Courage
Born again at the amen in the color of my brown skin
I fight for what is right I war against sin
Twilight twinkling, I have an inkling of righteousness’s
light
It ain’t black and white
Cause colors are God’s dazzling delight
Blood red sky azure
Love is courage giving more
Free in my equality
Until somebody tells me
(Have mercy Jesus!)
Get to the back of the bus
Or your career can just wait
Never mind debate
What do I do when I’m pulled over by the police?
I speak for the meek
My Lord turned the other cheek
All the Way to Cavalry
Every inch drenched in agony
I SEE THE REALITY OF THE CROSS
And here I ponder a world vain and insane
Courage dictates in the hate I do more than complain
Second sight may not be a perfect view
But I try to do what God would have me to do
Who will ascend to heaven?
Only a precious few
So, Lord grant me the courage to speak
To preach to teach to reach
Those perishing in the wasteland of woe
Who do not know
Jesus as Christ
And the courage of His perfect sacrifice
May I surrender all
And answer the call
