I Believe lyrics - Dolly Parton
I believe for every drop of rain that falls, a flower grows
And I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
I believe for everyone who goes astray
Someone will come to show the way
Yes I believe, Oh I believe
I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe
I believe
Oh I believe
Yes I See God lyrics - Dolly Parton
Yes I see God where the mountains reach the sky
And I see God when the eagle starts to fly
I see God in a little baby's smile I see God and he makes my life worthwhile
Yes I see God when the bridegroom meets his bride
I see God in a father's loving eyes
I see God when a mother starts to cry I see God in a love that never dies
(I see God) where the people meet to pray (I see God) in the things they do and say
(I see God) when the little children play
I see God and I know he's near all way
I see God yes I see God
Master's Hand lyrics - Dolly Parton
"Twas battered and scared, and the auctioneer
Thought it scarcely worth his while
To waste much time on the old violin,
But he held it up with a smile.
"What am I bidden, good folks," he cried,
"Who'll start bidding for me?
A dollar, a dollar - now who"ll make it two
Two dollars, and who"ll make it three?
"Three dollars once, three dollars twice,
Going for three". . . but no!
From the room far back a gray-haired man
Came forward and picked up the bow;
Then wiping the dust from the old violin,
And tightening up the strings,
He played a melody,pure and sweet,
As sweet as an angel sings.
The music ceased and the auctioneer
With a voice that was quiet and low,
Said: "What am I bidden for the old violin?"
And he held it up with the bow;
"A thousand dollars - and who'll make it two?
Two thousand - and who'll make it three?
Three thousand once, three thousand twice
And going - and gone," said he.
The people cheered, but some of them cried,
"We do not quite understand -
What changed its worth?" The man replied:
"The touch of the masters hand."
And many a man with life out of tune,
And battered and torn with sin,
Is auctioned cheap to a thoughtless crowd.
Much like the old violin.
A "mess of pottage," a glass of wine,
A game and he travels on,
He's going once, and going twice -
He's going - and almost gone!
But the MASTER comes, and the foolish crowd,
Never can quite understand,
The worth of a soul, and the change that's wrought
By the touch of the MASTER'S hand.
Heaven's Just A Prayer Away lyrics - Dolly Parton
If you're trying to reach Heaven
You talk to Jesus, you talk to Him every day.
'Cause Jesus knows, He knows that you are coming
And Heaven's just a prayer away.
If you go, if you go to church on Sunday
You get down on your knees and pray
And give your heart and your soul to Jesus.
Heaven's just a prayer away.
You are just one prayer from Heaven
As you travel down life's highway.
Just when you think that you can't make it,
Well, Heaven's just a prayer away.
Of, if you go, if you go to church on Sunday
You get down on your knees and pray
And give your heart and give your soul to Jesus.
Heaven's just a prayer away.
Heaven's just a prayer away.
Away.
Golden Streets Of Glory lyrics - Dolly Parton
Glory to His name, oh, holy, holy
There's a city where the streets are paved in gold
A land where the milk and the honey flow
And a mansion which for me
'Cause my bible tells the story
I just hope my feet are clean enough
To walk upon the golden streets of glory
Green meadows where the little children play
No sorrow there, just one long happy day
And none will litter there except the pure and the holy
I just hope my feet are clean enough
To walk upon the golden streets of glory
And when I've reached my journey's end
And if I'm worthy to go in
Golden streets of glory, I walk on
And the golden streets of my new home
Will lead me up to the master's throne
With the angel band I'll sing
Glory to His name, oh, holy, holy
I just hope my feet are clean enough
To walk upon the golden streets of glory
Hallelujah, I just hope my feet are clean enough
To walk upon the golden streets of glory
And when I've reached my journey's end
And if I'm worthy to go in
Golden streets of glory, I'll walk on
And the golden streets of my new home
Will lead me up to the master's throne
With the angel band I'll sing
Glory to His name, oh, holy, holy
I just hope my feet are clean enough
To walk upon the golden streets of glory
Hallelujah, I just hope my feet are clean enough
To walk upon the golden streets of glory
How Great Thou Art lyrics - Dolly Parton
Oh Lord my God when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made
Now I see the stars and I hear the rolling thunder
Thy art throughout the universe displayed
Then sings my soul my Saviour God to Thee how great Thou art oh how great Thou art
Then sings my soul my Saviour God to Thee how great Thou art how great Thou art
When Christ shall come with shouts of acclamation
To take me home what joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall kneel in humble adoration and there proclaim my God how great Thou art
Then sings my soul...
I'll Keep Climbing lyrics - Dolly Parton
As I travel life's pathway to that city beyond
I find the way so narrow and my strenght almost gone
Then I cry oh Lord have mercy please don't leave me all alone
Cause somehow I've got to make it make heaven my home
I'll keep climbing I'll keep climbing till I make it my home
And I'll soon be with Jesus round the great white throne
Though the way may seem rugged Lord I must travel on
I'll keep climbing I'll keep climbing till I make heaven my home
My friends they forsake me my companions are few
I'll keep my eyes toward heaven no matter what others do
I'll keep my mind upon Jesus for his way I will choose
Soon I'll reach heaven's portal seems it's almost in view
I'll keep climbing...
