If it's hot give God the glory. If it's not then blame me.
Story behind the song
Jesus knew early on what he was going to do in life. I think it is an inspiration to others that we should also be what God has called us to be. Instead of people holding us back they should walk with us.
Lyrics
Walk with me
Every since I was just a young boy
I always chased my dreams
I know I’ma do my thing.
I know I’ma do my thing
Please don’t stand in my way.
I know what I’m suppose to be
Instead I hope you walk with me.
I hope ya’ll walk with me
Remember when Jesus got left in Jerusalem
Took a whole day before his parents started missin him
They went back and searched for 3 days
The whole time they were searchin you know they was going crazy
They found him the temple with the pharasis,
And the sadusies all around him on their knees
Listening to Jesus, wondering how’s this little kid teachin us
Mary said “When you were lost I thought you’d died,
hold my hand and you better never leave my side
Jesus said I was never lost mom but thank you,
But what you have to realize is the whole world I came to rescue
Every since I was just a young boy
I always chased my dreams
I know I’ma do my thing.
I know I’ma do my thing
Please don’t stand in my way.
I know what I’m suppose to be
Instead I hope you walk with me.
I hope ya’ll walk with me
When Jesus started his mission. He called some dudes that was fishin
And got a lot more to be Christians.
That’s a fancy way for saying that they followed him.
And he had a message that was winning
He told the crowd to stop sinning and start living
He told them to share the message they were giving
And invite others people to come and walk with him
But then he said the enemy will come and crucify me
And Peter said yeah first they’ll have to get by me
Jesus said in three times you’ll deny me
And when he wouldn’t let him go Jesus said Satan get behind me
Every since I was just a young boy
I always chased my dreams
I know I’ma do my thing.
I know I’ma do my thing
Please don’t stand in my way.
I know what I’m suppose to be
Instead I hope you walk with me.
I hope ya’ll walk with me
When Jesus was older
He had the weight of the world upon his shoulders
He was put upon a cross that was owed ya
But he took it like a lamb not like a soldier
And the Hung him up high to be ridiculed
To be spit upon and treated cruel
And they give him a crown with thornes instead of jewels
And one of the thieves beside him called him a fool
But the other theif cried Lord have mercy on me
And when you get to your kingdom please remember me
Jesus said today you will walk with me in eternity
And then Jesus died being what he was suppose to be.
Every since I was just a young boy
I always chased my dreams
I know I’ma do my thing.
I know I’ma do my thing
Please don’t stand in my way.
I know what I’m suppose to be
Instead I hope you walk with me.
I hope ya’ll walk with me
Walk with me believe in me follow me walk with me
Don’t hold me back just have my back
Walk with me
Don’t tell me what can’t be done, just cheer me on
Don’t trip me up, just lift me up
And walk with me
Don’t doubt me, tell others about me
Don’t hate instead have faith and walk with me.
And walk with me.
