1.Intro


2.Declaration(This Is It !)

Lyricist:Kenny LogginsMichael McDonald
Writer(s):Michael McDonaldKenny Loggins

Check it out, ya'll
(There've been times in my life)
I'm tired and I wanna give up
(I've been wondering why)
Why is the world gettin' so crazy?
(Still, somehow I believe)
I've come too far to die now
(I always survive)
If you're a survivor, get up!
Let's get it!

Gonna cry now, go ahead and get it out of my system
I know I hurt now, but soon I gotta get back to livin'
Can't be here next year, givin' you these same tears
I hope you enjoyed it, 'cause it's the last time you will take a
piece of me

I start right now, I don't know how I'm gonna get thru it
I know right now, I pray somehow 'cause I can't do it
I can't keep livin' like this, there's gotta be more than this
Jesus, I'm ready, I'm ready for what you have for me

(Are you gonna wait for a sign?)
Are you ready for your miracle
God's people it's time to'(stand up and fight)
Let's get it, let's get it'This is it!
Can't mess with my mind anymore'This is it!
I'm smarter, see I've been here before'This is it!
It's a new day, I'm not afraid anymore'This is it!
Yes, I believe, if you believe, help me say'This is it!

I'm a child of the King baby, look at somebody and tell 'em'This
is it!

I look back now, I look at how you tried to break me
To take my life, my peace of mind and drive me crazy
My self esteem, my dreams, my destiny
So, God allowed it, because He knew He had big plans for
me(Hallelujah!)

It's your grace, I know today it's how I made it(Thank You,
Jesus)
When I thought that it was over'(Lord, have mercy)


Everybody that's been holdin' you down, look at 'em and tell
'em'This is it!
I feel my help coming on right now, ya'all'

You think that maybe it's over'(You're life ain't over)
Not unless you want it to be

(Are you gonna wait for a sign?)'you're miracle
(stand up and fight)

This is it ya'll, this is it ya'all
You've been waitin' and debating, here it is, ya'll
All your stuff from your past, shake it off ya'll
Though they said you wouldn't last, but who is ya'll?
Want your dreams back? Let's get it!
Your peace of mind back? Let's get it!
Want your family back? Let's get it!
Are you ready? Let's get it!(This is it!)
I speak against everything that comes to destroy the purpose in
your life'This is it!
Worrying about your finances, your future, when you can't even
sleep at night'This is it!
I speak against depression and fear, every attack from the
enemy'This is it!
This is your day, the Lord made it baby! God has set you free!
'This is it!

Can't mess with my mind anymore'This is it!
I'm smarter, see I've been here before'This is it!
It's a new day, I'm not afraid anymore'This is it!
I wanna hear ya'll sing this with your boy!
Every body say'This is it!

Can't mess with my mind anymore'This is it!
I'm smarter, see I've been here before'This is it!
It's a new day, I'm not afraid anymore'This is it!
Yes, I believe, if you believe, help me say'This is it!


3.Little Boy

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

Little boy where you goin?
Tell me what ya gon do, ya gon be
Tell me what ya future
Is college in ya dreams?
You like that money and dem shiny things
Got shot at 17(Lord)
At ya funeral we sing a sad song(sad song)
Ya mama's baby's gone
I hear the preacher say rest in peace little boy

Little girl where you goin?
Do you even know, you to young for dem clothes?
I know you think you grown, but let him see your mind, not the
crack of your behind
Baby take your time, and realize, tomorrow has trouble of it's
own
Oh, and one mo thing, you deserve a king cause you a queen baby
girl

What happened to the days, when we knew the way, and we used to
say Jesus
Now everything is gray, when trouble comes we pray
Somethings gotta change

I've seen the lightning flashing
And I heard... I heard the thunder roll(yes it did Lord)
See it won't be long, God's showing up our wrong
Get right church, before it's time to go home

