Send Me (Christian Church of Jasper - Lecrae cover)

NOTE: Please excuse the poor audio/video quality. Darren Wagner and Narrow Path cover Lecrae's "Send Me" at the Christian Church of Jasper on January 23, 2011 (this was filmed at the 8:00 a.m. service).

"Send Me"
Written by Lecrae

I seen it wit my own two
Theres no way I can show you
A perfectly poverty stricken people with no view
And I bet you can't believe this
They never heard of Jesus
Heard of Young Buck, Lil' Wayne and Young Jeezy

No one signing up to go on missions this summer
Rather sit at home and watch Xzibit pimpin' a hummer
While a nine-year-old is shot down
No one screaming 'stop now!'
No bridge illustration for criminals on lockdown

People deep in Africa, lookin' for an answer brough
In China men are dyin' man until they know who died for sin
So, look what grace did
Not for us to stay hid
Inside our comfort zones at home in momma's basement

Get out on the grind ya'll, ain't no better time dog
I know you read the Great Commission let me just remind ya'll
Make disciples of the nations teach them to obey the Lord
Hate to never lead someone to Christ before I face the Lord


After 1000 years in the west and the church is
Gettin' bigger daily without understandin' worship
Some regenerated but a lot ain't saved
You walk outside and be surprised 'cause the block ain't changed

And the numbers they be gettin' 'em
Somethin' still ain't hittin' 'em
America ain't Christian they just practicing a ritual
Thats why we should be missional
Hey what you think I'm spittin' for
United States is dyin' and the east is lookin' pitiful

Some places if they catch you they'll arrest you and they'll serve you
But they still need the word too
The gospel should be heard too
We claim we ain't ashamed but yet we still ain't hit the block up
We're in our Christian bubble while our brothers gettin' locked up

Lord I wanna stock up
Pack a bag and walk up
In a country where sharin' my faith may get me shot up
Anywhere I go whether my city or far abroad
I just wanna show them Jesus Christ the risen Holy God


I know they dyin' in the streets
Over in the Middle East
Some kids seekin' peace
Others holdin' up a piece
If the violence doesn't Cease
Then at least, the deceased
Might know Jesus as their savior as their bodies hit the street

And I know this is a graphic view
I pray that its attackin' you
Attracting you to act and do what you see in the back of Luke
Matthew 24 and 14 we should read it twice
Before we think that life is just about us being free in Christ

Look dog, life is more than church, work and football
What if you were dead in sin and Christians overlooked ya'll
This is why we leave the couch and leave the comforts of our house
To show a dying world a God they probably never read about

This song rocked the house on Sunday! Taking the message in any form is what Christians are called to do. Praise God for His gospel in song. Truly we have been given that Great Commission. Let's go "all in".
