Sakrifice - On Notice Lyrics

Once you profess your faith, you put the world on notice
They waitin' to see you slip though you're not the oldest
It's a cold world but to some it's the coldest
Remember the quote is "With Christ ain't nothin' hopeless"

It's vicious when a Christian stumbles
It's like the love's been muzzled but I guess that's the Christian struggle
Don't take it personal they just want proof there's no
God whose merciful in the midst of troubles
You sinnin is truth givin' them beyond reasonable doubt
When your actions aren't matchin' what you even speakin' about
But they don't really know all the inner battles ya fight
Walkin' on the gravel with Christ expose dark shadows in light
Maybe never read Philippians 2:12 or understand it's implications
Or the fact Satan's against you and his imps are waitin'
These demonic agents will do more than try your patience
Wanna see you satisfy flagrant cravins that is why their blatant
In their motives so when people notice you back slide
They're not just judgin' you but also the Holy One that's why
After conversion and the act of being baptized
Conviction gives direction spiritual discretion's advised

Once you profess your faith, you put the world on notice
They waitin' to see you slip though you're not the oldest
It's a cold world but to some it's the coldest
Remember the quote is "With Christ ain't nothin' hopeless"

Once you profess your faith, you put the world on notice
They waitin' to see you slip though you're not the oldest
It's a cold world but to some it's the coldest
Remember the quote is "With Christ ain't nothin' hopeless"

And I've been in the hot seat with the spotlight shinnin'
They'd rather see me do bad things than watch me rhymin'
Bout Jesus preachin' being gospel minded
Want me to lose my grip and fall from this rock I'm climbin'
And ain't no safe space when your music is faith-based
Between the Kingdom and the World your in a strange place
For real between two hills leaves me in a tight spot
Where Matthew 5:29 got me lookin' like Cyclops
Too street for the church too church for the street
Only if they hear me curse are they concerned with my speech
I see how they judgin' me
In Christ I'm blessed to change and His perfection game makes me complete, puzzle piece
Credit my parents cause both of 'em planted that seed
Proverbs 22:6 now I'm a man that believes
But that doesn't mean I'm the standard of clean
My righteousness was that of filthy rag slashed at the seams

Once you profess your faith, you put the world on notice
They waitin' to see you slip though you're not the oldest
It's a cold world but to some it's the coldest
Remember the quote is "With Christ ain't nothin' hopeless"

Once you profess your faith, you put the world on notice
They waitin' to see you slip though you're not the oldest
It's a cold world but to some it's the coldest
Remember the quote is "With Christ ain't nothin' hopeless"

But the notion of these quotes written is hope driven
Check the perspective of heads that actually know Christians
Whose shown livin not for they own givin'
Them glimpses of a real God inside a soul with them
Obedient to the commands immediate they stand
For the Faith displayed by the Son even at the hands
Of skeptics who say what they believe's distorted and biased
Not inclusive but intrusive for sure they won't buy it
The change in us isn't instantaneous
Rejection can turn violent makin' it dangerous
Scriptures explain there'll be days of rain then sunshine
Hold on to the promises of God finish the race on His time
And if they catch you slippin' just know His grace sufficient
Who He is just far too great for us to say it isn't
Every day there's a chance, it's not too late to witness
He put the World on notice when He overcame its system

Once you profess your faith, you put the world on notice
They waitin' to see you slip though you're not the oldest
It's a cold world but to some it's the coldest
Remember the quote is "With Christ ain't nothin' hopeless"

Once you profess your faith, you put the world on notice
They waitin' to see you slip though you're not the oldest
It's a cold world but to some it's the coldest
Remember the quote is "With Christ ain't nothin' hopeless"
