I Got Ya Back
1. If Jesus was physically here alive, today (He is WHAT???)
What do you, what do you think He'll SAY!!!
Well now, many of you self-righteous and holier than thou saints and Christians;
Seems like there's something your missing;
Chorus:
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS, Oh!, my Lord JESUS, Jesus Christ
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS
2. And when I was in trouble, I prayed, (I prayed)
I called on HIM, I called on JESUS on HIs name;
And Jesus would this way if He were truly here say...
I got you son, I got you daughter, I got you sister, I got you brother
Chorus:
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS, Oh!, my Lord JESUS, Jesus Christ
3. I am in AWE at you Lord;
Your so wonderful and empowered;
I will lift you high, ever so higher ;
And I just wanna praise you always. . .
Jesus says again. . .I got Ya back
Just keep on keeping on, your headed the right way to the promise land
Chorus:
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS, Oh!, my Lord JESUS, Jesus Christ
4. Now if you got to go to it;
in order to receive it;
One must got to them no matter where they are;
Because they will never come voluntarily to you ;
Refrain> You got to first go down on your knees;
Pray for the those listening and those non believers
Pray for healings, and rejected feelings, go to the lost;
Give them love, hugs, and all and anything that they may need;<
Chorus:
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS, Oh!, my Lord JESUS, Jesus Christ
5. To be a good witness, and a faithful soul winner;
You must not be judgmental or self-righteous;
Jesus was amongst them the addicts, controllers, backsliders, the soldiers;
He was with the harlots the have not's, the poor-improvised, the haters, debaters, thief's, robbers, rapist, beggars, and liars;
You gotta go to them no matter where they are;
Even at the cross, (even to the cross);
Go to them even in the jail house,
Seek the meek, the weary, the lost;
Jesus say's I got ya back
Chorus:
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS, Oh!, my Lord JESUS, Jesus Christ
6. Now can you picture HIM (Jesus) in the bars, nightclubs and taverns;
Speaking to the drunk, sober saved and lost;
But not judging them, but revealing and informing them;
Just open up your mind, heart and arms;
And receive the almighty Call
He's at the door and He's knocking let HIM in, let HIM in
He's got ya back
Jesus got ya back
Praise RAP::
< Can you see Christ on the corner next to the drug dealer;
He talks to the gang banger;
He opens His mouth up and say's
"Son I'll be your Father, I've got something better for you;
Come here enter in you are forgiven
I'll be your Father, I've got something better for you;
I got you, I got you, I got you, I got ya back>
Chorus:
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS
In the fire whose there, JESUS;
In the flames who was there, JESUS;
In the pain, in the storms and rains, who was(is) there
JESUS, Oh!, my Lord JESUS, Jesus Christ
