Testimony 04:46
The world is full of miracles Let me talk about my case When I first time heard His voice It was something not so pleasant I didn't even know his name And I didn't care I used to think John Lennon was just a famous guy But now he's the closest friend of mine The same thing happened to me and God What a miracle The world is full of troubles Let me talk about my case I always wanted to change this world Now I know who to ask I finally learned His name And His name was Love I used to hear His voice in the sound of Rock But now He's the closest friend of mine The same thing can happen to you What a miracle (gs) You hear a word - the word is God You see an image - the image is God You have a thought - the thought is God It's something you can't touch, but He's always there

Precious 04:42
I hear people say we're totally useless and nobody cares about us They're wrong (yes they're wrong) They're wrong (so so wrong) They're wrong (yes they're wrong) They're wrong (so so wrong) I know some people say we're a powerless little group and it's no use They're wrong (yes they're wrong) They're wrong (so so wrong) They're wrong (yes they're wrong) They're wrong (so so wrong) Because the Lord saved us from the evil instead of them He said You're so precious in my eyes No matter how big or how small you are So keep doing what you're doing Hold on to your love and Stay With Me Yes, He told me so That's the biggest joy in my life You may keep asking yourself I'm so useless and who cares about me? You're wrong (yes, you're wrong) You're wrong (so so wrong) You're wrong (yes, you're wrong) You're wrong (so so wrong) Because the Lord has a plan just for you Yes He does He said, You're so precious in my eyes No matter how good or how bad you are Just remember I'm on your side Hold on to your faith and Stay With Me Yes, He told me so That's the greatest thing in my life I know once in a while The Lord performs a miracle or two Just to show His love to you Just to show that He loves you

Let me tell you about a girl in the mirror She's living in another world behind the mirror I fell in love with her when I saw her in my bathroom mirror We could hear each other but couldn't touch And she grew up as I grew up Somehow we're living a similar life Spark, spark Oh, oh, we're so magnetic The mirror rejects me when I try to touch her Reach out, What a strange relationship We know each other so well But can't even touch Feels like I am living one more life I guess she's my counterpart in the parallel world Let me tell you about the magic moment One day I went through my bathroom mirror She was sick and crying in her room I wanted to kiss her but that's not what I did The only thing I could do Was to tell her boyfriend that she needs him now Spark, spark Oh, oh, we're so electric She gives me energy when we smile at each other Reach out, She's a girl living in another world We're leading the same life on both sides of the mirror Feels like we're walking on 2 parallel roads Which never cross each other but always so close When our roads meet at the end I'll show you what I found in my life So show me yours, I can't wait 'Cause we are twins who share one soul

Oh Lord, Father in heaven I will bow down to you I will kneel down to you Oh wow, such an incredible blessing I can only thank you I can only thank you All the things you gave me yesterday All the things you will give me tomorrow More than anything I thank you for this miraculous moment You gave me freedom You gave me this day For a little man like me You gave me light, you gave me joy You gave me all the hope By the blood of Jesus Christ Oh Lord, such a huge blessing You promised me You promised me Oh wow, what a peace of mind I'm overwhelmed I'm overwhelmed Those things I really want Those things I really need More than anything I thank you because you know them all You gave me mercy You gave me this life For a trifle being like me You gave me love, you gave me dreams You gave me all the happiness In the name of Jesus Christ

One On One 04:17
It's not a big cathedral It's not on Channel Two It's not ten thousand audience In a dark basement In a lonely attic On a top of mountain * He wants to talk to you He wants you to call His name It's one on one, face to face He wants to love you He wants you to look for Him It's one on one He is always there for you It's not a great preacher It's not a great statesman It's not a great big star With your own friends With your team mates With your brothers and sisters He wants to talk to you He wants you to call His name It's one on one, face to face He wants to love you He wants you to look for Him It's one on one He is always there for you Let's party hard It's a miracle we're here together Then when the party is over Let's spend time with someone you love (gs) Now everybody asleep But I can still talk to Him 'Cause He's always there Even when I'm sleeping He has everything He is infinite So I ask Him my new guitar He's a so perfect Santa Claus *repeat For each of us 'Cause we're all His children

God Kids 04:40
I call myself a Christian 'cause I got a gut to fight with God Even Jacob fought with God, that's how he won the love of God I guess we're just little kids who want Father's attention I won't walk away from you, because You Yourself have taught me I don't care what teachers or pastors say I just Wanna be loved x3 I ain't hearing nobody but Him Jesus, 'cause He loves me! I call myself a Christian 'cause I talk with God everyday How can you really understand even before you throw a question? I don't wanna be a robot because you can't love a robot Help me understand your orders, then I will sing about your miracles I don't care how big or famous your church is I just Wanna be loved x3 I ain't seeing nobody but Him Jesus, 'cause He loves me! Try not to listen to the human rules You like to classify everything like music sub genre Jesus didn't classify us, He just loved everybody How dare you say God is alive, you hypocrites The gospel is not only for you It's for everybody The gospel is not only for you It's for everybody (even for me) I don't care what teachers or pastors say I just Wanna be loved x3 Break every rule and seek for Jesus way Jesus way, embrace Jesus!

