Intro:
Ey yo, this is Francis M.
We got Loonie from the Stick Figgas
We offer this song to the Lord
Thank you Lord for saving me
And for taking care of me and my fam
Merciful father, let your spirit cover me
Guide me, teach me to love you more each day
Dear Jesus, show me the light
Verse 1 (Francis M.):
God is good in spite of all the problems we face
Despite the bitter taste left in our mouths we say grace
Sing songs of praise to the almighty the most high
The giver of life, the way, the truth, and the light
The light and the truth came bask in his goodness
And in the peace that he brings
And you know I could just
Go on and on and write rhymes about the vine
About the miracles that happened, he turned the water into wine
In this life of mine, he was always there to shine
Took me out of the dark when all I needed was a sparkle
Of my sickness, my higher power was my witness
When I bottomed out, he was there to bail me out
Like a lost sheep, I was helpless and afraid
But Jesus embraced me in spite of all the sins that I made
The true shepherd takes care of his flock
And he will greet you at the door each time you knock
Chorus (2x):
Jesus, Lord on my knees I kneel
Unworthy, but only say the word and I'm healed
Seek, and you shall find the purpose in life
The true meaning isn't found anywhere but in Christ
Verse 2 (Loonie):
I wanna talk to Jesus in a _____
I wanna thank him coz he watches me wherever I'm at
When I'm at my worst, he sees the best in me, saved me
He tested me, if I can face my destiny
Bravely, he turned water into wine
He turned words to money,
He taught me how to rap and how to make my verses funny
He believes in me, and in return I believe in him
I feel rejuvenated everytime I receive in him
Coz even if I sinned before he had forgiven me
And given me another chance to forgive my enemies
He took the hatred from my heart and made it sacred
I make it a point we pray first before we break bread
To thank him for the blessings and the lessons he taught
Put down the smith and wesson, prayer is the weapon he brought
So when I feel lost, I just pull out the holy bible
To read about Jesus, my one and only idol
Repeat chorus
Verse 3 (Loonie):
Like a busy bee, greedy with the honey you take
You want more, no matter how much money you make
Maybe that is why we can never be satisfied
With temporary, momentary happiness that passes by like passerbys
During this journey we call life
Are we even contented with the woman we call wife?
Then why do we risk our marriage for one happy night?
What good is a lot of food if you don't have the appetite?
Verse 4 (Francis M.):
Take the kids for granted, and you never spend time with them
You'd rather be out with your so-called friends
And then money is spent like there's no tomorrow
Booze and drugs won't take away the pain and the sorrow
Take me out of the dark, my Lord
I don't wanna be alone each time I'm _____
You can't have peace ______ of your muscle
Jesus is the missing piece of your puzzle
Repeat chorus
