I Don't Know Much Copyright Steve Anson Verse 1: I don't know much But I know It's easy To run away from God. Everything in this world Is made to hide the truth That God loves you. He came to save, But oneday He'll judge you For running away. Chorus: Ask yourself why we die. Sin's reward is death. We can't run fast enough To claim our reward! Verse 2: I don't know much. But I know its hard to come to Christ. Your family and friends Are all gonna turn their back on you. That's the price you pay For following Jesus. But you're not alone. God's Spirit and God's people are with you. Chorus. I don't know much. But I know its easy to run away. Everything in this world Is made to hide the truth That God loves you. Take His forgiveness. Nothing can separate you from God's love.

God Didn't Plan It That Way Copyright 2023 Two Servants Verse 1: Well I woke up early this morning To the sound of a siren calling. I said, "Hey what is going on down there?" It was then that I heard a young girl scream. She said, "Please, help me if you will" "Coz I'm dying of an overdose of pills." Well my heart broke into pieces. Had to tell her all that God teaches. Chorus: God didn't plan it this way. He doesn't want you to drown. He wants you to be found. But first you've got to know you're lost. Bridge: Sin's got you running and it won't let you go. Sin's got you running and it won't let you go. Sin's got you running and it won't let you go. Better take it to the one who knows what you're going through. Verse 2: So I went home and turned on the tv. Saw a movie raging on the screen. But this wasn't any movie, Just the way the day had been. Chorus. Bridge. Verse 3: I went to bed later that evening. Tossing and turning and dreaming. In my mind I could stil hear that girl screaming. But I told her all she had to know. Chorus. Bridge. Repeat Bridge.

Oh Soul 03:00
Oh Soul Copyright 2023 Two Servants Oh soul are you weary and troubled inside Have the winters of life taken their toll Has Satan had his way - Played you like a throw-away toy? Are your burdens so heavy that you can’t stay alive? Are their tears in your eyes from the memories you hide? Oh soul, Come to the truth while you can. Chorus 1 Oh come to Jesus His arms so wide, He’s waiting to take you back to His side. Come as you are Loaded with sin Don’t try to get yourself together You sure aint going to win. Don’t hold to your pride like an anchor so strong, The chains that hold you are earthly bonds, Oh soul Come to the truth while you can. Brightly does His spirit shine Into this old heart of mine Oh soul Come to the truth while you can. Chorus 2 Oh come to Jesus His arms so wide, He’s waiting to take you back to His side. Oh come to Jesus His arms so wide, He’s waiting to take you back to His side. Come as you are Loaded with sin Don’t try to get yourself together You sure aint going to win Oh soul are you weary and troubled inside Have the winters of life taken their toll Has Satan had his way, Played you like a throw-away toy?

Evil Eyes 04:21
Evil Eyes Copyright 2023 Two Servants (Based on the poem "Evil Eyes" by Joseph Stephen, from More Than Meets The Eye C2012 Inspired by the movie Sound of Freedom.) Please support organizations such as Operation Underground Railroad https://ourrescue.org/ set up to rescue such children. Verse 1: Thousands of innocent children each day, Are forced into bondage and traded as slaves. Snatched from their families and sent far away, To gratify lusts of the rich and depraved. Chorus: And we all stand guilty if we turn away. And we all stand guilty if we turn away. Verse 2: Lulled into thinking our children are safe, Nothing can touch them, “won’t happen to me.” But evil eyes may be watching them now, Waiting for the opportunity. Instrumental Bridge: If I walk by and do nothing. It means I agree with what’s happening. If I walk by and do nothing. It means I agree with what’s happening. Verse 3: Starved and tortured, their innocence stolen, Savagely assaulted, their spirit broken. It’s time to start teaching the next generation To honour the women and children we love. Chorus. Bridge. Verse 4: The promiscuous culture amongst our youth, Can be transformed by the gospel’s truth, Or they might just be the ones willing to pay, To defile our own precious children one day. Chorus. Bridge. If I walk by ... Original poem: Evil Eyes The Scourge of Child Trafficking 6 November 2012 Joseph K Stephen Thousands of innocent children each day, Are forced into bondage and traded as slaves. Snatched from their families and sent far away, To gratify lusts of the rich and depraved. Impoverished families peddle their children, Who are promised an affluent future. But what happens to each precious treasure, Is hell upon earth beyond measure. It’s worse than abortion for they go on enduring, Longing for parents to comfort their fears, Their abusers unfeeling, their pain unrelenting. Hardened by cruelty, futile their tears. Starved and tortured, their innocence stolen, Savagely assaulted, their spirit broken. Forced to serve men, daily more than a dozen, Discarded as refuse, their lives left in ruin. Complacent we think that Wilberforce triumphed, Slavery abolished through his diligent stand, A million times worse, it goes on unabated, While Christians relax with their head in the sand. Lulled into thinking our children invulnerable, Nothing can touch them, “it won’t happen to me.” But even around you, evil eyes may be watching, Waiting for just the right opportunity. It’s somebody’s daughter, it’s somebody’s son, It’s not just a nameless, faceless one. Not just a statistic, a number out there, Each one of them precious, each one of them dear. Most go unreported where nobody cares, Only the rich get attention for theirs. A handful are rescued but forever scarred, But the cry of the majority continues unheard. The tragedy too is just who is involved, It explains why such cases are rarely solved. Judges, Policemen, politicians as well. All contribute to this network from hell. Be vigilant oh parent, be on your guard. No child is safe, even in their back yard. But knowledge is power in the hands of the wise, Our children must learn that snares are disguised. Don’t blame God for man’s deprave action. He made all things good at the start of creation. He gave us laws for our own protection, But our hearts are deceitful, with wicked affection. We despise God’s law, it “stifles expression”, Unless someone’s crime threatens our freedom. We would rather be free from law’s bounding fence, And then blame God with the sad consequence. It’s time to make a bold stand in the church, To speak against the pornographical scourge. But it plagues many pastors just the same, So the church remains silent to its own shame. Empty the closet of skeleton bones. Take stock of the media which fills our homes. Remove the fuel and extinguish the flame. Till this sin is forsaken, we’re part of the blame. As Christians we must do all that we can, To stop this self-centred satisfaction of man. It starts with us teaching the next generation, To value and protect all women and children. The promiscuous culture amongst our youth, Must be transformed by the gospel’s truth, Or they might just be the ones willing to pay, To defile your own precious child one day.

