Heavenbound
|
(chorus)
Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm heavenbound
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher ground
Heavenbound
Don't you know I'm heavenbound
Heavenbound
Reachin' for that higher ground
Cold rappin' for the King with a sting in my voice
Not condemnin' men or women, but relayin' a choice
Higher groud is the sound that I'm talkin of
Opportunity knocks through a different love
Not love like we know it, like ya love your girl
It's a love from above not of this world
It's kinda profound, a trump will sound
And all God's children are heavenbound
(repeat chorus)
Jump on the job and live for Him
Do you lie satisfied in a state of sin
Listen while I christen a serious sound
Rap cold revin' cause I'm heavenbound
Serious lyrics don't disregard
No treason, gotta reason that I rap so hard
Don't look down or stand around
But keep on reachin' for higher ground
(repeat chorus)
Call us the heavenbound crew and you can be too
If you only knew what He did for you
Christ died, don't ya see to set us free
Look in the Word unblurred, you can find the key
Gotta choice to be voiced, receive Him or not
Like right or left, cold on the spot
It seems kinda easy when ya break it down
As for me and my boys, we're heavenbound
(bridge)
If you want eternal life
Choose my friend, He's Jesus Christ
Only He can set you free
From your sin and misery
God has promised us a home in glory
Trust in Him
The trump will sound
And all God's children are heavenbound
(repeat chorus)
Don't look down, stand around
Keep on reachin' for higher ground
Kinda profound, a trump will sound
And all God's children are heavenbound

Gah Ta Be
|
Now you can have all the fun and money man can have
Sport a Porche or carry Gucci bags
You can gear in gold from your chest to your chin
But if you don't know the Savior, you'll never get in
The gates of hell shall prevail on your soul
If makin' money, shakin' honeys is your lifelong goal
There's a plan laid before you that can change the above
It can fit any man like a hand in a glove
There's only one way to heaven and that won't change
Cause my almighty Father's not respectful of names
So be saved
(chorus)
Saved, you gah ta be saved
Saved, you gah ta be saved
Saved, you gah ta be saved
Saved, you gah ta be saved
I once knew a politician upon Capitol Hill
Attended all the right parties cause he voted on bills
He had big friends, he drove a Benz
But a life full of strife cause he was livin' in sin
He said he wasn't satisfied with life as it was
Everything he'd always wanted simply wasn't enough
When he asked me why so happy, I had to confess
I got Christ in my life, I've been more than blessed
You see there's nothin' wrong with finer things in life
But an eternity in heaven ain't displayin' a price
So be saved
(repeat chorus)
You gotta know it and believe it
You gotta show it and receive it
(repeat chorus)
From a brother to another, I'm not doggin' the bucks
Cause a bum without the Father is a bum outta luck
No mention of exemption, no requirements waived
To enter through the gates ya gotta gotta be saved
Don't make it complex, straight up text
No matter what race, creed, color, or sex
Accept Him, don't reject Him, heed the call of the Christ
He's at your heart's door knockin', He awaits a reply
This life is temporary, lay your treasures above
Eternal life is offered through His infinite love
Be saved
(repeat chorus)

Final Days
|
Well I walk through this world livin' day to day
I see the people, hear what they have to say
Take a look at the ethics, morals, and goals
Makin' gods outta men that rock 'n roll
Like Sodom and Gomorrah, this world will fall
A total destruction, destiny of all
Who have mocked the name of Jesus, the Savior and Lord
In the battle of Armageddon and a two-edged sword
Satan in a day he will never forget
When the King hurls him into a bottomless pit
So keep your eyes on the Lord, don't follow human ways
Cause it's written in the Word, these are the final days
(chorus)
Final days
Change your ways
Final days
The final days is what my song's about
Words so intense I might have to shout
Some might play hard and say I'm wack
But I'm talkin' about truth not egomaniac
And as long as they listen, they won't be dissin'
Cause rappin' final days is a serious mission
Just so they learn, I will stand stern
I hope my words make ya start to churn
I'm concerned with the life that you're livin' now
Your's ego's so bad that ya can't even bow
To the Master of all, Creator of creation
I'm talkin' bout God no misinterpretation
Rappin' hard for the One who deserves the best
Speakin' rhymes that will try and put your heart to test
Don't stop and stare me down with that b-boy haze
Get busy, cause these are the final days
(repeat chorus)
The words of my rap are not what you think
But so secure I suggest you take 'em to the bank
Or better yet take these words to heart
Don't wait until tomorrow, now's the time to start
I'm not askin' for your money or rappin' for a fee
Think upon the words is my only plea
Cause this song's about to end, your time is runnin' thin
And now that my time is up, it's time for you to begin
To do this job is my only request
A basic rap exam puts MC's to test
Spread these words like a fire ablaze
Cause I'm tellin' ya we're livin' in the final days
(chorus)

