This song explains why I do this music.
This music changes lives!
Lyrics
In This Game For Christ
(Eternal-M.O.G.)
Hook
I don’t do this to get my name in lights/
Fortune and fame is not my aim in life/
I know the One who holds the words that pertain to life/
And He can change your life I’m in this game for Christ/
Verse 1
Some Christians question whether it’s right to use worldly music/
But my music ain’t worldly it’s holy inspired by the Spirit/
And my lyrics make it clear that I rhyme for Jesus/
Preachin’ over these beats to reach non-believers/
These streets need us to seek ‘em by all possible means/
So I give ‘em the gospel through these songs that I sing/
To you these songs that I sing may not be typical Christian/
But God gave me this gift so imma use it for Him/
And if you choose to condemn what I’m doin’ you need to show me/
Where God calls this a sin in His Law and Testimony/
Where there’s no law there’s no transgression so with God’s blessin’/
I keep shootin’ this weapon in the enemy’s direction/
Bible lessons over beats you can bump in your jeeps/
Cars and trucks or at the bars in the clubs or the streets/
I do this for thugs and g’s pimps and playas/
To me it’s just another way to lead the world to the Savior/

Verse 2
I’m not in this for money but I’m in it for ministry/
Spirit anointed lyrics takin’ over this industry/
Exposin’ the enemies lies by goin’ to the lost/
To show ‘em why they’re lost through the Law then show ‘em the cross/
I do it all through spiritual songs with spiritual lyrics/
Then pray the Spirit convicts the lost souls who hear it/
My foes don’t wanna hear it they fear I keep ‘em paranoid/
‘Cause they know the Lord’s truth does not return void/
Once deployed it will accomplish all that the Lord pleases/
And the Lord wants us all to call on the Lord Jesus/
And leave it all for Jesus who through His blood freed us/
From sin then He rose again and death was defeated/
Nothin’ left for you and me to do but take His gift by faith/
And prove our faith is true by turnin’ from them wicked ways/
And learnin’ the Christian way walkin’ as Jesus walked/
Enabled by God’s grace to daily carry the cross/
Hook x 2
Verse 3
I don’t do this for gold jewels or cars/
I’m not itchin’ for recognition ambitious to be a star/
But I’m a Christian commissioned to show you the path to life/
And I’ll show you the path that’s right as an ambassador for Christ/
It’s like God is pleadin’ through me for you to be reconciled to Him/
‘Cause He made a way to set you free from your wildest sins/
And become a child of His no longer a criminal/
He gave His Son to die and pay a debt that He didn’t owe/
That’s what He did to show his love for everybody/
While we were still sinners Christ died for the ungodly/
Now the ungodly can become the righteousness of God/
Through Jesus Christ receive eternal life and never die/
But you better die to the world sin and your flesh/
‘Cause if you sow to the flesh you reap corruption and death/
But if you sow to keep in step with the Spirits direction/
You’ll reap the blessin’s of Christ and life in the resurrection/
Hook x 2
