Gettin' Weary.wmv

Verse 1

I can't grow weary tryin' 2 do good (Gal 6:9)
I gotta stay tight
like black folks
hikin' in the back woods
I'm just playin though
had to start off light
but now I got ya ear
peep what I'm sayin bro,
I know it's gettin tough
pockets gettin' real slim
I'm always one check away
from playin catch up
I gotta fess up
I'm broke
had to hit up my folks
cause my water bill crept up
i know it's messed up
tryin' 2 get a leg up
while you're doing good
and then devil wanna test ya
puttin all ya eggs in a basket
meanwhile the lion
wants to put you in a casket (1 Pet 5:8)
make you blow a gasket
and give up the race
but have faith
young saint
and keep clingin' 2 grace (1 Ths 5:21)
keep givin' Him praise (Phil 4:4)
and don't worry bout tomorrow
there's enough trouble for you today (Mt 6:34)

I'm Tryin' 2 glorify God
too many obstacles in my life

I'm Gettin' Weary
I can't take it
I'm Gettin' Weary
I gotta shake it
I'm Gettin' Weary
I gotta make it
I'm Gettin' Weary
Gotta keep prayin'

Gotta keep movin'
on this walk for the Lord

Verse 2

sometimes followin' Christ is a lonely road,
I should know
I put my life on these beats
so you can watch me grow (1 Tim 4:15)
and see my struggles everyday
and what I deal wit
navigatin' thru life
without a first mate to chill wit (Prov 31)
but that's alright
because My captain is God
and i know
that when the time comes
He's gonna provide
until then
i gotta bear the weight
of my own cross (Lk 14:27)
cuz the life in the rearview
I counted it loss
I gotta persevere
and press on
in hopes
that at some point
you gon catch on
Cuz my work in the Lord
ain't vain (1 Cor 15:58)
In due time I will reap
of the fruit that I sowed in the rain
in the midst of the storm
i gotta remain strong
firmly rooted and built
in the gospel of the Lord (Col 2:6-7)
steady livin by the Sword
of the Spirit
forever my spiritual antidote
when I'm feelin sick and weary

Chorus

Verse 3

I ain't no singer mang
but sometimes
when you in the rain
the Holy Spirit
make you feel like Marvin Gaye
like incense
sometimes you gotta be crushed (2 Cor 4:7-11)
in order to send up
a sweet aroma of love
to the Lord who sits above
watching His saints
observing their great deeds
persevering in faith
watching His Spirit testify
to all of His grace
the Paraclete, the Comforter (Jn 14:16-17)
keeps us guarded and safe

Chorus

I can't grow weary
runnin' in this race for Christ
can't take a water break
cuz my pace is right... (til end)
