Hearts on Fire

Put on your headphones and take it for a test drive.

Shibboleth by Dale Brown

She's not the Queen of Sheba, she's not the ace of spades
Kaffiyeh is not black coffee when you wear it on your head
Psychobabble is not some tower that you read about in Genesis
And shalom is not salami if your in the Middle East

She'll rat you out in London if you mispronounce the river Thames
A password is essential when you're outside your comfort zone
Shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth

Good English is important if your trying to fool the man
And Hasoos is not the savior if he swam the Rio Grand
Al Kitaab is an Arab's record but not like Steely Dan
Isa is not the savior if you are reading al-Quran

She can flush out an imposter, with her double edged sword
Light is more than noor, when your walking through the door
Her croissant is more than crescent, hamantashen is a villain's ears
Malachi is not Malachee, or the final word's you'll hear

Shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth


The Light by Dale Brown

Heah look at this, you'll like what you see
Heah look at this, come around and come with me
You see only a reflection, come follow me
The real thing is bonito, more glory to be free

There's light where I'm standing, it's bright can't you see
There's nothing where your standing, so take my hand and follow me

Heah look at this, I like what I see
Heah look at this turn around and come with me

There's light where I'm standing, it's bright can't you see
Take off those welding glasses, come and follow me

   “ “ “


There's more where this came from,there's much you can't see,
There's nothing where you're stand, so take my hand and follow me.
   “ “ “

Hearts on Fire by Dale Brown

I lift my heart toward heaven, I turn my face toward you
I see no reason to look away, I see no reason to flee
There is a season, for believing, the cross, and its power and sacrifice

I lift my hands toward heaven, I turn my eyes toward you
By faith I've found you, by faith I am free, by faith I'm living eternally
There are reasons for believing, the cross, and its power and sacrifice

I lift my voice toward heaven, I turn my praise toward you
By grace I've found you, by grace You'll keep me, by grace I'll live for eternity
Sing hallelujah, praise to the Name, Alpha and Omega, Amen

I lift my heart toward Jesus, the Son of Man, the Son of God
I see no reason to turn away, I see no reason to flee
He is the reason, for believing, the resurrected sacrifice

The Blame Game by Dale Brown

Standing by the river
The scent of flowers in the air
Hand in hand together
No cares or concern at all
Then something came between us
It all began to fall

All that talk between us
Like a whisper in the wind
They say the grass is always greener
Until you're on the other side
You can't blame your mother
When it's our own darn fault

Listen to your father
He's been down this road before
You never miss your water
Until the well runs dry
You can't blame your brother
When it's your own darn fault

They say it's better late than never
Two heads are better than one
Like birds of a feather
Two hearts are best together
And ya can't blame the weather
If ya left your coat in the car

Break

Buy yourself a mirror
And tell me what you see
It's written on the pages
It's a picture of you and me
And we can't blame the devil
When it's our own darn fault

Just Having Fun

Put on your head phones and take it for a test drive (click here) http://youtu.be/N2wl_0la2xw

You're the One by Dale Brown

Here I'm standing in the terminal so far from home
There's thousands of people yet I feel all alone
This helpless feeling all the way to the bone
Looking for some comfort her outside my zone

It's clear now, yes its clear now
You're the one, you're the one

Been to hades and back looking for some kind of peace
Beautiful sunset and sand yet I get no relief
Standing on the mountain I think I've arrived
Yet it slips through my fingers, I take another dive

CHORUS

I thought I knew where I was going til I got to here
They kept telling me it'll work out, no reason to fear
Just lean in to it”, they say, “eventually it'll pay”
But my back is so tired and there's no place to lay

CHORUS

The clock is still ticking there's no time to play
Get back to the manual, the eternal way
Gotta get back in focus, no peripheral view
Learning something from faith, which I got all from you

CHORUS

Just for Fun by Dale Brown

There's all kinds of music, there is all kinds of songs
Songs for your loved ones, for those that you've done wrong
There's one for your sweetheart, when you're out on the road
There's songs for the redneck, and for those that don't belong

There's rap for the rapper, the anarchist too
There's loud obnoxious metal, that you hear on the street
There's the mariachi brass band, with a cool Latino beat
But this one's a no brainer, we are just having fun

Just having fun, Just having fun
So don't get your panties in a big tight wad
We are just having fun...