I'll keep climbing...
Make heaven my home
Book Of Life lyrics - Dolly Parton
Is my name written there on those pages bright and fair
Is my name written in the book of life
If you want to be up there then down here you must prepare
And your name must be in the book of life
Get down on your knees and pray you from sin must turn away
Or your name won't be in the book of life
If you'll turn to Jesus now at his feet just humbly bow
Then your name will be in the book of life
[Piano]
Don't you know that Christ was sent that from sin you could repent
So your name could be in the book of life
You will have a great surprise if you fail to recognize
That your name must be in the book of life
Get down on your knees and pray you from sin must turn away
Or your name won't be in the book of life
Don't delay and don't forget that from sin you must repent
Then your name will be in the book of life
Is my name written in the book of life
Wings Of A Dove lyrics - Dolly Parton
When troubles surround us, when evils come
The body grows weak
The spirit grows numb
When these things beset us, God doesn't forget us
He sends us His love
On the wings of a snow-white dove
He sends His pure sweet love
A sign from above
On the wings of a dove
When Jesus went down through the river that day
Well, he was baptised in the usual way
And when it was done
God blessed His son
He sent him His love
On the wings of a dove
On the wings of a snow-white dove
He sends His pure sweet love
A sign from above
On the wings of a dove
On the wings of a snow-white dove
He sends His pure sweet love
A sign from above
On the wings of a dove
Lord, Hold My Hand lyrics - Dolly Parton
Hold my hand let's not lose my way hold my hand and lead me home
Guide each step that I might take hold my hand and keep me strong
And let the path I walk be straight let the deeds I do be kind
Let me never hesitate to help my brother walking blind
Hold my hand...
And let my words have meaning of anything that I might speak
If you see me leaning on just hold my hand and straighten me
Hold my hand...
Amen
The Pain Of Loving You lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
Oh, the pain of loving you
Oh, the misery I go through
Never knowing what to do
Oh, the pain of loving you
You just can't stand to see me happy
Seems you hurt me all you can
Still I go on loving you
But I never understand
Oh, the pain of loving you
Oh, the misery I go through
Never knowing what to do
Oh, the pain of loving you
To love and hate at the same time
The line between the two is fine
The two have bound me heart and soul
So strong that I can't let you go
Oh, the pain of loving you
Oh, the misery I go through
Never knowing what to do
Oh, the pain of loving you
Possum Holler lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
As time goes by the tales grow taller
About possum in Possum Holler
As a young man I'd go a courtin'
With my sweetheart so young and fair
Down the mountain to Possum Holler
That's where he'd always find me waitin' there
Now I tell my mama that I's goin' out walking
Neath the moonlight so bright and fair
And I'd tell daddy I was huntin' possum
And take off a grinnin' and a slickin' down my hair
As time goes by the tales grow taller
About possum in Possum Holler
Then one evening in Possum Holler
My sweetheart's daddy stopped all our fun
Yeah, we got married in Possum Holler
Just you and me my daddy and daddy's gun
As time goes by the tales grow taller
About possum in Possum Holler
Now when they see a possum hunter
Young and handsome and a smellin' fair
We just lean back and bust our laughin'
'Cause we know there ain't no possum there
As time goes by the tales grow taller
About possum in Possum Holler
About possum in Possum Holler
Is It Real? lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
You came into my life at a time when I was down
And I thought I'd never love again but I think different now
You took my hand and helped me up and I thank you for your precious love
And words cannot express the way I feel but is it real
Is it real this love that you have offered me so freely
You tell me that you love me but darling do you really
Don't make me love and lose again don't make me go through that again
I've known that hurt and I know how it feels oh is it real
Well, you could mend my broken heart with love as sweet as yours
And I want to believe it's real but how can I be sure
And you could heal the hurt I've known with the love that you have shown
And all the needs you have I will fulfill but is it real
Is it real this love that you have offered me so freely
You tell me that you love me but darling do you really
Don't make me love and lose again don't make me go through that again
I've known that hurt and I know how it feels oh is it real
Is it real?
