It Takes Faith

from On A Roll by MARK209

lyrics

Oooo, it takes faith …. Oooo it takes faith

(vrs 1)
God made a promise long ago, to a man named Abraham.
He said, pack up and get ready to go, I’m given you the Promised Land.
So at seventy-five, more dead than alive, he said goodbye to Ur
He didn’t wait, no his faith was great, He trusted the voice he heard


(chorus 1)
Cause it takes both, a little hard work and a lot of faith
You gotta have both, a little of what cha do mixed together with what cha say
It’s not just believin’ and receivin’ everything from the Father’s hand,
It’s … gettin’ up and goin’ to the Promised Land.


(vrs 2)
Jesus was teachin’ at a home in Capernaum, a crowd had gathered ‘round … when
Four friends of a crippled man dug a hole and lowered him down … well
His need was great and he wouldn’t wait, but the man wasn’t in it alone.
When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Take up your bed and go home”. Take it up ‘n go home


(chorus 2)
Cause it takes both, a little hard work and a lot of faith
You gotta have both, a little of what cha do mixed together with what cha say
It’s not just believin’ and receivin’ everything from the Master’s hand,
It’s … gettin’ up and goin’ at His command.

(bridge)
Without faith it is impossible (parts) to please the Lord (uni)
And those who earnestly seek Him (parts), He will reward (uni)
Oh, but faith all by itself never did get nothing done
We’re justified by faith its true, but faith never works alone … no … No

(chorus 1)
Cause it takes both, a little hard work and a lot of faith
You gotta have both, a little of what cha do mixed together with what cha say
It’s not just believin’ and receivin’ everything from the Father’s hand,
It’s … gettin’ up and goin’ to the Promised Land.

(chorus 2)
... A little hard work and a lot of faith
You gotta have both, a little of what cha do mixed together with what cha say
It’s not just believin’ and receivin’ everything from the Master’s hand,
It’s …

gettin’ up and goin’ at His command.

Gettin' up and goin' to the Promised Land

Gettin’ up and goin’ at His command.
