Jimmy Sol - Speak Thru Me Lyrics

Jimmy
Sol
The Bible says be quick to listen
Slow to speak and slow to become angry
Quick to listen
Slow to speak
Slow to get angry
I need to that verse to sink in
Need it tattoo'd on my heart
Cause I've been quick to speak
And I've been slow to listen
Getting angry too fast
Destroys relationships
It's the tongue that cause crashes
It's the tongue that sink the ship
I need help from the helper
God gives me clear direction
Whenever I need course correction
The word is my compass
Quick to listen
Slow to speak
I need to be slow to become angry
Lord help me be quick to listen
Slow to speak
Lord help me be slow to become angry
Must slow down fore I take offense
Can't react like I am offended
Before I give you my response
Im gon calmly repeat the sentence
Am I hearing you correctly
Is that even what you meant u say
If not you can clear it up
If you meant it in another way
If it is what you mean to say
I'll try my best to understand
What I did for you to feel that way
And I apologize if I can't
I know I'm not perfect
And I know I make mistakes
And if I'm not im the wrong
I'm still gon give you grace
Quick to listen
Slow to speak
I need to be slow to become angry
Lord help me be quick to listen
Slow to speak
Lord help me be slow to become angry
I need to speak right words
At the right time
With the right tone
To the right person
I need You to speak thru me
Lord help me speak right words
At the right time
With the right tone
To the right person
Please Jesus speak thru me
I need to be quick to listen
Slow to speak
I need to be slow to become angry
No human being can tame the tongue in his own strength
But If we're willing to lean on the power of Holy Spirit
He'll help us do it.
