Shai Linne - Lift Him Up lyrics

Hip-hop is the horizon where
Dark and light met so the subject of my mic
Check is Christ's death
Spittin' for Jesus- I know it isn't the norm
But God knew me before I had physical form
He let me go my own way for a while
Then when He was good and ready…BLOWW!
God made me His child this helpless
Rebellious bad fella- God grabbed
From the cellar
And set me free like Nelson Mandela
The aim of the Healer- crack
Me ‘til I crumble then send me back in the
Jungle to tame the gorillas
I can find you at the
Club mackin- smoking some herb
You'll find me at the coffee
Shop crackin' open the Word
When hope is deferred, schemes unfold
Responsibility was on the other line I
Put my dreams on hold
Still I'm His number 1 fan
For His goodness and grace
‘Cause like a stuntman Jesus Christ
Stood in my place

We're trying to help you learn a new route
Every rapper's a preacher only question
What's your sermon about?
For Christ, we'll stand firm and devout
Praying that you turn from your doubt
Until the day that He returns and we're out
And while we wait, we'll keep lifting Him up
R-Swift, keep lifting Him up
Timothy Brindle, keep lifting Him up
J-Silas, keep lifting Him up

Cats be "What's up with the Lord
The globe's full of corruption and fraud?"
Dog, the road to destruction is broad
It's no peace in the streets
Because no one seeks
You're seeking for God as much as
A thief seeks for police
It's no doubt in my mind
He'll soon strike down
‘Cause God hates sin more than
I hate Hip-Hop right now
We're forced to gaze at
Industry whores and slaves
I wasn't feeling most of them cats
Even before I got saved
They're more than depraved- no knowledge
Godless content constant barrage of pompous
Contradictory nonsense
But Christ will be taking titles
When He's slaying His rivals for now
We'll stay in the Bible while
We pray for revival
I used to be the type to say
"I'm clever and ill
Better with skill" my agenda- get
The cheddar and chill
But now I endeavor to build
Since His love letter revealed
That Jesus Christ's resurrection is real!

We're trying to help you learn a new route
Every rapper's a preacher only question
What's your sermon about?
For Christ, we'll stand firm and devout
Praying that you turn from your doubt
Until the day that He returns and we out
And while we wait, we'll keep lifting Him up
Hazakim, keep lifting Him up
Christcentric, keep lifting Him up
Redeemed Thought, keep lifting Him up

A Holy God- that's a problem for sinful man
I keep my verse short because
Y'all got short attention spans
I'm loving His Redemptive Plan
A hot solution- my only contribution
Is a empty hand through sovereign grace
We awake from dead sleep
Our faith we let speak
Through ancient techniques
No repentance, no faith- no everlasting life
Even if you cried when you saw
"The Passion of the Christ"
Nobody I know that's liver (Jesus)
I got His goodness and mercy following
Me like cops follow black drivers
I serve a God who takes
Crazy drama out of lives
And turns baby mamas into wives! (Say Word)
It's a major surprise how shady guys
Find favor in His eyes
Then He enables us to labor for the prize
In conclusion
We'd like to say that He's tight
Speak right
Seek Christ and I'm out like three strikes

We're trying to help you learn a new route
Every rapper's a preacher only question
What's your sermon about?
For Christ, we'll stand firm and devout
Praying that you turn from your doubt
Until the day that He returns and we out
And while we wait, we'll keep lifting Him up
Process, keep lifting Him up
Cross Move, keep lifting Him up
Red and Precise, keep lifting Him up

We're trying to help you learn a new route
Every rapper's a preacher only question
What's your sermon about?
For Christ, we'll stand firm and devout
Praying that you turn from your doubt
Until the day that He returns and we out
And while we wait, we'll keep lifting Him up
Lamp Mode, keep lifting Him up
Rock Soul baby, keep lifting Him up
Bang Theory, keep lifting Him up
The Union, keep lifting Him up
