Norman Sanchez - Psalm 40 Lyrics

I waited patiently for the LORD
And he turned to me and heard my cry for help
He brought me up from a desolate pit
Out of the muddy clay
And set my feet on a rock making my steps secure
He put a new song in my mouth
A hymn of praise to our God
Many will see in fear
And they will trust in the LORD

How happy is anyone
Who has put his trust in the LORD
And is not turn to the proud
Or to those who run after lies

Daily walking closer crossing Jordan
Really want to go but can't afford it
Normal, Norman, no you're not important
That's a sin, and no you can't ignore it
He was dreaming bout' driving horses
Buying Lamborghinis, Maserati, Porsche
In the office straight dialing sources
He was trying to get his pockets more endomorph
Hoping he can be the next Pac propositioned Houston rapper
Cut the chase and quit the acting
Yea that's what we tried to tell him
But he refused; anti acquiescent
Now he stressing, I really hope he learned his lesson
But God forgives, that's a blessing
Life is sad and refreshing, that's depressing
Was he truly saved
I don't know, that's a good question
That I really can't answer
I lost my cousin to a cancer
But then I saw my cousin in a dream
And I wasn't too pleased by his candor
And he wasn't too with my lifestyle
He was talkin' bout' the things I'd abandoned
He was sayin' how my soul looked famished
I remember waking up in a panic
We on the move right now
Let me take em' back to school right now
I was actin' like a fool back then, still actin' like a fool right now.
Man why you placing bets on life, dawg we ain't playing pool right now
You don't even know your life ain't yours
We ain't even got a clue right now
And don't you let em' fill ya head up with lies
Saying human beings just appeared over time
They giving too much credit to the flesh dawg
They putting false hope in ya mind
And I don't care if you do not agree with me
Christ said the church gone leave with me
And I just wanna be apart of that team
Cause that's the only guarantee for me, hey
I just wish my friends wouldn't be so MIA
I know they be thinking bout the things that I say
Jude 1:3 say contend for the faith
I know it don't depend on ya age or ya race
Eric let Ken be a 'hen' in the way
And Ken letting him stop Ken being saved
Momma still stressed, but there will come a day
And this is real talk not just wordplay

Sing to the LORD new songs like hey
Sing to the LORD all earth like aye
All things work for the good like hey
All things work for the good always
Sing to the LORD new songs like hey
Sing to the LORD all earth like aye
All things work for the good like hey
All things work for the good always

I am oppressed and needy
May the LORD think of me
You are my helper and my deliverer
My God, do not delay
