I keep trying to make sense of the world today
Trying to show others that I mean what I say
I want to show the world Jesus is the way
The message that I preach in my song
Can show you right from wrong
I know with the world telling you you gotta’ live strong
What does it mean to be a Christ follower
With so many people today, their walk couldn’t be shallower
I am not trying to say that I am perfect, but I know the man who is
Walking the walk is not as easy as one may be led to think
This life like the Titanic is beginning to sink
Grab a life boat a hold of the real sin Savior
The message that I speak of requires a drastic change in behavior
If you want to get up and walk away from sin
Not sayin’ you won’t fall down again
I am telling you to listen
Try to explain the message of salvation
So simple yet so complex, yet so freeing it can feed a starvin’ nation
I want you to hear me, asking God to open up your eyes and free you from a life of lies
I know that He hears us when we cry
Then why you askin’ what makes you so fly
Emotions sometimes grip us and we seem to try this life on our own
Often ignoring the love that you’ve shown
On the cross he died for you and me,
Up on Calvary for all to see
Trying to comprehend
Why time was suspended
You rose from the dead and told me to come
You told me that you died for me
You came to save the world, to set the captives free
I can’t fathom love bein’ more than just what you feel
and yet so freeing you told me to keep it real.
You have shown me what it means to live
A life of freedom a life with a purpose
I tried to let you know that my life was a wreck
You told me you would lift me up when I hit the deck
I was drowning in the sea of doubt
Not thinking any one could save me, I was down and out
There is one God in whom you should trust
He’ll remove from your bein’ your greed and your lust
Do you realize this story can become a reality
all you have to do is believe and he will save you from fatality
I really didn’t know what it meant to be saved
Then I found what all my life I had craved
One savior, one God, one reality, one mission, one view of the earth
One way, one salvation, one cross, one second birth
How could I realize that I had been so blind
to the truth, trusting in other things to help me unwind
I wanted to learn from my mistakes
Look at the world I see a whole bunch of fakes
Have you ever wondered if there is a God who cares
A God who loves you if you may dare
To believe in Him in the death and resurrection
Remember the church full of persecution
If you don’t believe me its there in the Word
Jesus took the fall for all of man’s sins and Peter the sword
How many times must I forgive my brother
Take a slap on the cheek and turn the other
Jesus told me to love my enemies and pray for those who curse you
With that being said what’s the least you can do
He gave you His life, and wants to be yours
The only one who doesn’t care if you do all your chores
We must love one another and show His love to all
That is what He wants that is our call
How many times have you stumbled
Only to look ahead and see your whole life has crumbled
Broken down with my face on the ground
Crying myself to sleep when no one is around
I didn’t know what it means to be called His own Son
When I get to heaven I hope to hear the words job well done.
Joined as one and beckoned to come
At the cross He called me, when I thought I was scum
I wanted to be there and ask Him why can’t life be fair
Only to show me 3 nail marks later that he cares
He called us to life different than the others
You hear me homie g’s my soul brothers?