The Flame lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
I find myself remembering things I thought I'd forgot
I thought I'd gotten over you but I can see I've not
And seeing you has made me realize how wrong I've been
And the torch I've carried for so long is burning bright again
The flame is burning bright again it just took my seeing you to know
That the flame had not burned out it just had flickered low
Yes, I still love you just as much as I ever did before
The flame is burning bright again and I can't fight it anymore
Could it be your seeing me has set your heart on fire
Could it be old memories has filled you with desire
Oh, if after all this time you find that you still feel the same
Then come and take my hand and walk with me into the flame
The flame is burning bright again it just took my seeing you to know
That the flame had not burned out it just had flickered low
Yes, I still love you just as much as I ever did before
The flame is burning bright again and I can't fight it anymore
The Fighting Kind lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
You and me cannot agree cause our love's the fightin' kind
Oh yes, you did you started it like you start all our fights
No, I didn't do no such thing and let that a dirty lie
Nothin's ever your fault and nothin's ever mine
You and me cannot agree cause our love's the fightin' kind
Well, you've burned the supper up again that's nothing new
I just figured you'd pack that all on me
Well, you're the one that caused it oh it's always me
When you're always lookin' faults ain't hard to find
We delight in pickin' fights cause our love's the fightin' kind
Two lovers both too stubborn
To take the blame for anything do we blame it on the other
Some love is understanding and there's careless love in line
It takes all sorts and mine and yours is known as the fightin' kind
Okay Miss Priss what is it now now I know you done this
What how am I supposed to shave that ain't never been my problem
Now I don't care about you using my razor
But did you have to use my brand new blade
New blade boy it's good that is really good
That's real good to think I went to all that trouble tryin' to fix that nice for you
That's fixed up nice I'll probably keep it for washin' the soap off the wall
Oh, there ain't no soap or I ain't got no television in the bathroom
And that new blade that you begrudged me had already been used
Two lovers both too stubborn
To take the blame for anything so we blame it on the other
What's mine is yours what's yours is yours and so on down the line
You and me cannot agree cause our love's the fightin' kind
You and me cannot agree cause our love's the fightin' kind
Two Of A Kind lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
I thought I'd been in love before but so did you
I thought that I would love no more but so did you
We'll always be together, forever yours forever mine
You and me, you and me are two of a kind
There's so much between you and me
Like sadness and disappointments, jealousy
Like respect and honor and admiration and a love so fine
You and me, you and me are two of a kind
I'd made promises to you that I couldn't keep
And you know I've said things to you that I didn't mean
We made our vows and we can never break the ties that bind
You and me, you and me are two of a kind
There's so much between you and me
Like sadness and disappointments, jealousy
Like respect and honor and admiration and a love so fine
You and me, you and me are two of a kind
All I Need Is You lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
Find the loneliest girl in a thousand
Find the saddest eyes you've ever seen
Find someone who's always longing for you
Find that man and you found me
And all I need is you, all I want is you
To give my loving to all I need is you
Find a man who wakes up every morning
And lives in a world of make believe
Find someone who's arms are aching for you
You find that girl and you found me
And all I need is you, all I want is you
To give my loving to all I need is you
You're with me now so let the world forsake us
I've found my heaven here within your arms
And nothing in this world can separate us
You're all I ever wanted all along
And all I need is you, all I want is you
To give my loving to all I need is you
Curse Of The Wild Weed Flower lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
Their thoughts are all mingled their dreams all confused
Their minds and their bodies how they abuse
Searching for answers that doesn't grow there
Bound by the curse of the wild weed flower
Their plans their desires and all of their hopes
Wither and die as they go up in smoke
Sharp as a needle and filled with despair
Such is the curse of the wild weed flower
From a moment of joy to a lifetime of sorrow
For one day of pleasure they trade their tomorrows
Lost in a garden where bulbs all grow
With blossoms of heartaches and petals of woe
Eyes full of emptiness just stand and stare
Bound by the curse of the wild weed flower
Bound by the curse of the wild weed flower
Bound by the curse of the wild weed flower
Today, Tomorrow And Forever lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
Today tomorrow and forever that's how long our love will last
I'll never stop loving you no never today tomorrow and forever
We've got the kind of love most people dream about
We're sure of our love in our mind there's no doubt
And I know that you love me by the things you do and say
And our love keeps growing stronger day after day
Today tomorrow and forever that's how long our love will last
I'll never stop loving you no never today tomorrow and forever
Each day you let me know just how much you care
And you know if you need me you know I'm always there
You don't have to say you love me over and over again
I know because you show me and I know our love won't end
Today tomorrow and forever that's how long our love will last
I'll never stop loving you no never today tomorrow and forever
There'll Be Love lyrics - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
There'll be love love love, oh precious love
Just as long as there's two people there'll be love
In spite of hate that fills the land, love will always have command
As long as there's two people there'll be love
God created man and woman at the start
And he placed inside of them a lovin' heart
But it wasn't God that made the hate and lust
But as long as there's two people there'll be love
There'll be love love love, oh precious love
Just as long as there's two people there'll be love
In spite of hate that fills the land, love will always have command
As long as there's two people there'll be love
For every person somewhere there's a mate
It's the force for survival that brings hate
For even though the going might be rough
As long as there's two people there'll be love
You can lock a man behind a prison wall
And you may think that he has no love at all
But there's someone somewhere that he's thinking of
For as long as there's two people there'll be love
There'll be love love love, oh precious love
Just as long as there's two people there'll be love
In spite of hate that fills the land, love will always have command
As long as there's two people there'll be love
