VERSE 1

The joy of the Lord is my strength and I’m stronger than ever
Stronger than leather / stronger than the stormiest weather
Stronger than Ali, Tyson, Foreman, and Mayweather / all put together
I know that I can praise Him forever / But the presence of God is so addictive
Making me hunger and thirst / and I don’t need no food or no liquid
It seems to me like I can never get enough of Him
Been trying to overdose but I can never get too much of Him
Been shaking and quaking / my soul knows I need it
A bag of weed or a bottle of liquor couldn’t please it
I must get higher / I feel like I’m in withdrawal
I gotta take another hit / see I don’t know about ya’ll
But I don’t wanna go without it / and I know how to get it
So I’m gone scream and shout it / I’m gonna use my voice
I’m gonna use my tongue / to praise the Most High
So I can get me some like …

CHORUS

Hallelujah….Hallelujah…Hallelujah…Hallelujah

Uh, Come on Jesus fill me flood me, kiss me hug me, touch me love me (4X)

VERSE 2

I wanna be his friend / I don’t wanna be no fan
Don’t really know Him but constantly cheering for him in the stands
I’ve gotta be closer than that / what kind of hope is in that?
I could’ve bought a Jesus poster for that
But I’ve gotta have my head on his bosom
Hearing His heart beat in my eardrum / spiritual rhythms
Heavens percussion / hear Him telling Eric He loves him
A God so loved the world he sent his only son production
The Fathers getting under my skin like liposuction
Ran into the Spirit and caught a Holy Ghost concussion
I’ve gotta get this praise off my chest like breast reductions
Sorry for the interruption but um….

VERSE 3

Where you from? / Well I’m a residence of high places
The streets they ‘Bling Bling’ but you don’t have to drive places
My hood is all mansions / Monumental size places / beautiful
I can’t even begin to describe places
In America, we’ve got potholes in the blacktops
And rundown buildings that get turned into crack spots
I’m not talking about no field of dreams
You be kinda surprised if you can even find a field that’s green
So I stay on cloud nine , ten , eleven
Sitting in them high places with my Father in Heaven
See, I’m in this world but not of it
So I leave my prayer closet and I take His presence in public
Escaping corruption that’s in this world through lust
Resurrection life power on everything that I touch
I made Jesus my best friend / not my crutch
That’s why I love to praise Him so much
