TFT: Bob Seger


Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world.  For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously ferverent rants of rebellion.  Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.


Still The Same
Bob Seger
You always won
Every time you placed a bet
You're still damn good
No one's gotten to you yet
Every time
They were sure they had you caught
You were quicker than they thought
You'd just turn your back and walk
You always said
The cards would never do you wrong
The trick you said
Was never play the game too long
A gambler's share
The only risk that you would take
The only loss you could forsake
The only bluff you couldn't fake

And you're still the same
I caught up with you yesterday
Still the same
Still the same
Moving game to game
No one standing in your way
Turning on the charm
Long enough to get you by
Still the same
Still the same
You're still the same
You still aim high

Still the same
Still the same

Still the same
Still the same

There you stood
Everybody watched you play
I just turned and walked away
I had nothing left to say

'Cause you're still the same
Still the same
Everything is still the same
You're still the same
Still the same
Everything is still the same
Moving game to game
Still the same
Everything is still the same
Some things never change
Still the same
Everything is still the same
Oh you're still the same
Still the same
Everything is still the same
Still the same
Still the same
Everything is still the same


Like A Rock
Bob Seger
Stood there boldly
Sweatin' in the sun
Felt like a million
Felt like number one
The height of summer
I'd never felt that strong
Like a rock

I was eighteen
Didn't have a care
Workin’ for peanuts
Not a dime to spare
But I was lean and
Solid everywhere
Like a rock

My hands were steady
My eyes were clear and bright
My walk had purpose
My steps were quick and light
And I held firmly
To what I felt was right
Like a rock

Like a rock
I was strong as I could be
Like a rock
Nothin' ever got to me
Like a rock
I was somethin’ to see
Like a rock

And I stood arrow straight
Unencumbered by the weight
Of all these hustlers and their schemes
I stood proud
I stood tall
High above it all
I still believed in my dreams

Twenty years now
Where'd they go
Twenty years
I don't know
I sit and I wonder sometimes
Where they've gone
And sometimes late at night
Oh when I'm bathed in the firelight
The moon comes callin' a ghostly white
And I recall
I recall

Like a rock
Standin' arrow straight
Like a rock
Chargin' from the gate
Like a rock
Carryin' the weight
Like a rock
Oh like a rock
The sun upon my skin
Like a rock
Hard against the wind
Like a rock
I see myself again
Like a rock
Oh like a rock

Oh oh
