Redemptive History (Evangel)
-U want to see if I'm good here's a tasteful,
to be grateful, when u were faithless I was faithful!
In this relationship, no faith would slip,
cuz I kept u in my gracious grip!
Memory lane, let's take this trip, see my heart and emotion,
to preserve my precious, I parted the ocean!
A God of devotion is this Lord above,
biding time with enduring love!-
Let's reminisce back to Genesis 3, before you were sentenced to flee, with re-entrance thru a penitence fee!
I'm talking before the crisis,
when you were created upright and righteous, and made in my likeness! Where each day should've resulted in praise,
but instead I was betrayed with adulterous ways!
We were down like cement, and u were my crowned achievement,
‘til u broke our bound agreement!
Betrayed by your treason, gave me a reason,
to depart but only parted ways for a season!
I put u out the door to correct u,
even gave u law to direct u, and swore to protect u!
Though I placed you outside of •
the garden, with guarding, I'm Jehovah Jireh, your faithful provider! To be frank like Ballpark, see the fall marked u all dark,
but I put a spark in your heart.
-U want to see if I'm good here's a tasteful,
to be grateful, when u were faithless I was faithful!
In this relationship, no faith would slip,
cuz I kept u in my gracious grip!
Memory lane, let's take this trip, see my heart and emotion,
to preserve my precious, I parted the ocean!
A God of devotion is this Lord above,
biding time with enduring love!-
I could've bounced when I caught u with the python,
but my everlasting love won't let bygones be bygones!
See my feelings were greater•
for you, but true, that villainous hater, I'm a deal with him later!
Mr. Talk fast, your small gaffe was all laughs,
now it's all wrath when we cross paths!
To me you wouldn't keep listening and keep strutting,
cuz the world was deep whispering it's sweet nuthings!
I always came to your help, this should've awestruck ya,
still you tried to make a name for yourself, with that tall structure!
Not asking for much, just wanted you to travel,
and build on my word like Scrabble!
But then you pull a stunt like Babel,
I had to use tough love, and put my hand in it like stuffed gloves!
Your sin was ageless, your actions wage death,
I had every right to exit stage left, but kept my rage checked!
So to give you hope, and fix what's broke,
promised to clean you inside out like you drank liquid soap!
So from the garden mess I would start to bless,
u from your heart of stone and call u home with a heart a flesh!
-U want to see if I'm good here's a tasteful,
to be grateful, when u were faithless I was faithful!
In this relationship, no faith would slip,
cuz I kept u in my gracious grip!
Memory lane, let's take this trip, see my heart and emotion,
to preserve my precious, I parted the ocean!
A God of devotion is this Lord above,
biding time with enduring love!-
So when u took the bad route, see I never I had doubts,
if I wasn't committed I would've spazzed out!
See your inconsistency throughout history,
your faithlessness with my faithfulness is a mystery!
Not only when u had victory, but I'd stick with thee,
thru Babylonian captivity!
Remember u against the pagan nations raging,
who kept your back on numerous occasions?
Remember how u killed the Philistine,
still I had to send a prophet to spill the beans of your illest scheme! Your source of deliverance, yet u complained
on the course of your pilgrimage, got lost in the wilderness!
Kept in your lies and deception, Jacob,
one day you're gonna wake up and rise to perfection!
I don't bring up faults just to rub it in,
but remember when u lost the ark of the covenant!
My heart wasn't loving it, but these equated,
to seeing life without me so I'm appreciated!
And indeed we made it thru our rough past,
cuz like hair on your upper lip I knew faith in your heart I must stash! Now I got u on the brink of deliverance,
remember how I used to wink at your ignorance!
‘Til I appointed one to judge, and put u down cuz I missed u,
this is your last chance u can't tap dance around the issue!
From where Adam had fell, well, He spelled hell,
now your my mademoiselle!
The cross was serious, but here it is,
that was just our courting period, with awesome myriads!
Of angels rejoicing, for my boo's been made pure
and cured from dangerous poison!
Us forever standing, won't abandon, you're never lonely,
receive your hand in the ceremony!
'Til then, know the one high above with undying love is watchful,
and I got u, preach the gospel!
-U want to see if I'm good here's a tasteful,
to be grateful, when u were faithless I was faithful!
In this relationship, no faith would slip,
cuz I kept u in my gracious grip!
Memory lane, let's take this trip, see my heart and emotion,
to preserve my precious, I parted the ocean!
A God of devotion is this Lord above,
biding time with enduring love!-
