Sanctuary

Hands, hands, all I see is hands

The saints is in the building, we warned them in advance

And we ain’t going nowhere, we praise him ‘cause it’s necessary

So watch us turn this place into a sanctuary

Hands, hands, hands

Let me see them hands, hands, hands

Let me see them hands, hands, hands,

Let me see them

Hold up

H-h-h-h-h-h-h-hold up

Jesus all on my brain (hold up), Jesus all on my brain (hold up)

Christ is the big picture so it’s Jesus all in my frame (hold up)

Don’t you see that we ‘bout it, living for Christ and we shout it?

Who are y’all clowning? God is astounding, but they can’t see it, they vision is cloudy

So uh, what we gon’ do ‘bout that? What we gon’ do ‘bout that? Huh?

Look, we gon’ put his love on display, bang it in our weight in rap

Hold up, we gon’ show ‘em the way, serving the Lord and you know we obey

We take over buildings, look at his children, swinging from ceilings, circus olay

Hold up, hold up, you mean to tell me you showed up

Just to tell us you ballin’, plus you got the game sewn up?

So what, man we serve a God who is legendary

So watch us turn this place into a sanctuary

Hands, hands, all I see is hands

The saints is in the building, we warned them in advance

And we ain’t going nowhere, we praise him ‘cause it’s necessary

So watch us turn this place into a sanctuary

Hands, hands, hands

Let me see them hands, hands, hands

Let me see them hands, hands, hands,

Let me see them …

So watch us turn this place into a sanctuary

Look me in my face, I ain’t got no worries

‘Bout to turn this place into a sanctuary

But I need to see those hands up if you want what we on

Said I need to see those hands up if you in my zone

How we chillin’ when it’s hot in the building? I got that it’s God and his children

If we outside, then we go in; if we inside, then we go in

Hold up, ‘cause we are the saints, and everything we are got the Lord to thank

And everything we ain’t, we’re being sanctified, he fightin’ on our side like an army tank

Need I say that we are the church, but in Spanish iglesia

In the hood they say “church people”, but in the Greek it says “ecclesia”

And where we are, the Spirit is, holy one’s household of faith

We bear the marks of the card, intellect by the Good Shepherd, that’s a heavy weight

But as it relates to life and godliness, boy, we got the royal flush

Wasn’t offered like often Anne, he upped the auntie and adopted us

I’m ‘bout to work myself into a frenzy, God is in me contending, I’m about to bust

Turn a prison cell to a sanctuary – Paul, Silas, lock us up

Hands, hands, all I see is hands

The saints is in the building, we warned them in advance

And we ain’t going nowhere, we praise him ‘cause it’s necessary

So watch us turn this place into a sanctuary

Hands, hands, hands

Let me see them hands, hands, hands

Let me see them hands, hands, hands,

Let me see them

So watch us turn this place into a sanctuary

So what we gon’ do right now? What we gon’ do right now? Huh?

What we gon’ do right now? What we ‘bout to do right now? Whoo!!

So what we gon’ do right now? What we gon’ do right now?

So watch us turn this place into a sanctuary

Hands, hands, all I see is hands

The saints is in the building, we warned them in advance

And we ain’t going nowhere, we praise him ‘cause it’s necessary

So watch us turn this place into a sanctuary

Hands, hands, hands

Let me see them hands, hands, hands

Let me see them hands, hands, hands,

Let me see them

So watch us turn this place into a sanctuary
