| All my friends been wondering
|
| Where my future lies
|
| Since I took my stand for Christ
|
| And gave Him my life
|
| You see they’re wondering just what’s in store
|
| Since I’ve «e, you know, found the way
|
| That’s when the Lord stirs up my soul
|
| And I quite clearly say…
|
| I’m growing up to be born again, blood washed, spirit filled
|
| Testifying child of the King
|
| I’m going to praise Him in the morning, through the afternoon, 'til night.
|
| And then I’ll dream about witnessing.
|
| I’m gonna walk and talk and act like Jesus
|
| Though I may get feathered and tarred
|
| The world may try and stop my mission, but I’ll grow with opposition
|
| Cause I’m an overcomin' Child of God.
|
| The expressions on their faces change
|
| Every single time
|
| You know the looks they give are priceless
|
| But so’s this Holy Ghost look on mine.
|
| You see now God wants us to share the Lord, right?
|
| Isn’t that our Christian task?
|
| So when someone says,
|
| «Hey what’s happening, man?»
|
| I say, «Brother, I Never thought you’d ask.»
|
| Well I’m proud to be living for Jesus
|
| Proud to be a Bible thumpin', pew jumpin',
|
| Jesus lovin', devil shovin',
|
| Blood bought, red hot, soul redeemin', shoutin', screamin' and…
|
| I’m growing up to be born again, blood washed, spirit filled
