Commissioned Back In The Saddle
Into rap
We saw you a year ago
At the convention
You were flying high
Not to mention
Your testimony was strong
You even stood up
And sang a song
Knowing full well
This is not a ritual
Your walk with Christ
Was spiritual
A bible in one hand
Track in the other
A witness in the streets
But oh my brother
What happened?
Did you miss the mark?
Did you fall short?
You say the race is not fun
What hinders you now
That you do not run?
I know you heard it said
If at first you don't succeed
Get back up and try it again
Well it's easier to say
Than it is to get it done
You just keep on praying
You just keep on staying
You find out that
You can be the one
You will never give in
To the devils call
You'll be ready to get up
When you take a fall
Now you should've known
That you are not alone
You just keep on praying
And you just keep on staying
You'll find out that
You can be the one
I know that sometimes it gets hard
You remember never give in
Look up to God, He is your help
He knows your weakness
And He'll provide a way of escape
Just keep on praying
For you'll find
Quitters never win
Winners don't give in
You just wait on Him
You will find
Promises are true
What He says He'll do
Rap:
Mr. Christian, Mrs. Saint
We say you can
Don't say you cant
It's not the one
Who finished first my friend
But it's the one who makes it to the end
So go on and confess up
Your debt is paid
The Lord will clean
The mess up that you made
It's not a license to sin
But one to get free
We told you time and again
You got the victory
Get back, get back
Get back up in the saddle
Get back, get back
Get back up in the saddle
Get back, get back
Get back up in the saddle
Ohhh, get on up
Ohhh, get on up
Just may fall but a few times
But he gets back up
With the right mind
Just may fall but a few times
But he gets back up with the right mind (repeat)
Get back, get back
Get back up in the saddle
