"Nothin’ But The Blues Without You"
“Nothin’ But The Blues Without You”
Verse One:
Oh what can I tell You
About the way it is?
Oh what can I tell You
Of Love that’s hit and miss?
Oh what can I say here
But to lay it on the line?
Love doesn’t stand a chance
To last the test of time…cause
Nothing seems to work!
And love always hurts!
And it always seems to slip on through
There’s been nothin’ but the blues
Without You.
Verse Two:
Oh how can I reach You?
How can I explain?
How can I say this
To try and make it plain?
Nobody has ever
Loved me like you do
Nobody has taken me
To the places that You do…Yeah!
Nothing seems to work!
And love always hurts!
And it always seems to slip on through
There’s been nothin’ but the blues
Without You.
Bridge:
Until you
My hope had all but died
Until you
There were no more tears to cry
Dry as a bone, dying a little each day
But the night began to fade
When you called my name
You called my name!
Instrumental Break…
Verse Three:
And so here I am Lord
Listening for Your Voice
I watch & I wait to learn
How to make the clear choices
My hope is in You
To get me through
This valley of tears Lord
And protect my soul as You do…
Cause nothin’ seems to work!
And love always hurts!
As it always seems to slip on through…
There’s been nothin’ but the blues
Without You…
Cause nothin’ seems to work!
And Love always hurts!
As it always seems to slip on through…
There’s been nothin’ but the blues
Tears & heartache too
There’s been nothin’ but the blues
Without You…
There’s been nothin’ but the blues
Without you…
There’s been nothin’ but the blues
Without you…

“For Every Tear I Cry”
Verse One:
Lord, get me over
Get me over
Get me through the night

I got nowhere to land
I’m a wonderin’; just wonderin’
How I got here again…but…

A way for me to fly…
You got a place for me
A Holy Vase for me
For every tear I cry…
Verse Two:
Lord get me over
Get me over
Get me through these times
Ya!

Though I seem quiet
Struck to silence
My soul, it still cries out!

Where You are I am Home!
Ya!

"Just Can‘t Keep From Cryin’ Sometimes"
“Lord, I Just Can’t Keep From Cryin’ Sometimes”
Verse One:

When my hearts’ filled with sorrow
And my eyes are filled with tears
Lord, I just can’t keep from cryin’ sometimes

Grandma she’s in Glory
Thank God I’m on my way yeah

Chorus:
Well, I just can’t keep from cryin’ sometimes
When my hearts’ filled with sorrow
And my eyes are filled with tears
Lord, I just can’t keep from cryin’ sometimes
Verse Three:
I thought when my baby left me
I’d pray for a little while
Soon it would all be over
And we’d journey on with a smile
I’ve never lost my hope
I think about what’s been told
Yet I just can’t keep from cryin’ sometimes
Chorus:
Well, I just can’t keep from cryin’ sometimes
When my hearts’ filled with sorrow
And my eyes are filled with tears

Sometimes….

So many changes comin’ so fast
I thought that we could make our love last

You can bet that we were both on the run
Chorus:
On the run…
At the first sign of trouble to come
On the run…
What do we do and then call it love?

Then so many reasons to slow back down
So many tears when the past repeats
Too many fears makes the heart retreat.

On the run…

On the run…
What do we do and then call it love?
Bridge:
Each time it gets a little harder
Each time it hurts a little more

I put myself through all this for
Each time it cuts a little deeper
Each time it takes me by surprise
I got to learn to use the mirror of love in your eyes…

On the run…
To you
Teach me to love….

"People Get Ready"
“People Get Ready”
People get ready, there’s a train a comin’
You don’t need no baggage; you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin’
You don’t need no ticket; you just thank the Lord
People get ready for the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers from coast to coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board them
There’s room for all, among those loved the most.
Instrumental break…
There ain’t no room for the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own
Have pity on those, you know, whose chances grow thinner
Cause there’s no hiding place from the Kingdom’s throne
People get ready, there’s a train a comin’
You don’t need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin’
You don’t need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
Instrumental break…
People get ready, for the trains’ a comin’

Don’t need no ticket
You just thank
The Lord…

When you wake each morning,
Remember Me
Take Me with you,
Wherever you go
When Love is the reason,
For all you do

Let my Spirit cleanse your mind
Remember me,
I will be back for you in time

When you reap each harvest,
Think of Me
And shine like a beacon,
Cast your light across the seas

I am with you for all time
Remember Me,

Track 1 – “Nothin’ But The Blues Without You”: Says Ann, “This entire CD represents “Blues to Cruise” in many styles, yet with one inspirational message: Delta Blues, Blues/Rock, Gospel Blues, Bayou Blues, Country/Blues & originals…all about the sometimes winding path to peace. However, this song kind of sums it all up in that without the Spirit of God at the helm of our consciousness, we cannot know the fullness of peace and wisdom which can bring not only “Life,” but “Life Abundantly. Watch Video,”Nothin’ But the Blues Without You” celebrating bikers on a mission
Songwriter: Ann M. Wolf – Music & Words – C 2013 – BMI – All Rights Reserved.
Track 2 – “For Every Tear I Cry”: Says Ann, “Broken & spilled out”…can describe the state of many of us, who have known dark nights of the soul. Yet, for each tear we cry, there can enter that touch of mercy or the strength of Grace; and as our experiences begin to translate into compassion for others, we come to know that “Holy Vase” that brings rest for our souls and a home for our heart, even in the midst of chaos…” Watch Video,”True Heroes” – Celebrating those who protect and serve.

