[Daughter:] Hello
|
[Kirk:] Hey, it's me, Kirk, I need to speak to Bishop
|
[Daughter:] Sure, hold on...
|
|
[Jakes:] Hello...
|
[Kirk:] Hey... I got some stuff I need to talk to you about
|
Lately, pastor I've been...having all these crazy kind of dreams
|
It's hard to sleep, I can't eat...scary, you know
|
[Jakes:] I know what you mean
|
[Kirk:] I mean, every since that Tuesday, seems like life's just getting real strange
|
[Jakes:] I hear ya
|
Anthrax, terrorist attacks and... I ain't even trying to get on no plane
|
[Jakes:] I feel ya
|
[Kirk:]...and you know when I try to pray, there's a voice that telling that God's not real
|
[Jakes:] You know that's just the enemy
|
[Kirk:] Yea, but you ain't feelin' me
|
[Jakes:] No son, I know just know you feel...
|
See, just because I preach and teach don't mean I don't get scared sometimes
|
[Kirk:] yea, whatever, but you T.D. Jakes
|
[Jakes:] Well, then I don't make mistakes...
|
[Kirk:] Well...
|
[Jakes:] Now, let me tell you what's on my mind...
|
When your smile is gone (He cares)
|
[Kirk:] Yea, but I feel so alone (He's there and...)
|
[Jakes:] Although, your heart is heavy, God said: (every burden I will bear)
|
[Kirk:] See, but you don't know my (my pain)
|
And I'm getting so sick and tired of all (this rain)
|
I just got laid off, and to top it off the rent's due, so tell me what I got to gain?
|
[Jakes:] Well, see, trials come to make (you strong)
|
Storms won't last (last long)
|
[Kirk:] But how can I trust God in all this mess?
|
[Jakes:] Well, see that's the reason for the song
|
See, wherever you go there's one thing ya got to know
|
God, is right there by your side (weeping may endure for a night)
|
And he told me to tell you everything (everything's gon' be alright)
|
|
So thank you for calling...it's always good to hear from you
|
[Kirk:] yea, but...
|
[Jakes:] But I gotta go now
|
[Kirk:] wait a minute...
|
[Jakes:] I got another call on line 2
|
[Kirk:] But I ain't through
|
|
[Kirk:] See I'm sick and tired of all these church folk talking about stuff ain't as bad as it seems
|
See, y'all don't feel my pain...
|
[Jakes:] I don't have pain...?
|
[Kirk:] I don't see how...you on the cover on Time magazine
|
[Jakes:] See, but you're looking at now and you don't know how I struggled and what I've been through
|
[Kirk:] Yea, whatever...
|
[Jakes:] Now, you crossed the line...
|
[Kirk:] I'm just speakin' my mind
|
[Jakes:] O.K. so let me speak mine, too (Hmmmmmm)
|
I've made some mountains, I've seen some valleys, I've even had to cry sometimes
|
Like when I lost my mother
|
[Kirk:] Your mother?
|
[Jakes:] My mother:
|
[Kirk:] I'm sorry...
|
[Jakes:] No son...that's fine:...see life is full of ups and downs but God said
|
(the storm won't last long)
|
[Kirk:] But how'd you make it through?
|
[Jakes:] Boy, I thought you knew...it was His (love that kept me strong)
|
When your smile is gone (He cares)
|
[Kirk:] But I feel so alone (He's there and...)
|
[Jakes:] Although, your heart is heavy, God said...(every burden I will bear)
|
[Kirk:] yea, but see...y'all don't feel (my pain)
|
And I'm getting very sick and tired of all this (this rain)
|
Just got laid off, and to top it off the rent's due, so tell me, Bishop, what I gotta gain?
|
[Jakes:] Didn't I tell you trials come to make (you strong)
|
And those old storms won't (last long)
|
[Kirk:] How can I trust God in the midst of all this mess?
|
[Jakes:] See that's the reason for this song
|
Wherever you go there's something ya got to know (God still cares)
|
(weeping may endure for a night)
|
And he told me to tell you (everything's gon' be alright)
|
|
[Kirk:] Thank you pastor
|
Jakes: Any time...
|
[Kirk:] I think I can make it now...just tell me what I need to do
|
[Jakes:] Just pray this prayer with me...
|
Say: Father (Father) forgive me (forgive me) I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
|
Please help me (help me) I love you (I love you) I need you (I need you)
|
Hold me (hold me) Jesus (Jesus)
|
My heart (my heart) my soul (my soul) please take (please take) control (control)
|
Right now (Now) now (now) now (now) (right now)
|
|
[Jakes:] When you ain't got no smile (he cares)
|
