Hook: Work on me O God/Till youre done/chip away at me even though its not fun/my soul is starting to fizzle/Work on me/with your chizel
Sometimes I tell God/you owe me/but then he comes back with something to show me/I hate when he does that but its for my own good/I fight him for what I dont want instead of taking what I should/its a hard knock life out here/through all my years and all my tears/its like walking in the desert of Sinai/its like hanging on the cross and asking why/Why do bad things happen to good people/the story ends badly/but whats the sequel/2000 years ago,he was martyred/beat beyond recognition/it was horrid/I hid my face from the sight/everyone did wrong/but he did right/he was the man with the master plan/The kingdom of God is now at hand/The kingdom of Heaven is also within/along with the sin/its a war against the flesh/I cant let the flesh win/sin is fun for a season/but it goes against every grain of reason/hes been knockin and knockin and bringing the heat/I guess my ears were just closed to the beat
Hook
God gives to the givers and takes from the takers/he blesses the lowly/not movers and shakers/dream with your eyes wide open/We are not home yet but we are hopin/be filled with the Spirit/dont be hollow/pick up the Bible and rap at the apollo/time waits for no one/time waits for none/follow Jesus cuz he is the one/Ive been following him since 1990/The Bridges family was the bridge to me/He didnt just die to save you from Hell/He died to make you well/We have a disease that is worse than cancer/And he knew he was the only answer/His death gives us eternity/And his resurrection gives us certainty/a deposit gauranteeing what is to come/he even saved me and im just a bum/a hobo/a ragamuffin/a wretch/and its only by faith/there is no catch/if I do good he doesnt love me more/if I do bad he doesn't love me less/you just believe and confess and he does the rest/there is Absolutely nothing you have to do/simply be an instrument that he works through.
