He Must Increase

He must increase, we must decrease

That's why we say, 'die' to flesh daily, till it decease

Got called out, that's why I moved out my folks' house

No other reason why I moved from my home town

The comfort zone, the family home, maybe I'll return there

But for now, looking round, seen god has a plan here

It's funny I made 'use me', so he sent me down the road and

First time I heard I was like, 'I don't wanna go man! '

Motto round my home church was 'man up'

It's fellowship with those guys that has helped me to stand up,

Step out a different place for increase

So I moved out; a different place but in peace.

But I'm not gonna lie though, at first I found it difficult

Found it hard to find peace when life turned uncomfortable

Didn't really like the change, it's different from the usual

But this is god's will, so I'll be here

We don't want the spotlight, fame, all that nonsense,

We just wanna lift his name in our concerts,

Even when there's no stage know we are on this

We just gonna point to the saviour like john did

But this is nothing from the other stories that I've heard

People told 'deny christ! ', but much rather die first

Man, it's got me wondering, how can I complain

When these people risk it all and they seeing death as gain!?

Paul said he'd rather be with christ, but he had a job to do

Not empty words, cos you can read he followed through

There's people out there that are living life identical

I get my monthly letter written by release:potential

About the persecution, but authorities deny it

Would I still preach even if I died trying?

John 3:30, gotta increase the name of christ

But is my own name in the way, and bigger in my life?

I must decrease, I must completely be

Just a vessel, so it's not even me you see

But Jesus, cos he's completely driving us

So forget my name ok, I'll remain anonymous!

We don't want the spotlight, fame, all that nonsense,

We just wanna lift his name in our concerts,

Even when there's no stage know we are on this

We just gonna point to the saviour like john did

Vamp

Lift him higher, lift him higher in my life,

Lift him higher, lift him higher
