Notes About The Poem

You Are the One Gimme Sum

YOU ARE THE ONE GIMME SUM

Gimme sum you’re the one
Gimme sum blessing, God
Gimme sum longevity of life
Gimme sum endurance
To accomplish mine…
My right (my rights) to worship and praise you
Can’t nobody no human, nor government detour me
From praisin my Lord and King
Gimme Lord
Gimme sum, Gimme Lord

Cause one plus one plus one is you
Father, Spirit, Son
You are the one
You’re the one
Gimme  sum
