How can I begin to write a rap that recites your righteousness and might; your goodness and light? Lord give me the words that express a heart spurred by your love learned, your grace I never earned.  I'm wicked yet cured through your love undeserved. So I turn to you enamored by all that you've done.  Died on my behalf into the tree of life I've been grafted.  Death is no longer laughing because the power of Christ is counteracting the death of my flesh and world interactions.  Spiritual satisfaction found in Christ.  I'm nowhere near perfect but love has penetrated my life.  God is working in me to move me beyond being selfishly nice.  It's my God that makes me upright, so I dwell in the scripture to engage in the words that He writes.

On the Lord I wait, my life I stake on the living for the Lord's sake.  Help me to continually seek you every way, every day of my week.  You give strength to the weak, wisdom to the foolish, and that's what we are and yet you still choose to use us.  Gifts you gave by grace, help us not to abuse it.  May the songs of my heart give you glory and honor through the music of a thankful man.  I am what I am, saved by your hand that reached to me and now i'm so glad to be yours.  Encore, may we be ready when you coming knocking on the door.  May we be awake and hear it, may our lives be filled with the power of your Holy Spirit.  Reject the flesh, reflect the message, the good news of your saving grace, profess your loving lessons.

There's no good, no not one apart from Jesus Christ, the perfect Son.  I can do no good thing apart from Him that has chose to begin the good work within.  This life once dedicated to sin and strife until my eyes were opened to the light of Jesus Christ and now all I can do is offer myself as a living sacrifice.  I give thanks to you who helps me to fight the good fight until the day I die, separated from flesh with Christ i'll unite all because He paid the price to make me justified, so that I appear as if I never sinned.  If i'm saved by faith through grace then I cannot boast about anything apart from my weakness.  Lord help me to live a life of truth and meekness.  I look on with wide eyes and I realize you've left me speechless.

Reliant

Sample: My boy, we're pilgrims in an unholy land

Let the rhymes roll real and quick, feelings i'm dealing with, even though I'm not feelin' it I know a life sold to emotions will toss you around like a raging ocean. Boy, I better not be boastin', slow and steady but I don't wanna be caught coastin. Holy Spirit host in me, the Word of God the potion to set me free to walk righteously. Strength to the weak now I speak triumphly, stomach grumbles, flesh in the grave, death to glutony.

Sample: Well, I've wrestled with reality for 35 years doctor and I'm happy to say I've finally won out over it.

I may not feel it but I still believe in the truth I see. My soul cleaves to dust, revive me according to your word before I self-destruct. Remind me of your glory, it's you I love. Awaken my soul from snoring to the cross I run so one day I'll hear good and faithful servant well done. So help to serve even when my emotions cause me to swerve, help me to learn all that i've gained I could never deserve, livin so hurt till my heart heard the truth of life, I became humbled and cured.

Sample: It's same ol' story it's not what you know it's who you know! You know this is how you get places, socializing with the higher ups!

I may feel dry and wonder why, don't matter get the step ladder, I'm going up when I die. Living for God now I'm living alive instead of living a lie, my oh my! Emotions help me to shove them aside, rooted in the word so ain't nothing gonna break my stride. I got to keep on moving, infusing God in me, it's Him i'm choosing because He is all knowing. While me, i'm clueless, don't know what I'm doing but if I'm living by flesh I'm usually losing.

Sample: Sorry about this, I know it's a bit silly. It can only be attributable to human error.

Live by the Truth

Who am I that God should give me so much?  Rush to His love when I get out of touch.  Been saved and redeemed it's like I'm livin' a dream cause I got God in my heart if you know what I mean.  Glean grace and His goodness, I never understood this bliss that makes me list all the reasons a poor man could feel so rich.  Help me to persist to exist for your sake.  Negate my flesh and resonate so I can cultivate a deeper understanding for you my one and only soul mate.  You've given this man so much reason to live for you in and out of season.  Inundated with words the Spirit is speaking, truth of my life I'm preaching, life so rich when it's God i'm seeking.

I ain't nothing less than blessed x 3
I confess
I ain't nothing less than blessed

Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life and I will reside in the house of the Lord forever.  Ain't nothing better than giving and living for the one who unfettered the pained chains of this dying debtor.  Death interceptor, thank you God for being my protector through the stormy weather.  You are ever faithful to this man you had no faith but all of my mistakes couldn't unshake your unshakeable love and grace.  I can't imagine how much I made your heart break everyday I was living for death's sake.  You touched my heart, made me whole, gave warmth to a heart that had become so cold and now I know this life I want you to hold and control.

I ain't nothing less than blessed x 3
I confess
I ain't nothing less than blessed

Thank you for my loving family, the friends and love that surrounds me.  Astounded and confounded cause I ain't done nothing to deserve all of these gifts.  I lift my heart up to you and look to the sky, El Shaddai, Adonai.  My master so kind, existed before space and time.  Time after time I find when I'm aligned with you I'm no longer confined to the flesh and mind that so often blind me to the burdens of humankind.  My humanity binds me to the curse that brings out the worst of me but I burst free when I seek you faithfully.  It's faith that brings me to you and makes my heart sing cause I teem with joy, God your the real McCoy I enjoy.

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ"
Ephesians 1:3

Blessed

Day brand new, what am I to do?  Use the Word to take my cue so I can be used by my Lord who knew me before I was ever even a thought.  I was taught to place my faith in the unshakeable rock.  I ought naught place my faith in my mind that oft-en gets carried away like an astronaut when I waste time cause I chase signs that lead me astray from the great divine.  I rather stay and find renewed strength to push on.  My God I love to keep in my sight, fight the good fight, so I might step out of the stark darkness and live in the light.