There's a song for the bimbos, you met back in school
Senseless words without meaning, is what we call pop
Some help you worship, Dios and the Son
But this is just a no brainer, we are just having fun

CHORUS


Don't confuse me by Dale Brown

As a soundboard for the victim, looking for advice
Trying to sort out what I'm hearing, it seems as cold as ice
Emotions cloud the picture, like painting with a real big brush
The devil's in the details, he says “Don't confuse me with the Truth”

Discerning wit and wisdom, search for a clue
There's two sides to every story, I'm advised to keep in mind
The accuser's in a hurry, so I know I can't be rushed
The devil's in the details, he says “Don't confuse me with the Truth”

break

We're headed for big trouble, if you watch the news
But I'm looking for a silver lining, don't need to sing the blues
No apocalyptic chaos, the kind you read in books
The devil's in the details, he says “Don't confuse me with the Truth”

Soldiers of Destiny

Find You a Home by Dale Brown

Love is hard I know, when you find you are all alone
Love is hard I know, when you don’t know where to go
Love is hard I know, when you know you can’t go home
Love is hard I know, when you can’t go home

Life is hard I know, sometimes the load is heavy
Life is hard I know, sometimes the road ain’t steady
Life is hard I know, you need a helping hand, He’s ready
Life is hard I know, He can find you a home

He can find you, find you a home
He can find you, . . .

He can find you
God is love you know, when you find you’re all alone
He can find you
God is love you know, when you don’t know where to go
He can find you
God is love you know, even when you can’t go home
He can find you
God is love you know, He can find you a home
He can find you, He can find you a home




A Song for My Bride by Dale Brown
Here’s a song for my bride
And I sing it with pride
She’s the smile in my day
For better or for worse
From the altar to the hearse
I’d have it no other way

This is a song for my bride
And I sing it with pride
Cause she loves me just as I am

We’re in this together
Through all the stormy weather
I’m sure she’s not like her mum
Until death do us part
Even when I’m a fart
I’d have it no other way

CHORUS

It was love at first sight
Until the first fight
The blossom fell off the rose
But new buds came along
I still sing this song
Cause she loves me just as I am

CHORUS


Xylocaine Brain by Dale Brown
Some say this world is a stage, or maybe its just a maze
Does your puppet master play by the rules?
Are you part of society’s fools
In a world of the blind, the one eyed man is king
It’s time to wake up, wake up your xylocaine brain
Don’t make me a politician, no magic or superstition
Play with fire your likely to get burned
Even a blind man can feel the heat
No macho truck or boom-box, no fig leaves or holy burkas
It’s time to wake up, wake your xylocaine brain
They say you catch more flies with honey
So that barnyard, it’s worth some money
You say you saw it in the news, That’s why you sing the blues
His story guides the future
No fiction or drunken stupor
It’s time to wake up, wake up your xylocaine brain
Don’t think me crass or funny, I’m not in this for the money
No reputation to protect
No defection to defect
It’s time to smell the roses
And, I don’t mean following Moses
It’s time to wake up, wake up your xylocaine brain

Because I loved you byDale Brown http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCJMGWn2P9s&feature=share&list=UUpvpku8O928I6bRiqbGvzeg
Before there were stars in the sky, I loved you
Before there were tracks in the sand, I loved you
When there were no marching bands
And no out stretched hands
I sent my flower cause I loved you
A token of my love, sent from above
Only sacrifice, I paid the full price
Image in my son, can’t be outdone
All because I really loved you

Fall on me by Dale Brown
In the storm, tree of life, you can fall on me
When I’m weak you are strong, you can fall on me
Here we are waiting for your return
Here we are waiting for your return
Have your way, fill me up, you can fall on me
Hear the wind in the storm, you can fall on me
Here we are waiting for your return
Here we are waiting for your return
Mighty King, Lord of Life, you can fall on me
When I’m weak you are strong, you can fall on me

The Soldier by Dale Brown
Here we are in the desert
So far from our home
By the rivers of our beginning
Where we learned to pray
Hands trained for the battle
Arms that bend the bow
My Lord, My Lord
Back at home they are waiting
Longing for my return
Will I come home rejoicing
Or will I come home at all
My Lord, My Lord
Is this fruit of our labor
They say we reap what we sow
How to explain these children
Playing in the road
My Lord, My Lord
By the rivers of our beginning
Where we learned to pray
There are words we can live by
They apply still today
Will we come home rejoicing
Or will we come home at all
My Lord, My Lord,
My Lord, My Lord
Will we come home rejoicing
Or will we come home at all
My Lord!

