[Lecrae, Dawntoya - Beautiful Feet lyrics]
Was walking down an alley
And caught a bullet in his head
That left him bleeding badly
He lost everything at that
Moment except his life
He lost his hearing lost his movement
And he lost his sight
He laid there in a coma but man nobody cared
The Gospel preached in his
Neighborhood? Nobody dared
But los got up out the coma
Got and was able to hear
A missionary shared the gospel
To his open ears
He got saved got trained got discipled
Back to hood you could find
Em preaching the bible
He led a homie to Christ from his same hood
Part of Church plant come on
Now ain't his name good
This is a blessing, I’m stressing
But this is not the norm
We need leaders and believers to
Help carry it on but who would minister in a
Sinister part of town
I pray if Jesus is calling you
You would be found
Eric used to go to bible study as a kid
He got older and started doing
What the hood did
A rival gang caught him slippin
Tried to take his life
But the jammed up so them beat him nice
He woke up in the
Hospital singing bible songs
Praise God he had a place
To learn the bible from
But then he gets saved
And wanna preach Christ
They make him change his whole
Culture and way of life
He gotta get him a bachelors
Wear a suit and tie
Go to seminary by then all
Of his boys will die
Jesus came to invade culture outta nazereth
And used a couple fisherman who
People saw as hazardous
The feet are beautiful if only they'd go
If ain't nobody in hood preaching
How will they know?
Eric is better used taught
Trues in his context
Somebody please plant a church
In his projects
In Luke 4: 16 on down to 21
Jesus says he's messiah says
Hes the chosen one
But more than that he quotes Isaiah
That shows our savior
Targets oppressed captive
Blind and the broke I'm saying
Had a heart for the poor had
A heart for the low
And 1st John 2: 6 is way we should go
In Deuteronomy even tho they under the law
The tithes every third year the
Poor got em all
I ain't sayin you wrong if you live in burbs
I'm sayin turn your attention to
The hood cause we hurting
Man if you ain't burdened please
Pick up your word and
Tho this world is going down while
We here we can serve him
We bring this to the streets
Because we knew the streets
I pray that more would be
Burdened to have beautiful feet
You never knew the streets but
Truth is what you preach
I pray to God you'd be
Burdened to those beautiful feet
Go, go, go (run with those beautiful feet)
Go, go, go
You hold the truth that saves so run
And shout it to the world
They can't believe in something
They ain't never heard
Go, go, go and run with those beautiful feet
