And this for the saints who relate
And you're going through the gates
Cross now but know that the glory awaits
Body old and decayed, stone thrown no lame throw
First is the rain but next is the rainbow
If I say so I do, let the aim grow
We bear abuse for the Truth in our plain clothes
Same old, so the Lord is extolled
Read the Psalter and Psalms, a source to this song like
The pain that we carry in our body is here to serve the Body
His using this jalopy
And so I know that the truth that He has got me
Enter my inside, showing Jesus He is not weak
Na, His my strength when I'm spent
Even if I'm not my spidey senses will sense
The suffering I bear now here's for a purpose
Embodying His purchase
So my suffering's a servant
All I see, is pain mixed up with rain, every day it stays the same but
My praise ain't gonna change in any big way 'cuz
All I need, is Christ my strength and I'm convinced, while suffering now He offers me
A hope in the sense that I'm content, while showing His, All I Need
The pain's bore for a season/onboard is a thought and a feeling
That this pain's a fortunate grieving
So I rely on my Saviour and see Him
I get that from Stephen who saw the Son as they beat him
So in a sense get a sense of that
A shame 'cuz some leaders wanna censor that
You can't censor facts that's required for the game
For the saints who are going through the fire and the flames
It's required for your faith, yeah I've tasted
Death's lessons ain't a blessing for the faithless
His working bad for our good, God's gracious
We turn faces to Him in amazement
There's no evasion, rather embracing
Sufferings a tool God uses to chasten
This for people in the pews and the layman
And so you know what to do, praise Him
I know a couple people who embody this
So it's obvious that suffering ain't all it is
There's more that's what I am calling it
Now this is more than homaging
But challenge and encouragement
When Temi's mum spoke my heart rose in acknowledgment
And I don't front when I say this G
Your strong faith in the Lord show my greatest need
Much more than me know you can play in key
Take that keyboard away and give praise indeed, because
(All I Need) is Christ moving
Eyes off Him and I stay in precise ruin
Cuz when my dad died it was suffering like no other but
I was cross-eyed and surely so was my mother
Or else we would have fell in despair and I mean it
My sisters can testify in agreement (amen)
So despite all the pain I see
I put my hands up and say God's all I need
