So I stand here today,
I vow to do whatever it takes, even if it cost me my life
'cause my date with destiny gonn' bring out the best in me.
One date with jesus will crucify all that flesh in me,
You take a mess and make a message out of the rest of me,
Bury whats left then raise the resurrection in me!
And then my passion don't burn nor fire, its our desire
The flame never dies out cause it inside ya,
And when your soul cries out the flames get higher,
I said when the soul cries out the flames get HIGHER.
And you know whatever is dry gotta catch fire,
And if your really trying to catch fire, just stand by us until it transpires,
This preserved fire, it never expires, it just transfers like a money wire,
But Lord this is for all those times my mind was made up,
I trust You, then I gave up,
I wanted to follow You, but then the devil told me to weight up,
And this is for them long nights stayed up, crying to get my faith up,
Battling with myself until you blessed me like Jacob,
Them early mornings prayed up, pulling down whats laid up,
Prostrate on my face, 'cause going down, IS THE WAY UP!!
Lord if i gotta pray ten times a day,
If I gotta walk ten thousands miles to see You SMILE,
if I gotta get up at 5AM just to seek Your Face
Lord I'll do WHATEVER IT TAKES!!! So I stand here today,
I vow to do whatever it takes, even if it cost me my life