The King (Allelujah)
|
John the Baptist prophesied a Messiah will rise
He'll be tried, crucified, ascend in the skies
Years later in the city of Dave
A miracle of God gave a virgin a babe
Kings came from afar, followed a star
To worship baby Jesus who was born in a barn
He brings peace on Earth, His mercy is mild
God and sinners reconciled through the birth of a child
It's the story of my Savior, my reason to sing
Allelujah, let it move ya, Christ is King
(chorus)
Allelujah
Christ is King
Allelujah
Let the praises ring
Allelujah
He stood before Pilot an innocent man
They cried "crucify," He supplied demand
He was mocked, spit upon, His clothes were torn
Royalty was represented with a crown of thorns
They placed Him in a robe, they gave Him a staff
As they gambled for His garments Roman soldiers laughed
Upon Golgotha they crucified Christ
Sent from above to cold pay your price
On His command opposition was through
But Christ said "Forgive them, they know not what they do"
(repeat chorus)
Now Mary ran toward the tomb of her Messiah and Lord
Shocked to find the rock removed that served as a door
She took one step inside, filled with fright
She thought a thief must have stole his body late in the night
As she fell to the ground she began to weep
Heard a voice and turned to hear the Savior speak
Christ the Messiah risen up from the dead
"He's alive, she cried, like the prophecy read
It's the story of my Savior, my reason to sing
Allelujah, Christ is King
(repeat chorus)

Spinnin' Round
|
Round, round, you're spinnin' round
Your life goes round and round
I got a reason to rap cause my God is King
Just like a gospel singer's got a reason to sing
And like young David used to play his harp
Presenting praise and worship in the form of an art
I selected a direction, I'm going one way
I got a motive and a reason to say what I say
Telling you about a friend, you need to know Him
Christ the Messiah is the Savior of men
I presented my purpose, now present to me your's
To boast and to brag the most is no chore
I don't mean to sound negative, ain't puttin' ya down
But it appears kinda clear that you're just spinnin' around
(chorus)
Round, round, a-ra-a round, round
You're spinnin' round
Round, round, a-ra-a round, round
On your way down
Round, round, a-ra-a round, round
You're spinnin' round
Round, round, a-ra-a round, round
Christ must be found
Spin, then do it again
But no real direction is where you've been
You're spinnin' like a top or a merry-go-round
Your life song is like my break sound
Your rap is ego-filled, the milk has been spilled
And for this piece of advice, you won't be billed
But take heed to this info, like it came from ya kin folk
Remem' it ain't a whim but you will hear it again
Yo, listen kinda a close, you might need a dose
Of Decent Christian rap with DC Talk as your host
I'm not on the mic to boast but I submit a toast
Praise the Lord y'all sings a heavenly host
You're spinnin'
(repeat chorus)
Stop grinnin' while you're spinnin' cause you're messin' up
You know I rap for the King who could be fillin' your cup
Enlightening lyrics can lengthen your life
Listen close, I don't boast, but illuminate Christ
Don't submit my name to fame, I don't claim to be down
Cause you'll see me going up when the trumpet sounds
Call it heavenbound while you're spinnin' round
I'm saved, hear me rave, I'll be wearing' a crown
Cause I'm in the Lord's army while satan's out to charm me
He won't harm me or disarm me, I know sin is gonna scar me
So I resist temptation, it comes in variation
Condemnation, devistation, you read in Revelation
God is love like a dove? His wrath will be keen!
What I mean is unseen, it won't be green
Crushin' satan, perpetratin' adversaries and foe
The Holy Word of God says they all gotta go
You're spinnin'
(repeat chorus)
What's up, this is dc Talk
This song goes out to all you people
That have no direction in life
You people that are spinnin' round
Well I got news, God has a plan for your life,
He's just waitin' for you to ask Him for the map
So don't take it light

