[English]

It's souls over streams, souls over streams

Oh oh oh, ya ya, ya ya ya

We must no longer walk as the Gentiles do

That is wrong and it ain't for you

Gotta walk like Christ Jesus

Gotta see the end through

The old self is deceitful, it's the devil lies

We are changed and renewed, in the spirit of your mind

I was walking in my sin, I got my head straight

Got the armour of God, I got my breastplate

Righteousness on me and my feet got the Gospel of Peace

So I can't be afraid, I got the shield of faith

And I feel his grace, everything's gon be okay

And a belt of truth, keeping me from the world's beliefs

They gon try to tell me my God's make-belief

They don't understand sins from Adam and Eve

But through Christ, we can be redeemed

Ephesians 6:17

The word of God is so sharp it stays with me

Helmet of salvation, cause Jesus is saving

We know the truth, he is the proof, and it's never changing

We must no longer walk as the Gentiles do

That is wrong and it ain't for you

Gotta walk like Christ Jesus

Gotta see the end through

The old self is deceitful, it's the devil lies

We are changed and renewed, in the spirit of your mind

You call yourself a sinner, but that's so false

You were made a Saint by the Son of God

Didn't you know, didn't you know

I don't wanna ever fall without you

God I know that you the truth

I don't care what they gon say

Cause my faith makes mountains move

They forget what he did to Saul

Took a sinner, changed him to Paul

He used to kill Christians

Then he gave his life to God

He can do it all for you

Gotta know that biblical truth

Cause Christ is enough, no matter Greek or a Jew

Jehovah-Jireh

Refiner, fire

You the fighter

Got me when I was low

Jehovah-Jireh

Son stood in the fire

Protected your children

Had no scorch on their clothes

We must no longer walk as the Gentiles do

That is wrong and it ain't for you

Gotta walk like Christ Jesus

Gotta see the end through

The old self is deceitful, it's the devil lies

We are changed and renewed, in the spirit of your mind
