The Preachers Wife Soundtrack Lyrics






I Believe In You And Me
by Whitney Houston

I believe in you and me
I believe that we will be
In love eternally
As far as I can see
You will always be
The one for me
Oh yes you will

I believe in dreams again
I believe that love will never end
And like the river finds the sea
I was lost now I'm free
I believe in you and me

I will never leave your side
I will never hurt your pride
When all the chips are down
I will always be around
Just to be right there where you are my love
Oh I love you boy

I will never leave you out
I will always let you in
To places no one's ever been
Deep inside can't you see
I believe in you and me

Maybe I'm a fool
To feel the way I do
But I would play the fool forever
Just to be with you forever

I believe in miracles
Love's a miracle
And baby you're a dream come true
I was lost now I'm free
I believe in you and me
I was lost now I'm free girl
I believe in you and me

Step By Step
by Whitney Houston

Well, there's a bridge
And there's a river
That I still must cross
As I'm going on my journey
Oh, I might be lost

And there's a road I have to follow
A place I have to go
Well, no one told me just how to get there
But when I get there I'll know
'Cause I'm taking it

Step by step
Bit by bit
Stone by stone (yeah)
Brick by brick (oh yeah)
Step by step
Day by day
Mile by mile (ooh, ooh, ooh)

And this old road is rough and ruined
So many dangers along the way
So many burdens might fall upon me
So many troubles that I have to face

Oh, but I won't let my spirit fail me
Oh, I won't let my spirit go
Until I get to my destination
I'm gonna take it slow
Because I'm making it mine

Step by step (you know I'm taking it)
Bit by bit (bit by bit, come move)
Stone by stone (yeah)
Brick by brick (brick by brick by brick by brick, mmm)
Step by step (step by step, I'm gonna)
Day by day (day by day)
Mile by mile (ooh), go your way, go your way

Say it, baby, don't give up
You've got to hold on to what you got
Oh, baby, don't give up
You've got to keep on moving on, don't stop (yeah, yeah)
I know you're hurting (I know you're hurting)
And I know you're blue (I know you're blue)
I know you're hurting (I know you're hurting)
But don't let the bad things get to you

I'm taking it step by step (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Bit by bit (bit by bit, come move)
Stone by stone (stone by stone, yeah)
Brick by brick (brick by brick by brick by brick)
Step by step (I'm gonna take it now)
Day by day (day by day)
Mile by mile (ooh), go your own way, go your own way

(Come on, baby, got to keep moving)
(Come on, baby, got to keep moving)
(I'm taking it step by step) Bit by bit
(Come on, baby, got to keep moving)

Step by step keep on moving, day by day (day by day-ee)

Joy

Joy, joy, God's great joy
Joy, joy, down in my soul
Sweet, beautiful, soul saving joy
Oh, joy, joy in my soul

Joy, joy, God's great joy
Joy, joy, down in my soul
Oh, sweet, beautiful, soul saving joy
Oh, joy, joy in my soul

Early in the morning, before the break of day
I asked the Lord to make me whole
He holds me and the Lord keeps me
Oh, joy, joy in my soul

Listen, when I get weak and I can't go on
Thank you, Jesus, I feel all my hope, all my joy is gone
Late in the midnight hour I talk to my God
And He gives me joy, joy in my soul, thank you Jesus

(One of these all mornings), one of these all mornings it won't be very long
You just might look for me, but I'm going on home
(Listen, listen) I'm going up to glory (oh yes, I am) where I'm gonna sing and shout
Oh joy, (oh joy) joy in my soul

Can y'all help me sing joy
(Joy, joy) God's great joy
Sing it like you mean it
(Joy, joy) down in my soul (down in my soul)
It is sweet, beautiful, soul saving joy
(Oh, joy) joy in my soul
(Oh joy) joy in my soul

