I’m or He’s the Man……..

During the Super Bowl there was a ridiculously narcissistic song that backed up the Beats Headphones commercial by Aloe Blacc.  Even though it had a catchy beat, it was dead wrong!  It told us everything we need to know about  the thinking of the world, self glorification, self worship, self reliance!  When will we learn, God does not wants us to conquer our world, but for our hearts to be conquered by Him  I took the song and changed the lyrics, oh how I wish a Christian artist would re-record this song to be our anthem!

 

 

PRECHORUS                                                                        New Version
Stand up now and face the sun                                                Stand up now and face the Son
Won’t hide my tail or turn and run                                         Don’t leave in fear and run
It’s time to do what must be done                                          It’s time  to do what you must do
And be a king when kingdom comes                                      and belong to the King when the kingdom comes

CHORUS                                                                                  CHORUS
Well, you can tell everybody                                                     Well, you can tell everybody
Yeah you can tell everybody                                                     Yeah you can tell everybody
Go ahead and tell everybody                                                    Go ahead and tell everybody
I’m the man, I’m the man, I’m the man                                  He’s the Man, He’s the Man, He’s the Man
Well, you can tell everybody                                                     Well, you can tell everybody
Yeah you can tell everybody                                                     Yeah you can tell everybody
Go ahead and tell everybody                                                    Go ahead and tell everybody
I’m the man, I’m the man, I’m the man                                  He’s the Man, He’s the Man, He’s the Man
Yes I am (x3)                                                                           Yes He is! (x3)
I’m the man (x3)                                                                     He’s  the Man (x3)

 

VERSE 2
I got all the answers to your questions                                 He’s got all the answers to your questions
I’ll be the teacher you can be the lesson                                He’ll be the teacher you can be the lesson  

 I’ll be the preacher you can be confession                            He’ll be the Savior you can be confession’

I’ll be the quick relief to all your stressing                            He’ll be the quick relief to all your stressing

(This is my world)                                                                   (This is His world)

It’s a thin line between love and hate                                     He’s the line between love and hate
Is you really real or is you really fake?                                  He’s real, the world is fake!
I’m a soldier standing on my feet                                          I’m His soldier standing by His feet
No surrender and I won’t retreat                                           No surrender and I won’t retreat 

(This is my world)                                                                   (This is His world)

 

PRECHORUS                                                                       PRECHORUS
Stand up now and face the sun                                               Stand up now and face the Son!
Won’t hide my tail or turn and run                                        Won’t hide from Him, or turn and run
It’s time to do what must be done                                          It’s time to do what must be done
And be a king when kingdom comes                                      And be the King’s when kingdom comes!!!!

 

The beginning of victory, is surrendering to Him!

 

Blessings,
