Forgiven by J Knockz Lyrics
Verse 1:
God, please forgive me of what I've been doing
I've been playing masquerade but You've been seeing through it
Four years ago, I promised that I would turn back to You
These facts are true, I'm slacking dude, and still putting lashes on You
Man, I know that's deep, like the 39 on Your back
It's crazy to take a step back and see this world crumble and crack
After everything that You do, we dont acknowledge You?
God needs to lead this country, if you don't agree the problem's you
Too many fake Christians in the world, I'mma keep it real
Gotta stand strong in my faith in Jesus, might even get me killed
But see, that's the point of a martyr
Cause I know as soon as I die, I'm gonna be with my Father
Which art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy glorious name
This righteous King was slain for our sin, Now, forgiveness is gave
That's why I fear no more evil and I no longer fear death
Cause I confessed my sin so He's just to forgive and cleanse me of this mess
Hook:
I've been lost for words, it's really hard grasping this
I fall short of His glory but my sin, He's smashing it
What's happening? They say this man, Jesus, He died for me?
If I believe, I'll be forgiven? Jesus, take the driver's seat!
Cause I'm tired of the pain and I'm sick of the chains that keep on binding me
I wanna be free with a perfect Savior, who keep guiding me
He pulled me out that dirt, destroyed the curse, now I'm living
I confessed my sin, repented, now I'm forgiven
Verse 2:
(Talk to 'em!) This a real life and rap mix
When them words hit that pad, boy, you better know it's my Dad's script
When I say that, you better know I'm not talking 'bout my earthly
Christ gave me new life, I guess you can say He birthed me
(What you mean by that?) I mean I live by that
I mean I live by the Word of God and I live for Him 'till that sky crack
His mercy came and hit me, hit my heart at the fullest
I guess if I could describe it, I'd describe it like a bullet
It came fast and hit hard, convictions were weighing down on me. But Jesus
He came in my life and He saved me and now I'm forgiven, yeah,that's what He told me
I believed that whole heartily and I put all my faith in it
So please don't get this twisted, not money when I talk 'bout them riches
I'm talking 'bout His love, about His grace and mercy
And about His forgiveness. Jesus Christ is my attorney
(Not Guilty!) But wait, I know I messed up and sinned
But in God's eyes I'm righteous cause of the fact that Christ forgives
Outro:
[Romans 10:9-11]
“If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord
And believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved
For with the heart one believes and is justified and with the mouth confesses and is saved
For the Scripture says “Everyone who believes in Him will not be put to shame.”
