Shai Linne - Testify lyrics

We'll start right now His name is Mike Brown Born in Detroit but raised in Chi-Town See, Mike was bright but Mike liked to fight From night to night, all types Mike would strike down No PG at 13 Mike was R-rated By 14 behind bars incarcerated Released at 15- straight path no-brainer Parole officer hooked him up with a trainer Trainer was a Christian father figure and Taught him discipline- turned him into a junior Olympian No doubt with the hand sk**s Mike was nice But God rocked him and Mike gave his life to Christ The congregation is waiting for the next reply Preacher said, "Son stand up and testify" The very next words that you heard coming through the speaker "I used to be a thug, but now I'm a believer!" If you repented of your sins- Testify If you're trusting in Jesus- Testify If you believe in His d**h, burial and resurrection Testify (say what?) Testify If you're saved by grace- Testify If you're seeking God's face- Testify If you know that you were put here to glorify God Testify (say what?) Testify Story number two about a girl named Sue Raised in the 'burbs not far from Saint Lou Sue's intelligence was prodigious, she wasn't religious In fact she thought Christians were all superstitious She thought their arguments were inconsistent Didn't find them convincing- full paid scholarship to Princeton Freshman year she had a roommate named Kristen In God's providence, Kristen was a Christian She gave Sue a copy of Mere Christianity Through reading it, Sue got convicted of her vanity When she discovered the love of Christian sisters and brothers For each other is when the Lord grabbed a hold of her The congregation is waiting for the next reply Preacher said, "Sis stand up and testify" Sue said "Jesus made this heathen new Wanna know my testimony read Ephesians 2!" If you repented of your sins- Testify If you're trusting in Jesus- Testify If you believe in His d**h, burial and resurrection Testify (say what?) Testify If you're saved by grace- Testify If you're seeking God's face- Testify If you know that you were put here to glorify God Testify (say what?) Testify Story number three, we'll call her Cece Raised in Maryland, not far from D.C She's got a lot to cherish, thanks God she's not embarra**ed About her parents because they had a rock solid marriage Father straight loved her, gave like no other Raised with her brother by a stay at home mother Her life always had the true God in the mix Because her parents understood Deuteronomy 6 She was raised in the fear of the Lord Amazing grace appeared and she was saved at the mere age of four A true clear conviction, the old is replaced She's a fruit-bearing Christian who's growing in grace The congregation is waiting for the next reply Preacher said, "Sis stand up and testify" Cece said, "I ain't got no horror story God saved me in my youth I give Him all the glory!" If you repented of your sins- Testify If you're trusting in Jesus- Testify If you believe in His d**h, burial and resurrection Testify (say what?) Testify If you're saved by grace- Testify If you're seeking God's face- Testify If you know that you were put here to glorify God Testify (say what?) Testify
