Mary, Mary, can I go too?
This one thing I will vow ya
I'd rather die than to live without ya
Mary, Mary, where you goin' to?
Mary, Mary, tell me truly
What did I do to make you leave me?
Whatever it was I didn't mean to
You know I never would try and hurt ya
Mary, Mary, where you goin' to?
What more, Mary, can I do
To prove my love is truly yours?
I've done more now
Than a clear-thinkin' man would do
Mary, Mary, it's not over
Where you go, I will follow
'Til I win your love again
And walk beside you but until then
Mary, Mary, where you goin' to?
Mary, Mary, where you goin' to?
Mary, where you goin' to?
Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary
Where you goin' to?
Oh Mary,where you goin' to?

"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
[Run]
Had a fly girl Flo, called her honey
Next thing she spent up all my money
?? debt, you and your girl's dizzy
Stopped movin crack but you're still gettin pissy
You could call me everyday God sent
like you was Lois Lane and I was Clark Kent
I spend and I spend and you spent and you spent
Now my house with a mouse is a roach with a tent
"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
[D.M.C.]

Lookin for you, but you keep duckin

So just be quiet and don't say NUTTIN

"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
[Run]
Now..
This girl Mary I knew so well
I met her on the road in a fly hotel
High on the heels and never failed
(Clubs and the pubs is where she dwelled)
Story about Mary was well to tell
She seemed to scheme for a dream to sell
She spent a night locked in a cell
I knew Mary well cause she +Raising Hell+
"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
[D.M.C.]
It's not Mary who was quite - contrary
Talkin bout Mary who was always in a - hurry
The things she needed were necessary
She did not need, a busted cherry
True and blue just like a blueberry
Ask if she's crazy and I'll say very
Livin in a house that's out on the prairie
I worry about Mary cause Mary is scary!
"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN

Expecting for something to happen for you

Nowadays everybody wants to be in control
Tryna be leader when they've never even really followed
Got no information and no direction and way too much pride
When it ain't that hard to just ask the lord to be your huide
[hook]

One love and one heart, one god who gives it away
Most folks they don't wanna believe that today
But i'll tkae your love and i'll give my love all to you completely cuz
I trust in you and i believe that you know what's best for

[bridge]
I will always trust in the fact that
You got me in the palm of your hand
Use me how you will
No matter how i feel
Cuz there's no way that
I could know you put the sun in the sky
I could know you hung the moon for the night
Well that wouldn't be right so i'm saying

