouble out of 'em
[They] infact they're all good boys now
So that's about all I know I guess [3x]

Chance
People watching
Every life a mystery
Sunny faces
But you know the story's incomplete
Satisfaction [satisfaction]
It seems a million miles away
So I'm moving to another state of mind
[Another state of mind]
I'm believing there's no better place
Or better time
(chorus)
And every day we live
There's a chance to give
And every time we speak
There's a chance for peace
And every day we live
There's a chance
[Ahhh] Little sister
Put aside your fear and breath
In the secret
Do you hear the voice of heaven saying
Come together [Come together]
Hope is stronger than it seems
Where you're standing
There's no running out on love
[No running out on love]
Only human
But you've set your eyes on the things above
(repeat chorus)
To give
And every time we speak
There's a chance for you
And a chance for me
A chance to serve
And a time of need
A chance to live
A chance to tell
A chance to lose yourself
(repeat chorus 2x)
Oh, there's a chance.

Sugar Coat It
Movin' at the speed of sound
There has never been a lull in the motion
Conversations swirl around
Strangers questioning their devotion
Welcome to the world of talk shows
Where everybody seems to know
People talk and never listen
Come to their conclusions
So we'll feed 'em with the spoon
That makes the medicine go down
(chorus)
Baby you got it
Baby we wrote it
Maybe you thought that we sugar coat it
Aint gonna hide it
Gotta expose it
Yeah, we're gonna let our light shine
Standing on the stage of life
We are waiting for the final curtain
You can take a seat and watch tonight
But you're gonna get more than you came for
Bam
And welcome to our jam
Where folks are getting down
The Jesus freaks from
Every part of this here town
You can try and ask us why
We came to this solution
Though words may fly
You can't deny
It's in the air tonight
(repeat chorus 2x)
Boom
They thought we'd change our tune
They thought that we'd go bust
They thought we'd crumble
Like my grandma's flakey crust
Kapow, up in the here and now
The truth is screaming big
A light so bright
Whether day or night
It can't be hid
Baby you got it
Baby we wrote it
Aint gonna hide it
Yeah, we're gonna let our love light shine
(repeat chorus)
Let your love shine
Let your love shine
Let your love shine
Let your love light shine
Your love light shine
Let your love shine
Let your love shine
Let your love shine
Let your love light shine
Sugar coat it

Mrs. Morgan Act II
I had rather tell about
How many people have come here
Since I was on the Jesus Freak record
And people have been here
From at least 20 states, haven't they?
[Yeah] At least 20 states
Wanting my autograph and picture
I have met a whole lot of nice people
And I think I've had my 15 minutes of fame
I have met a whole lot of nice people and
I think [5x]
I've had my 15 minutes of fame [2x]
I think [7x]
