Read em and weep
He set us up to weep
There ain't no habit we can't shake
No addiction we can't kick
No personality trait
That can keep us in them chains
Boy, I'm breaking out of mine
Sayonara to the world
Gotta leave it all behind.
We really dead to the flesh,
When it's knockin' at the door,
We ain't gotta say yes,
We got the power to say no.
So we do not lose heart
Though our bodies waste away
Our inner man is bearing new
Day by day
Read em and weep, boy
Show me everything
See that Ace up on my King
Nothing higher than my Jesus.
Read em and weep,
'Cause He's giving me the best hand
Giving us the best, and,
There's nothing that can beat us.
He set us up to weep.
He set us up to weep.
aka the means of grace
Lord's supper
Bible great
Fast faith
Ain't no sickness in the body
No disease will prevail
Tell me death, where's your sting?
Ain't no demon down in hell.
Tell me, who can throw this game?
Can't nobody throw Him off
Where His enemies at?
Man, they [?]
Glad He put me on the team
And He did not pass me up
He's the dealer, dealing hands
And gave the saints the Royal Flush
He started from the bottom
But He was at the top too
So winning ain't a problem
I lay my cards out on the table
He gave me everything I need
That's how He set it up to be
When He took the place for me, ayy
So watch me brag about my King
And enjoy this winning streak
As I tell you, read em
Read em and weep, boy
Show me everything
See that Ace up on my King
Nothing higher than my Jesus.
Read em and weep,
'Cause He's giving me the best hand
Giving us the best, and,
There's nothing that can beat us.
He set us up to weep.
See, He set us up to weep.
Gave us heaven as our hope,
No more sin, suffering.
Put me in, let me go.
Pure perfection in that place,
No temptation in that place,
No mistakes are in that place,
Singing "Holy, Holy, Holy".
See, we're casting down our crowns,
All the credit goes to Him,
He's the hero, He's the star
We played our part,
But in the end,
All my righteousness is His,
My obedience is His,
All the good I've ever done,
All the glory goes to Him.
Read em and weep, boy
Show me everything
See that Ace up on my King
Nothing higher than my Jesus.
Read em and weep,
'Cause He's giving me the best hand
Giving us the best, and,
There's nothing that can beat us.
