Overcomin' Child of God Lyrics
All my friends been wondering
Where my future lies
Since I took my stand for Christ
And gave Him my life
You see they're wondering just what's in store
Since I've quote, you know, found the way
That's when the Lord stirs up my soul
And I quite clearly say. . .
I'm growing up to be born again, blood washed, spirit filled
Testifying child of the King
I'm going to praise Him in the morning, through the afternoon, 'til night.
And then I'll dream about witnessing.
I'm gonna walk and talk and act like Jesus
Though I may get feathered and tarred
The world may try and stop my mission, but I'll grow with opposition
Cause I'm an overcomin' Child of God.
The expressions on their faces change
Every single time
You know the looks they give are priceless
But so's this Holy Ghost look on mine.
You see now God wants us to share the Lord, right?
Isn't that our Christian task?
So when someone says,
"Hey what's happening, man?"
I say, "Brother, I Never thought you'd ask."
Well I'm proud to be living for Jesus
Proud to be a Bible thumpin', pew jumpin',
Jesus lovin', devil shovin',
Blood bought, red hot, soul redeemin', shoutin', screamin' and . . .
I'm growing up to be born again, blood washed, spirit filled
Testifying child of the King.
I'm going to praise Him in the morning, through the afternoon, 'til night.
And then I'll dream about witnessing.
I'm gonna walk and talk and act like Jesus
Though I may get feathered and tarred
The world may try and stop my mission, but I'll grow with opposition
Cause I'm an overcomin' Child of God.
The world may try and stop my mission, but I'll grow with opposition
Cause I'm a Bible totin', scripture quotin', sin defacin', devel chasin', Chorus hummin', guitar strummin', gospel preachin', soul reachin',
Overcomin' Child of God.