Mama, daddy what ya doin?
Ain't took a trip in years
Busy with both ya careers
Trying to make a mark
Even bought a house, but ya kids live at 106 && park
It's getting dark
Don't let the sun go down, now your children ain't around for
ya(ain't around for ya)
Ain't no money in the world worth you losing family
Just tryin to help ya see baby


If we ever needed the Lord before, we sho do need him now

Preacherman where we goin?
Church what does it mean
A talent show or lottery?
I know I've been guilty
It starts inside of me
Together we can make a change
And one mo thing
When you judge his name, be careful the preacher ain't your
God(ain't your God)
See his job is to give people Jesus baby, Jesus baby


4.Help Me Believe

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

'I just want to write you a letter. I have to be very honest
with you right now. I don't really know how to say this... '

I wanna believe
But I'm having a hard time seeing past what I see right now, I
see right now
I wanna be free
But when I try to fly I realize I don't know how, no one showed
me how
Wish I could see that this mess I'm in will really work out for
my good, you said it would
So, if you can hear me, can you give me a sign cause I don't
feel you like I should, please if you could
My faith is almost gone, I can't hold on much longer, take this
cup from me

Help me Believe
Can I believe
Let Me believe
I wanna believe
I'm no good on my own, please give me another chance
It's hard to believe in what I can't see
To give you my will cause you're what's better for
You can look in my eyes and see I wanna believe, believe,
believe, believe

(I want you to know)
I wanna believe
If I never hear I'm sorry I can let it go, gotta let you go
Cause, it's killing me. Jesus you know how it feels cause you've
been hurt before, don't wanna hurt no more
I'm trying to hear you speak, but my heart is growing weaker,
take this cup from me

Help me Believe
Can I Believe
Let me Believe
I wanna Believe
I've been here before and can't take that hurt again
It's hard to believe in what I can't see
To give you my will cause you're what's better for
You can look in my eyes and see I wanna believe, believe,
believe, believe

Believe
Believe

I wanna believe when I close my eyes on this side I'll wake up
with you, more in love with you
And, and finally, you will say my race it is over and my work is
through, cause I believed in you
I know dark nights will come and some days there'll be no
sunshine and you're too far to see


5.Hide Me

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

I know You see us
I know you hear us
And You fill us when we pray
You understand us, See deep inside us
Translate tears and take them away
I'm a be honest, There are times
Your ways and method's, I don't understand
It seems so far, Tell me who You are
I know your touch, but can't see Your plan.
I'm lost in this thing called life,
Left to me now feels right
It's Your turn now, I wanna be where you are

Hide me
Let me live behind You
Cause I need
Shelter from the rain
Remind me
The only way my faith can grow
Is when You let Your winds blow
You're making me stronger now, so rain,
Don't go away
Don't go away

I'd admit
It'd be nice
To have some light shine down on me
Especially,
When, Lord I shall be, You don't always let me see
It ain't easy,
But I'm trying hard to get out of Your way
To believe
That what You say
That my change begins today.
The road includes some pain,
And to grow you need some rain
And when it falls, I wanna be where You are


Cause there's some much I see
Needs to grow inside of me
In the fire I realize
Before I live, I have to die
Please believe me when I say
I can't waste another day
It's so easy to complain
But complain don't make a change
Not the victim anymore
All the things God has in store
If I ain't ready don't let the rain
Go away
Don't go away

Hide me
Cause I need
Remind me
The only way my faith can grow
Is when You let Your winds blow
You're making me stronger now


He made me stronger now
She made me stronger now


6.How It Used To Be

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

I ain't gonna lie
I can't even count the days
Or the many nights I tried living here alone
A heart full of pride
Couldn't see the enemy was me
I was blind and thought my second chance was gone
A ship without a sail
Battered by the raging sea
Taking any love I can to try and stop the rain
While waiting to exhale I finally got on my knees
I know it's been a long time
Do you still remember my name?

