"THERE'S WORDS IN PRAISE AND PRAISE IN WORDS"

They Have Spoken You Are Broken

THEY HAVE SPOKEN  YOU ARE BROKEN by James Edward Lee Sr.

(SPOKEN WORD  TESTAMENT PRAYER...  people are sometimes cruel and don't care bout you or nothing.
They're busy bodies but bodies to busy doing nothings.
They work with their mouths unrighteousness. Fuss and complain about everything. You could even give them totally free a million dollars yet still they would holler bout' them, their taxes they may have to pay. So much discomfort and unbelief won't even cross the streets if it was a holiday Thank-giving well......
whom are they, and what do they have to be thankful for)

They have spoken
You are broken
They have spoken
You are broken
They have spoken
You are broken
They have spoken
You are broken
Broken, broken

the doctor's are on the way
They say you only got eight months to live
Oh!but I, I believe
They have spoken
You are broken
Broken, broken
But shall not receive, why?
cause I believe
The teachers are sayN
That you are failing
4 of your classes
you got a total of 11 classes
Oh!but I, I believe
They have spoken
You are broken
Broken, broken
But shall not receive, why?
cause I believe

They have spoken
You are broken
They have spoken
You are broken
They have spoken
You are broken
They have spoken
You are broken
Broken, broken

The Pastors if this church says am not givin enough
I am on welfare got no food left and
I was told if I didn't give any more
I'll surly die, I told them nigh
Oh! I believe, I truly believe
But I shall receive, why?
cause I believe

They have spoken
You are broken
They have spoken
You are broken
So I rebuke and reject
These negative feelings from all these people
and praise my King whom above all things
Sing...
I shall have spoken
I AM NOT broken
God has spoken, His love is open
And that I am no longer broken
I'm risen and whole
Awaiting the coming of the Lord
I shall have spoken
I AM NOT broken
I shall have spoken
I AM NOT broken, I AM NOT BROKEN
