And this for the saints who relate

And you're going through the gates

Cross now but know that the glory awaits

Body old and decayed, stone thrown no lame throw

First is the rain but next is the rainbow

If I say so I do, let the aim grow

We bear abuse for the Truth in our plain clothes

Same old, so the Lord is extolled

Read the Psalter and Psalms, a source to this song like

The pain that we carry in our body is here to serve the Body

His using this jalopy

And so I know that the truth that He has got me

Enter my inside, showing Jesus He is not weak

Na, His my strength when I'm spent

Even if I'm not my spidey senses will sense

The suffering I bear now here's for a purpose

Embodying His purchase

So my suffering's a servant

All I see, is pain mixed up with rain, every day it stays the same but

My praise ain't gonna change in any big way 'cuz

All I need, is Christ my strength and I'm convinced, while suffering now He offers me

A hope in the sense that I'm content, while showing His, All I Need

The pain's bore for a season/onboard is a thought and a feeling

That this pain's a fortunate grieving

So I rely on my Saviour and see Him

I get that from Stephen who saw the Son as they beat him

So in a sense get a sense of that

A shame 'cuz some leaders wanna censor that

You can't censor facts that's required for the game

For the saints who are going through the fire and the flames

It's required for your faith, yeah I've tasted

Death's lessons ain't a blessing for the faithless

His working bad for our good, God's gracious

We turn faces to Him in amazement

There's no evasion, rather embracing

Sufferings a tool God uses to chasten

This for people in the pews and the layman

And so you know what to do, praise Him

I know a couple people who embody this

So it's obvious that suffering ain't all it is

There's more that's what I am calling it

Now this is more than homaging

But challenge and encouragement

When Temi's mum spoke my heart rose in acknowledgment

And I don't front when I say this G

Your strong faith in the Lord show my greatest need

Much more than me know you can play in key

Take that keyboard away and give praise indeed, because

(All I Need) is Christ moving

Eyes off Him and I stay in precise ruin

Cuz when my dad died it was suffering like no other but

I was cross-eyed and surely so was my mother

Or else we would have fell in despair and I mean it

My sisters can testify in agreement (amen)

So despite all the pain I see

I put my hands up and say God's all I need