Can I go back in time?
Can I have another try?
But I can't change yesterday

Oh I
Can't take another day without you
Cause this heart don't beat the same without you
I forgot who I was
Got caught up in this world
Jesus I apologize
I should've lost my mind without you
Not another sleepless night without you Jesus
I'm sorry and I'm asking please
Make us how we used to be

I try and try to keep my mind on you
But touble keeps calling me
Every time a wound heals
Something else takes the healing away
But even when I've gone too far
You don't even call my name
Mama said if you love let it go
And if it comes back then it's back to stay
You already knew I belong to only you
I run to your arms and say

Oh I
Can't take another day without you
Cause this heart don't beat the same without you
I forgot who I was
Got caught up in this world
Jesus I apologize
I should've lost my mind without you
Not another sleepless night without you Jesus
I'm sorry and I'm asking please
Make us how we used to be

Never knew a life so cold
Thought that things could fulfill my soul
Tried to find love on my own
It was hard to admit I was wrong
No money, no cars, no fame, no lies, no games my life is taken

Now we've come to the break
Tell me what you gone say(you gone say)
I know(I know)
I give my life right
But you know
You ain't promised tonight
Babygirl
Without you
(I can't breathe)
Without you
(I can't exist)
Without you
(This world ain't got nothing for me
I'm coming home)

Oh I
Can't take another day without you
Cause this heart don't beat the same without you
I forgot who I was
Got caught up in this world
Jesus I apologize
I should've lost my mind without you
Not another sleepless night without you Jesus
I'm sorry and I'm asking please
Make us how we used to be

Oh I
Can't take another day without you
Cause this heart don't beat the same without you
I forgot who I was
Got caught up in this world
Jesus I apologize
I should've lost my mind without you
Not another sleepless night without you Jesus
I'm sorry and I'm asking please
Make us how we used to be

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin

Though your vessel be empty
He will supply
For His yoke is easy

OH Jesus said that He will supply

Though your dreams feel like memories
He will supply
And some relationships are now empty
He will supply
He will supply
He will supply
OH Jesus said that he will supply

So my friend don't you worry
He will supply
This is just temporary
He will supply
He will supply
He will supply

OH Jesus

My Jesus
Sweet Jesus
Yes Jesus
OH Jesus said that He will supply

8.Jesus

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

Ooh, susperstar
Never drove around in a fancy car
Kids looked at me funny
Momma she had no money but she always told me, 'Baby, know who
you are'
I say ooh, don't you know
It was hard always wearing my cousin's clothes
Can you hand me down a dream with those hand-me-down jeans?
Thought I'd never make, but I made it y'all, 'cause I had...

Jesus
When I had nothing, had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus
The reason I'm still breathing is 'cause
I's crazy how you love me even when I don't love you like I
should

Ooh, look at me
I know I'm now all I'm supposed to be, I'm gonna get it right,
didn't get here overnight, so while you're waiting please wait
patiently
I say ooh, it's so sweet to know that you were always in love
Thought my game was clever, but no one can play me better than
you
You know you always win cause you're

Jesus
When I had nothing, had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus
The reason I'm still breathing is 'cause
I's crazy how you love me even when I don't love you like I
should

Ooh
When I think about your name I go
Ooh
How you took away my pain I go Ooh
Every night at the club
Ain't no wife at the club
That Jesus he be showing me love
They said I wasn't gon' make it Kirk
I know how that sound
It's only by His grace I can say 'look at me now' If you love
this joint right here
I want you to call your radio station in the morning
And I want you to tell'em Hey Mr. DJ
I heard it say it's gonna get better We gon make it out the hood
someday
Hey Mr. DJ
I wanna hear that songabout Jesus
I heard my mama crying, I gotta let her know He's gonna wipe her
tears away
You are listening to the sound of a brotha who should be dead
right now
But I'm so glad God didn't give up on me!
Ain't you glad he didn't give up on you?
What's His name?

Jesus
When I had nothing, had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus
The reason I'm still breathing is 'cause
I's crazy how you love me even when I don't love you like I
should


9.I Am God

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

see it all right now.(woo!) You pulling back my covers. It's
getting crazy.(Come on!)

