Think about
who, what, when?
a society
more foolish than
ever before
and here you sit
surrounded by
weakness, sheep
why, why, why?
i desperately cry
but within
this grand design
there is power
it’s yours and mine
it doesn’t take
a queen to move
just a peasant girl
with motivation proves
she can make
a giant change
so much is broken
we must rearrange
I charge you all
it’s time to go
to do some work
it’s time to show
[chorus]
you’re beautiful
you’re bold
you’re strong
behold
this is time for
a new covenant
with us who
God has sent
[verse]
it’s time to
clean it up
this mess
while we’re looking up
still waiting
for you
in the clouds
we are calling to you
among sinful crowds
be still and know
that I am God
so we are still,
still faithful
still focused
still denying hocus, pocus
the earthly remedies
only last a second
but God and your healing
save us from Armageddon
you promise in Revelation
the church of philadelphia
we will be kept
outta here before the shaken
of evil is swept
into the depth
of hell
God, your promises
are written down in love
and so I keep my eyes
directed up above
perhaps for a moment
such as this
[chorus]
you’re beautiful
you’re bold
you’re strong
behold
this is time for
a new covenant
with us who
God has sent
[verse]
remember, my prayer.
were we there?
when the globe was made round?
when the land was created?
when the sea came rushing down
where we there to see
the stars hung in the sky?
the vastness of the universe?
each planet passing by?
were we there?
when the whales of the deep
dove and flew,
did we forget? I’m asking you!
were we there?
did we help, assist?
did he need us?
wait for this
the answer is no.
he only desired the love we show
in His divine majesty
he spoke a word
we came to be
and here I sit
upon this chair
typing words
in the air
and you can hear
my spirit
my heart
[chorus]
you’re beautiful
you’re bold
you’re strong
behold
this is time for
a new covenant
with us, who
[verse]
God has sent
use me Father
Use me today
Use me for good
That’s what I pray.