Track 3 – “I Feel a Song Comin’ On”: Says Ann, “Throughout my life I have experienced the transforming power of music. For instance, in a moment of despair, an idea for a song might suddenly come into mind and as I would pour out my soul into the new piece, I would often begin to experience the start of healing. For me, being able to transition from agony to peace was often through the creation of new artistic works; but for others, it can appear via a love of nature, or art, or perhaps a feeling arising from an unexpected conversation with someone special who seems to appear at the right moment. But however it happens… somehow that mercy comes; and for those moments in my life, I give thanks, especially in how I have been able to not only survive difficult times, but live to share the joy of grace with other souls. I pray that mercy and kindness reaches all souls who are enduring their nights, as they reach for mercy and find grace.” Watch Video, one man’s story of PTSD, “Our Turn, Our Time” (to the soundtrack)
“Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” – Hebrews 5:16 (KJV)

Track 4 – “Lord, I Just Can’t Keep From Cryin’ Sometimes”: Says Ann, “This song is dedicated to all who have suffered sorrow & loss, but especially to those have become injured in defense of Liberty or who have stood in harms’ way so that others might live. May you all be comforted and blessed ten fold, for what you have sacrificed, for the sake of Life, Liberty & Freedom.” Watch Video, “Just Can’t Keep From Cryin’ Sometimes”
Songwriter: This Gospel/Blues song is written by Blind Willie Johnson and is in the public domain.
Track 5 – “Lord, Don’t Move The Mountain”: Says Ann, “I have learned to pause in the face of difficulties before rendering judgement as to whether a situation is “good or bad”; because in the midst of deep challenges or even persecution, God could be at work through those very conditions, to bring healing to someone through us, or to strengthen our souls in the process of working through a given experience. We know that the “fiery darts” will come, because that is the nature of the world; but we also know that “Grace is sufficient”…if we can learn to hold to Grace through it all.”
Songwriter: Composed by Mahalia Jackson & Inez Andrews & Doris Akers
Track 6 – “On The Run”: Says Ann, “As the title of this whole CD suggests, there really is “nothing but blues” without God in the midst of our relationships. Stability is hard to find these days; but our hope is in learning to walk in Mercy as we hold to Grace, which gives us the wisdom and strength to endure unto the time when we can celebrate our growth together.” Watch Video,”Dirty Patches & Faded Tattoos” to the music of “On The Run”

Track 7 – “People Get Ready”: Says Ann, “This is a classic favorite among contemporary Gospel Blues songs.”
Songwriter: By Curtis Mayfield of The Impressions
Track 8 – “Sunday Feelin’ All Week Long“: Says Ann, “Jesus described “The Church” as being built within those within the Body of Christ, who walk by His Leading (Mercy & Grace); so the purpose of our “gathering together” (such as going to church,) ideally is to encourage one another in the development of “The Church” within each of us. This would not just be pertaining to the moments we gather, but in order to inspire a consciousness that we can take with us every where we go as well as share with everyone we meet. The Video emphasizes our Unity via the Spirit of God as we work together to serve God, no matter what patch we are wearing.” Watch Video celebrating Christian Bikers

Track 9 – “Remember Me”: Says Ann, “This song, written from the perspective of Jesus speaking at the Last Supper, invites us all to attune to the beautiful, healing power of His Presence (by the Spirit) each day and share it with others, everywhere we go. This song is also featured on the “Remember Me” album; but on this CD, the song arrangement carries a touch of Blues along with subtle tones of steel guitar & reminiscent of a Willie Nelson style Country ballad.” – Watch Video celebrating our Unity in Christ

Track 10 – “Polishin’ Up My Stone”: Says Ann, ” I wrote this song with my husband in mind, since we both love to dance to Cajun Music; but the message is universal to all souls….we may start with knowledge in life, but our stone becomes polished over time, as we embrace wisdom and compassion to add to our understanding.” Watch Video

Track 11 – “Time In The Journey of the Soul”: Says Ann, “Discovering & developing a sense of “Purpose” is a great thing to pass on to our young, but also something to live out fully in our own lives, offering to everyone we meet, an example of exuberance, coupled with peace that is based in the certainty of the spiritual destiny of our souls in Grace.” Watch Video

Track 13 – “You Gotta Move”: Says Ann, “Great ladies such as Sister Rosetta Tharpe spent years on the road, opening up the way for many others to follow. This is one of my favorites from her collection of great Gospel Blues.”