Think I'm gonna walk away
You're messing up my life today(wassup)
This time I refuse to pray
Still you keep calling me(calling me)
I don't wanna see your face
The thing I love you erased(Come on!)
Nothing but an empty space
Now I don't know how to be
I know it wasn't right for me.(Yea!)
What you liking what you need.
I feel like I'm in surgery
Still you cut deeper

My secrets within
My blanket of sin
Lord how much longer 'till ya through with me
Please take what you need(Can I get up now!)

Be still and know I am God
Be still and know I am God

Loving you Lord is my way
Everything you don't explain
Somethings I don't want to change
So you keep breaking me(There you go!)
It's like I'm fighting for my life(woo!)
You hit me with another light
I feel like Jacob in the night
Won't stop 'till you bless me

My flesh and my will(Yes father!)
Is yours not to kill(To kill!)
Bringing myself to you(Come on!)
But living sacrifice is more(Can I get up now)

Be still and know I am God(Gotta know Gotta know Gotta know
Gotta know)
Be still and know(yea) I am God(Gotta know Gotta know One more
time!)
Be still and know I am God(You are God! You are God! Gotta know!
Gotta know!)
Be still(Be still) and know(and know) I am God(yea!)

If I could I'd fly away from here
But even when I'm far you still are near
I gotta get out(There's no way out)
Where is there to run(There's no where to run)
Don't go(Don't go)
Don't go(Can't go)
No! No! No!(Whoa!)

You win.(uh huh!)
I've been trying to do it on my own.(Yes Lord!)
But right now I gotta surrender.
You know what's best.(Say it like you mean it!)
It's not easy waiting on you.
It's not easy believing that you got this together.
But without faith it is impossible to please you.(We recognize
you!)
So I'm gonna stand right here.(We are still before you!)
You got me.(We are still before you!) You got me. You got me.

Be still and know(we know!) I am God(We gonna lift those hands.
I surrender to your authority God! I surrender!)
Be still(we're still!) and know(we know!) I am God(I give you my
will)(Gotta know! Gotta! know! Gotta know!)
Be still(I'm yours!) and know(we know!)(I'm yours!) I am God(I'm
tired of living on my own! I'm tired of living on my own!)
Be still and know(we know!) I am God(You are God!)

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

Ladies and Gentlemen
I wanna introduce to you right now
Young Donovan... He's eleven(mmmmm)
The problem we're facing right now
Is we're losing our children(ooooooo)
Father's we need you(mmmmmm)
Can you feel me?

It takes a whole nation
To help me raise this generation
When you look out of your window
Tell me what do you see
If it's a world without a father
Then you're looking at me
It takes a whole nation
To help me raise this generation
My respect to the mother's that be holdin it down
But it sure would be nice to have my daddy around.

All I need is one mic(one mic)
I know you can see
I'm not a rapper
But there's some dudes that are just like me
Everytime you took a picture with you and your family
It was only two people and it's supposed to be 3
It's supposed to be me asking
(Why's the sky blue when I grow up I wanna be like you)
Yo daddy can you teach me how to
(Tie my shoes can I go with you to work so I can see what you
do?)
Lemme see what you do
So I can love my kids too
But you didn't stick around was that too much to ask of you?
Too much to get a blueprint(No)
Too much to show your way(No)
That's the reason why this building is not finished still
today(We're lost boys)
So you wanna believe that(My daddy's coming back he didn't
forget about me)
Only child after school
We just sit there and wait(I know he's gonna come)
Your dad is 78

It takes a whole nation(It takes a whole nation)
To help me raise this generation
When you look out of your window(Look out this evening)
Tell me what do you see
If it's a world without a father
Then you're looking at me(Come on)
It takes a whole nation(Nation)
To help me raise this generation(uh uh)
My respect to the mother's that be holdin it down
But it'd sure be nice to have my daddy around.(Daddy around)

Check this out
They say raising kids is the parents responsibility(mmmmm)
But there's a million of Y'all and only one of me(hey)
What happened to the village as far as I can see
It's been burned down by this modern day slavery

For 11 years I've been living here
I've seen mamma cry more than 11 tears
Watchin mamma see daddy while he slips away
Does Jesus really hear kids when they pray?

