"Give It"

Verse 1:
So you got two kids, and a nice big house,
With a white picket fence, and a really hot spouse
You work hard, so you can grow old,
You give all you got, and do what you’re told
Well we’ve been told by the God of old to make disciples to grow and mold
To live like Christ, to sacrifice, to take up your cross, and lay down your life

Verse 2:
Jesus saves from the American dream, but we haven’t told em what that really means
It means go to the states, go the world, share your faith to the boys and the girls
We got a heart for the lost, and we’re concerned that people really die and they’re gonna burn
So rise up, say it loud, don’t hide in the corner, stand out in the crowd

Chorus:
We got to get it just to give it
But once we get it what do we do
We got to go and tell the people
Because they’ll never come to you

We got to get it just to give it
But once we get it what do we do
We got to go and tell the people
Because they don’t desire you (no they don’t desire you Lord)

Verse 3:
Don’t hope in the day when you can sit in your chair
You’re in your pajamas and you got no hair
You lounge around and watch the game
You got a wife and kids who do everything
You don’t get up, you don’t go outside, you’re not really living so why don’t you die
Cause God’s got plans to use those hands so get up get out and tell all the lands.

Verse 4:
Paul and the twelve didn’t retire of going hard for God cause they weren’t for hire
They had a job and that’s to show the nations, Christ crucified, he’s our motivation
He’s the reason we live, he’s the reason we die, the cross on his back, got to pick up mine
I’m ready to get on the field and plant some seeds by the power of the spirit, the one who leads

(Chorus)
