[Intro]
It's the same thing
Just looking over the same things
Is it in my head?
God, I need Your help
'Cause I'm just not strong enough
Father, it's the same pain
It's the same things
Stumbling over and over again
[Chorus]
Teach me how, teach me
To overcome
Teach me to overcome
[Verse]
Let me start by saying
There's a lot of crazy stuff about my life that I don't understand
Twenty with no money
College calling like it's Uncle Sam
But I know the Father working all things for the betterment
To those who love Him
And that walk inside His ever perfect plan and perfect Man
But You're shaping me into a perfect man
Dirt and sin is what I'm made from
That's where it all began
So, here I am on my face, Lord
Father, I feel the sin
Pick me up, call my name out
And I answer again
I walk by faith, my eyes don't gotta see it
You told me I'd be a vessel and I settle down and believe it
Told me that they would know You
This crazy Bible I'm reading
It tells me I have the power to sow a seed and then reap it
See, people come to Jesus
I need it, Father, I need it
This world around me is dying
The bright and steady conceded
We're not defeated, an evil force is arriving
Father, just keep us clean
I know the Day is arriving that You come back
That You will overcome
[Chorus]
Teach me to overcome
Teach me to overcome
[Skit/Outro]
Listen, God, I don't care about no album
I don't care what people are saying
God, I just want to do what You want me to do
God, show me what You want me to do
Tell me how You want me to sound
God, I- just want this to be beautiful for You, God
Oh, You are the Holy God
You are the only God I want to know
I just want my life to be beautiful
So, I hope You think this is beautiful
'Cause this- this album is my prayer to You
And if not one person in this world likes it, God
I just pray that You look down and You smile
And You say, "Yeah my son, well done"
It's something that is beautiful1