She's working to jobs
She can't do it alone
She shouldn't have to she didn't get knocked up on her own
Both: And I know that baby's mamma drama
Brothas it's real
But before you close the door
Don't forget how it feels
Remember

Daddy missed my game and I made a touchdown
I won the talent show but you weren't around
If a girl breaks my heart what do I do with this pain(and one
more thing daddy)
Can you tell me my name?

It takes a whole nation
To help me raise this generation(I need my daddy)
When you look out of your window
Tell me what do you see
If it's a world without a father
Then you're looking at me(Yay)
It takes a whole nation(It's a million of us)
To help me raise this generation(Oh... uh... Oh Lord)
My respect to the mother's that be holdin it down
But it'd sure be nice to have my daddy around.(Everybody that
didn't have a father in your life... I want you to stand up and
sing this part right here)(Hey)
Tell em!

Ain't nothing gonna break me down(Yes sir)
Can't let nobody take me down
Can't let nobody break me down

Can't let nobody take me down
Can't let nobody break me down... Me down(Take me down no)
(Sing it!)

Can't let nobody break me down... Me down(Break me down)
(I had to figure this thing out by myself)

(Heaven can you hear me?)

Ain't nothing gonna break me down
Can't let nobody take me down(can't you here we're lonely?)(Come

Can't let nobody break me down... Me down(I'll be their
father... I'll be their man! Come on)

you would do how you, you keep reminding me that you made me for
yo, I knew,

blue, it's true, but then where would I be without opportunities
to, watch you change my broken life, hear you tell me it's gon'
be alright now, see your plans come together in ways I can't
even explain

Together we been through hard times, But Jesus I'm still in love
with you, I've had many loves in my life But Jesus you make me
feel brand new, You know it's hard for me to believe that you
love me no matter what I do So how I live, I hope you can see
that I'm in love with you

The morning sun was you, I appreciate it just what I needed to
get through cause you knew I had a stressful day gotta get away

things you do the list would take forever I thought it might be
better to tell you why I smile is cause you, you bring no drama
in my life it was dark but I can see the light now Everything is

Lyricist:Kirk FranklinEmmanual Lambert
Writer(s):Kirk FranklinEmmanual Lambert

I like me,
Yo, you like?
Cause I lke me
Do you like me?
See I like me
Cause he like me
God likes me

Short, big nose, big lips
Kinda st- st- stutter but - I never trip
Got my daddy's swagger and I walk with a limp
Got a hot wife - no need to be a pimp
Never been cute - Never been fly since I been changed got that
twinkle in mye
Got my grill fixed, now I smile when I speak
Tell me who that is, that's the Jesuse Freak, it's ya boy

I like me,
Yo, you like?
Cause I lke me
Do you like me?
See I like me
Cause he like me
God likes me

I just smile - I'm so content
And I ain't even got yellow stones on my wrist
I hear the world I'm supposed to be rich
Bud I don't but that - Man, I don't go with the trends
Go the whole mile - lose or win
I hope that's the impression that the CDs give
I'm more concerned about how they see me live
Than trying to get a house on MTV cribs

I like me,
Yo, you like?
Cause I lke me
Do you like me?
See I like me
Cause he like me
God likes me

When the light fade - I know that you see
More than my swagger - But it's you in me
From the storefront church to the packed out floors
They want an autograph but I'd rather give 'em yours
Ya ink don't fade - the crowd wants more
The King's on stage - the final encore
Can't beleve it's - me now I'm chillin' backstage
Big nose, big lips, gon' get ya hands raised

I like me,
Yo, you like?
Cause I lke me
Do you like me?
See I like me
Cause he like me
God likes me


14.Chains

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

That try to bind me
Chains
That won't let me go
Oh Chains
They keep me from trying
Chains
Please loose your stronghold
Chains
Though I try to surrender
Chains
Yet still I remember
Whom the Son sets free
Is truly free indeed
Lord free me from these chains

