I been on a quest for an anthem
I wind up in this mansion
With a hundred thousand rooms all full of second chances
Walking up the campus, I approach the upper room
With the flame from a lamp I can see an empty tomb
That's imagery-we turning literal to liturgy
The transcendent Holy Spirit turning Law to liberty
And wives commit to husbands just like an ancient custom
The prophets tell the power structure bout a God of justice
Ain't that something, mercy gon triumph over judgment
His blood makes black Hebrew Israelites redundant
This a priesthood, last supper to the marriage supper how we feast good
Revelation watching Clint Eastwood
That old man dies, put me in a Gran Torino
Let the Son of Man touch the water till it's vino
This one you can lean on, as I conclude the keynote
My soul getting cleaner than some sea glow-stepping like I'm
Name the man you trusted the most, then adjust it with this quote
"I will never leave you" with His signature in bold
No man could ever sign it, see they can't afford the signage
When the signature is blood, and the quotes from the Designer
Sun shine, when it's cloudy you appreciate that Sonshine
Listening to Swoope is just the upside
I been on some Walter Hawkins as I'm getting older
Safety when I see the battle's over
It's the winner's circle
See every Kanye need a Virgil but only Jesus turn a pregnant virgin to a virtue
They can't ever hurt you when grace don't have reversal
And praise is like rehearsal and prayer don't have a curfew
It's the paragon, sometimes the safest place to be aware of God
Is to find the safest pace for a marathon
Faith is at the paramount, peace for the prodigals
Kings from the Chronicles, we singing with a common goal