Voices Praise Him
|
(chorus)
Priase Him
Praise Him
Voices raisin'
Priase Him
Praise Him
Voices raisin'
Praise Him, my friend, cause He sits on high
He's the Lord God almighty so don't ask why
Just worship Him, adore Him, and sing this praise
Ignite it, don't fight it, light it, leave it ablaze
Let it burn in your heart, stir in your soul
Proclaim honor to the Father as your lifelong goal
So sing allelujah and let the Word ring
Praise Him, voices raise Him as we worship the King
(repeat chorus)
When we praise, we raise the mighty name of the King
We're born again, y'all, we got a song to sing
He died, He's our guide, and we call Him Christ
A man, a hill, a cross and a price
The King of Kings, Rose of Sharon, the Savior of men
He's the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and End
The sure Lord of Lords, the Creator on high
Praise Him, voices raisin' as it rings in the sky
(repeat chorus)
Praise, let's raise the roof tonight
We're children of the Lord, we're soldiers of light
Rejoice, let's voice His name on high
For He has given us all the gift of life
(bridge)
Let everything that has breath
Praise Him
Praise Him
In one accord unto the Lord
Praise Him
Allelu, do the do and begin to rejoice
Sing aloud, y'all, make a joyful noise
Young David used to rave it when he played on his harp
He wrote the Psalms, a book of songs from His heart
Two thousand years later still a craze to praise
Not a phase, stand amazed at the infinate blaze
It's eternal, that's a fact, and I use rap
To bring glory mandatory cause the King will be back
(repeat chorus)

Time Ta Jam
|
I'm DC Talk and I'd like to say
I rock the mic in a kickin' way
With the def track from Valet Beat
I know it's hard to keep from movin' your feet
So hyper fundi don't be dismayed
Check out the lyrics when the record is played
Not a borderline tune but I got a case
Of puttin' God's Word right up in your face
You see D's for Decent, and you will agree
Quite explicit yet rated G
Because I rhyme hard, and I speak facts
And there's no need to curse when I bust a rap
And C for Christian, 'cause that's what I am
Not a soft sissy, I know how to jam
Pack a party for the Father above
Intense rhymes tell of ultimate love
Talk is for the lyrics, they're full of Spirit
If you are athiestic, you'd better fear it
They're from the Word, you ain't heard
It's my decision that your vision is blurred
So come on rap fans, clap your hands
Take a stand for the Lamb, it's Time Ta Jam
And remember... keep praisin' the Lord, keep servin' the Lord

He Loves Me
|
Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
All of us to Him belong
We are so weak, but our God, He is strong
As I sit and ponder I begin to wonder why
God would send His only son upon this earth to die
The conviction of my heart brings a tear to my eye
And keep reality far from me, I just want to hide
Christ endured such cruelty for a sinner like me
He paid the price when He died for me on Calvary's tree
I once was blind, but now my eyes clearly see
The sacrifice Christ became for you and me
Because Jesus loves me, this I know
For the Word of God tells me so
All of us to Him belong, it's true
That we are weak, yet He is strong
(chorus)
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
For the Bible tells me so
He will stand by like no other man
Two sets of footprints within the sand
But at times looking back one is all I see
These are the days that He carried me
He has proven His love time and again
Pulled me from the fire, a result of my sin
Compare where I am now to where I might have been
Get on my knees just to praise Him again and again
Thank you for loving me, it's undeserved
It doesn't make sense, I mean the picture is blurred
I'm the one that owes the debt, but you paid my price
Now Jesus Christ, I owe you my life
(repeat chorus)
Now that I can see it, will the life I lead change
It's kinda strange we make decisions
When they're out of our range
But in day to day living, we tend to give up
On commitments that were made before life got tough
With compromise in our eyes and pressure from peers
We renig on a decision that we once held so dear
But let's try keep sight of this vision foreseen
Hold tight day and night beyond the point of a dream
Because Jesus loves me, this I know
For the Word of God it tells me so
Everyone of us to Him belong, it's true
We are so weak, yet He is so strong
(repeat chorus)