Chains
And a heart full of sorrow
Chains
I won't sleep well tonight because of these
Chains
How I long for tomorrow
Cause today
There are no tears left to cry
Chains
Though it feels cold as winter
Chains
I will fight to remember
That by your stripes
I'm healed
To your heart Lord I appeal
Please free me from these chains

Of abuse(Chains)
Of suicide(Chains)
Pain from my past(Chains)
That robbed my peace of mind(Chains)
Chains of divorce(Chains)
Addiction and fear(Oh Chains)
Being afraid to die(Chains)
And afraid to live(Chains)
Chains of depression(Chains)
Haven't laughed in a while(Chains)
Restore my joy(Chains)
And give me back my smile(Ooh Chains)
I do love you Jesus(Chains)
But not like I should(Chains)
I love you forever(Chains)
But not like I could(Chains)
Have mercy on me(Chains)
Can't go on this way(Chains)
Save me I'm lost(Chains)
Help me believe what you say(Chains)
This is just a test(Chains)
Though it's hard to see(Chains)
I surrender your will(Chains)
So now I ask you please
Free me from these
Oh please free me from these
Oh free me from these

I know you can
You said you will
Free me
Jesus
I know you can
Please if you will
Free me
Jesus
I believe you can
I believe you will
Free me
Jesus
So if you can
I pray you will
Free me
Jesus

Please Lord I'm begging you
Free me from
Oh free me from(from these)
Free me from these


15.Still(In Control)

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

Lately I've been thinkin'
Thinking 'bout you
And all the things
I've seen you go through
Your mother the kids and
The problems at home
Sorry I wish I could fix what's wrong
I hurt when you hurt and
I cry when you cry
Even the deep ones
Sometimes wonder why am I going through
I'm waiting but still no use

He's still in control
He's soverign and He knows
Just how it feels to be afraid
Have folk you love walk away
Be still and know He's still in control

Lately depression
Your job and your life
Weighs on your mind
All day and all night
You know every scripture
And what prayer to pray
Only a fool would think
It'll all go away
But there is a use
For you there's a plan
A High Priest who knows
And who understands what you cannot say
Just a little longer can you wait

He's still in control
He's soverign and he knows
Just how it feels to be afraid
Have folk you love walk away
Be still and know He's still in control

Don't know what tomorrow will bring
Or if this sickness will ever leave
You can paint a perfect picture
But will it ever look like it used to be
See, one thing I know for sure
This season made you stronger and more mature
Can't you see how far you've come
And when you look back
It's gonna be worth it, oooh


He's still in control
He's still in control
He's still in control


16.The Last Jesus

Lyricist:Kirk Franklin
Writer(s):Kirk Franklin

I see you, I need you, but I don't know your name
I touch you, say I love you, but that's all you get for today
It's easy, so easy, to tell you it's gon be okay
When I don't walk shoes, haven't been through what you been
through
Instead I push you away
Sunday everyone looks like you
But if our lives are cold inside tell me what's the use

If I say I love Jesus, but you can't see my Jesus
My words are empty, if they can't see Jesus in me
No more excuses, I give myself away
Because I may be the only Jesus they see

Too busy, forgive me, I've got problems of my own
It's easier to say your help is on the way
But I was your help all along
We're shouting, we're dancing, but can the world see a change
Am I just too selfish to see, the love they need You put inside
of me

If we say we love Jesus, but they can't see our Jesus
Tell me what's the use if they can't see Jesus in you and me
No more excuses, we give it all away
Because we may be the only Jesus they see

If I am Your hands and Your feet, and if Your church is built
inside of me
Where did we go wrong, we been here too long, we can't see Your
face anymore
It's not the same anymore

Have mercy on us Jesus, please forgive us Jesus
I lost my purpose, if they can't see You in me
See I lied too long, and I change it all today
Because I may be, because I may be

The only Jesus they see, the only Jesus they see, the only Jesus
they see
