Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I know God is watchin' from above (From above)
Sometimes I wonder what I'd do without His love (Without His love)
And although life is full of adversities (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah)
I know He's with me (Ooh), He's with me (Ooh)
I know someday, someday, someday
Someday, someday, someday (Someday)
Someday, someday, someday
He'll come get me
[Verse 2]
I wanna walk with You, follow in Your footsteps
Talk with You to find out where my good's kept
I've been gone away from home for so long
Seems like everything I try to do without You go wrong
I'm confused about a lot of things, but not with my fate
So I'm depending on Your Holy Ghost to guide me the way
See, I'm a sinner in the third degree
Ain't afraid to admit, 'cause I've seen **** worse than me
Who am I to judge a man when I'm a man myself?
In the dark, tryna get me some help (You know?)
I went from pawn to king, king back to pawn
Doin' my best to try to ease out the storm (Uh-huh)
I know that every tunnel's gotta end at the light
And I prepared a new beginning in Christ (My life)
My life is like a jigsaw dullin' in time
And as I'm thumbin' through this jigsaw puzzle of mine
[Verse 3]
I know God is watchin' from above (Above, above, above)
Sometimes I wonder what I'd do without His love (Without His love)
And although life is full of adversities (Oh, oh, yeah)
I know He's with me (Yes, He is), He's with me (Know, oh, oh)
I know someday, someday, someday (Someday)
Someday, someday, someday (Ooh, whoa)
Someday, someday, someday (He's gonna come get me)
He'll come get me
[Verse 4]
Someday, someday, someday (Someday)
Someday, someday, someday (Ooh, ooh, whoo)
Someday, someday, someday (Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh, ooh)
He'll come get me
[Verse 5]
It seems like every other Wednesday, I'm attendin' a wake
But I don't question You, I know that's Your way (Okay?)
I know we livin' for the minute, and there's a moment in time
We've gotta leave here, 'cause that's Your design
And nothing lasts forever, not even spirit, only Your word
That's what I live by, 'cause that's what I heard
I wasn't there when You rose from the dead
Or when You parted the sea
I never seen You, but still I believe
How you explain the moon, the sky, the stars, and the rain
The sun and the sea, the Earth without form, facin' the deep?
In darkness, challenging the powers that be
It's impossible for scientists to make up the seeds
To make up the trees
So why we turn our backs on the truth?
It's Heaven or Hell, a point we seem to hide from the youth
And I was singin' this morning, got touched by the Spirit
So I wrote it down for the homies to hear it
[Verse 6]
I know God is watchin' from above (I know, watchin' from above)
Sometimes I wonder what I'd do without His love (I don't know)
And although life is full of adversities (Whoa, oh, life)
I know He's with me (He's with me), He's with me (With me)
I know someday, someday, someday
Someday, someday, someday (Whoa, someday, ay)
Someday, someday, someday
He'll come get me
[Verse 7]
Lord, I know that I've been wrong
They say a man is lost without a prayer, without a song
So I'm singin' on my knees, 'cause I believe You'll keep me strong
Till it's time for me to bring it home
But until it's time for me to bring it home
I'll be out in these streets, hangin' in the hood
Even gangsters need to pray, 'cause when I pray it's understood
That I got flaws about myself, I can't make it by myself
I need the Heaven's help, I wanna follow in Your footsteps
Done seen the strongest man bow down to a higher power
And given all his glory to God, 'cause God towers
Over all, and in that, I saved this prayer
For all my homies that's been trapped out there
That's stuck in they ways
It's different now than back in the day
So fuck what they say, 'cause ain't no comin' back from the grave
So when the gun goes pop and the lights go out
Then you'll understand what I'm talkin' about
[Verse 8]
I know God is watchin' from above (I know God)
Sometimes I wonder what I'd do without His love
(Tell me what I'd do without His love)
And although life is full of adversities (Ooh, oh, yeah)
I know He's with me (He's with me), He's with me
(He's with me, yeah)
I know someday, someday, someday (Someday)
Someday, someday, someday (Comin' back for me)
Someday, someday, someday (Whoa, yeah, yeah)
He'll come get me (Someday)
[Verse 9]
Someday, someday, someday (Someday)
Someday, someday, someday (Oh, oh, oh, someday, ay)
Someday, someday, someday
He'll come get me
[Verse 10]
I just wanna be Your soldier
I just wanna be Your vessel, whoo, Lord
I just wanna be Your soldier
I just wanna be Your vessel, whoo, Lord
I just wanna be Your soldier
I just wanna be Your vessel, whoo, Lord
I just wanna be Your soldier
I just wanna be Your vessel, whoo, Lord
