Wrote It This Way // 君に 伝えたい こ と

[Verse 1: Timothy Brindle]
I’m glad as I write raps and I’m hyped
‘cause I’m actually right next to my African wife
Our kids Black and they’re White
But the last thing at night
That we recite is we’re ONE: grafted in Christ
Cause our Master delights in great variety
Look to creation--the plain eye can see:
In flowers He made, styles in array
His power displayed in Jew and Gentile that He saves
It’s not just American but Amish and Arabic
Diverse is His Church but we (all) Honor and cherish Him
He accomplished this very thing--at the Cross--the death He died
He bought His multi-ethnic Bride (Rev. 5:9!)
It’s the Covenant of Abraham where every Nation, Clan
And race of man will praise the Lamb in His Sacred Land (Gen. 17:1-8= Rev. 7:9-12 + Rev. 21:1-4)
Say, “O the depths of His Riches and precious His Wisdom displayed” in: ...“page after page, I wrote it this way”...

[Verse 2: Mike]
Ya’ll should see the countenance of those that we speak with
All ready to challenge us, cause they don’t agree with
Something we expounded on, that’s making their teeth grit
Armenians, Calvinists, does the Scriptures teach this?
To some we are counterfeit, cause tongues we don’t speak with
Even been surprised by some, who won’t even eat with
Us because we countered their, doctrinal beliefs in
Israel and the Covenant, God able to keep them?
Some refuse to fellowship, Hanukkah or Christmas
Is worship irrelevant, does it make a difference?
We’re so bent on pettiness, eternity creeps in
Souls of men are perishing entering the deep pit
Check out what the Bible says, back when Paul beseeched men
Found in the Fourth Chapter in the passage of Ephesians
Eleven through Sixteen, bickering, we play on the same team
Listen to the great King say...“page after page, I wrote it this way”

[Verse 3: Stephen the Levite]
Christ’s blood has identified us
Doesn’t uniform us, but it unifies us
We can be diverse but, still not be divided
We would be deformed if, everyone was like us
Imagine a body, only made of eyes, what
Would you use for walkin’, tell me how you write stuff
Who would do the talkin’, if there’s only sight, none
There would be a problem
Yeah you say I’m right but
Still you want us all to, come in with a tie plus
Fit in with your culture, I can see the pride ‘cause
You just wanna alter, who we are in Christ but
We’re bein’ conformed to, His image and likeness
Plus He was incarnate, meanin’ He defines what
It is to be part of, culture and be righteous
You don’t really want it, rather demonize us
Take it to the Author, he’s gonna say... “page after page, I wrote it this way”

[Verse 4: Tony]
Many different callings, many forms of service
Everything is all in, His eternal purpose
Yes the Lord is sovereign, we just see the surface
It's because we're fallen, selfish and imperfect
Someone's doing awesome; we hate to see them flourish
Wish we were exalted, we wanna be first just
Read the words of Paul to the Corinthian Church First
Correspondence, 12:18 is the verse To
Want another's office, and covet is godless
Ain’t no superstars in God's Kingdom we're servants
Some stars seem large and are visible to all men
Other stars so far that we can't even discern them
Even hidden stars it pleased the Lord to furnish
For the glory of God who sees they are burning
So we mustn’t squabble to be seen or be heard But
In unity worship, the Word says...“page after page, I wrote it this way”
