Strong God - Kirk Franklin

The government keep lying to me

Telling me that they come to set the people free

But the power flows when you catch us on our knees

Heaven please, we’re in a state of emergency

See we need a strong God, yeah

We need the real God, yeah

The God with the resurrection power from the grave

To take away the hate, to heal the human race, yeah

We need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a

We need a strong God

See we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a

Yuh, yuh, yuh

Say mayday, mayday

They say the climate changin'

The poor people in the cold

But you keep preachin' to they soul

But we don’t leave 'til everybody’s free

And we won’t sleep 'til everybody eats (Yeah, yeah)

Until lives matter (Yeah)

More than tithes matter (Sing)

The government keep lying to me

Telling me that they come to set the people free

But the power flows when you catch us on our knees

Heaven please, we’re in a state of emergency

See we need a strong God, real strong, yeah

We need the real God, yeah, yeah

The God with the resurrection power from the grave

To take away the hate, to heal the human race

See we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a

We need a strong God

See we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a

(Let's go)

Yuh, yuh, yuh

We want justice, we want change (Want change)

You want peace and no more pain (More pain, yeah)

To be equal, to be free (Yes)

Martin’s dream is what I need, yeah

We want justice, we want change (Yuh)

You want peace and no more pain (No more pain)

To be equal, to be free (We wanna be free)

Martin’s dream is what I need (Yeah)

Just don’t preach the gospel

Be the gospel

My country 'tis of thee

Sweet land of liberty

When will we finally see

We need a strong God?

Yeah

The government keep lying to me

Telling me that they come to set the people free