(Oh, joy) joy, in my soul
(Oh, joy)
Oh, joy (oh, joy)
Oh, joy (oh, joy)
Oh, joy (oh, joy)
Do you know what I call Him? Listen!
The Master's joy (the Master's joy)
My Master, my Master's joy, yeah, yeah, yeah , yeah
Listen, my Savior's joy (my Savior's joy)
Yes, He is, you know what else He is?
The lily of the valley (the lily of the valley, joy)
Thank you, Jesus, listen, Alpha and Omega, joy (Alpha and Omega, joy)
Listen, in the midnight hour (in the midnight hour, joy)
You know He does, He gives me strength and power (He gives me strength and power, joy)
Listen what I like, listen, no food on the table (no food on the table, joy)
Thank You, Jesus, I know that He is able (I know that He is able, joy)
And you know I can't find the word to say, you what I say, hey hey hey (hey hey hey, joy)
Hey hey hey, joy
Oh, joy (oh, joy)
(Hey, joy)
Do you have that joy? Do you have that joy?
The Master's joy (the Master's joy)
My Savior's joy (my Savior's joy)
The lily of the valley (the lily of the valley, joy)
Can I get a witness? Can I get a witness?
Can I have some joy? Oh, joy, (oh joy) joy in my soul

I Go To The Rock
by Whitney Houston

Where do I go when there's nobody else to turn to?
Who do I talk to when nobody wants to listen?
Who do I lean on when there's no foundation stable?

I go to the rock
I know he's able
I go to the rock

I go to the rock for my salvation
I go to the stone that the builders rejected
I run to the mountain and the mountain stands by me

When the Earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to the rock

Where do I go, where do I go
When the storms of life are threatening?
Who do I turn to when those winds of sorrow blow?
And is there a refuge in the time of tribulation?

I go to the rock
I know He's able
I go to the rock

I know He's the rock for my salvation
I know He's the stone that the builders rejected
I run to the mountain and the mountain stands by me

When the Earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to the rock

I know He's the rock for my salvation
I know He's the stone that the builders rejected
I run to the mountain and the mountain stands by me

When the Earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to the rock

I go to the rock
I go to the rock
I go to the rock
I go to the rock

You can go to the rock
You can go to the rock
You can go to the rock
You can go to the rock

I go to the rock
I go to the rock
I go to the rock
I go to the rock

I go to the rock
I go to the rock
I go to the rock
I go to the rock

When the Earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to the rock

I Love The Lord
by Whitney Houston

Yes, I miss you
Whitney Houston

I love the, the Lord
He heard my cry
And pitied every groan
Long as I, I live
And troubles rise
I hasten to

Oh, I love the Lord (I love the Lord)
I sure do, surely do love the Lord
He heard, he heard my cry (he heard my cry)
And pitied every groan, yes he did (and pitied every groan)
Every, every groan
Long as I live, long as I, I live (long as I live)
And troubles rise, troubles rise (and troubles rise)

(To, to, to, to) one of my
(To, to, to, to) one of my favorite things
(To, to, to, to)
(To, to, to, to) one of my favorite things
Was when Whitney would call me or I would call Whitney
She would simply sing her "Hello"

"Hello, Bebe, my brother"
And I would just simply return
"Hello, Whitney, my sister"
"Hello, Bebe, my brother"
And I would just simply return
"Hello, Whitney, my sister"
And so I, I, I miss those phone calls
No matter what we talked about
The fact that we sung it to each other is what I miss the most
Yes, I miss you, Whitney Houston

Somebody Bigger Than You And I
by Whitney Houston

Somebody bigger than the Earth is round
Bigger than the saddest frown
Bigger than the brightest smile
And longer than the longest mile

Somebody bigger than the biggest fight
And darker than the darkest night
Bigger than the biggest gun
Cause he's the only shining sun cmon

Who made the mountains
Who made the trees
Who made the rivers that flow out to the seas
And who hung the moon in the starry, starry, starry sky

[Chorus:]
Somebody bigger
I know I know he's bigger than you and I
My God is bigger
Somebody bigger
He's bigger, he's bigger than you
He's bigger than you
My God is, my God is oh

Now who made the flowers bloom in the spring, yeah
And who writes the songs for the robins to sing uh
And who sends the rain when the Earth is dry
I know, I know, I know
Somebody bigger yeah
Than you and I
Somebody bigger than you and I
Bigger than you and I

