Take Your Hats Off

All hats don't fit all people And all people don't wear hats; For their pride is too but feeble; Caught up in their radical reasons For their pride is too big And their hope is little Swelled with big heads comes shames Stop playing those games Stop giving out names Who? Are the nay sayers You know they are to blame Take your hats off when you enter a room Take your hats off when your feeling misused Take your hats off when you're accused Take your hats off when you're dealing in your dirt So the spirit of the Lord can move from the top of your head to the soul of your feet When you stand before the Lord, take you hats off; When you stand before God, better have them shoes off; Your standing on HOLY grounds take your hats and shoes off; When you're moving from discord, take you hats off When you come unto the shores take your hats off Teach every boy and girl every person of this world to take, take your hats off; When you stand before the Lord take, take your hats off; Humble yourself be secured in the arms of the Lord; You won't need your shoes no more for the grounds you stand on Are HOLY grounds And when the rain falls, and when the manna falls None of it will hit your head, you won't get wet or feel a thing; So just let it fall, let it rain Just receive Take your hats off written by James Edward Lee Sr. & The Corinthian TM August 24 2016 from the Anthology "Purpose"
