"Intro"

"Intro"



Oh beautiful for spacious skies for amber waves of grain,
(You are listening to a group of children from Africa.)
For purple mountains majesties above the fruited plain,
(Their parents have died from war, famine, and AIDS)
America, America God shed His grace on thee
(I ask all of you who take life and freedom for granted)
And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea
(Please don't forget to pray for Africa.)

"It's Time"

"It's Time"
(feat. Tasha Page-Lockhart & Zacardi Cortez)



(We're so glad you joined us)
We've been waiting for Your presence to arrive all day
(We're humbled You're here)
We kneel up at Your feet and we refuse to leave the same
(The truth is)
Yokes don't break on their own
Our hands are not that strong
And giving up feels wrong
When you've been waiting for so long
(Come on!)
For destiny and victory to finally collide
(Yes!)
There's no sound more sweeter than when God says "It's time"

(I get prideful)
Every time I step out independent, God I fail
(You still take me back)
So here we are broken, so glad that You destroyed the veil
(Because of the cross)
Condemnation is all gone
Humbled before Your Throne
(Thank You)
You say this is where I belong
That I've been patient for so long
(For destiny)
For destiny and victory to finally collide
There's no sound more sweeter than when God says "It's time"
(So tell)
So tell all the voices I'm doing just fine
(Tell 'em I'm good)
For this day is the day when God says "It's time"

Time for power and not just things
Time for healing the inner me
Time to be truly free to walk in faith not in what I see
No more time for childish things to warm you up and feel complete
What shall we say about these things
Soon in time the world will see
Destiny and victory finally collide
There's no sound more sweeter than when God says "It's time"
So tell all the voices "I'm doing just fine"
For this day is the day when God says "It's time"

(Time for heartache to leave my life)
For this day is the day when God says "It's time"
(Rumors, sickness, defeat, goodbye)
Lift your voices, God says "It's time"
(Jobless, homeless, you don't know the... you don't know the...
You don't know the trouble)
But this day is the day when God says "It's time"
(You're stronger, closer, you didn't give up the fight)
Lift your voices, God says "It's time"
(All the praying, all you've been believing,
Don't give up the fight no no)
This day is the day when God says "It's time"
(All things are working together for your good
So I know it's gon' be alright)
Lift your voices
God says "IT'S TIME!"

"Jesus"

"Jesus"


[Verse I]
Ooh, superstar
Never drove around in a fancy car
Kids looked at me funny, momma she had no money but she always told me,
"Baby, know who yo are"
I say ooh, don't know
It was hard always wearing my cousin clothes
Can you hand me down a dream with those hand-me-down jeans?
Thought I'd never make it, but i made it y'all, 'cause I had...

[Chorus]
Jesus
When I had nothing, had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus
The reason I am still breathing is 'cause

Jesus [3x]

[Verse II]
Ooh, look at me
I know I'm not all I'm supposed to be, I'm gonna get it right,
didn't get here overnight, so while you're waiting please wait patiently
I say ooh, it's so sweet to know You were always in love with me
Though my game was clever, but no one can play me better than Yoiu
You know You always win cause You're

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Ooh
When I think about Your name I go
Ooh
How You took away my pain I go Ooh
Every night at the club
Ain't no wife at the club
That Jesus He be showing me love
They said I wasn't gon' make it Kirk
I know how taht sound
It's only by His grace I can say 'look at me now'
If you love this joint right here
I want you to call your radio station in the moring
And I want you to tell 'em
Hey Mr. DJ
Can you play my favorite song? (Will you play my favorite song?)
I heard it say it's gonna get better
We gon' make out the hood someday
Hey Mr. DJ
I wanna hear that song about Jesus
I heard my moma crying, I gotta let her know He's gonna wipe her tears away
You are listening to sound of a brotha who should be dead right now
But I'm so glad God didn't give up on me!
Ain't you glad He didn't give up on you?
What's His name?

[Chorus]

Hey Mr. DJ, Jesus [4x]

"Keep Your Head"

"Keep Your Head"


Keep your head to the sky [2X]

I look in your eyes
I know your fight after your trouble, waiting in line
Praying this time, life won’t pass you by
In the news, another one dies
Tell me what do you do
Negativity pulling me down
I can’t stay down,
I wish I could make it go away
Wish I could find the right words to say
I’m calling you please
Jesus I need to hear a word from you

Gotta know that there’s more to this life than what I can see
Wanna feel how it feels to know real love and see me happy
Have a faith that can say to a storm your temporary
I want to be free, if you want to be free

Keep your head to the sky
Keeping my eyes on you, you got to come thru
Cause you promised
Keep your head to the sky we only wait till you come,
Cause you’re the one my heart’s created for

[Repeat song]

Keep your head to the sky
Keeping my eyes on you, you got to come thru
Cause you promised
Keep your head to the sky we only wait till you come,
Cause you’re the one my heart’s created for

Keep your head to the sky [repeat]
