Alright

Well I was in an accident, they said I was paralyzed

But I walked to church the very next day with glory in my eyes

To my grandpa's funeral I took with a knife I carved a cross into his skin and then came back to life

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face of God

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face of God

Now if you go and hang yourself, your gonna be with God

Any path you'll ever walk, all roads lead to God

Now the Devil may come, the Devil may go, the Devil may always stay (stay)

My favorite thing to do at night is stay at home and pray

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face of God

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face of God

And something big's about to happen, so I guess it's 'bout time to

repent (repent)

repent (repent)

repent (repent, repent)

If something big's about to happen, so I guess it's 'bout time to

repent (repent)

repent (repent)

repent (repent, repent) That's right

So I know some of you folks out there, you just don't believe

You say that God was made my man to control and to deceive

But when you gasp your final breath and your body's in the ground, I guarantee you'll change your tune when you hear that trumpet sound, Listen for it now

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face of God

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face (hey)

I saw the face of God

And something big's about to happen, so I guess it's 'bout time to

repent (repent)

repent (repent)

repent (repent, repent)

If something big's about to happen, so I guess it's 'bout time to

repent (repent)

repent (repent)

repent (repent, repent) Right now friends

Repent, repent, repent (repent, repent)

repent (repent)

repent (repent)

repent (repent)

'Cause I saw the face of God

I saw the face of God

I saw the face of God
