The Power of Community
Not every man who wears a crown is able to be a good king
And not every women who wears a crown can be a good queen
For if you don't possess the love for God and have a community to safeguard your back
No matter your title or status you will constantly be under attack
Now three generations of kings would not follow the dictates of God
Jehoshaphat and his ancestors had no love for the Lord in their hearts
For if one has no sincerity dwelling within
Your alliance with others is not that of friends
So be careful who you keep company with and be cautious in your relationships
For if you hang with those who don't know God you'll be like a rudderless ship
Lost and confused not knowing the love of God
Bitter and burnt with envy in your heart
Now understand that a community which prepares and prays
Will give each other the power to always make a way
Comprehend that a community which prays and prepares
Will gird each other up to present the spirit of no fear
The power of community is an omnipotent force
Which can bring about true change with godly recourse
The power of community is a mighty entity
For there is strength in numbers that assures victory
Today we see the signs of change and we can not let up
For we've placed ourselves in the position to now interrupt
The power of community is about positioning and praise
Let us stand on Holy ground and in song our voices to God be raised
To give God the glory and all that He is due
For as a community we stand stronger, longer and true
Now let's all use the talents and gifts that to us God gave
Let us step out of comfort zones with good courage and spiritually brave
For the power of a community that praises, prays and positions itself properly
With the love of God and the worship to God will have provisions abundantly