Keep moving, keep moving

Yo from the Brooklyn Bridge to the woods of Holly
I roll like Tonto, Houncho Kimosabee
Butta's still here
No doubt I'm thankful Mommy
Life's beautiful
I'm laying back like a cuticle (Whoo!)
Past behind me, present look pleasant
Future the bomb
Far beyond I'm headed
Big Butta J-A-Y uh
Oh my Lord
Ain't nobody touching
So I still ain't tried
[Mary Mary]
Back when I was a little child it wasn't easy
Mama didn't always have a job
To take care of me
But I love her cause she tried so hard to do her best
But when she fell short God did all the rest
That's why...
I sing about what He's done
For me it's been so much
That I couldn't even tell if I tried
I sing just to let the whole world know
That we all got something to
Be grateful for so lift your voice
Couldn't possibly remember all
The things You've done
In my life I've seen some weary days
But with You I've overcome
Why wouldn't I say yes to You
When You gave Your life for me
Now I'll give mine to You
And I'm gone tell everybody
I sing about what He's done
For me it's been so much
That I couldn't even tell if I tried
I sing just to let the whole world know
That we all got something to
Be grateful for so lift your voice
You don't know like I know
What He's done for me
(What He's done for me)
Take a look at your life and you too will see
(You will see)
Ain't no way we've come this far all by ourselves
(By ourselves)
Many blessing great and small
Now let's take some time and that Him for them all
[BBJ]
Big Bro J-A-Y, you know I stay fly with my husky self
Mustard seed faith manifest mustard seed wealth
(Tis the season)
To open your vocals and go loco for do lo
I'm mad grateful cause the Merciful is faithful
Trials come but it's all good cause it makes you
It's not contrary, with the way Mary Mary
Carry these notes Baby Dubb
(Coast to coast)
Who rocks the party?
(BBJ rocks the party)
Who gets you hype?
(Mary Mary all night)
Ice shine bright like stars at twilight
Mary Mary get you wide open show you right
B to the B J-A-Y you know who
Hate to say I told you so but I told you
When it comes to this groove you gots
To get up off the wall and hit the dance floor boo
I sing about what He's done
For me it's been so much
That I couldn't even tell if I tried
I sing just to let the whole world know
That we all got something to
Be grateful for so lift your voice
The situation is telling me
I should believe all hope is lost
But from the looks of things
I should be crying
But because I know in whom I trust
My heart tells me to rejoice
[Chorus:]
Whatever you want
I got it
Whatever you need
I got it
Its all in me
I got it
I got it
[repeat]
Is life failing me
Times seem to be so hard
Everything crumbles in my face
One dollar short,one day late
Then I remember that maybe
I just forgot to pray
And when I call on You
All You have to say
[chorus]
This morning I picked up a paper
I read about tragedy I stopped and
I realized that it could've been me oh oh
That could've been my mother
Or maybe even my big brother
But you kept them just like you kept me
I want to tell you that
[Chorus:]
God has smiled on me
He has set me free
God has smiled on me
He has been good to me
Now I've been through some things that
I thought were unnecessary
Were way too much to carry
All by myself
Yeah! But you gave me strength to
Make it
though I thought I couldn't take it
Feels so good to know that you care
Yeah, yeah, yeah, God
[Chorus]
So glad I know you
Glad you're my friend
Whenever I need you
You're always near
You don't have to be so good to me
But you keep on smiling
[Chorus]
I had enough heartache and enough headaches
I've had so many ups and downs
Don't know how much more i can take
See i decided that i cried my last tear yesterday
Either i'm going to trust you or i may as well walk away
'cause stressing don't make it better
Don't make it better, no way
See i decided that i cried my last tear yesterday
Yesterday, i decided to put my trust in you
Yesterday, i realized that you will being me through
There ain't nothing to hard for my god, no
Any problems that i have
He's greater than them all, so
I decided that i cried my last tear yesterday
I am god
[verse 1]
Thinking to yourself that you're by yourself
Yet and still you're talking loud
But just tell me who you talking to if you don't believe i'm around
Said i'll never leave, so you're never alone
Even when you feel you are
I'm right here holding your hand
But still you think i'm way too far
[hook]
What do i gotta do to make you understand that i want what's best for you and i always have?, but
Maybe you're confused about who i really am
Stand still and know i'm god
[verse 2]
You look at your life and your wonder
Why your situation never changes
You blame it on them
You blame it on me
Maybe it's you thinking the wrong way
You should close your eyes open them again
Maybe you'll see that i gave you life
And another chance to give me a chance
To take your wrong and make it right
[hook]
[bridge]
Maybe you are only listening to what you wanna here
If you follow my direction
Everything would be so clear
I'm the answer, the solution
To every question that you ask
Only way you made it this far
Is because i carried you here so
[hook]
[rap]
It was once upon a time not long ago
Lived a little black boy in the middle of the ghetto
Pretty good kid but he always found trouble
Inner city life it ain't hard to find trouble
No income in the home you find struggle
2 years struggling it's no puzzle
He hit the block hard and found him a hustle
Burned the wrond bridge and now he needs muscle
He tried to let it go but the streets don't forgive
I guess they ain't heard of live and let live
But after going round and round he broke it down finally found out
That only god can save him now
[hook]
Save me now, please save me now, save me now, please save me now
I'm on my knees, down at the floor
You're the one i need oh lord
Save me now
[verse 1]
I heard the story many times before/still i'm wondering
How in the world did i get here/and what am i doing
Took the ring and acted like i do/without the ceremony
Now i got three little ones and i'm/hurting and i'm lonely
Threw away my dreams when i left school/now i'm 22 never should've choose him over you
[hook]
[bridge]
Take me away/i don't wanna stay here
I wanna go/back to the beginning
To that place/where love is forever
You and me together
Lord will you please
[hook]
I gotta get myself together, cuz i got someplace to go
And i'm praying when i get there, i see everyone i know
I wanna go to heaven, i wanna go to heaven, said i wanna go to heaven, i wanna go to heaven, do you wanna
[verse 1]
Can you picture a place where there a smile on every face
And all the worry, all the stressing, all the pressure's been erased
Walking down a street that's golden,
Angles singing perfect weather
Everybody's got a mansion, y'all it just don't get no better
I wanna go
[hook]
[verse 2]
The only way i can explain it, is that in life we go through changes
Though we know it serves a purpose, still sometimes it just seems
Worthless
But this race that i am running, whether i run it fast or slow
Long as i just keep on running, i'm gonna make it there someday
I know
[hook]
[bridge]
There's a place for us/one day i wanna see it
There's a place for us/and you may not believe it
But i'm just living my life/so i can live again
Everyday i'm getting ready/'cause i wanna make it in
[hook]
[hook]
I'm a believer, tellin' you i really believe
I'm a believer, even though i've never seen
I'm a believer, look at my life and you will see
I'm a believer, how can you not believe?
I'm a believer, every word he says to me
I'm a believer, cuz he gave me my liberty
I'm a believer, now and forever i will be
I'm a believer, how can you not believe?
[verse 1]
We got home late one night from service
Something wasn't right, momma was nervous
She said we're staying at your auntie's house tonight
Cuz something in my spirit ain't right
Just as soon as we all went to sleep
Momma got a call from the police saying 'your house is on fire'
We were sad, but alive god spared our lives
[hook]
[verse 2]
On the highway minding my business
Another car was tryna get by
So i put my foot on the brakes and
My car flipped upside down
I cried, 'lord have mercy on me
Take the car but save my life'
I walked away no scars, no pain, nothing broken
So now i testify
[hook]
[bridge]
Somebody, somewhere out there is watching us, and taking care of every little thing we need, and some
People still don't believe, but i have seen too many things, tell me what will make you see that he's able
To be all you need and more
[hook]
[verse 1]
There's a name so powerful words can't describe
When spoken demons tremble
And all creation must bow down
[b-section]
Awesome are your ways
Everyday the same
And majesty is your name
[hook]
And i/give you all my worship
And i/wanna sing your praise
And i/long to honor you more than yesterday
[verse 2]
There is not any other who can compare
To your word your life
Your love's ultimate sacrifice
[b-section]
[hook]
[bridge]
You're everything no one else can be
You filled every space that was empty
Lord you are everything to me
[hook]
Can't promise you no pain no tears
Can't say you'll never be lonely again
My friend
But you see there's a remedy
There's someone who's got
Everything you need
And if you hear what I'm saying
I'm sure you'll agree that-
[Chorus:]
Trouble ain't gon' be here everyday
Even though sometimes it seems like it won't go away
After you've done all that you know how
Just to keep from breaking down
Just believe it's gonna get much better
After awhile
Sometimes I sit back and I think about
Where I've been and where I am
Right now
See I wasn't quite sure you could
Hear me calling
But you were there to catch me
When I was falling
So I know
[Chorus]
Oh sometimes we may just want to cry
Then you tell me it's gonna be alright
You can't go through life
Living problem free
But you got to keep the faith
And you got to believe
So the next time you're feeling
A little frustration
And you going through
A bad situation
Remind yourself that it won't last for long
'Cause soon it will be over and you'll be moving
Cause
[Chorus]
There's something in your yesterday
That's keeping you away from him
Making you believe what you've done
He won't forgive
Telling you that you're just too far
From him
But there is something he wants you
To know
That there's no road that you can travel
To a place that's too far
[Chorus:]
He's so close he can hear you breathing
He's so near he can wipe your tears
Mend your heart, he knows it's
Been broken
He's standing with his arms wide open
For so long he's been waiting,
Everyday anticipating
For you to realize that he's so close to you
Everybody knows sometimes we all
Make mistakes
And when you try do what's right,
Wrong gets in the way
You feel you're just a failure and you
Can't forgive yourself
But God can make it better if you only
Ask for help
There's no road that you can travel
To a place that's too far
[Chorus]
There's no road that you can travel
To a place that's too far
[Chorus]
[Little girl:] Hey Erica and Tina can
sing a song about little girls for me, please
She was just 13 and I just don't think
That she ever seen her own beauty
She didn't think she'd be anything
And that little girl, she used to me be
[Chorus:]
Little girl, little girl
Wonder are you listening
Little girl, little girl
Struggling with your confidence
Little girl, little girl
God made you so beautiful
Little girl, little girl
I just thought that you should know
Sometimes you feel like you don't fit in
