Oh Go- God You go- got me so good
You put an arrow to my heart like robin hood
You bo- bought me, bro- brought me to Your hood
All my mistakes I’ve/I’d ever made and yet You understood
With You I don’t have to worry
Don’t have to hurry
I c- can take my time
So when I see the world tryin’ to pull me
World tryin’ to fool me
It’s sayin’ m-m-mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine
I’m gonna be
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
‘C-c-c-c- ‘Cause God got to me
First!
Ooh, loo- look, loo- look at this now!
Some pretty little thing is walking down my way, wow!
She go- got me, go- got me; I can’t allow
This to get over my head so I’m heading out!
With You I do have the strength to
Do what I need to
I have made up my mind
So when I see the world tryin’ to pull me
World tryin’ to fool me
It’s sayin’ m-m-mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine
I’m gonna be
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
‘C-c-c-c- ‘Cause God got to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
‘C-c-c-c- ‘Cause God got to me
First!
It’s gonna be hard to get to me,
Arguing about theology.
Don’t bother; please the Spirit up inside of me!
Know what that means?
That means the demons fynda flee from me
And Jesus I believe in ‘cause He died for my iniquities!
Any other road than God’s is the wrong road.
Is conforming to the world worth having your soul sold?
No, I don’t think so!
So I’ma keep Romans 1:16 on the dome, reppin’ the Christos
Reppin’ the Christos. Yeah, that’s the Christ –
He’s the way, He’s the truth, He’s the life!
You ain’t getting’ me!
You ain’t gon’ get anything outta me!
‘Cause I’m t- tied up in a knot now
Yep, there ain’t n- no way I’m gettin’ out!
I’m captured, e- e- enraptured
God h- hunted me down like a wild bird
I’m His – there’s no more than this
If you got a problem, then add it to the list!
I ain’t changin’ my stance,
Rearrangin’ my dance,
To get closer to you
No, I’m not a foo’
I belong to God, and He’s all I see
You can come to Him, too
But just know I’m gonna, I’m gonna, I’m gonna, I’m gonna, I’m gonna, I’m gonna, I’m gonna
I’m gonna be
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
‘C-c-c-c- ‘Cause God got to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
‘Cause Go- go- g-g-go- go- g-g- God got to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
H-h-hard to get
To ge- to get to me
‘Cause Go- go- g-go- g-God got to me
First!
Yeah, that’s right. I’m on reserve. So you ain’t gettin’ me!
Y- y- y-y- y-you ain’t gettin’ me!
