Martin Luther King Jr - The Dilemma lyrics

[Verse 1: JustWord] All together now With no divide I guess, I guess, I guess that's why we multiply We live for Him now And so we'll die You see the mark You know the tribe The kingdom expands as the gospel spreads Separation from God, boy, our soul dread Got that heavenly attire, we'll rock those threads And them all white linens, we'll rock those fresh It's word over world You shouldn't desire both Cause He got the body covered like a choir robe Your hearts like a city You better guard them gates I ain't from Jersey, but I know about the Garden State They say life is what you make of it But some see life and don't know what to make of it There's many trials, many trials, that surround your boy They don't add up; I still count them joy [Bridge: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.] We must not allow anybody or any force to make us feel that we do not count. I mean that we're gonna have to work hard. We're gonna have to burn the midnight oil sometime. We must set out to do our life's work so well, that nobody could do it better [Verse 2: JustWord] Aye, Whoodie! If the beat goes nice Then give the drummer some If the flows well, then give the plumber some It's not about the amount of people that I reach Or the money that I make I don't care if the numbers come He knew us, now we know Him We let it shine bright Don't be soaked in See, the Father treats us like we don't sin Cause He put it on His tab like drinks on Him Surely this was written to evangelize the aints At the same time, I know it will edify the saints My man's like, how can I be dead if I'm awake? I can tell he struggle with the answer by his face I told him, answer the call like receptionists Go ahead and spill your heart like confessions kid It's your time to go, like a crosswalk And every believer gets across, like pedestrians [Outro: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.] The dilemma and the challenge. This is our dilemma. But this dilemma is at one and the same time, a great challenge. We are challenged to make a creative contribution in the life of our nation