'cause you don't look like
all your other friends
Got your own thing going on
Girl you are so unique you are just
That way that
God intended for you to be
[Chorus]
Tell you what you should do
When you get up
In the morning look yourself in the
Mirror and say
I love me
Even with all of your flaws and all of your downfalls
Just be your best 'cause to him you
Already are
[Chorus]
[Chorus:]
In the morning you'll be alright
In the morning the sun's gonna shine
In the morning no clouds in the sky
When it's dark in your life just wait for the
daylight
Someone tell me what's wrong
Why my nights last so long
It's gettin' hard to believe
You can hear me
Then you give me a sign
That You heard me pray
You let me know
This dark night won't last always
[Chorus]
So many ups and downs
You don't know where to start
So many nights you cried
Life was breakin' your heart
It may seem real hard
Ain't no help in sight
But don't you worry
About it tonight 'cause
[Chorus]
There's gonna be a day
It's gonna get cloudy
You can't see clear {You can't see clearly, no}
But don't you stop prayin'
Prayin' for the day
When the sun will shine (Shine) again
{Ooh...ooh...ooh...}
[Chorus]
Whatever you need for him to do
He will do it if you give him the chance
And I am telling he's already proud
That he can do anything,
So give him the chance
Now there's been so many times
I called on him
Regardless of the circumstance
He was there
So now I devoted my life to serving him
It's me for him 'cause all the time he
Was there for me
It doesn't matter what the need
No there's no limit, I'll give you anything
All I want is you to trust me
Through my love I'll set you free
[Chorus:]
He said I'll go wherever
You want me to go
He said I'll do whatever you want me to do
Now it is a must I testify and
Let everybody know
I live because of you and they can have the same life
That I choose
And when they ask me now
I'll say it's because of you
[Chorus]
Whatever you want from me
What else can I do to make you see
To prove to you I'm everything
That you'll ever need
What else do I have to say
To show you more clearly
That I am, that I am
The beginning and the end
Yes I'm you, everything
You don't know God is the truth, he is
And everything that he said he'll do
He did new whips, new cribs
A few hits, I'm blessed with ice
Blessed with life on top of all that
Yo I'm blessed with Christ
So his heart must be
As big as Texas right
I aint thinking of the change or
Thinking of the blames
Think of the range,
I ain't even thinking the same
When I think of his name yo
I'm thinking of praise
Wit Fats and Darkchild so close in wit
Mary Mary ah yeah
You know then
But we talking about Christ
Get to know him come on-
[Chorus]
When the weight of the world seems
Like it's on your shoulders
Bogging you down
When you feel like you're stuck
In one place
And you just can't move it around
When it seems like you're so backed up
Into a corner that there's no way out
Just remember that you've got a friend
Who's watching and he knows all about
[so you gotta let it go]
Give it up, gotta let it go, give it up
Gotta let it go
When you've shed so many tears
Until you
Just can't cry no more
When your confidence is gone
And of yourself you're not very sure
When you're at your lowest point
And you just wish it all would end
Just remember that you're not alone
And you can always turn to him
Give it up, gotta let it go, give it up,
Gotta let it go
When you've done all that you can do
And yet it's still too much to bear
Then it's time to turn it over
To the only one who knows ya
Better than youself
Give it up, gotta let it go, give it up,
Gotta let it go
He had many of bad habits
He was trying hard to break
And every time he thought it got better
He would make another mistake
Though he knows he's far from perfect
He is trying to live right
He asked me to ask You Father
Would You hear his prayer tonight
He said you tell Him I really need Him
I really want to change
The next time you talk to God
Would you please mention my name
Tell Him I really love Him
And although it's been a while
Ask Him for me am I still His child
I asked her how she was doing
She said not so good lately
Then I told her girl you know
You can always talk to me
She said these days haven't been so happy
Haven't had much peace of mind
Now I know I should be praying
But I have had much time
She said you tell Him I really need Him
I really want to change
The next time you talk to God
Would you please mention my name
Tell Him I really love Him
And although it's been a while
Ask Him for me am I still His child
I know the answer to your question
Yes the Father still loves you
Sometimes when you have childern
You don't always like what they do
So when go to your heavenly Father
Say Lord I love You
And when you ask Him for forgiveness
This is what He'll say to you
I sent a message in the word
When the birds sang their song
And when you went to sleep last night
I told the moon shine all night long
Just wanted you to talked to me
And I know it's been a while
And to answer the question
You are still my child my child.
No, No it ain't the way it used to be and
Yea, yes, it may be hard to believe
When, When I think about all my blessings
I, oh I'm telling you God's been good to me
Growing up in a real big family
I had to a take what I could get
There was always a sister or brother
I had to share every thing with
I had to share my room, wear hand-me-downs
'Cause we didn't have much money
But now there's not much I long for
Telling you God's been good to me
No, No it ain't the way it used to be and
Yea, yes, it may be hard to believe
When, When I think about all my blessings
I, oh I'm telling you God's been good to me
You may think I've got it easy
And that's the way it's always been
But that's not really my story
I'll tell you how it all happened
I had to work real hard to get here
But I didn't do it all alone
Someone was watching over me
And that is why I sing this song
No, No it ain't the way it used to be and
Yea, yes, it may be hard to believe
When, When I think about all my blessings
I, oh I'm telling you God's been good to me
If I began to count my blessings
I wouldn't know where to begin
God has done so much for me
He's been much more that a friend
He's been protector and provider
Though I didn't always know
Always been right beside me
And without him where would I be
No, No it ain't the way it used to be and
Yea, yes, it may be hard to believe
When, When I think about all my blessings
I, oh I'm telling you God's been good to me
Lonely one at young so broken hearted
Traveling down the rigid road of life
Using pharmaceutical extractions
To find their paradises
Finds the high but comes down
Feeling lower
Gets down on their knees and
Starts to pray looking up to heaven for the answer
To hear a voice that says
[Chorus:]
You will know troubled heart
You'll know
Problems have solutions, trust and
I will show, you will know
Troubled heart you'll know
Every life has reasons for I made it so
Single parents trying to raise
Their children
But they would much rather not alone
Reaches out to find that
Special someone
To make their house a home
Finds someone but no one is
The right one
Gets down on their knees and
Starts to pray
Looking up to heaven for the answer
They hear a voice that says
[Chorus (a few differences with the chorus section above)]
You will know lonely heart
You'll know problems have solutions, trust and
I will show, you will know
Lonely heart you'll know
Every life has reasons for I made it so
You'll know
I never said a word
But I know my Father heard me
I stopped talking about it
Cause now it's time to shout it
Fifty thousand problems
Wnd words couldn't solve them
Chorus
That's the sound of victory and
That's the sound of no defeat and
That's the sound of holding on and
That's the sound of staying strong, oh
I can't do nothing but scream what I'm feeling
God knows my heart and I know that He hears it
Yeah
I never said a word
But I know my Father heard me
I stopped talking about it
Cause now it's time to shout it
Fifty thousand problems
And words couldn't solve them
Chorus
That's the sound of victory and
That's the sound of no defeat and
That's the sound of holding on and
That's the sound of staying strong, oh
I can't do nothing but scream what I'm feeling
God knows my heart and I know that He hears it
Yeah
I think I wanna holla
Is it alright if I holla?
Sometimes I need to holla
Hey, holla
Now can you hear me if I moan
Is it alright if I moan?
Mmm, moan
Mmm, moan
Somebody saved?
I love the Lord
He heard my cry
And pitied every
Every groan
Every groan 8x
Yeah!
Yo, all the things we stress about every day
Glad to have one thing that just don't change
You know I'm here always forever
Don't matter what happens
I'm gonna stay the same
Your life; you live it, don't waste it trippin'
My love - I'll give it, and it won't ever change
Question after question
Always wonderin' and guessin'
Is there anyone that will love me for me?
Someone who will help me
Lead, guide and direct me
That's just what I need
And I heard you so clearly say
You know I'm here always forever
Don't matter what happens
I'm gonna stay the same
Your life; you live it, don't waste it trippin'
My love - I'll give it, and it won't ever change
(Repeat)
Want a different life?
Don't like the one you have?
You tried and wished
And all that you did don't seem to help
Can't be mad at the world
Someone else is in those shoes
Then a voice said believe in me
‘Cause I believe in you
‘Cause a little faith and a little love
And a little hope in the One above
Is all you really need to make it in this life
So just keep listening to that voice deep inside saying
You know I'm here always forever
Don't matter what happens
I'm gonna stay the same
Your life; you live it, don't waste it trippin'
My love - I'll give it, and it won't ever change
(Repeat)
[verse 1]
What is this that took my life and made it beautiful?
What is this that holds me close and never lets me go?
What is this that tells me better days are yet to come?
It's your love that gives new mercy every morning
Wht is that that gives me peace in every circumstance?
What is this that broke the chains that made me free at last?
All this joy i have there's nowhere i can hide it
It's your loving, i must tell the world about it
[b-section]
Your love has captured me
In ways i can't describe/with mere words
I need so desperately
To be closed to you every minute of my life
[verse 2]
What is this that wipes my tears when life is hard to bear?
What is this that takes my hands and leads me everywhere?
Never leaves me nor forsakes me that's your promise
It's your love and there is nothing else just like it
What is that makes me want to live each day for you?
Even though i can't repay the way you brought me through
What is this that makes me want to keep you smiling?
It's your love, your sweet love that changed my life - yeah
[b-section]
[hook]
Take my heart and make me over
Lord, because i love you
You're my soul, my life my source of everything
The very reason why i live each day in love
I live each day in love with you forever
You know people told me all of my life
True friendship's hard to come by
But I had to find out for myself
Now I've finally come to realize, oh, oh
1 - What a friend we have in Jesus
All of our sins and griefs He'll bare
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
2 - Everything to God in prayer
All my strength in never ending loss
Friends with limited warranties, yea-oh
Until You I never knew a lifetime guaranteed
Friend could really be my reality, oh
Repeat 1
Repeat 2 (5x)

