Lecrae, 116, 1-Lyfe CHH - Instructions (1 Timothy) lyrics

To my fam in the faith
Stray away from a gospel that's fake
It's falsified they deny the fact
That all can be saved
Jews and Gentiles alike y'all we're
One and the same
Cause we're saved from the penalty
That's after the grave
Don't be swayed by false teachings
From heathens with swift speakin'
Cause they're like ravenous wolves
They savage on sheep sleepin'
Attackin' while we're peepin'
Apostasy straight creepin'
Believe them and you're in danger you
Follow doctrines of demons so
Don't get caught in idle talks and disputes
Instead, guard your flock and show 'em
How to walk in the truth
Don't ever let anybody despise your youth
Be an example through your actions
In everything that you do

What it is? (what it is?)
It's the Church (it's the church)
Listen In (listen in)
Put in work (put in work)
No more church corruption (Naw)
No more church destruction (Naw)
First Timothy (yeah)
These are your instructions

Writin' to Christians fullfillin'
The Great Commission
While we out upon the block callin'
All the lost to repentance
Fulfillin' evangelism regardless if
We're in prison
Rep the Risen 'til they listen we
Got a vision for missions
Rewriting the definition of doing
Our Father's business
We the witness to the paganist
Nations makin' a difference
Christ is the mediator who takes
And changed our existence
Cause we've fallen from the state where
He made us naked and sinless
The ransom was paid for men were depraved
The death and the grave couldn't hold Him
He rose in three days
The Ancient of Days crushed Him
Like a can under weight
To provide an escape route so
That men could be saved
The sin that we crave left
Us feeling lonely and pain
While we was trapped in our transgressions
Like a rat in a maze
The sacrifice that Christ provided
Is the only way
If death were today remember me
By spreading the faith

Now saints in these last days some
Will depart from The Faith
Follow deceitful teachings preached by the
God's of this age
That's why I urge you to remain
In the ways you've been trained
Provide a self-examination so that
You won't be strayed
Beware of the wolf rockin' the sheep's fit
They deceive quick
Able with fables and street myths
As the clock ticks so our
Condition gets more sick
Our condition is fallen so Christ
Gave us a free gift
For this end, saints, we toil and strive
Cause we set our hope and our
Worship on the God that's alive
Who's redeeming His people, yeah
That's the reason He died
Christ is our satisfaction
So in Him we abide
Last but not least these things
I charge unto you
Pursue godliness and do it like
He's callin' you to
Shepherd the flock continue teaching them
In wisdom and truth
Until the day we meet again fam
Grace be with you
