Go Lyrics

Go Lyrics

Verse 1
Got to get my weight up

Everyday that I wake up

Is another day close to the grave



Now there's a cross that I take up

Everyday that I wake up

It's good just to know that I'm saved



That puts a smile on my face

Just thinking about His grace

I've been saved since five years old



When momma told me to scr*pe

All the food on the plate

Plus the greatest story that's been told



She taught me John 3:16

By the time I was 16

I was broadcasting my faith



I was telling the good news

I knew that I couldn't lose

Especially if my behavior was straight



‘Cause it's one thing to talk

It's another thing to live

Like Christ when you get with your friends



So you can show them how Christ

Can transform a life

In addition to forgiving your sins



Hook
Now if you're standing right here

And you're hearing me loud and clear

And when it comes to the message of Christ



You ain't scared

Let me hear you say—Go!

Come on let me hear you say—Go!



And if your in a good mood

And you know that you can’t lose

If you talk to a person



And give them the good news

Let me hear you say—Go!

Let me hear you say—Go!



Verse 2
Sometimes it's beautiful

Other times I'm fuming

When I go to a funeral—why



Because the preacher that's ruling

The pulpit is fooling them

Pulling the wool over their eyes



So now what's a man to think

When in every single case

The preacher boldly exclaims



Though he never claimed to be saved

And he died from aids

That he's still in a better place



Now I leave confused

And the people leave confused

And the family is comforted, but



It's under the false pretense

That once a weekend

Is all that Jesus wants



So you know that it's our job

To open up their eyes

With the truth that's found in the script



So we can't afford to hide

The treasure that's inside

Let’s bless the world with this wonderful gift—let's give it to them



Hook


Verse 3
Can't be ashamed

Of going against the grain

Got to pray—lest we fall into sin



You know the sin of not

Speaking the truth in the word of God

‘Cause you're afraid of losing a friend



Now if you saw your friend

About to get hit by a car

You would run and push them out of the way



Because you love him

You would shove him

To keep the taker from shoveling that brown dirt over his grave



Now if you would go to great lengths

To save a man’s life

‘Cause you don't want to see them die on the road



Then tell me how much more

Should you tell him about the Lord

Because you care about the state of his soul



Now there is so much more

That I really wanted to say

But I chose to keep it simple and light



So keep teaching—keep preaching

The world they need Jesus

Much more than we need to be liked