When you say love
You use it so lightly
But when I think of it
This is what comes to me
Loving me, where I am
How I am
Just for who I am
All my good and bad
Sure you think
It's not a possibility
Something so pure it changes me
When after all these years it's still
The same
Just as strong as it was on the first day
[Chorus:]
This love this love
The only love
That comes down from the heavens
([F. Hammond:] why do you love)
Better than mothers, better than
Fathers oh oh oh
This love this love
This love is your love
This love is my love
([F. Hammond:] why do you love)
This love this love
From God the Father
God up in heaven you oughta know
[F. Hammond:]
So you ask, what about me
Sounds real good
But doesn't fit the life I lead
But let me tell you something
There is nothing new under the sun
'n' I don't care what you've done
His heart is or everyone
[Chorus]
Everybody oughta know his love is real
Said you really oughta know
Tell me can you feel
Everybody oughta know
I'm talking to you
Please don't walk away from
[Chorus]
This love this love
[Chorus:]
I'm just ordinary people
Who found extraordinary love
Sometimes it's hard to believe
That God keeps loving me so much
There are so many people I look up to
Used to tell them I wanna be just
Like you
Then God took ordinary me
And gave me a chance
And everyday I gotta thank him for
Where I am
[Chorus]
I looked in the mirror, I saw average
You looked down from heaven, you saw
A gift
Still can't figure out why you
Loved me so but that's what makes
You God
I'll never know 'cause
[Chorus]
Listen to me, I can tell you how it goes
God can take a nobody
Who no one knows
Make 'em more than you ever could be
Ask me how I know, he did it for me
[Chorus]
Lord i'm thankful for my blessings
everything that you gave
Times when danger was around me
My life lord you saved
Where would I be without your love
Where would I be without your grace
You didn't have to do it but I'm glad you did
Can't pretend that what I got
I got it on my own
Every move that i made
Can't say I never been wrong
When I fell you picked me up again
Thought I brought it on myself
I can always depend on you
Whenever I need help
Lord i'm thankful for my blessings
everything that you gave
Times when danger was around me
My life lord you saved
Where would I be without your love
Where would I be without your grace
You didn't have to do it but I'm glad you did
The next time you go to sleep
And you wake up alright
Remeber that he kept you safe
And warm all through the night
Lift your hands and lift them high
And this is what you say
Lord you didn't have to give me
One more day
Lord i'm thankful for my blessings
everything that you gave
Times when danger was around me
My life lord you saved
Where would I be without your love
Where would I be without your grace
You didn't have to do it but I'm glad you did
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
It's plain to see
all that he's done for me
I thank you for everything
I live my life
So I can let the world
know that I am
Lord i'm thankful for my blessings
everything that you gave
Times when danger was around me
My life lord you saved
Where would I be without your love
Where would I be without your grace
You didn't have to do it but I'm glad you did
Chorus
They're here now
But then they're gone (oh)
Where they at-I don't know
Ay, oh they hit the door
That kinda friend I gotta let go
A supa (friend) a supa (friend)
yes sir I got me one of them
a super (friend) a super (friend)
I got me a super friend
No sir there's nothing half way about Him
This world could never be made without Him
no heart no breath no mind
no sun no moon no time
He's something like the best of them
He's nothing like the rest of them
Chorus
'Cause they're here now
But then they're gone (oh)
Where they at-I don't know
Ay, oh they hit the door
That kinda friend I gotta let go
A supa (friend) a supa (friend)
yes sir I got me one of them
a super (friend) a super (friend)
I got me a super friend
Lord I'm so weak and scared to run
What have I done to deserve a life like this
The devil's scared to fight us in the light
He hides in the midst of religion
But I know that my God is listening there for me
There's a greater mission
You're no girl, you're no man, but a plan for greater peace
I'll fight for the light until my flesh falls deceased
I'm fighting the devil, fighting police
And in the church Lord I'm looked at as satan
Cause in my music I curse
But I'm trying to do better and that's the thing that really hurts
All this sex and the drugs in my life mean nothing
When my Superfriend hugs me at night tears come rushing
There's no kryptonite, no dealing no lie that could be told
That can separate the power that you have over my soul
So stuntin is a habit when I'm gripping this mic
Ya'll thinking I'm a pimp but I'm trying to be like Christ
In real life yeah
Chorus
They're here now
But then they're gone (oh)
Where they at-I don't know
Ay, oh they hit the door
That kinda friend I gotta let go
A supa (friend) a supa (friend)
yes sir I got me one of them
a super (friend) a super (friend)
I got me a super friend
He heard me before I made a sound
Caught me before I hit the ground
He knows everything i need
before I tell him anything
Loves me without requirement
Cant see Him but it's evident
He's something like the best of them
Said He's nothing like the rest of them
Chorus
'Cause they're here now
But then they're gone (oh)
Where they at-I don't know
Ay, oh they hit the door
That kinda friend I gotta let go
A supa (friend) a supa (friend)
yes sir I got me one of them
a super (friend) a super (friend)
I got me a super friend
Can't nobody do me like my Superfriend
Can't nobody do me like my Superfriend (no)
Everybody has bad days
When they feel like no one cares
Call your friends in the middle of the night
And they just can't be there
I know someone who's available
And He'll answer every time you call
He won't ever leave you alone
That's just the kind of friend you should know
1 - Anybody know somebody
Someone who will love anybody
Even if they're just a nobody
I know somebody, somebody
Repeat 1
Let me offer you a suggestion
And I'll leave without no doubt
A love that reaches far and wide
That's where my faith lies
Let me tell you why
Cause every time I'm sad and lonely
He comes and puts His arms around me
Cause God's love is the first
And it is the last so if you ask
Repeat 1 (2x)
Oh I got a friend who loves me so
You ask how much I'll never know
And since I've found this love
I want to share it with everyone, oh
Repeat 1 (2x)
Oh do you know?
Oh do you know? Oh!
Repeat 1 fade out
I lay me down tonight
Searching for words 2 say
So many doubts that fight me
Calling out your name
But Lord it's me again
Ready for something new
Please rest upon my heart
Like the morning dew
Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life
Like a flood
Like California shake
What's not like you
I just want a heart like yours
Just like a painter has
Some colors and a brush
Upon the canvas soon
A masterpiece becomes
Please take all that I am
And all that I can be
Transform
Renew restore
Create a better me
Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life
Like a flood
Like California shake
What's not like you

