Become

We've all been given an assignment

Every single one of us

We've all been designed to occupy a place in the body

You'd think that we would embrace it, but oddly we've replaced it with folly

So on the day we depart

We'll explain to our God who would hang on a cross

We were ashamed to exalt you in the face of the false

So at night we're awake

In the day, we're exhausted

We've strayed from the promise relayed through His prophets

While Satan is scoffing, orchestrating, and plotting

The sin in this world

The ladies that often are stripped from their homes

And exchanged for a profit

The millions of Christians that are placed in a coffin

By thousands of Muslims obeying Muhammad

The babies, no fathers

The slain, and the fallen

The blood on our hands

The stain on our conscience

It was your name that He called

In Isaiah when God said, "Whom shall I send?"

Your hand raised

Then you thought regret

Every name that I've lost

Fear has placed me in bondage

Sin is engraved in my posture

Confusion in my brain, it won't stop

And doubt, are you sure it's my name that you called?

See you can become everything that our Father has called you to be

In spite of yourself, the way that you feel and the flaws that you see

Your past is a mess and the scars you received make it hard to believe

But the pain of your past will now serve as a win that we all can achieve

See Jesus was hung and He bled and He died that we all could be free

But the things of this world try to strangle you and make it harder to breathe

But the people in bondage are waiting on you to acknowledge their need

And if Christ doesn't meet you halfway then what kind of God would He be?

So we fight for the truth

And disciple the youth

Who are biting the fruit

We rebuild the image of Christ in the church, the bride and the groom

And now we must go

As darkness approaches

We're losing the Son

There's a world that will know Him but now we're just waiting on you to become
