Bryann T - Ministry With a Message lyrics

Spoken lord, you have been our dwelling
Place throughout all generations
Before the mountains were born you brought
Forth the earth and the
World from everlasting to everlasting you
Are God for 1, 000
Years in your sight is like
One day just gone by
We're like a watch in the
Night surrender my life, thank you Lord

You want the ministry but you
Don't want the mess
You want the strength but not
The struggle or the stress
You want the fruit but you
Don't wanna plant the seeds
Refusing to be lead but you're the
First that want to lead

You want the victory but you don't
Want to fight for it
Sacrifice for it, Jesus gave His life for it
You running red lights and stopping
At the green one (yeah)
It's time to get your head right
And focus on the Kingdom

Look, hey cigarettes will only leave
You with some bad breath bad habit
Mathematic equal half steps drunk
Driving loud music
For a crash dummy hey only
Prison and collision come with fast money
Convicted felon with the firearm
You're asking for it
Look where you're heading why you
Betting if you can't
Afford it, How are you gonna teach
Them if you've never been taught
How are you gonna give them something
That you don't even truthfully got?
Hey, you need to stop blaming
Your moms and your pops
And everybody in this world for
All your murderous thoughts
Just because His invisible now you question
Existence this regarding God's
Principle with
Your difficult difference took a heart of
A criminal, went through spiritual surgery
A mouth full of
Cussing replaced with kindness and courtesy
I've only
Come to the throne gracious and merciful
That's the reason this relationship is so
Close and so personal hey

You want the ministry but you
Don't want the mess
You want the strength but not
The struggle or the stress
You want the fruit but you
Don't wanna plant the seeds
Refusing to be lead but you're the
First that want to lead

You want the victory but you don't
Want to fight for it
Sacrifice for it, Jesus gave His life for it
You running red lights and stopping
At the green one (yeah)
It's time to get your head right
And focus on the Kingdom

Look, you don't know what I'm
Up against half the time
Apart of me is smiling while
The other half is crying but part of me is
Dying while the other half
Is trying if I could hold on to the
Promise of Jesus then I'll be
Fine yeah! Give me a
Solitary place where I can pray
Alone it's like we
Both running this race so what
Are you waiting on?
Flashback and a past scene
Shadows on the wall
Till I'm body bagged into the
Bag I told God that
He could have it all hey speak life for me
When haters spit and spite on
Me and stick beside
Me when you see this worlds dividing me and
In the sea for me where life is so hard to
Breathe for me make my home a place of
Peace where rest is simply sweet
For me let all my children know I love
Them please remind them
Keep daddy off in prayers cause I'm out here
Fighting giants and leaving you
A legacy greatness
Is our destiny sanctified and set aside and
Finish what was meant for me yeah

You want the ministry but you
Don't want the mess
You want the strength but not
The struggle or the stress
You want the fruit but you
Don't wanna plant the seeds
Refusing to be lead but you're the
First that want to lead
You want the victory but you don't
Want to fight for it
Sacrifice for it, Jesus gave His life for it
You running red lights and stopping
At the green one
It's time to get your head right
And focus on the Kingdom
