  • 1. Vision for a New Way

    Ingemar Olsson

    Life is a journey we all have to make
    But you can travel many ways
    Now you can live in fear each step you take
    Just like you’re lost within a maze

    Vision for a new way
    One and only true way
    One for me and you way
    Vision for a new way
    Jesus talked about it
    Jesus walked about it
    Have you thought about it
    Vision for a new way

    Some people say we’re on a dead end street
    Though trying to win we’re bound to lose
    Let’s pass it on to everyone we meet
    That there’s a better way to choose

    Vision for a new way …

    Now sometimes hate is all there seems to be
    And so the world seems in a mess
    Only the love of God shows you and me
    A way through all that wilderness

    Vision for a new way …

  • 2. Nowhere Bound

    Lyrics: Ingemar Olsson, Music: Ingemar Olsson / Ulf Widding

    Seven fifteen when I wake up
    And get out of my bed
    I’m feeling so tired I wish I were
    Still asleep instead
    I drink my coffee black and strong
    I run to the car and life goes on
    The same old wheel spinning round
    You sometimes feel nowhere bound

    Going downtown, my office there
    My desk and my telephone
    Will this be my life till I retire
    The only life I’ve known
    Half past five day is done
    Back in the car and life goes on
    The same old wheel spinning round
    You sometimes feel nowhere bound

    Is there a purpose of my life
    I think there is
    There must be more to life than this

    I go for a walk and see my friends
    Who spend their days like me
    Meaningless talk that never ends
    Watch cable TV
    Five days ant work and weekends free
    Is this what living is meant to be
    The same old wheel spinning round
    You sometimes feel nowhere bound
    There must be more to life than this

  • 3. One Life to Live

    Ingemar Olsson

    You may do the things you’d like to do
    Go to places where you’d like to go
    And get to know those that you’d like to get to know
    But don’t you forget what you give’s what you’ll get
    You’re going to reap just what you sow

    You’ve only got one life to live
    You’ve only got one heart to give
    So give it another thought my friend
    It might just never end

    Only cats are getting eight more tries
    They may pass the time and play with mice
    But you and I my friend aren’t even living twice
    So give it a thought, the life that you’ve got
    It might be kind of wise

    You’ve only got one life to live …

    Even if you do the best you can
    You’re bound to be mistaken now and then
    But what you’ve based your life upon, and this is it
    It’s got to be true whatever you do
    And never change a bit

    You’ve only got one life to live …

  • 4. God Is Light

    Ingemar Olsson

    Clouds may cover the sky
    And hide the sunshine away
    But though at times it is hard to see
    The sun is there anyway

    The light that shines in the darkness
    Will never weaken at all
    It brightens up every step you’re taking
    So you won’t stumble and fall

    God is light
    And in God there is no darkness
    God is light

    The light reveals every secret
    This might sound frightening to some
    Who prefer to remain in darkness
    Rather that letting truth come

    But if we walk in the light
    Our fellowship will increase
    We’ll see ourselves and each other brighter
    And every coldness must cease

    God is light …

  • 5. No Matter What

    Ingemar Olsson

    There may be people thinking that it’s hard enough
    To believe in love when life itself is so rough
    But if you take your time to really look around
    In spite of everything, I know that love can be found

    No matter what
    It’s there no matter what
    No matter what
    It’s there no matter what

    When you have found the love that only God can give
    You have found the source of life and reason to live
    If others disapprove or really don’t see how
    Doesn’t change a thing, cause Jesus lives anyhow

    No matter what
    He lives no matter what
    No matter what
    He lives no matter what

    If you’re a doubting person, not at all naive
    Or think that God exists for only those who believe
    There is no reason worrying or feeling tense
    Cause it’s not at all on you or me it depends

    No matter what
    He lives no matter what
    No matter what
    He lives no matter what

  • 6. When We Get Together

    Ingemar Olsson

    When we get together
    Together in the Lord
    Everything that happens
    Is with one accord

    Yes we all have a good time
    All have a good time When we
    Get together in the Lord

    Everybody present
    Has something to share
    Someone has a message
    Someone leads in prayer
    Yes we all have a good time …

    Someone shares a vision
    Someone prophesies
    Someone else with wisdom
    Teaches something wise
    Yes we all have a good time …

    Someone playes the guitar
    Someone sings a song
    Someone is translating
    When someone speaks in tongues
    Yes we all have a good time …

    When we get together
    Together in the Lord
    Everything that happens
    Is with one accord
    Yes we all have a good time …

    Yes we all have a good time
    All have a good time When we
    Get together, get together
    Get together in the Lord

  • 7. Incredible

    Ingemar Olsson

    I’m telling you this I have told you before
    But I want to tell you some more
    And I hope that you hear what I say,
    because I’m sincere
    I hope that I can make it clear
    Cause I want you to share with me
    The most wonderful thing that I know

    I read in this book, and I had do react
    Cause it said in the book as a matter of fact
    That the God who created the land and the sea
    He is both mother and father to me
    Aware of me the way I am
    It’s more than I understand

    //: It’s incredible, inconceivable
    But it’s wonderful to believe ://

    I kept reading on and before I was through
    I looked at myself from a new point of view
    I’m not living by chance like a leaf in the wind
    God’s got a plan that I’m in
    It blew my mind
    to seek and find
    To God I am one of a kind

  • 8. You are My Life

    Ingemar Olsson

    I have dreamed of a secret someone
    deep inside of me
    Now I gradually see that dream
    turn into reality
    You are my life, that’s what you mean to me
    You are my life

    Without you all I do is end up
    never knowing where to begin
    Just like trying to catch a sunbeam
    or striving after the wind
    You are my life, just like it ought to be
    You are my life

    By now I know it’s for certain
    My dream was true
    My life is more than existing
    Life is really you

    I can see what my life would lead to
    if I had to live on my own
    I can tell by the way I need you
    that I would never make it alone
    You are my life
    You are my life

  • 9. God Gives You a Love Song

    Ingemar Olsson

    God gives you a love song
    When you give yourself to him
    God gives you a love song
    Resounding deep down within
    Made in His image it’s easy to see
    That living with Him is where you’re meant to be
    God gives you a love song
    Believe me, it comes naturally

    God gives you a love song
    When you start praising His name
    Then you’ll hear this love song
    And living is no more the same
    Freedom and beauty and love’s harmony
    These things, without Him, just could not be
    God gives you a love song
    Believe me, it comes naturally

  • 10. Home

    Ingemar Olsson

    I have been to many places
    I have seen the sun
    Shine through many faces
    But still the same sun

    Going on a long long journey
    Looking for a home
    A place where I could live
    A place where I belong

    Coming back from a long long journey
    With a brand new song
    Now I’ve found the place where I belong
    Coming back from a long long journey
    No I can’t be wrong
    Cause my home is where the sun is
    That’s where I belong

    Now I know that home is more than
    Just a place to stay
    Home is always near by
    It’s never ever far away

    And this is what I carry with me
    Everywhere I go
    That home is never good-bye
    It’s a constant hello

    Coming back from a long long journey
    With a brand new song
    Now I’ve found the place where I belong
    Coming back from a long long journey
    No I can’t be wrong
    //: Cause my home is where the sun is
    That’s where I belong ://
    Yes, my home is where the Son of God is
    That’s where I belong
