To trouble tradition the song

To often we tend to flow 
With the same old status quo 
Unwilling to get out of the boat 
Settling just to stay afloat 

We need to trouble tradition 
To change our spiritual position 
To trigger a godly transformation 
And become in Christ new creations 
 
Too often we're reluctant to even take a chance 
To try to alter our circumstance 
To take that unknown journey as we traverse life
To learn to walk in the ways of Jesus the Christ 

We need to trouble tradition
To change our spiritual position 
To trigger a godly transformation 
And become in Christ new creations 

We serve an all-knowing God 
who looks high and looks low 
An all-powerful benevolent being 
who for us will always show 
His Mercy, His grace, His unconditional love 
And the power that abides in the sacrificial blood 

No life ain't easy but we need to understand 
The significance of the sacrifice of the Son of Man 

Yes we need to trouble tradition 
To bring change to our spiritual position 
To trigger a godly transformation 
And in Christ become new creations 

For now is the time 
to take that unknown journey in life
To now walk in the ways 
of our Savior Jesus the Christ 
Who for us died when He troubled tradition 
When for us He made 
the ultimate act of submission 

Yes, we need to go out and trouble tradition 
To get up and now change our spiritual position 
To trigger a godly transformation 
and in the name of Christ become new creations 

No life ain't easy and we need to understand 
The significance of the sacrifice 
of Jesus, the Son of Man 
Who for us died because He troubled tradition 
When for us He made 
the ultimate act of submission

Yes, we need to go out and trouble tradition 
To get up and now change our spiritual position 
To trigger a godly transformation 
and in the name of Christ become new creations