When I started playing music It was almost like a suicide But God told me something Just Be Beautiful I knew I would always be lonely I knew I would always be away from success in this world That's why I call myself a wandering savior The biggest joke in my life That's why I call myself a wandering savior I'm destined to wander till I die Then I started my long journey It took me everywhere And God told me something It's time to see My Son I thought I would always be lonely But now at least I have one friend (So great a friend) That's why I call myself a wandering savior The most pathetic being in the world That's why I call myself a wandering savior The one who needs God's help most (gs) I came here just to have fun I came here just to have fun I'm not supposed to save any of you That's why I call myself a wandering savior I'm destined to wander till I die No, I'm not gonna save the world You save the world No, I'm not gonna save the world You save the world No, I'm not gonna save the world You save the world 'Cause it's your world

Simple 04:42
Many people have told me Why don't you live your life more simply? They don't understand how difficult it is To be really simple Just like blue jeans Like AC/DC, like an apple pie Great things can't be done, not so easily When your life is so messed up So many wounds to heal Yes, I'm doing all the complicated things Just to be simple, just to be simple Running from coast to coast, taking years and years Just to say these 3 words "Thank You God" Many people have adviced me Why don't you become more simple They don't understand how long it takes To be really simple Just like a red rose Like a rolling stone, like a glass of water Nothing is so easy, as it seems When your mind is so blind So many bills to pay Yes, I have run all the wrong ways Just to be simple, just to be simple Working from 9 to 6, crying all night Just to say these 3 words "I Love You"

Dear father, you're not broken You were just too smart to live in this world Like a highly advanced machine, you need a good care And now I can see how faithful your life was It's not a coincidence I was born as your child I was given my life for what you believe and what you love Just like a bow and an arrow We repel each other I'm flying straight in the air Dear mother, you're not crazy You just had too much love for what people can't see I thought it's impossible for me to change you That's why I ran away instead of fighting you It's not a coincidence I was born as your child I was given my life for what you seek and what you crave Just like a bow and an arrow I'm made of your prayer I'm still flying straight in the air I have changed my name Just like I told you when I was 14 Hope there is a way to show you all I have seen Anything you regret, anything you gave up I just want you to know my life was not so bad Just like a bow and an arrow I am your prayer I'm flying straight in the air No one can really forgive you No one but God But even so Let me forgive you No one can really forgive you No one but God But even so I still love you I still love you

No matter how much love you got If it can't save the poorest people There's no meaning There's no meaning No matter how gentle the word is If it can't reach the loneliest people There's no meaning There's no meaning Just think what He really wants Love is to do something no one dares to do Like giving up a piece of pie Like saying sorry to your friend Love is to do something no one dares to do Like bearing the cross Yeah, like bearing all the sins on this planet No matter how right the teaching is No matter how good the act is If it's forced and not spontaneous If it's not from your heart There's no meaning There's no meaning You just got to be beautiful Love is to do something no one dares to do Like fighting for someone you love Like praying for your enemy Love is to do something no one dares to do Like bearing the cross Yeah, like bearing all the sins on this planet (gs) Just try to be yourself Just to please the Lord Just offer the best you got Just to praise the Lord

Forget 03:36
Let yourself forget everything Let yourself forget everything Those things you learned at school Those things you learned at work Those things somebody told you Everything you don't like Everything you don't need Let them all fade away Then you will see what you really need Then you will see what your soul really wants to see Let yourself forget everything Let yourself forget everything Those things you learned at church Those things you learned in this world Those things somebody told you Forget all the whites Forget all the blacks Let them all fade away Then you will see what you really want Then you will see what you really have to remember

about

This is "Christian Rock from Japan"!. This is our Love Offering. Kick-ass 80s heavy metal sound with faith!
Tak and IMARi ToNES always focused on Love, not on success or fame. It is not what we can get, but what we can give. We always did our recordings independently, and we wanted do that once more, with our Faith for God. After we came back from our first tour in the United States, Tak heard God's voice and he thought now he could make a real Christian rock album. Tak has done his best songwriting ever in this album. Unlimitted guitar riffs, so many rhythm changes, and soaring high melodies. It was only possible with the power of Holy Spirit. The result is quite a unique rock sound, influenced by Rush, Van Halen, Stryper combined. It may still not perfect, but this is our Love and this is our Devotion. Now "Faith Rider" is our most powerful metal song, and "Love Is To Do Something No One Dares To Do" is now our best ballad song. All songs are sung in English. This is 3rd Imari Tones's album made for international market.
