4TH SUNDAY

WELCOME BROTHERS!

Musical dynamics help our praise team shape the feeling of a song, not just the volume. Terms like piano (p – soft) and mezzo piano (mp – moderately soft) create intimate, reflective moments, while mezzo forte (mf – moderately loud) is our natural, full-band level. forte (f – loud) and fortissimo (ff – very loud) bring energy, confidence, and celebration—often in choruses or climactic sections. You’ll see these symbols in the lyric sections to guide how each part should feel; if no dynamic is marked, sing at the default level of mezzo forte (mf).

THE CANTON SPIRITUALS

Oh Lord, (Oh Lord)

I'm in your care right now

Yes I am Jesus (I'm in your care)

Oh Lord, hear me right now (Oh Lord)

I'm in your care right now

Yes I am (I'm in your care)

I've been singing a long time ya'll

Some of the times I got in trouble

I said Lord, "I want you to throw your loving arm

Around me, please (Your love around me)

So no evil, so no evil, so no evil (can harm me)

Oh, oh Lord, (Oh Lord)

Ya'll excuse me

I'm in your care right now

You see I had to learn how

To sing and cry at the same time

(I'm in your care)

Let me tell you something

Now tell me, how could I sing today? (Oh Lord)

And some of ya'll tell me

How could I praise (I'm in your care)

Church tell me, tell me

How could I sing a new song at him

I'm trying, I'm trying (Oh lord)

Oh lord, oh lord, I wouldn't know what to sing (I'm in your care)

You know when I get in trouble, when i get in trouble sometimes

I just get up and say, "Lord I want, just throw your lovin' arm around me"

You see I know I'm your child (Your love around me)

So, so no evil, looks like they got evil

I know they ain't gonna harm me (Can harm me)

Oh Lord, (oh Lord)

Sometimes, I have to call on to the name

Please, please Jesus (Oh Lord)

Sometimes I just give my God, alright, alright

And I say, "Oh Jesus, oh Jesus, oh Jesus, oh jesus (Oh Lord)

Have you all ever been in trouble?

And it seems you weren't gonna get out of there

And you just call on Jesus (Oh Lord)

Many times, I had to travel the road

With no money in my pocket (Oh Lord)

This group right here

We've been hungry, we've been hungry, we've been hungry sometimes

But we just kept calling on him

Wanting him to make a way (Oh Lord)

I'm in your care right now

Thank you, yes I am, thank you Lord (I'm in your care)

Thank you Lord, thank you Jesus, yes I, thank you Lord

Thank you Jesus

Thank you Jesus

Thank you Jesus

Thank you Jesus

If you in his care, if you in his care

If you in his care, just lift your hands

If we wouldn't have been in his care

If we wouldn't have been in his care

We couldn't have been here right now

I'm in your care (Care, care, care)

I'm in your care (Care, care, care)

Don't leave me, don't leave me (I'm in your care)

(Care, care)

You know what I ask of him?

As of when I get alone

Would you write me, would you write me

Would you write me Jesus