Open up my heart
Fill me with your love
Every single part

Take me from the start
Hold my hand in yours
Let the rain pour
Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life
Like a flood
Like California shake
What's not like you
I just want a heart like yours
Think of your fellow man
Lend him a helping hand
Put a little love in your heart

(Verse 1)
Born into simplicity
Such an average child, you wouldn't think
That his life would bring the greatest change
And by his name every life would be saved
Only One could be Savior, Only One could be King
(Verse 2)
How would you describe a King?
Would he wear a crown and royal things?
Or would he rule the world with a strong hand?
Or give his life for all of man?
Only One could be Savior, Only One could be King
(Verse 3)
Wise men came from far away
Following a star to find the way
To the place where Baby Jesus lay
Just to bring him gifts and give him praise
Only One could be Savior, Only One could be King
Call him Emmanuel, they call him Messiah
The Savior, the Son, He's the King
Born of a virgin
So pure and so perfect, Forever he's worthy, He's the King
There's nobody greater than my precious Savior
Hosanna Forever to the King…
I Know it now that I was such a fool
To turn my back on you
When you had given me everything
I let you you down I know that's true
Now I come to realize that
There are no happy days because
You're not here, I need to know if
There's a chance for me again
All I need is one minute of your time
5 seconds of it may change your mind
10 seconds to make you see
15 to say Lord I'm sorry
For all the things I've done
I'll take 20 more to say that you're the one
9 to think it through
I'll take the one to say I love you
Late a night when I was all alone
You held me in you arms
I strayed away olny to find
There was no place to hide
Lord please hear me when I say
I'll give my life you whatever I've got to do
Show me Lord and I will live for you
All I need is one minute of your time
5 seconds of it may change your mind
10 seconds to make you see
15 to say Lord I'm sorry
For all the things I've done
I'll take 20 more to say that you're the one
9 to think it through
I'll take the one to say I love you
I'm not willing to, to give up on you
Knowing that you've always stood right by me
Until you forgive me my world won't turn
So if you hear my Lord, I'm saying that I'm
sorry
Said I'm sayng that I'm sorry
All I need is one minute of your time
5 seconds of it may change your mind
10 seconds to make you see
15 to say Lord I'm sorry
For all the things I've done
I'll take 20 more to say that you're the one
9 to think it through
I'll take the one to say I love you
One-two, one-two, one

What He's done for me
I get joy just thinking about
What He's done for me
Oh how I wonder when my soul looks black
How I ever made it through my sinful, wicked past
I did everything that I though I wanted till it brought me down
Then God reached out to me
So I'm here to tell you now
I get joy
Repeat 1
I've seen the bottom of the mountain
I've had my share of pain
I've been through so many struggles
I thought I'd never breathe again
So I prayed that God would help me
I couldn't handle it no more
Then He lifted every burden
And that's why I get joy yeah
Repeat 1
Repeat 1 in background
Repeat 1 (2x)

(verse 1)
Question after question, always wondering and guessing, is there anyone that will love me for me.
Someone who will help me, lead, guide and direct me.
That's just what I need, then I heard you so clearly say.
(chorus) 2x
You know I'm here,

I'm gonna stay the same.
Your life, you live it,

Want a diffrent life,

Then a voice said believe in me cause I believe in you.
cause ( a little faith)
and ( a little love )
is all you really need to make it in this life.
So just keep listening to that voice deep inside saying.
(chorus) repeat

