The Pilgrim: Lord Jesus You're the King and You reign over everything
Nothing is impossible to You not even anything
Forever never perishing, You're beauty never blemishing
You are the song that we sing when we're worshipping
You're word is nourishing and You're kingdom ever flourishing
Eternal never finishing, never ever diminishing
I'm relishing my relationship I'm daily cherishing
Through fellowship my thirsty soul You're replenishing
Lord, because You're just sin and lust You'll be punishing
Astonishing, how man rejects the admonishing
But knees will be knocking, hard nuts will be cracking and trembling
All high heels You'll be leveling
Mans long list of short comings You'll be measuring and threatening
Over drawn accounts You'll be settling
Prodigal sons and lost souls You'll be beckoning and tethering
And then will welcome them into the bretherin
E'Miner: Lord release Your power from on high through our lives
Coz when we grip the mic we want to drop this right
We bring our bodies as a living sacrifice
That the deaf ears might be opened and the blind receive their sight, and recognize,
The way that they can identify with You the Christ who Died, so that we could come into the light
And realise that You took away our sin
The way to You is open we can now freely come within You're Holy veil, Lord,
No more livin stale, Lord
We can know You for ourselves for real, Lord
And be secure in who You are
In everything we do worship You and know that we is cool
That's why we, want to state plainly, the liberty that You have given us by You sovereignty gratefully received
Cross Movement and MOD merge together as one like melody and harmony
A Godly symphony, sounding out the ghetto liturgy
Globally, we bring encouragement to all You're family
Faithfully, we want to serve You side by side with sword and trowel
Till before You're throne on both our bended knees we take our bow
Repeat Chorus
Lord we declare humbly that You are here
We recognize ya
We raise our praise to Your name
Hallelujah
We come to represent You with no shame
Because we love ya
There's nobody else who is above ya
The Pilgrim: Lord I thank You that to us Gentiles who sat in the darkness You brought us light
Through Christ
No less, sitting in the shadow of death, Lord this world is a mass grave, a tomb headed for doom, give me room
Spreading from the left to the right, no depth or no height, holding forth the word of life yo
Takin this game to the street, kicking tradition to the kerb, enlightening those who never heard bringing the word, faithfully spittin the truth, we're cuttin them loose, the sceptics providin them proof yo
We aint timid and scared, we're fully prepared, we're ready and keen 1Peter 3:15
Me and my team hit targets and getting annoyed, while The Word of God is accurate it never returns void
And if you're looking for Guns we ain't carryin, but I've got a Bible and some tracks in my hand you understand.
E'Miner: Lord People wrestle You and try to fling You off like Dr Spock
Instead of gripping You like Jacob
Truly You are in this place and they know it not
Like Clarke Gable, Frankly my dear the mans don't give a... what!?! Do they know not, that they're headed for that hot spot and when their flesh rots, they will still be burning non-stop?
We try to reason, but they treat us like we're talkin treason
Gwanning (going on) like they is the cream of the crop
So we use the hip-hop, to preach non-stop, rinse the Bible from bottom to top & Blaze the Word till we drop
Because we can't stop makin it clear, that You are here and You truly care, and our burdens You'll truly bare,
But beware because we know You're judgement is drawin near, if we turn from sin, You'll bring us in, out of despair,
You made the way clear
Yet it does makes You're heart bleed, to see the gals dem bunnin the weed, driven by greed, mans out sowin wild seed, yet more wild flowers a breed, when will the people take heed,
Tell me when will the people them see Lord You're here full of Grace and Mercy, us Your keen to receive,
Tell me when will the people them see, Lord You're here and You're wrath is ready if we refuse to believe.
Repeat Chorus
Lord we declare humbly that You are here
We recognize ya We raise our praise to Your name
Hallelujah
We come to represent You with no shame because we love ya
There's nobody else who is above ya
