TFT: Jackie Wilson


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 while others will be quite obviously fervent 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.


Lonely Teardrops
Jackie Wilson
My heart is cryin'
Cryin'
Lonely teardrops
My pillows never dry of
Lonely teardrops
Come
Home
Come
Home
Just say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Hey
Hey
Say you will

My heart is cryin’
Cryin’
Lonely teardrops
My pillows never dry of
Lonely teardrops
Come
Home
Come
Home
Just say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Hey
Hey
Say you will

Just give me
Another chance
For our romance
Come on and tell me
That one day you'll return
‘Cause
Every day
That you've been gone away
You'll Know why my heart
Does nothing but burn
Cryin’

Lonely teardrops
My pillows never dry of
Lonely teardrops
Come
Home
Come
Home
Just say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Hey
Hey
Say you will
Say it right now baby
Say you will
Come on
Come on
Say you will
Say It darling
Yeah
Say you will


Higher and Higher
Jackie Wilson
Your love
Liftin’ me higher
Than I've ever
Been lifted before
So keep it up
Quench my desire
And I'll be at your side
Forevermore

You know
Your love
Your love keeps liftin’ me
Keep on liftin’
Love keeps liftin’ me
Higher
Liftin’ me
Higher and higher
Higher
I said
Your love
Your love keeps liftin’ me
Keep on
Love keeps liftin’ me
Liftin’ me
Liftin’ me
Higher and higher
Higher

Now once
I was downhearted
Disappointment
Was my closest friend
But then you
Came and it soon departed
And you know he never
Showed his face again

That’s why
Your love
Your love keeps liftin’ me
Keep on liftin’ me
Love keeps liftin’ me
Higher
Lifting me
Higher and higher
Higher
I said
Your love
Your love keeps liftin’ me
Keep on
Love keeps liftin’ me
Liftin’ me
Liftin’ me
Higher and higher
Higher

I'm so glad
I've finally found you
Yes that one
In a million girls
And I whip
My loving arms around you
Honey
I can stand up
And face the world

Let me tell you
Your love
Your love keeps liftin’ me
Keep on liftin’
Love keeps liftin’ me
Higher
Liftin’ me
Higher and higher
Higher
I said
Your love
Your love keeps liftin’ me
Keep on
Love keeps liftin’ me
Liftin’ me
Liftin’ me
Higher and higher
Higher
