I Swear To God

whenever you utter the words "I Swear to God"
you had better be sure that the truth is in your heart
you can front with your girlfriends, your sisters and your mother
you can fake it with your boyfriend, your father and your brothers
but the one who is aware of everything you do in life
is God, The Lord of Lords, the Holy Spirit, The Savior Jesus Christ

God is aware of all your thoughts, all your actions and all of your deeds
He is Jehovah Jyrah, the provider of all your needs
He is the one true judge and the creator of all
so humble yourself to Him, remember pride goeth before the fall
and when you talk to Him, shoot straight from the hip
He's your Father and with Him it's an intimate relationship
 
be pure of heart with your words when to Him you do confess
be contrite of heart with your thoughts so your testimony will progress
understand that there is nothing that you can say or do
that The Lord God is not fully aware of too
so when you say the words "I Swear to God"
let it be the simple truth coming straight from the heart
