The Cross Movement - Father Forgive Them lyrics

(Prelude: The Amba**ador) Yeah, yeah, yeah... I hear what they sayin They really not sayin' nothin.' Finite man, rebellin' against infinite God... That don't even sound right (Chorus) 'Father forgive them for they know not what they do Father forgive them for they know not what they do' For disregarding what is true, lovin' sin instead of you 'Father forgive them for they know not what they do' (2x) (The Amba**ador) Heaven presents another smash hit for Jesus He keeps you rockin' when we're droppin' phat masterpieces We're on the side of the God who's been rejected The One who took flesh, died, but who's resurrected Jesus, the full Godhead manifested Grace and peace to all those chose and elected Check it, but on the real things aren't chill as they seem-why? Cash seems to make mad people blaspheme That's what the ill deed that man's greed leads to It's got you bitin' that hand that feeds you He's grieved to the heart, bone, and the marrow All because God gets more respect from the sparrow Jesus died for men, but who wants to live with Him? Can't stand Him they want the mammon, the Benjamins And if it's men then it's within The natural in the live of life of unrestricted sin Huh, sounds fun but like a hand and a gun Sin and d**h go together like Sanford and Son So this plan is done. It's not hard to hear squads Talk hard and live like they don't fear God Plus we're in the era of the "Human Superstar,” But no matter who they are they fall tryin' to pull a "coupe de tat” Answer me, how can this be sensible? Man tryin' to overthrow God the invincible? Learn this principle that I'm droppin' God's omnipotent, omnipresent, He's omniscient and sovereign That's the first lesson now in this session from my crew We need forgiveness, we know not what we do (Chorus) 'Father forgive them for they know not what they do' For puffin' blunts, and pullin' stunts, and drinkin' brew For the criminal acts done by criminal crews (2x) Father forgive them for they know not what they do' For disregarding what is true, lovin' sin instead of you 'Father forgive them for they know not what they do' (2x) (The Phanatik) I'm more than fascinated by the facets of creation and nature I'm infatuated by the facts and attributes of my Creator I wager this world don't even know His name And those who do they treat it like growin' pains And go insane when it's mentioned-feel the tension Between God and man, I ride the land and see there's 'nuff work to be done Between the earth and the One who made it Everything belongs to Him (uh huh) So we give props through songs and hymns just like David But once again the sons of men have formed a pact Another culture without God is on the map Lord, I apologize for all the guys Who go one way when you clearly say otherwise 'Father forgive them' for they don't know your plan Who can stop your motion or even slow your hand? No one can! But still this world they want to have a face off With the soon coming King who's runnin' things like a racehorse They pace off ten steps, turn and shoot Haven't even learned the route and to boot Swearin' they can make it straight to God But wait the odds are stacked up against the man Whose back is against the God whose hand rules the land But ahh (ahh), what a relief to have my plan reversed No longer am I down with planet Earth, where man is first The actual fact was I was born with the natural knack cuz To put God in the back and that's backwards Truthfully, I now belong exclusively To the club where God is no longer where He used to be Stop the mutiny, save the eulogy Christ ain't dead my naka He's livin', I often pray... (Chorus) (The Amba**ador) You wanna please the judge, please Jesus 'cause He's it That's most definite I represent like I believe it Jesus be the Savior of every man-true dat Our sinned, k**ed Him once, k** Him again, will never do that With a crew that sticks to facts from God's Word like glue traps Peep the fly tunes that bring the Triune crew back If you lack Christ you lack the realistic picture Your view's tainted Then let's repaint it with the scripture So mentally you'll vibe with the first century Begin to see Christ who gave His life to save men for free You'll see the chains of sin (and the key) The pains of sin (and the fee) The names of you (and of me) And the whole Adam family taking turns bangin' in Nails and thorns-you'll see our sin that was hangin' him You'll see Him raised and see the state of modern history You'll see the hate for God and wonder how this could be But this to me is no mystery 'cause it's true We need forgiveness, we know not what we do (Chorus) (4x) (The Amba**ador) Cheatin' on taxes, for corporate crimes and malpractice Thievin' for excess, for even worshippin' the Lexus For the life of sin and bein' proud of it, for shifty politics for teachin' ten year olds to pack gats wit' the hollow tips For the braggin,' the Godless rappin,' the kidnappin,' Shootin' and stabbin,' for ridin' Satan's bandwagon (Chorus) (The Phanatik(Talkin)) Ahhh, how can this be? On Your earth Yet we have no worth 'cause we're separated Look at us making moves, runaway trains on our own tracks. Only you can bring us back. Thank You Lord for Jesus Christ. You came after us, but not like some wicked slavemaster Coming to get a runaway slave More Like a loving Father coming to get His runaway children Forgive us Lord...
