Give Me Lyrics


Give me that joy I can't explain
And extra peace that'll ease my pain
Hope and love that'll never change
Give me that, give me that
Give me that, give me that
Give me that power to walk away
When another god wants to take Your place
As much of You as I can take
Give me that, give me that
Anybody ready, ready for His glory
If you are sick of the life, let me tell you a story
Every place that's dark, He will bring it to light
Hypocritical hearts, back sliders, liars, time to get it right
See, I include myself, I cast my own stone
I'm the man in the mirror, y'all, I can see my role
But I'm here by grace, through Christ, by faith
I had to make that choice, I had to open up my mouth and say
Give me that joy I can't explain

And extra peace that'll ease my pain
Hope and love that'll never change
Give me that, give me that
Give me that, give me that
Give me that power to walk away
When another god wants to take Your place
As much of You as I can take
Give me that, give me that
Anybody tired? You want the show to end?
Get the actors on stage and let church begin
Do you want a revolution? You wanna hear new songs?
God is cleaning up house and first He's started right at home
No more miracle water, brought close for money and fame
Everybody got a title but do you know your name?
If we humble ourselves, people, fall on our face
And ask God everything in me that's not right, take it away
Give me that joy that I can't explain
And extra peace that'll ease my pain
I want that love that'll never change
Give me that, give me that
Give me that, give me that
Oh, I want the power to walk away
When another god wants to take Your place
As much of You, Lord, as I can take
Give me that, give me that
Yeah, give me that joy that I can't explain
And extra peace that'll ease my pain
I want that love that'll never change
Give me that, give me that
Give me that, give me that
Give me the power to walk away
When another god wants to take Your place
As much of You as I can take
Give me that, give me that
And I choose You today 'cause I need You today
I can't get away, see, there's no escape
See what You've done to me, I'm not the same old me
You took away everything, now You're my everything
And I choose You today 'cause I need You today
I can't get away, see, there's no escape
See what You've done to me, I'm not the same old me
You took away everything, now You're my everything
Give me that God
Who breathes life into the nostrils of man
And Sovereign God
Who predestined creation before time began
I want that God who in brilliance
And elegance decorated darkness with stars
The God who orchestrates the future
At the same time He knows where you are
Give me that God who's supplants my needs
'Cause He owns all the cattles on the hill
And he's the God who wipes my tears
And provides enough to pay all my bills
And give me that God, that's the God I'm talkin' 'bout
Give me that God, that's the God I'm talkin' 'bout
Give me that, give me that, give me that, ooh
Give me that joy I can't explain
And extra peace that'll ease my pain
Hope and love that'll never change
Give me that, you say
Give me that, we say
Give me that power to walk away
When another god wants to take Your place
As much of You as I can take
Give me that, give me that
Give me that, all of that
Give me that joy that I can't explain
And extra peace that'll ease my pain
Hope and love that'll never change
Give me that, I need it, I need it
Give me that
Give me that power to walk away
When another god wants to take Your place
As much of You as I can take
Give me that, give me that
Give me that joy I can't explain
Give me that joy I can't explain
I'm at a loss of words now
I'm so happy, You make me happy now
Give me that joy I can't explain
Add extra peace that'll, add extra peace that'll ease my pain
I want that love that'll never change
Give me that, give me that
Give me that, give me that
