If it's hot then give God the glory. If it's not then blame Mitch.
I'm Joe Johnson a local United Methodist Pastor. Before I felt God calling me into the ministry I thought I was going to be a rap artist. For 8 years I did nothing with music until my wife introduced me to a group called "The Gospel Gansters" in 1998. It was an eye opening experience. I was amazed to see people using rap for the glory of God. That day I picked up paper and pen and I haven't put it down yet.

Story behind the song
When I first started Christian Rap Music I was inspired by a group called Sackcloth Fashion. They inspired this song.
Lyrics
First thing that comes to mind Words don’t describe How I feel inside About God just so amazing So I say what first comes to mind What first comes to mind is… -Dang Dang Dang What’s up what’s up nothing much just tryna hang Just trippin and flipping talking abou God singin dang Dang’s an expression of surprise wonder and awe. If I’m rap I’ll rap about God or not raap Dang God is good all the time all the time God is good. He saved me up in the church and sent me to work up in the hood. I didn’t think I could rap once I was called to preach But now I’m back on the mic thumping beats tryna teach. When I say dang please don’t take offense It’s just I’ve seen God’s grace love and that’s just a glimpse of his He’s the real thing baby, no if ands of maybe’s And he sent his son Jesus to die and to save me God’s the greatest of all after him there’s non left Dang I had to catch my breath Dang he’s an on-time God ever late for a thing God’s so good makes me wanna rap make me wanna sing. -Dang Dang Dang I know this aint your average church song on Sunday mornig But God calls us to praise him and also heed the warning You reap what you sow I’m sowing seeds of praise I’ll be a soldier for God for the rest of my days Ready of anything I’m down withit With God on my side I know together we can hit it I aint tryna swear to get a rise But God’s so good I can’t believe my eyes But I look back in the Bible history If God did it for them then he can do it for me He’s faithful today like he was long ago Was there for Shadrack, mesack and Nebindego Thrown in the firey furnance for loving the Lord Refused to bow down to the idol when the trumpets where heard The king looked in the furnace saw 4 dudes praying, so shocked at God’s power he was over heard saying -Dang Dang Dang Now the Israelites were at war with the Philistines The Philistine champion was a giant the biggest ever seen He said I’ll beat your best fighter then we’ll enslave ya You might as well give up now because your God wont save ya From this whopping I’m about to start given I’ma beat ya feed you to the dogs while ya still livin None of the warriors moved they were scared But a shepherd boy named David said I’ll take your dare He said God helped me to protect the flock And he’ll help me defeat you cuz God is my rock David let go of the sling and threw the rock God took the rock and made it hit the mark It sunk right in the giants forehead Before he hit the ground he was already dead Not a sound came from the crowd Until someone dared to say out loud. Words don’t describe How I feel inside About God just so amazing So I say what first comes to mind What first comes to mind is… -Dang Dang Dang Written by Joseph Johnson (inspired by Sackcloth Fashion) Music by Allrounda