You know Im here,

Your life, you live it,
don't waste it trippin,
my love iI'm giving, and it wont ever change
Chorus
It will all be worth it
It will all be worth it
For those who do believe that one day
He will crack the sky
I know you can't see it now
But one day I know you will
We see through a glass, but hardly
A glimpse of future glory, but darkly
Oh, what a day
Imagining what awaits
Amidst all of the criticism
Skeptic views and cynicism
Yet we pray
Just to see Your face
And it will
Chorus
It will all be worth it
It will all be worth it
For those who do believe that one day
He will crack the sky
I know you can't see it now
But one day I know you will
With every passing of a loved one
The many who've gone on before use
Makes your heart ache
Wondering why the delay
But with every heartbeat your faith grows stronger
And the Lord whispers not much longer
Your sould is stirred
And comforted with these words
That it will
Chorus
It will all be worth it
It will all be worth it
For those who do believe that one day
He will crack the sky
I know you can't see it now
You can't see it now, I know
But one day I know you will
When you speak to me
I have direction
but I woke up today
and you ain't said nothing
which way do I go
and tell me what do I do
but I will never know
if I don't get to you
Chorus
so I'm runnin
if I can't walk then I'll crawl
and I'll get up if I fall
gotta get to where you are
so I'm runnin
and I won't stop for nothin
it's hard but it's worth it
when it's you Lord that I want
Lookin and lookin
said I'm just trying to find you
feels like a dead end
I'm so lost without you
but I'm feeling desperate
and I don't wanna feel this
I need a solution
and walking just won't get it
Chorus
so I'm runnin
if I can't walk then I'll crawl
and I'll get up if I fall
gotta get to where you are
so I'm runnin
and I won't stop for nothin
it's hard but it's worth it
when it's you Lord that I want
As the deer pantith for the water
so my soul longeth after thee
you alone are my hearts desire
and I long to worship thee
Chorus
so I'm runnin
if I can't walk then I'll crawl
and I'll get up if I fall
gotta get to where you are
so I'm runnin
and I won't stop for nothin
it's hard but it's worth it
when it's you Lord that I want
I was lost
But you came and found me
You left your thrown
Thinking about me
You bled and died
To show me mercy
You gave your all
Because you saw my need
I was empty
But you came and filled me
I was blinded
But you helped me to see
I was broken
but you made me whole again
I felt like nothing
But you gave me confidence
And I'm filled with so much gratitude
That words are not enough
To explain the magnitude the passion of my love
Chorus
You took everything I was and made me what I am
And with all I am I worship you
You were life
When I was dying
You were strength
When I was crying
You were right
and I was so wrong
A melody
When I had no song
And I'm filled so much with gratitude
That words are not enough
To explain the magnitude the passion of my love
Chorus

But I love her cause she tried so hard to do her best
But when she fell short God did all the rest
That's why...

That I couldn't even tell if I tried
I sing just to let the whole world know
That we all got something to
Be grateful for so lift your voice
Couldn't possibly remember all
The things You've done
In my life I've seen some weary days
But with You I've overcome
Why wouldn't I say yes to You
When You gave Your life for me
Now I'll give mine to You
And I'm gone tell everybody
I sing about what He's done
For me it's been so much
That I couldn't even tell if I tried
I sing just to let the whole world know
That we all got something to
Be grateful for so lift your voice

What He's done for me
(What He's done for me)

Same thing
And the answer is plain
For you and me to see

Born so that we would rise
Born to bring opportunity
To receive the light and life he brings
Christ we worship you majesty

Singing glory, glory, glory, glory
Hark the herald angels sing
Singing glory, glory, glory to the King
Come, all the world awaits
Come into our hearts to stay
Take the old and make it new
Change us all to be just like you

