Pre-Verse:
Ooo, ooo, ooo-ooo!
See, my name has changed
And I will never, never be the same
I'm living, getting ready to make it in
Ooo, ooo, ooo!
Hey, put your hands together
I hope you don't mind me going old school on this one
I've brought my momma along
We're getting ready to testify
C'mon momma, oooh!
Chorus:
I'm living for the Lord
I'm gonna read my word, fast and pray
Stay on the straight and narrow way
'Cause I'm living, yeah, for the Lord
I'm gonna do all I can to make it in
Verse:
Listen, I grew up in the church
Singing in the choir stand
But somewhere along the way
I let go of his hand
But now I'm a little older, Lord
I'm thankful that He brought me over
I'm gonna do all I can just to make it in, oh yeah!
Chorus:
I'm living for the Lord
I'm gonna read my word, fast and pray
Stay on the straight and narrow way
'Cause I'm living, yeah, for the Lord
I'm gonna do all I can to make it in
Verse 2:
Listen, I made a few mistakes
I even brought shame to His name
But all of my doubts He's paid
And He's kept me along the way
He's been my strong tower; I need him every hour
I'm gonna do all I can to make it in
Chorus:
I'm living for the Lord
I'm gonna read my word, fast and pray
Stay on the straight and narrow way
'Cause I'm living, yeah, for the Lord
I'm gonna do all I can to make it in
BRIDGE:
One day I'll see my Savior's face
Thank Him for His grace
Bow down at His feet
Thank Him for saving me
Praise Him for His word
I'm here all because He loves me
I'm going to do all I can to make it in
Vamp 1:
Live right; I'll make it
I will, yes! I'm gonna make it
Vamp 2:
I'm gonna make it
Chorus:
I'm living for the Lord
I'm gonna read my word, fast and pray
Stay on the straight and narrow way
'Cause I'm living, yeah, for the Lord
I'm gonna do all I can to make it in