Before the Throne by Dale Brown

We’ve come to sacrifice
We’ve come to praise your name
We’ve heard reports of your power
We’ve come with open hearts
We glory in your Name
We worship you every hour
Vindicate me Lord
We stand before your Door
Empty handed looking for direction

You always pick me up
I’m weak and tend to fall
But, you are my strength and resurrection
I need your guiding light
We need your power and might
Save me God from destruction
Create in me your heart
In a world that’s falling apart
Yet, held together by your mercy

FINAL SOLUTION by Dale Brown From Zerahemla to the desert, land of salt or oil They’ve got their tunnel vision, that brings the pot to boil His father lives on Kolob, his mother lives on earth The big thing that is missing is the message of rebirth Gone to be with Allah, is the faithful’s only dream Joseph’s lustful vision has been told before That patriarchal Mecca keeps those women in their place While Joseph takes his ladies and populates outer space Final solution, find a solution Fighting for our future, an uncle we call Sam Feed him with our taxes and watch it hit the fan Atonement is a question that can work up quite a sweat If you follow Joe or Ahmed you’ll likely loose the bet Final solution, find a solution Lord of an evil empire he’s not the prince of peace Neither Ahmed or brother Joseph are likely to turn the other cheek Isa’s got it covered if they’d give him half a chance Watch em shield their eyes in darkness and do another dance Final solution, find a solution 
JEZEBEL by Dale Brown 1 Kings 21, 2 Kings 9:22-37 She’s a looker, a teaser Always full of fun With a vision for your future She seems like the one Jezebel, Jezebel   She’s a mover, a shaker She can get things done She can turn on the charm Make the big man run Jezebel, Jezebel She can get you a garden She can pull all the strings No hidden agenda No vultures with wings She’ll act like an angel With makeup and lace She’s got the power To put you in your place Jezebel, Jezebel There’s something you’ll find out Some things you don’t know She has a heart like her daddy A heart made of stone Jezebel, Jezebel The end is not pretty You reap what you sow There’s weeds in the garden To deep to mow Jezebel, Jezebel Now you’ve got your garden So pick up the dice As your heart melts slowly Like a big lump of ice

LIKE A REFINER by Dale Brown

Like a refiner is my Jesus
Like a refiner is my God
Like a refiner is my Jesus
And I’ll walk through the fires of hell to hold His hand

All the accusations of my loved ones
Got me hurting so deep inside
Gonna have to stand firm on my convictions
And I’ll walk through the fires of hell to hold His hand

I might have to leave you for a short time
Haven’t forgotten that you’re my friend
Gonna follow the Master where He’s going
And I’ll walk through the fires of hell to hold His hand

Sing hallelujah to my Jesus
Sing hallelujah to my God
Sing hallelujah to my Jesus
And I’ll walk through the fires of hell to hold His hand
I’ll walk through the fires of hell to hold His hand


NO LOVE SONG by Dale Brown

Everyone knows we’re not famous for love songs
We’d like to sing real pretty and brighten up your day, that’s OK
But there’ll be another day
Cause now is no time, its no time, to look the other way

Don’t be fooled in thinking, when you’re so far away
That nothing home is changing, like everything remains just the same
When you know there are bills to pay
You’re gonna be standing there bewildered, perplexed, surprised and dismayed

We all knew this day was coming, yet it was so far away
Some thought we’d be forever, like we were sent here to stay
And we won’t have a judgment day
So here we are a standing bewildered, surprised and dismayed

Everyone knows we’re not famous for love songs
We’d like to sing real pretty and brighten up your day, that’s OK
There’ll be another day
Cause now is no time, its no time, to look the other way

Lift those hearts that are weary
Lift your voice to the King
Lift your voice to the Savior
Make those angelic bells ring


THE BRANCH by Dale Brown

Arise and shine for your light has come in its glory
Lift up your eyes, around and about and you'll see
They'll gather together, your sons and your daughters around you
Nations and kings to the brightness of your rising

Then you will see, be radiant, and your heart overflowing
Because the abundance of the sea will be turned to you and the wealth of the nations
Your gates will be open, continually, night and day
So that men may bring to you the wealth of the nations

Sing and rejoice in the name of the King that is worthy
He's exalted, magnificent, abundant beyond all our asking
High and lofty, the Branch, the Holy One of Israel
So that men may come to him boldly in their asking

CHORUS
Sing and rejoice in the name of Messiah
Sing and rejoice in the name of Life
Sing and rejoice in the name of Jesus
For He alone is the gift of Life


EURAQUILO by Dale Brown

On my way to go see Caesar, they said I was out of my mind
Sailing with a boat load of prisoners, Julius and all of his crew
Things went well, not bad sailing, glorious for more than a few
Then, the captain, a stubborn bloke, didn’t know what I knew

