Verse 1:

Graduated from MORCASS with a soul stuck up in one class

Good life lessons bewildering, mehn that subject had held me back

During the Eucharistic rites my backside was glued to my seat

By lustful desire and lies, I was breathing in sin

If one treads in darkness, He is bound to go astray

A city with vain worldly pleasures, like sex, money and fame

Which never last forever, like the kingdom of the father

A garden with fruit eternal, Jesus Christ is the way

Temptation is the battalion, I’m still battling with

My soul’s the only target to which their Javelin hit

God blessed me with noble allies, I began travelling with

Old ways we’re cancelling it, we preach, we’re practicing it

The gospel and Christ body became breakfast every morning

My days that seemed the darkest, began to get bright and sunny

When Satan struck his matchete, my shield of faith destroyed it

Is righteousness ever perfect on this long salvation journey?

Chorus:

I can do all things, through Christ who strengthens

I can do all things, through Christ who strengthens me

Verse 2:

Father please help out, thy son is losing faith

It’s been three full moons now, still trying to contemplate

How to address these atheists who don’t believe in grace?

With the best rational point, to them it’s just a common place

For three full moons now, I haven’t been to church

And even if I did, I couldn’t eat of your cup

My brain is so wired to you, you’re the source of my power

I’d stay connected to you, electrocute my devourers

Atheist will argue that we are ruled by science

But in this laws of nature, I only see your presence

And you’ve been in my defense

Both in the past and recent

I can tell it’s not luck, it’s grace, full of Efficiency (Ephesians see)

For the next full moons, let me reflect your glory

Bless me to love you for you, and not for fear and worry

I crave to love so, so I can bless another

Grant me the gift of your spirit, so I can live and conquer

Chorus:

I can do all things, through Christ who strengthens

I can do all things, through Christ who strengthens me

Verse 3:

I can be the greatest rapper that ever lived

Trying to inspire millions of people to live fulfilled

Indulge my passion in the blue blood my biro spills

The inexplicable, I’m capable, Christ strengthens me

I am a branch of the true vine, my berry’s very nutritious

Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, for Christ I will carry that cross

I possess kindness and faithfulness

Possess goodness and gentleness

Possess self-control, firm to the trunk of life

I’m victorious, its glorious

I’ve been redeemed by Christ Jesus

I’m wise, righteous and sanctified

Baptized, forgiven, purified

By his blood

I am a Child of God

Predestined to reap reward

I am free and steady

I am the light of the world

I am unashamed and ready

I am a new creation

More than a conqueror

Mighty in his power

Strong, fearless, secure

Made in the likeness of God