Hark the herald angels sing
Singing glory, glory, glory, glory
Hark the herald angels sing
Singing glory, glory, glory to the King
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the new-born King
In the mall one day I saw you
Walking past
And then I looked again and
You were gone
Well anyway I thought about
When I last talked to you
And how I prayed for you
And how I told you things would be fine
In time you would be okay
If that was you then God bless
[Chorus:]
God bless
You been on my mind
Thought I'd call you up and tell you
God bless ya
And I'm glad you didn't break
Under the pressure
God Bless
I know it's been a while since
We spent time together
God Bless ya
And I'm glad to see you doing
So much better
I remember when you made
A big mistake
And had to go away
and when your time was spent
You did all you could to prove
You had changed
So many people didn't wanna give a
Second chance
But you didn't let that keep you from getting on your feet again
[Chorus:]
I really wanna let you know, I'm so
Happy for ya
Ya didn't let nothing hold you back,
You did just what you had to
To change your situation and get
Yourself together
Made it through whatever,
Wishing you the best
[Chorus]
I hold a memory of myself
reflections of what I used to be
these broken roads that got me here
can make it hard to face reality
but a new day is here
it's time that I embrace it
can't wait another day
right now I gotta face it
Chorus
I never ever wanna press rewind
never wanna go back in time
not much glory
in that story but it's mine so I'm
lovin who I am today
the past has passed away
finally I
have forgiven me
I hold a memory of myself
so young and foolish and not knowing
careless decisions that I made
I wish somebody would have told me
but a new day is here
it's time that I embrace it
can't wait another day
right now I gotta face it
Chorus
I never ever wanna press rewind
never wanna go back in time
not much glory
in that story but it's mine so I'm
lovin who I am today
the past has passed away
finally I
have forgiven me
the mirror on the wall
it lets me see today
that I'm, I'm not that foolish girl
time has brought a change
a transformation
the old into the new
when I let go of me
and held on to you
Chorus
I never ever wanna press rewind
never wanna go back in time
not much glory
in that story but it's mine so I'm
lovin who I am today
the past has passed away
finally I
have forgiven me
I hold a memory of myself.....
'God made dirt and dirt don't hurt!'
Funny thing about a garden
Beauty lives within its gates
Bugs and thorns and weeds, they grow there
But they all help to create
Vivid color variations
Sweet aromas and sensations
Realize under it all, something not so beautiful
But we all ...
Chorus
Need a little bit
(I) Need a little bit
Need a little bit of dirt to grow
We need a little bit
(I) Need a little bit
Need a little rain to wash our souls
We need a little bit
(I) need a little dirt to grow.
Life at times can make you weak.
And I have cried myself to sleep
Cause reality makes you cry
But the truth will dry your eyes
Things they just can't stay the same
When you work hard and you pray
Yeah it may be kind of rough now
But the point I'm trying to make is that we
Chorus
We all need a little bit
(I) Need a little bit
Need a little bit of dirt to grow
We need a little bit
(I) Need a little bit
Need a little rain to wash our souls
We need a little bit
(I) need a little dirt to grow.
Oh sometimes you may sing for yourself
You struggle hard just to prevail
its the lesson you need to learn
its the way you've got to earn
Champions never accept defeat
They fall and get back on their feet
Cause they know (they know)
Like I know (I know)
That if you want to grow we...
Chorus
We all need a little bit
(I) Need a little bit
Need a little bit of dirt to grow
We need a little bit
(I) Need a little bit
Need a little rain to wash our souls
We need a little bit
(I) need a little dirt to grow.
We all need a little bit
(I) Need a little bit
Need a little bit of dirt to grow
We need a little bit
(I) Need a little bit
Need a little rain to wash our souls
We need a little bit
(I) need a little dirt to grow.
Need a little dirt to grow
(It will make you better)
Need a little dirt to grow
(It will make you stronger)
Need a little dirt to grow
(Oh we need it, ah)
Need a little dirt to grow
Yeah
Maybe you don't understand why I gotta dance...
Boom
Have you ever had something that you knew youhad to say
But the message wasn't so pretty
Couldn't say it the nice way
Kinda like you're jealous, you're selfish
You got a bad attitude
Gotta watch the way you living, cause it all comes back to you
Chorus
See my grandmomma told me that I'd better tell the truth
Cause if I hold this information and just let it brew
It's gonna be like..
Chorus
Boom
First comes the match and then the smoke and then the fire
Boom
You feel the flames and then it grows and takes you over
Boom
It burns a while, can't calm it down, like an explotion
Boom
Gotta tell it, I got-gotta tell it
Jeremiah said it's like fire
Boom
You don't seem to have a problem when my language is provain
But you're a offended and insulted when I say: 'In Jesus' Name'
Still I close my eyes, I bow my head and fall through my knees
Cause my conviction is much stronger then my knees would please
Chorus
See my grandmomma told me that I'd better tell the truth
Cause if I hold this information and just let it brew
It's gon feel like..
Chorus
I've been holding back too long yes been goin along
But I've got something to say, need to make a little bit more noise
Get accostimed using my voice starting to today
There's a hope you can't deny
There's a love that never dies
A power that you just can't hide
Too brief too keep inside!
Chorus
Boom
My heart has found a new beat
Ever since you came into my life
No I don't lose no sleep
'Cause I know He's walking by my side
And if you're looking for me
Safe in His arms is where you'll find me
'Cause I've gotta be
Gotta be happy
Wanna be happy
I was searching for a long time
For the right one to give my heart to
Then suddenly I looked to the sky
And I realized that it should be you
'Cause sometimes I stray away
And I make mistakes
But you still love
So now and forever
Your arms is where I wanna be
My heart has found a new beat
Ever since you came into my life
No I don't lose no sleep
'Cause I know He's walking by my side
And if you're looking for me
Safe in His arms is where you'll find me
'Cause I've gotta be
Gotta be happy
Wanna be happy
Tell me how would you describe happiness
Right now you're all good, later you're a mess
Maybe you should start making some changes
Ever consider reaching towards heaven
Your burden will get lighter and you'll have no desire
To turn away 'cause I can say
That His love won't ever change
My heart has found a new beat
Ever since you came into my life
No I don't lose no sleep
'Cause I know He's walking by my side
And if you're looking for me
Safe in His arms is where you'll find me
'Cause I've gotta be
Gotta be happy
Wanna be happy
Never end had a treasure
Just call my own
Until you came along
No matter what happens
You're mine forever
You've captured my soul
And I won't let go
My heart has found a new beat
Ever since you came into my life
No I don't lose no sleep
'Cause I know He's walking by my side
And if you're looking for me
Safe in His arms is where you'll find me
'Cause I've gotta be
Gotta be happy
Wanna be happy
Whoo!
It sure is hot out here