We were about to get an attitude adjustment
Lose everything but the crew
That Euraquilo, strong northeaster
Lord, she really blew

We had just weighed anchor, were sailing to weather, then it began to build
It wasn’t long we were driven along, not a thing that we could do
Dragging behind a big sea anchor, a drogue for those that knew
In those days there was no other option, not even a screw

You see the Boss, He’d given me orders, yet there was more than I knew
There was one Divine appointment along the way, that we had yet to do
We had to run aground at a place call Malta, a bit of a mystery to me
Things were coming apart and we were dragging a hook, Luke wrote this in the Book

It finally ended on the rocks, we went looking for some trees
A viper bit me on the hand, they thought I’d roll over and die
Power came down from heaven above, saved me from the sting
Who would have known this was part of the plan
This is what I call a God thing


RAVING WOLF by Dale Brown

You’re always looking for a sign, in the sky
And like your fathers before you, you deny the truth
You’ve got your scrolls, religious books and plastic looks
Wearing clothes like a perfect sheep, inside a raving wolf

Don’t you know if you’d die today
The Lord would burn your soul
Can’t you hear me begging you brother
Please won’t you turn around
Turn around, turn around

You’ve given heed to doctrines of a demon, and missed the truth
Forbid to marry, abstain from meat, yeah that’s really neat
Cross your leg and meditate, your neighbor you hate

Don’t you know that you were predicted
A long, long time ago
And you know the Lord still loves you
And doesn’t want to see you go
Can’t you hear me begging you brother
Please won’t you turn around
Turn around, turn around


GET DOWN (Deu. 28:67, Phil. 2:9-11) Dale Brown

You can spend your life a searching, throw your life away
Waiting for the summer, waiting for the day
Wrap yourself around it, feel it slip away
I know what you’re looking for, you’re searching every day

Down on your knees you will fall
Down on your knees with us all

If you feel you’re on the outside and always looking in
If you were on the inside you’d be trying to get out
Confusion seems to be the word that’s running all about
Someone’s telling a story friend, now listen to him shout

CHORUS

He causes some to stumble, the Savior of the world
He’s righteous and He’s Holy, a sacrificial King
All authority has been given to His mighty name
Someone’s telling a story friend, now listen to his claims

CHORUS

BEWARE OF DOGS

Finger Pointer by Dale Brown

You’re always quick to point a finger
Its always, "Your the one not me"
Such a vivid imagination
Just stop and pray for me

I know you really love your brother
Its really plain to see
You know him, oh you know him, oh so well
You’d like to put him over your knee

Why don’t you tell your father
Don’t think he can see
He’s not slack as some people think
He’s righteous and Lord you see

You say he always owes you something
You say, its always gonna be
I’ll put my stock in heaven
Because up there it’ll always be

I’ve got to tell you about this kingdom
Made for you and for me
You don’t have to wait, no don’t wait for me
Its right here on earth you see
Its right here on earth you see


Troubled Brain by Dale Brown

Life is filled with trouble
Life is filled with pain
Life is merely a vapor
Often there’s nothing but rain

There’s times when trouble is a good thing
There’s times when it’s good for your brain

You gotta put your trust in your maker
Cast your cares on the sea
Get out and walk on the water
Get out and walk on the sea

Chorus

So praise the Lord in your troubles
Praise the Lord in your pain
Double mindness is nothing but folly
But with faith there’s nothing but gain


I Believe by Dale Brown

I believe
I believe in the Father
I believe in the Son
I believe in the Holy
I believe

I’ve been washed in the water
I’ve been washed in the blood
I believe in His mercy
I believe


Baruch Ha Shem by Dale Brown
Baruch ha Shem, Lord Adonai
Baruch ha Shem, Lord Jehovah
Jesus is my Savior
Only begotten Son
With power to deliver
Cause there ain’t no other one.

