Husky Ft. Joshua C. Edwards - Good & Faithful Servant lyrics

rate me

Verse 1

Lord, I

Want you to be pleased with me,

I want you to congratulate

The fact that I act in faith

And I never backed away.

My faith did never fluctuate

Gone tomorrow, but here today

Always kept my eye on you,

Your will for me, up to date

Walking in your footsteps

Following right behind 'em

Kept you in my sight

Cos this life gets kinda blinding

This world did never take over

Served you with my full heart

Never had two masters,

Heart never split in two parts

Could you say that I'd say 'yes'

If death did confront me?

Just like 'She' they pulled the trigger,

Or just like Paul they jumped me

Always shouting praise to you

Even when them trials came

Through persecution, I weren't losing

Dealt them in Jesus' name

Always had the double edge

To keep me up when I lost the legs

Searched the word, your voice I heard

And followed every word you said

And though it was small and still

It's like your voice was audible

I planted seeds to grow to fruit

Though I never saw em all

Chorus

What will they say about me, when I'm dead and gone?

Lord, I want you to say I was your good and faithful servant,

Cos I don't care what they say, it's only you I want

Lord, I want you to say I was your good and faithful servant!

Verse 2

Faith like from the Hebrews

11 I think's the chapter

Could you put my name among them

Being faith the major factor?

Even when I made mistakes

I never stayed in guilt for long

Though I fell, and guilt I felt

I always turned to praise and song

I never let it hold back

I never let it hold me down

The cross is done; so I'm your Son

Once was lost but now I'm found

Every opportunity

Just like it was the last

If I received your word, the person heard

When they walked past

Never strove for riches

But worked hard for a wage

Knew the need for money

But knew it would fade away

So I held on to your promises

Indestructible truths

Scrapped youthful desires

And got strapped to the booth

Ready spreading gospel lessons

Changing where the lost had led 'em

Blind leading the blind

Before they opened their eyes

Followed where your passion led me

Noticed where the burdens heavy

Looked for open doors

And only went where you had sent me

Chorus

Verse 3

Could you say that I was wise?

Though scripture learnt and memorized

Was my reaction towards action?

Did my life reflect the Christ?

Holy Spirit dwells within

Changed when I was told this

Seek the Holy Spirit, spit with Him

And speak with boldness

I only boasted in you

Completely focused on you

If I received the glory

It'd stop them noticing you

Ready to give it all up

You said I was on it

Got rid of my pride

Last penny in my wallet

Trusted as responsible

Seen faithful in my duty

From the scale of things

I'm just amazed that you'd have used me

Filthy rags in your sight

But you gave your righteousness

Lived to worship me, but

You came in spite of this

Came to save a sinner

Cos your love I've seen it conquered all

Love so amazing

Has demanded me to worship you

If you see rapping on a stage

Or see walking down the road

This life ain't my own

So I'll be Good & Faithful!

Chorus

Vamp

Servant, servant, Lord I want you to say I was your good and faithful servant x2