Our live are but a mist, appears for a little then it vanishes.  What advantages do we gain by gambling on temporary bliss.  Like contest candidates we win nothing cause we're to busy looking for something other than God's loving.  That's like looking for fulfillment in a muffin when you could be eating steak.  That's a mistake when you could stake your life on living for the Lord's sake.  Lord help not to deviate from what you dictate cause I know your ways are good.  Help to move fast past the mistakes of my childhood.

Blessed is the man whose delight is in the Lord's law.  Sometimes we need to withdraw from it all, stand in awe of the Lord as he works through all of our flaws.  So often I'm droppin the ball, this life I give with the intent that God will overhaul all that was installed from the fall.  Jealousy, envy, strife cuts through my heart with a knife.  Greed, deceit, pride inside hold me back form living a more fulfilled life so I give it all to Christ cause his blood will suffice.  He paid the price for my sins through His loving sacrifice so I can be with Him living in Paradise.

Precious Time

I'm captivated, motivate, infatuated, cause I'm captured by God's love, captured by the one above, was once bound by sin, till the sound of love seeped in, I push on runnin towards the God that's lovin me, the Son in me, the one I seek cause He's won over my heart and dreams, it seems my life teems with the love of God that sings out of my inner being, the telephone of my heart is ringing, pick up it's the love of Christ reaching out to me so I listen, there's a fire in my heart cooking up the bread of life in my soul's kitchen.

You've got me running at all your love, you've got me. These feelings for your I can't control. x3

I can't control this love that's infused through you that choosed this sinful man who abused the truth he knew livin like he had nothing to lose now all he can do is live for you, Jesus Christ your grace and love will suffice, capture my heart, cardiac arrest, sentenced to life, master surgeon cut deep into my heart with a knife, removing the sinful cancer, Lord you're my only answer, my righteous romancer, what I sowed in tears your love reaped into joy as I stand here.

You've got me running at all your love, you've got me. These feelings for your I can't control. x3

You've got me runnin, addicted to your lovin, satisfies the hunger of my soul, spirit within now I'm whole, Lord I give you control, I let go of all that I am as I sink into the depths of all that you are, my heart captured, enraptured, time lapse here in your presences, a heart once fractured sewn together through the blessing of your love so great, awe inspiring, my jaw firing off fireworks of words of the love that burns inside a man who did nothing to earn the truth of your love that I've learned.

You've got me running at all your love, you've got me. These feelings for your I can't control. x3


Love from Above

Live by faith, trust God will make me into a moldable tool luckily for me cause i'm a fallible fool, foolishly failing, freed by the cross and the nailing of my sins, saved so sweetly by my savior beginning and end, I can't even begin to comprehend the propensity of God's immensity, life was never meant to be this way so I pray that God will fill me a fresh, refresh me every brand new day, I want to walk by faith, saved by grace, living sacrifice cause the price is paid, how can I grumble and complain, trust in the rock Jesus heal and tame this man who is blind and lame, set aside my pride and live for your glory and fame.

The just shall walk by faith so I'm gonna do what it takes - walk by faith
The just shall walk by faith so I'm gonna do what it takes x2

Abraham, my man, righteousness received all because he believed in God who is ever faithful to supply for all of our needs so God will always be all that we need, the Lord is my portion says my soul therefore in Him i'll trust, cleanses the corrupt, outside of spacetime my God knows what's up, I know I know nothing, 23 years compared to the infinite how can I begin to pretend I know something, that's foolish fronting, instead I'm God loving, He's all that I Has-bro like an EZ Bake Oven, saved me from my sin and it's natural repercussions so now I'm living by faith and God's loving instruction.

The just shall walk by faith so I'm gonna do what it takes - walk by faith
The just shall walk by faith so I'm gonna do what it takes

Without faith it's impossible to please God, He's a rewarder to those who seek not the kingdom of Earth but instead invest  in the kingdom of Heaven, battling sins stronghold like Joshua at Jericho in seven days all through faith that God was gonna do what it takes cause He's got the power and strength so arise and wake, live life with the ingredients of obedience to our God who parted the Red Sea with just the faith of a man, if we stand in the faith the size of a mustard seed in us God can use us despite our weaknesses, Lord reach in us, take out any doubt, live life fully through all of it's sequences.

Walk by Faith

Behold the Lord standing at the door, knocking what's stopping you from unlocking? Luke warm, prideful Christian bad form, living like your torn, not reborn. Reliant on your works, instead dead cause you haven't been rebirthed.  No Christ, no life, no girth, us last, Christ first, only way the Church works.

Set me afire, set me ablaze, living for Christ every day.

When I think I'm all that that's whack, I'm not.  Only reason I'm living God given life I've been bought by Christ blood so though my sins were as scarlet I'm white as snow.  Oh no, am I such a fool?  Trying to follow the law as my salvation tool.  Don't work when I'm always breaking the rules.  Nonsense, I've been saved by grace through faith, Christ blood recompense.

Set me afire, set me ablaze, living for Christ every day.

I was once blind but now I see, eye salve received, now I believe that it's Christ I need.  Anything good I do is Christ in me.  Yet this leaven got me puffed up, only reason I'm living is cause Christ took that cup.  So how can I boast?  All glory to God with His heavenly hosts.  Without Christ I'm like bread in the morning - toast.

Set me afire, set me ablaze, living for Christ everyday.

Thank you for these white robes, I know it's all cause you've atoned for all the times I've waged war against you heavenly throne yet you've shown grace and mercy to this man once out of place and thirst.  You've embraced and heard me even though I'm so unworthy.  On the cross you hung so that you could call me your son even after the disaster of all I've done.

Set me afire, set me ablaze, living for You everyday.