Evolution Of A Car Copyright 2023 Two Servants I'm waiting here for my car to grow. I've been told that's the way it should go. It could take a million years or so. I hope I don't get last year's model. But if I go down to the factory And see someone build a car for me, I see a designer, the plans he made. Its such a good car designed for me. Chorus: Are you as thick as a brick? Don't you understand What I'm saying to you? You're spiritually blind. You can't see the truth. But you can seek it if you want to. I know you're there laughing at me, Another Bible believing fool. Surely you must think something's wrong? No-one seems to get along. We've long forgotten creater God Who made this world so beautiful. But this is what you get when you believe a lie. Chorus. Repeat verse 1. Designed for me. Designed for me.

At Heaven's Gates Copyright 2023 Two Servants Standing here at heaven's gates They're gonna ask me questions what I'm doing here. I said "The man on the middle cross said it was ok." "Come on in, He's paid your debt." "He's got a place for you to stay." "He's been waiting for you oh so long." Let the redeemed sing this song. Chorus: 'Tis finished, the fight with death and sin! My eyes are filled with joys of Him. The Prince of Peace is the saviour of my soul... Verse 2: Why don't we tell people about our Christ? Instead we make them comfortable for hell. The church bells are all quiet now. We're all holiday bound. Verse 3: Don't wanna point the finger at you. I'm just the same as anybody else. We all struggle in a world of sin. People's hearts are hard. Standing here at heaven's gates They're gonna ask me questions what I'm doing here. I said "The man on the middle cross said it was ok." "Come on in, He's paid your debt."

about

At Heaven's Gates is Joseph and Steve's fourth album since they began singing again in 2019.

Steve lives in Adelaide with his wife of more than 45 years, Mandy. Joseph is totally blind and lives in Tasmania with his wife of 27+ years, Mary, and four of his nine children. Steve sends his guitar and vocal tracks to Joseph in Tasmania via email and Joseph does the rest.

This album contains a track inspired by the movie "Sound of Freedom." It is hoped that this track, Evil Eyes, will inspire listeners to financially support the work of organizations such as Operation Underground Railroad or Destiny Rescue, set up to rescue children from child trafficking and to help make people aware of what is happening to children everywhere. If you can't financially support organizations, the least you can do is help by respecting women and children and teaching others to do the same. Donations from this album will go to such organizations.

Primarily this album reminds us of the journey of life. It reminds us of the folly and sad consequences of running from the God who loves us, the dead end of religion, the joy of a restored relationship, and the security of the believer in Christ's finished work.
This album, like others, is a constant reminder to know where you stand before almighty God. That salvation is by faith alone in Christ alone and that good works, while glorifying God, do not add to one's salvation. This album is a reminder of the fact that Christianity is not a dead religion, but a living, restored, relationship with Almighty God, maker of heaven and earth and redeemer of those who put their faith in Christ's completed sacrifice on the cross of Calvary.
