Gimme that God Almighty
That good ol' Bible
That old school doctrine
Gimme that truth for the body
Ain't nothing new about it
But it's still full of power
[Chorus – KB]
Now church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap, let me hear the church clap
[Verse 1 – Lecrae]
Gimme that church mother and they church hat, clap
Man the Shug Avery Color Purple comin' back, clap uhh
Uhh … when that whole week beat you up and stress ya
But you hear that organ playing, it remind ya of ya blessings
And on another note, she just hit another note
Chills down my spine, got me crying, make me over Lord
You don't know about it though, old school church hymns
Speakers get to humming, now the drummer finna burst in
“Lordy, lordy, LORD” Can you hear me now?
Church clothes sweaty, you don't care, you just get it now
Testify how we made martyrs outta these fathers
And rose up all of his daughters to glorify him with honor
Man I swear I saw Miss Jones with her hair did
Now it's flying everywhere, she don't care what her head did
She an heir, yeah, caught up in the air, yea
Probably why she clappin' like Jesus just reappeared here
Gimme that God Almighty
That good ol' Bible
That old school doctrine
Gimme that truth for the body
Ain't nothing new about it
But it's still full of power
[Chorus – KB]
Now church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap, let me hear the church clap
[Verse 2 – KB]
I wanna be the type of dude to get the Lord on his feet
I wanna do the type of shows that the Lord wanna see
What I mean, if I can make the whole church clap
But ain't a clap in the heavens, then that clap's just a clap
Clap for the Son glorified, sin mortified
The Holy Spirit's going, Word of Truth been watered down
It's sound doctrine, get Spurgeon and common out
Nothing wrong with singing loud but that ain't where the power's at
For too long the church churches been clappin' at weak sermons
Leaving the weak hurt, no one's changed by Sunday's service
We need discernment, check what you be affirmin'
‘Cause a church can be full of members but empty in conversions
Preach the gospel, and stand back
Look for change lives, not for hand claps
Love people well, oh they can't stand that
The church just a church when the Word is where we stand at
Gimme that God Almighty
That good ol' Bible
That old school doctrine
Gimme that truth for the body
Ain't nothing new about it
But it's still full of power
[Chorus – KB]
Now church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap, let me hear the church clap
