You got a minute for your son, Father?
|
I need to talk I뭢 so tired of trying to run, Father
|
Let뭩 take a walk I뭢 so sorry for whut I뭭e done, Father
|
It ain뭪 my fault The devil뭩 been on my back lately He뭩 like a hawk
|
You never give us more than we can handle But it뭩 gettin hard
|
And I뭢 a strong individual But i need you, God
|
A lot of things that I used to I don뭪 wanna
|
Runnin tha streets like i used ta
|
I know i뭢 gonna speak the word for you one day
|
Up in the light -- Halleluiah!! -- on Sunday
|
I thank you Lord for the blessings that you gave me
|
And for my life the blessings taht you have saved me
|
and for my wife
|
you have carried me 몁uff times and that뭩 the truth
|
carried me through the rough times throughout my youth
|
and through it that i saw you was still wit me
|
i was that one lost sheep and you was comin to get me
|
|
[chorus]
|
lord, you got me like..... your luv got me like....
|
lord, you got me like.... your luv got me like....
|
lord, you got me like.... your luv got me like....
|
lord, you got me like.... your luv GOT ME LIKE....
|
|
i뭢 lookin at life a lil?different now since you hugged me
|
and i always luved my people but now they luv me
|
thank you for the luv, Lord, we praise ya
|
Jacob, ascendents, from africa to asia
|
bleeding the blood of Christ over our life
|
Wrong or right just help us make it through the night
|
And we뭠l shout your name in times of need
|
and times of joy and when we bleed
|
and when we are overcome with grief
|
you don뭪 have to tell me twice; i뭢a take heed
|
and because of whut you뭭e given me, i know you뭠l deliver me
|
and i won뭪 drown no matter how deep the river be
|
you are the strength i never knew i had
|
kept the heart good when they told me it was bad,
|
all praise is due to ya, that's why I had to dedicate somethin new to ya,
|
thank you Father
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
Uhhh i never knew a luv like this before
|
messin with the Thug Life, i missed it all
|
open up the doors and let me in
|
i뭢 done wit the cards so let뭩 begin
|
prayers that you give to me, i give to them
|
same way you live in me i live in them
|
life is a blessing now you got me smiling
|
from inside of my heart when inside it was dark
|
and it doesn뭪 rain any more only sunshine
|
no pain anymore.... i really luv mine
|
you wash away the tears with the fears
|
i뭢 happier than i뭭e ever been in my life, in thirty years
|
you know that
|
one day i뭠l speak the word
|
you know that!
|
when i do, i will be hear
|
you know that!
|
you have me a permanenet smile
|
and you know this, Father, cuz i뭢 ur child!!
