Can I Get a Witness
Ay yo, can I get a witness? Yeah
Ay yo, can I get a witness?
Anybody out there, I need to know, yo
Can I get a witness?
Can you feel me? We gone see, huh
Can I get a witness?
Ay check it out y'all... Ay yo
Can I get a witness?
A true worshipper of the Lord, livin' your life as a sacrifice...
Can I get a witness?
Lettin' your Light shine, by bein' the representative of Christ...
Can I get a witness?
A true worshipper of the Lord, livin' your life as a sacrifice
Can I get a witness?
Lettin' your Light shine, by bein' the representative of Christ...
So you wanna save the world?
Well, you gotta be fully equipped
It's a trip how we witness, so let me flip the script
And hip you to a revelation, expect to be checked, live
A new perspective to be effective
Because the way some act is kind of hostile
Beatin' folks over the head with the gospel
Man, you're makin' 'em more hit, and Jesus don't endorse it
His spirit is peaceable, so why you tryin' to force it?!
And if you only pass out tracts, then you will limit 'em
From what they need,
Which ain't for you to be condemnin' 'em
Shoutin' that they're goin' to hell to all the sinners
Ain't gone get it alone, see the wise are soul winners
God wants repenters, but that junk will have 'em dashin'
But God will draw 'em when we show 'em some compassion
Now ain't that what Jesus would do?
And we're supposed to imitate Him
Not try and degrade Him...
Can I get a witness?
A true worshipper of the Lord, livin' your life as a sacrifice...
Can I get a witness?
Lettin' your Light shine, by bein' the representative of Christ...
Can I get a witness?
A true worshipper of the Lord, livin' your life as a sacrifice
Can I get a witness?
Lettin' your Light shine, by bein' the representative of Christ...
You wanna be a witness? Don't be religious
You need to get wit' this
And I ain't talkin' 'bout no "Jehovah's Witnesses"
Walk upright, and see how many people you'll be reachin'
If you ain't livin' holy, they don't wanna hear your preachin'
Saints who think that they are savin' people, let me shift 'em
God is gonna draw 'em, all we have to do is lift Him
Through lifestyle worship, strivin' to make the sin cease
We either plant or water, God'll add the increase
Just be available and ready, on your humble, lowly post
So God can use ya, as you're lead by the Holy Ghost
To reach that lost soul that God loves
Be wise as serpents, harmless as doves
I'm tellin' you that the saints of God are important
The salt of the earth, and I don't mean Morton
But don't you lose your savor,
You're useless when your flavor declines
You're the light of the world, so let it shine...
Can I get a witness?
A true worshipper of the Lord, livin' your life as a sacrifice...
Can I get a witness?
Lettin' your Light shine, by bein' the representative of Christ...
Can I get a witness?
A true worshipper of the Lord, livin' your life as a sacrifice
Can I get a witness?
Lettin' your Light shine, by bein' the representative of Christ...
Paul became a Jew, with or without the Law
Weak and then some
Was all things to all men, so by all means he'd win some
And that is the approach that should be taken by me and you
The only God they'll know is the one they see in you
They're watchin' you, so your flesh, you need to fast away
And pray, lest by any means, you are a castaway
Here are suggestions, I'll help you out, like I'm your caddy
So they will see your good works, and glorify your Daddy:
Keep walkin' and prayin' in the Spirit, let Him lead and guide
Stay meek and in the Word, don't get caught in greed and pride
Make sure your flesh is fallin' as the Lord is steady risin'
Obey, and kick the Gospel and Law with no compromisin'
Reach your neighbor, co-worker, classmate, or your kin
Student, teacher, employer, employee, foe or friend
Whether it's night or day, in a house, or in a zoo!
Just be a witness, it don't matter where or when or who!
Don't lie or cuss, or be a Benedict Arnold
Or depressed, steal, cheat, gossip, fornicate, or act carnal
But be considerate, kind, share, 'cause that's what we're here fo'
Be courteous, and it won't hurt to smile and be cheerful
And give greetings, show mercy, because we're servin' the needy
Walk in love, I'm treatin' people like I want 'em to treat me
The bottom line is will they die and go to hell,
Or will that sinner live
That's up to God's representative...