He lights the way when road is alone
Keeps me company with love to guide you
He walks beside you just like he walks with me

When I am weary, and filled with despair
Who gives me courage to go on and on and on from there
And who gives me faith
I will never, never, never, never, never doubt
Somebody bigger yeah
Somebody bigger than me and you
Bigger than you and I
Somebody bigger
My Lord is bigger than you
Bigger than you and I

He lights the way when the road is long
Keeps you company with love to guide you
He walks beside you just like he walks with me

Somebody bigger than you and I
Bigger than the open sky
Bigger than the tallest tree
Bigger than the deepest sea
Somebody deeper than the desert sands
Bigger than the tallest man
And phatter than the phattest phat
Bigger than the Shaq attack

You Were Loved
by Whitney Houston

We all wanna make a place in this world
We all want our voices to be heard
Every one wants a chance to be someone
We all have dreams we need to dream
Sweeter than any star you can reach
Cuz when you reach and find, you've found someone
You'll hold this world's most priceless thing
The greatest gift this life can bring
Is when you look back and know
You were loved

[Chorus:]
You were loved by someone
Touched by someone
Held by someone
Meant something to someone
Loved somebody
Touched somebody's heart
Along the way
You can look back and say (mm)
You were loved (yes you were)

You can have diamonds in your hands
Have all the riches in the land
But, without love,
You don't really have a thing, no no
When somebody cares that you're alive
When somebody trusts you with their life
That's when you'll know (huh)
That you have all you need
You'll hold this world's most priceless gift
The finest treasure that there is
You can look back and know
You were loved

[Chorus:]
You were loved by someone
Touched by someone
Held by someone
Meant something to someone
Loved somebody
Touched somebody's heart
Along the way
You can look back and say (mm)
Yes, You were loved (yes you were now)

[Bridge:]
So many roads that you can take
Whatever way you go
Don't take that road alone
It's better you should know

[Chorus:]
You were loved by someone
Touched by someone
Held by someone
Meant something to someone
Loved somebody
Touched somebody's heart
Along the way
You can look back and say (mm)
You did okay
You were loved

So remember to tell that special one (yeah, mm)
You were loved
You were loved
You were loved
You were loved
Hey hey hey hey hey

My Heart Is Calling
by Whitney Houston

Who would've thought of it
That I might feel like this
Some kind of wonderful
There's nothing quite comparable

The thing about it is
It's oh so innocent
I wasn't looking for
It came knockin' at my door

I'm trying to do things right
But I'm about to lose this fight
'Cause spending time with you
Well, it feels so good and that's the truth

And every day with you
I swear it brings me closer
to my only reservationis you
My sweet temptation, baby.

Oh, my heart is calling
I'm falling for you
Oh, my heart is calling
I'm falling for you

Who could imagine it
I found my happiness
In someone I barely know
And I like to take it slow

But you're so diferent, boy
You're breaking all my rules
What is it in your smile
that makes me feel the way I do

I'm trying to live my life
And I'm trying to live it right
If I desire you
It ain't because I'm trying to

Boy, everyday with you
I swear it brings me closer to
My only reservation is you,
My sweet temptation, baby

[chorus]

I've given it consideration (uh huh)
And it all adds up to you
I won't deny this heart is calling for you, baby
I've given it alot of thought (uh huh)
And it all ends up on you
My sweet temptation
God knows I'm falling for you

[chorus]

Is is in your smile, boy
Is it touch, baby
I don't know why ...

Who Would Imagine A King
by Whitney Houston

Mommies and daddies always believe
That their little angels are special indeed
And you could grow up to be anything
But who would imagine a king

A shepherd or teacher is what you could be
Or maybe a fisherman out on the sea
Or maybe a carpenter building things
But who would imagine a king

It was so clear when the wise men arrived
And the angels were singing your name
That the world would be different 'cause you were alive
That's what heaven stood still to proclaim

One day an angel said quietly
That soon he would bring something special to me
And of all those wonderful gifts he could bring

Who would imagine, who could imagine
Who would imagine a king

Mmm
Mommy
