All God's Children

I’m praying that my mama
Don’t ever fall off the deep end
Praying that when she hears this song
She finds her healin’
For my cousin Dominique
Behind bars as a felon
I’m praying that she hears this too
Shout out to my grandma’s
Sunday school classes
And her readin’ glasses
Wishing I was rich and famous
And I can buy her houses
She lost my grandpapa this year
And I know that it’s hard
But at least he lived a good life
Oh glory to God

Yahweh sing His praise
‘Till the walls fall down
And if the walls don’t fall down
Sing His praise anyhow
You know my daddy was a gangster
God turned it around
Now my daddy is a gangster
With a robe and a crown

Hey we’re all God’s children
We all need a resurrection
A little taste of Heaven
He’ll set us free
Hey we were all created
To be a little complicated
Ain’t nobody perfect
He’ll set us free

Oh my brother told me
He was a believer
I can see it in the future
Prophesy ’till it happens
Givin’ up is not an option
My uncle Jeff still drinks
Until he falls on his face
But God’s hand is not short
And it’s not too late
Pray for the pastors
Pray for the sinners
Doubters and believers
Everything in between
If we struggle let’s struggle
But look out for each other
We don’t know what we go through
But we know we’re the same

Hey we’re all God’s children
We all need a resurrection
A little taste of Heaven
He’ll set us free
Hey we were all created
To be a little complicated
Ain’t nobody perfect
He’ll set us free

Pick up the phone and forgive them
‘Cause it’s worth it
Tell the person that you love
That you love them
Follow the dreams
That somehow you laid aside
Be yourself walkin’ all the way
Into the light
Before they’re dead and they’re gone
Give them roses
‘Cause there’s a gift in every day
And every moment
The only way that I know
To redeem the time
Is make the best of the present
Here and now
