The Gospel Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey, dad?
Hey, what's up, sonny?
Can you tell us the Gospel again?
(*laugh*) Of course I can, alright, you guys take a seat
But this time, start all the way from the beginning
Alright, I'll start all the way at the beginning
Just for you, at Genesis
You ready? Okay

[Verse: Bizzle]
God created man and gave him His commandment
Sat him in His garden with everything He planted
Said, "This is all yours, son, want it? You can have it
All except for this one, 'cause that one's just for daddy"
The Devil steps up in it right away with his deception
Said, "You can be a god if you just taste it, it's amazing
You won't die, God's a liar", throwing shade in His direction
That small seed of doubt forms a change in his perception
See, if he had nothing, he'd appreciate that one thing
God gave him everything, but he's focused on that one tree
Sin is here, in his fear, he covered up and hid
He covered up in leaves, God covered him with skins
Hold that thought, let's fast forward to Abel and Cain
Two brothers in the same field playing they lane
See, Cain tended the ground, Abel tended the sheep
Both made an offer to God, but Cain's fell incomplete
Now put a pen in that, let's hit the Passover down in Egypt
When God hears the cries of them beating down His people
Israel's enslaved, Pharaoh's saying they ain't leaving
Moses tells him God said it, but he still ain't want to free them
So, God tells Moses, "Here's the plan, pay attention
Tell my people they gon' need a lamb without a blemish
One day, you gon' get it, but for now, you just kill it
Take it home, smear it's blood on the door post of the entrance
See, Israel's my firstborn, and Israel's been taken
If he don't let my son go, his son ain't going to make it
The penalty is death, and I'm coming for the payment
Those covered in that blood'd be the only one's escaping"
Now, let's go back to Abraham, mobbing with his son Isaac
Faith isn't faith until it's tested, so, God tries him
Said, "I know how much you love your son, go and sacrifice him"
So Ab walks him up the mountain, straps him down and ties him
He doesn't really understand it, but he has faith
He knows that God's good, so, as commanded, he's grabbing his blade
As he goes to stab him, the Lord yells, "Wait!"
He looks over, and God sent a lamb in his place
Let's take a quick pause now before we get to Jesus
'Cause none of this'll click until you see just why we need Him
The Word of God says, "The wages for sin is death"
So, if sin is how you work, then death should be the check
There can be no forgiveness without the shedding of blood
The penalty must be paid if God is a righteous judge
We say, "Just let it slide", but, if someone killed your cousin
Would you call that judge righteous if his killer goes unpunished?
Or would you call him crooked? And we know the Lord ain't that
So, there's a death penalty, and someone has to pay that
The moment that you sin, your life has been indebted
And His mercy is the only reason He ain't yet collected
So, that's why they would sacrifice lambs in their places
But it didn't clear the debt, it was just a partial payment
Now, we gon' take a recap and see the Lord working
Nothing was an accident, it all has a purpose
Now, back to the beginning at the fall
Man sins, tries to fix it on his own, God covers him with skins
But, it never says what animal he's getting it from
All we know is, to cover man, he shed innocent blood
Now, remember Cain and Abel? Cain's offer was rejected?
You ever wonder why Abel's offer was accepted?
All I know is Cain offered the work of his hands
Abel tended the sheep, so, he must have offered a lamb
Now, look at Abraham and Isaac, are you seeing it now?
A ram in the bush sent to take the place of his child
'Cause Abraham had faith enough to give up his son
God would later do the same so that forgiveness would come
Back to the Passover, aw man, here we go with that lamb again
The innocent blood of the lamb is covering man again
You don't see the pattern or get what it means?
Then it all becomes clear when Jesus steps on the scene
"I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and end
I am the Lamb without blemish sacrificed for your sin
The Lamb of God, without sin, little children understand
You can't do it on your own, it is Me who covers man
I'm the one who took your place when death lifted up his hand
Gave you righteousness for faith
You're the one who broke the law, but it was I He sent to pay
Gave my life for those who hate me, I went quietly, and I ain't even try to beat the case
I'm the offer He accepts when your works get rejected
I'm the one who pleads your case before the judge in Heaven
Knew that you were guilty, but loved you enough to serve your sentence
The wages for sin is death, I died to expunge your record
See, I am the Passover, the wrath of God is waiting
Every life not covered by the blood'll be taken
I'm the way, the truth, the life, and I'll always be
I AM, I AM, beloved, it was always Me"
