Intro to Chorus: Forgiveness flows from the rivers of your grace Your Mercy draws me to my knees to pray I'm broken but you wash my sins away And inside I can hear your spirit say That I should
Chorus:
Call on the Name of the Lord Call on the Name of the Lord Call on the Name of the Lord And He will hear you And He will hear you
Rap verse 1:
You see my best friend Alex invited me to go to Church And I had this summer job back then but I didn't have to work So I'm standing in the pews with this hymnal in my hands Singing The Ole Rugged Cross and on the Solid Rock I Stand I ain't been to church In a while maybe since last Christmas Or maybe last Easter like some family tradition But I never heard your voice before my Mom and Dad they went to war Ended up in a Divorce and I don't know if I can trust no more Pastor reads the Bible after some songs and starts praying But I'm catching on to every single word that he's saying I'm barely in my teens and I'm a basket case of stress Peer pressure, sex and drugs I swear this life's a mess, Hit me.

Rap verse 2:
See most of the Christians that I met they got their nose in the air Nobody cares what you know until they know that you care They spend all of their time talking about the Hell place But Alex talks about Jesus with a smile on her face She knows about my dad leaving and about my mom drinking My little brother's autism and how my grades have been slipping As the service comes to an end I sit back and I think About all the things that I been through and how Jesus died for me? This is the moment right now, right now to take a stand As the Pastor says to close your eyes and please bow your head He says raise up your hand if the lord you want to receive And with tears in my eyes I raise up my right sleeve And I walk up towards the alter pastor meets me halfway He wraps me up in his arms and says son you'll be OK and I except him and I believe and I confess Jesus Love And I know I felt a smile shine down from above So I stand here changed and I'm changed here by You And I'm handing you my life and you can do whatever you want to do Life will never be perfect but God will never hurt me I prayed the sinner's prayer and I swear the Lord you heard me See I prayed the sinner's prayer and I swear the Lord he heard me And I swear the Lord he heard me.