Baruch ha Shem, Hallelujah
" "
Sing it loud, Hallelujah
Blessed be the Name
Exalt the name Jesus
Cause there ain’t no other name

Baruch ha Shem, Lord Adonai
Baruch ha Shem, Lord Jehovah
Jesus is my Savior
Only begotten Son
Won’t you now consider
Cause there ain’t no other one.
Baruch ha Shem, Hallelujah


There You Are by Dale Brown

There you are sitting in the back row
Fear gripping your heart
You’d like to run as I’m talking to you
You don’t know why you feel the way you do

Well, I know what you’re going through
Because I’ve been there too
I know what you’re going through
Because I’ve been there too


Don’t you know that Jesus really loves you
Yes He loves you just the way you are
Its been so long, He’s standing here waiting
Take the step and open up the door

chorus

There you are open the door
" "


The Voice by Dale Brown

Got this feeling something’s changing
Got this feeling of something new
Gotta get a handle on my emotions
Gotta get out of these perpetual blues

Seems there’s a voice
Yet, there’s a choice in following you
Seems there’s a voice
Yes, there’s a choice in following you


So many voices hiding in the wind
Confusion beckoning to us all
Armed and ready for the future
Some look for solace in the shopping mall

CHORUS

Standing on the edge and looking down
That great abyss is calling
Don’t fooled by deception
While there’s still hope in the resurrection

CHORUS

The fool in his heart says, "There is no God"
"It’s only something to imagine"
"All truth is relative, and I’ve got mine"
Oh...the story of a fool
Yet there’s a voice
An important choice in following you
Yes there’s a voice
An important choice in following you

Stories of Galilee by Dale Brown

Well I’ve heard all the stories of Galilee
You told them to tell no man
And you knew all along they would
And give your praise

You talked to Paul on the road to Damascus
Said heah Paul this ain’t no game
And you knew all along that he was
A chosen man
Lord I love you
" "

Think of all the times that you watched over me
Lord just look where I’ve been
But you knew all along
That you’d have victory
CHORUS


When I Do It On My Own by Dale Brown
He knows I love Him even though I fail
He’s right beside me, he’ll never tell
Of times of loosing this spiritual fight
When I do it on my own

I’ve got to praise him for all He’s done
For what He’s doing in everyone
He’s got the future in the palm of His hand
Even when I do it on my own

He’s the dayspring and the Morning Star
The Chief Shepherd and Lord of all
The Root of David, Sweet Counselor
He’s the Holy Lamb of God

He’s Messiah, Prince of Peace
He’s the Bishop of all our souls
He is Jesus, Chief Cornerstone
He’s the Holy Son of God


Nebuchadnezzar’s Blues by Dale Brown

Praise that Holy Watcher of my soul
He’s so precious and He made me whole
Praise that Holy Watcher of my soul
I praise His name for ever more

There was time when I was oh so proud
I was a king of kingdom of my own
I used to drink and party all night long
And think about all that I’d done
Then I had a dream, it scared me so
These visions swirling through my head

CHORUS

I saw this mighty tree in the midst of the earth
It grew so big and had fruit so good
Then this Holy Watcher said, "cut it down"
Lord what should it make of this
I called my men who had wisdom from the stars
But none of them knew just what to do
They said, "get Daniel, he’s a man of God
He knows that Holy Watcher that you saw

CHORUS

Daniel said "mighty king I hate to tell you what I see
I think you’ve had it, glory be
You see you’ve lost your kingdom and not because of me
Praise that Holy Watcher in your dreams"
Well I fell down on my knees ate grass like the fool that I was
My nails grew long I lost my mind
That Holy Watcher really got to me

CHORUS


Mahound Dog by Dale Brown http://www.muhammadtube.com/videos/2923/the-death-of-allah

Let me tell you a story, Aisha’s mama said
You may have heard this somewhere before, child don’t forget to cover your head
The key to your salvation is in that big black box,
It fell all the way from heaven, might sound like a paradox
Now if you don’t learn some submission you’ll end up dead

Some satanic verse, those surahs in the book
He’s got his jihadis to guide the way, just like Ibrahim they say
There’s rewards way up in heaven, that’s what the prophet said
Just blow yourself to kingdom come, wine and babes will fill your cup
Now if you don’t learn some submission you’ll end up dead

That crescent they say is holy, image of the moon
Jews, they say, are monkeys, now listen to this tune
The key to your salvation, its in the holy writ
This would all be really funny if it was in a comic strip
But don’t be laughing you’re liable to end up dead

He can’t control his people, there’s all this genocide
One big happy family, taken for a ride
They call for foreign soldiers to solve a domestic beef
Then complain about those sinners standing in the street
Don’t be laughing Mahound Dog, Allah’s dead

The Watchman by Dale Brown
If a trumpet blows in the city
Won’t the people raise their heads
If I’m standing on the mountain
Their still scoffing and wagging their heads
I send my servants and mighty power
Yet your hearts still resist
" "

I hold my hands out, I’m gently knocking
And I love you just the same
A roaring lion is a coming
After me don’t you know
Is it Jesus or Barabus
Choose this day who you’ll serve
Yes I’m standing on mount Zion
I’m just waiting for your return
