Call It Yours
I try so hard to let you take control
when i'm out there facing the crowd
But my pride and my sin have got me praising myself
though i don't wana let you down
And i try and i try and i try
But i need you here [x2]
[hook]
I look at myself in the mirror everyday
tryna figure out just what to change
And do all i can to look beyond my face
into what you want me to be
And i look and i look and i look
But i need you here [x2]
[hook]
When i walk in the shadow of the wings of your spirit
i can't help but speak the truth
Though i can feel every struggle every pain inside
i know that i can trust in you
And i walk and i walk and i walk
But i need you here [x2]
[hook]
hook:
Would you find me
Would you save me
Tell me everything is gonna be alright
Would you take me
Would you use me
Take my life on earth and call it yours
Amen

Let Him Be
let him be your dream let him be your wish
let him be your deepest fantasy
you can strive to be who you wana be
seize the opportunity cos you're meant to be free
every single day im still caught in the game
// still got the stress in my brain, tryna deal with the pain
// memories from the past // and the scars left behind by the cuts
// trying not to fall, tryna brave it all, trying to say to god
// you're my all, you're my everything
// please take this song that i sing as an offering
// and i know that you sold your son as a ransom
with his death on the cross you bought me my freedom
// how can i call myself a product of the system
when you planned for me to be a part of your kingdom
// seems kinda bizarre to me
reaching out to the masses in the 21st century
// ministry over industry
// and my people infected by the media, deadly bacteria
// in the form of sublime messages psychologically eating ya
// and we all care about the money and the profits
// don't take the time to listen to the prophets
// and we all love the rich, but the search for the truth should be brought to the kids
[h]
i'm at war with the spirit that got you onto drugs
turned my sisters into freaks and my brothers into thugs
// never letting go of what they must
// but god has given me faith to play my part
// and today i'm at war with the spirit that said you couldnt do it
i'm at war with the spirit that told you you were stupid
// we are fallible but god is so holy
he knows we are worthy and we can be holy
// and i'm proud to be his servant
// and i'm ready for the age of the serpent satan and the seven-headed dragon
that shook the foundations of this nation and caused us to falter as christians
// i know that this mission is hard but i got love for the people
// caught in the struggle
// tryna find the missing piece of the jigsaw puzzle
// and they say that they wana win the battle
// i need yall to see that this is more than a hobby
// this is spiritual more than physical
and you can ask the lord jesus christ to take you to another level, if only you...
