Witness

Should be read fast like a rap

Let my praise raise me up, set this fire ablaze

Replaced by grace, you promise better days

Stoke this fire, so my entire body may burn with desire

Preach to me, teach me so I can reach

Others who've listened but not heard your word

Teach me to speak to the weak all week

Help with my struggle, my trouble turning my sins to rubble

I want to live and give sharing its you, who I walk with

Through my rhyme and my time, helping others find

The peace of release through the words you preach

I draw from your well, learning to do well so others can tell

You are the light that breaks up the night, please hold me tight

Comforted you know my name, I'm changed never to be the same

Blessed by your glory
I begin my new story
