justin bergen – who do you follow? lyrics

justin bergen:

john 8:12
again jesus spoke to them, saying, “i am the light of the world. whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

i stand amazed in the presence
of jesus love and his luminescence
jesus said “i am the light of the world
and when i leave, you are the light of the world.”
what lights up the world?

[interlude]

justin bergen:

the son, with hand nailed scars
hung the sun, moon, and the stars
when i look at them
i’m reminded of the wis-m-n
i imagine the magi had much to study
god manifested the god-man all powerful
yet we treat him like our cosmic buddy
every sunset, every sunrise
the 27 million light sensitive cells in your eyes
you look but do not see
you hear but do not understand
the portrait he freehand
poured forth at his command
how great his power
his majesty, his might
he separated the day from the night
and today he separates people
consecrated as holy, set apart from evil
in isaiah 49:6 he said to israel
“i will make you as a light for the nations
proclaiming to the end of the earth my salvation.”
this is his redemption story, his plan
all for his glory, man to god, god to man
he takes a lowly race and places them in the foreground, a testimony of his power
god isn’t interested in building walls, he builds human hearts, including ours, our
only purpose on this earth is to glorify and reflect his light
why else do you think he called them israe-lites?
and light fights, it conquers death
it burns back the gloom
just try switching on some darkness and see if the light leaves the room
like mennonites rappin’, it just doesn’t happen
his pierced hands pierce scams of satan
peers stand to straighten
you out from all your religious views
you pray you don’t lose
but don’t lose, you won’t lose this light like pacquiao to mayweather
you may weather yet this storm
don’t forget his thorns
remember his promise! don’t doubt like a thomas or remain anonymous
what he said is that you and i who truly follow
will not walk in darkness, or burn out like apollo
his word is a lamp to my feet, it can’t be beat, i won’t stumble
and if i do, it’s just him teaching me to trust more and be humble
so trust jesus!
when we trust in him, what’s true of him defines us
he, like silver and gold refines us
jesus hurts us to heal us, jesus breaks us to bind us
when we were lost in l-stful living, he left heaven to find us
to save and to seek, taking that which was weak
despised, demoralized, bashed, battered and bruised, used and abused
he chooses you
who literally lettered “god is dead” on his doorpost
who held your heart’s desires as first and foremost
a wretch like you and a wretch like me
these are the people god wants to set free
so how can a city set on a hill remain hidden?
how can a heavenly healed patient remain bedridden?
the primary purpose of a lamp stand is to give light
so go, don’t give any place to the night
and it’s a dark knight, bruce wayne
but that wayne wanes in comparison
kylo lightsabers harrison
you were the chosen one!
you were supposed to destroy the dark side, not join them!
you were supposed to reject new ways of sinning, not coin them!
give unto caesar what is caesar’s, god said
and he gives you what’s his instead
he’ll go with you! he’ll never leave or forsake you! he is in you! every bone and sinew!
every sin you’ve committed is washed away! jesus was crucified, buried, and resurrected on the third day!
the light came into the world, and the darkness did not comprehend it
preach, let the gospel speak
god needs no man to defend it
he spoke existence into existence
he spoke blood into my veins
when you encounter something as large as the living god, you can’t stay the same!
it’s insane how he changes us
in this process of sanctification
in him was life and he laid it down for your salvation!
when you see that christ is life
you’ll realize that ball is not
and your desiigner jeans- brrrrat brrrat panda have gone to pot
cheesy rap references aside
there’s a reason jesus died
and then, rose up to prove that he has power, he’s alive
the cornerstone, jesus, the truth and the way
the life and the light of the world gone astray
his binding is light, and his burden is easy
he’s better than anything else that can please me
so when you feel empty, forgotten, and hollow
ask yourself simply, “who do you follow?”
