[Intro: Martin Luther King, Jr.]
I say to you this morning
That if you have never found
Something so dear and so precious to you
That you will die for it
Then you aren't fit to live
Some great issue, some great cause
[Verse 1: JustPierre]
Back up in the spot like parallel parking
Spreading news how through Jesus my sins was pardoned
He said He's coming soon, like a movie preview
And when this life's over, through Christ, I'll have a sequel
There is no equal, my God is righteous
Excited to know we was made in His likeness
His Word is vibrant, it's sharper than a two-edged sword
So when I'm reciting I'm slicing
My soul is priceless, don't need a price scan
He the star of the show, and I'm the hype-man
Through Christ, we are changed in and out
Keep searching, you won't find this type of change in your couch
Watching and praying, avoiding temptation
Keeping His commandments, holding on to His statements
'Til He return with His glory and His greatness
And put satan in his place like a real estate agent
UH!
[Chorus]
For God I live, for God I live
(Be faithful unto d**h)
For God I live, for God I live
(If we suffer with Him, we will reign with Him)
For God I live, for God I live
(Be faithful unto d**h)
For God I live, for God I live
(If we suffer with Him, we will reign with Him)
[Verse 2]
I tell 'em Jesus still saving like a flash drive
Our redemption, silver and gold can't buy
We gone let our light shine like a campfire
We a town on a hill that you can't hide
In the army of the LORD, dodging landmines
Bringing glory to His name 'til I flatline
Don't get it twisted, in this picture, I'm the bad guy
For you and me, on that tree, He was chastised
Sin equal d**h, I earned a check, but He cashed mine
That's an expensive fee, I can't lie
So if you wonder why I praise Him
If you wonder why I thank Him, there is your explanation
How could this be
He chose to die for this sinner while nothing was good in me
So I'm counting up the cost, I'm taking up my cross
Forsaking my will and following after the boss
JESUS!
[Chorus]