Just glad to be great

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance

(Yeah, yeah)
You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
(Uh feel me)
And I'm gonna praise you
(What'cha gon do)
I'm gonna praise you
In the corners of mind
I just can't seem to find a reason to believe
That I can break free
Cause you see I have been down for so long
Feel like the hope is gone
But as I lift my hands, I understand
That I should praise you through my circumstance
Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
I just wanna praise you
I just wanna praise you
You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
And I'm gonna praise you
I'm gonna praise you
Everything that could go wrong
All went wrong at one time
So much pressure fell on me
I thought I was gon lose my mind
But I know you wanna see
If I will hold on through these trials
But I need you to lift this load
Cause I can't take it anymore
Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
I just wanna praise you
I just wanna praise you
You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
And I'm gonna praise you
I'm gonna praise you
Been through the fire and the rain
Bound in every kind of way
But God has broken every chain
So let me go right now
Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
I just wanna praise you
I just wanna praise you
You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
And I'm gonna praise you
I'm gonna praise you
[repeat x3]
Take them off
What'cha gonna do, yeah
Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
I just wanna praise you
I just wanna praise you
You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
And I'm gonna praise you
I'm gonna praise you
I just wanna tell the truth man
Your so fly your so high
Everbody around you trying to figure out why
Your so cool you win all the time
Everywhere you go man you get alot of shine
Boy like a magnet better yet I have it
Everything you wear people say they got have it
From the sweat suit to the white tee to the gucci
You can probably say people wanna get like me
But what they don't know is when you go home
and get behind closed doors man you hit the floor
and what they can't see is your on your knees
So the next time you get it just tell em
Chorus
It's the God in me
you think I'm so fresh you think I'm so clean
You think I'm so sweet It's the God in me
What is it, you think you see?
It's the God in Me
You see her style you think she nice
you look at her whip you say the whip tight
You look at her crib you thinkin she paid
you look at her life you think she's got it made
but everything she got the girl's been given
She calls it a blessing but you call it living
When it comes to money she can be a hero
She writes them checks with a whole lot of zeros
But what you don't know is when she get home
and get behind closed doors man she hit the floor
and what you can't see is she on her knees
And if you ask her she'll tell ya
Chorus
It's the God in me
you think I'm so fresh you think I'm so clean
You think I'm so sweet It's the God in me
What is it, you think you see?
It's the God in Me
What is it you think you see
when you see me, you see me
You don't know how much I pray
don't know how much I gave
don't know how much I changed
I'm just tryna explain
Chorus
It's the God in me
you think I'm so fresh you think I'm so clean
You think I'm so sweet It's the God in me
What is it you think you see? Its The God in Me
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah Its the God in Me Yeeah.
No one said there will be mountains that I will have to climb
And no one said there will be battles that I will have to fight
But victory all defeat, it's up to me to decide
But how can I expect to win If I never try.
I just can't give up now
I've come too far from where I started from
Nobody told me the road would be easy
and I don't believe he brought me this far to leave me
Never said there wouldn't be trials
Never said I would't fall
Never said that everything would go the way I want it to go
But when my back is against the wall
And i feel all hope is gone,
I'll just lift my head up to the sky
And say help me to be strong
I just can't give up now
I've come too far from where I started from
Nobody told me the road would be easy
and I don't believe he brought me this far to leave me
[Hook:]
No you didn't bring me out here to leave me lonely
Even when I can't see clearly
I know that you are with me(so I can't)
I just can't give up now
I've come too far from where I started from
Nobody told me the road would be easy
and I don't believe he brought me this far to leave me
[verse 1]
Some people believe that the sky is the highest thing in life, but i
Believe it's just the highest thing they've seen
Well you better believe there's someone beyond that big blue thing
And he's the biggest, greatest thing, the biggest, greatest thing i've
Never seen
[verse 2]
Now it's been said there's nothing deeper than the ocean's deep
But could it be that's just too far for the human mind to think?
Well i know someone more itelligent than words can speak
And he's the biggest, greatest thing, the biggest, greatest thing i've never seen
The moral of the story is
That there's someone that's
Definitely bigger, greater than your mind could think
I know that you were wondering if everything we're saying here is make believe, but it's reality
And if you look around he's everywhere to be found
Cuz he's the biggest, greatest thing, the biggest, greatest thing i've never seen
I know one day i'll see his face man, then i can't wait
[Chorus:]
I can't believe you chose someone like me
When I've done nothing to deserve it, no
I feel so blessed 'cause you give me
you best
Your love is nothing less than incredible
I'll take a little time out
Just to think a little while
Back on everything
I've been through
All my ups 'n' downs
Would still be ups 'n' downs if
if it wasn't for you
[Chorus:]
I tried it without you
Can't do it without you
Never again will I try
You came and you love me
And oh how you loved me
Somehow I just don't know why
Lord you mean just
The whole world to me
Without you
I don't know
Where I would be
[Chorus]
[Hook:]
I try but sometimes I fail
Now I realize that I need your help
'Cause I can't make it all by myself
I need you, you, you , yeah!
I should know by now there's no way no
How I could live my life without you
Still I get caught up in myself
And talk to you less and less
And every time that I do
I come right back to you
Cause after all my mistakes
I know that I have to change
So I put my life in your hands
[Hook]
I wish I could undo some things that
I have done in my past
But I can't erase what's already
Taken place
So from now on I'll try to do my best
Cause after all my mistakes
I know that I have to change
So I put my life in your hands
[Hook]
Nobody wants to fall but we fall sometimes
Then you are there to catch us all
Every time you look beyond all my faults
'Cause you know I need another chance
To get it right you forgive me 'cause I try
[Hook]
Tragedies are commonplace
All kinds of diseases, people are slipping away
Economies down, people don't get
Enough pay
But as for me all I can say is
Thank you Lord for all you done for me
Folks without homes are in the streets
And the drug habit some say
They just can't beat
Muggers and robbers, no place seems
To be safe
But you've been my protection every
Step of the way
And I want to say
thank you Lord for all you've done
For me hey
[Lead:] It could've been me
[Chorus:] Thank you
[L:] Outdoors
[C:] Thank you
[L:] With no food
[C:] Thank you
[L:] And no clothes
[C:] Thank you
[L:] All left alone
[C:] Thank you
[L:] Without a friend
[C:] Thank you
[L:] Or just another number
[C:] Thank you
[L:] With a tragic end
[C:] Thank you
[L:] But you didn't see fit
[C:] Thank you
[L:] To let none of these things be
[C:] Thank you
[L:] You keep on, keeping on, keeping me
[C:] Thank you
[L:] I wanna say
[Chorus:] Thank you Lord for all you've done for me
I wanna thank you for your love
Thank you for your power
Thank you for protection, every hour
Thank you

No virgin me for I have sinned
I sold my soul for sex and gin
Go call the Priest all meek and mild
And tell them Mary is no more a child
It's raining stones, it's raining bile
From the luxury of your denial
So I don't deny, I won't make due
I'll press alarms, place bets on truth
I'm so up and down
And I love what's not allowed
I was lost, now I see
And now I'm growing old disgracefully
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to
Hail Mary full of grace
The Lord is with Thee
Blessed art Thou amongst women
And blessed is the fruit of Thy womb, Jesus
Holy Mary, Mother of God
Pray for us sinners now
And at the hour of our death
Amen
I'll spit on floors and do more drugs
Burn every bill, get drunk on love
Wear next to nothing in the pouring rain
Be a bad example and do it all again
I'll be uncareful and cause such scenes
And I'll never talk of used-to-be's
Tattoo my face, I won't go gray
Be a dancing queen, I'm growing old disgracefully
I'm so up and down
And I love what's not allowed
I was lost, now I see
And now I'm growing old disgracefully
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to Mary?
Whatever happened to

"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
[Run]
Had a fly girl Flo, called her honey
Next thing she spent up all my money
?? debt, you and your girl's dizzy
Stopped movin crack but you're still gettin pissy
You could call me everyday God sent
like you was Lois Lane and I was Clark Kent
I spend and I spend and you spent and you spent
Now my house with a mouse is a roach with a tent
"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
[D.M.C.]
Mary Mary Mary you cold thumb suckin
Lookin for you, but you keep duckin
I wanna find you, I gotta tell you somethin
So just be quiet and don't say NUTTIN

Supposed to be with me, but not you're FRONTIN
We started out new, you used to be true

[Run]
Now..
This girl Mary I knew so well
I met her on the road in a fly hotel
High on the heels and never failed
(Clubs and the pubs is where she dwelled)
Story about Mary was well to tell
She seemed to scheme for a dream to sell
She spent a night locked in a cell
I knew Mary well cause she +Raising Hell+
"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
[D.M.C.]
It's not Mary who was quite - contrary
Talkin bout Mary who was always in a - hurry
The things she needed were necessary
She did not need, a busted cherry
True and blue just like a blueberry
Ask if she's crazy and I'll say very
Livin in a house that's out on the prairie
I worry about Mary cause Mary is scary!
"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
"Mary, Mary.." WHY YA BUGGIN?
"Mary, Mary.." I NEED YA HUGGIN
