To Be Redeemed

You've got a hunger in your heart

You've got a thirst within your soul

I'm gonna say

"Don't wait for another day, get to be redeemed"

If your days are dark and your night times are worse

You better read the good book and memorize you a verse

Some seeds need a-weedin', some falls on stone

But the seed that falls on good ground the Lord will call His own

You've got a hunger in your heart

You've got a thirst within your soul

I'm gonna say

"Don't wait for another day, get to be redeemed"

Old Noah built an ark and they laughed down the line

But when the flood come, well, old Noah was fine

If it was to flood now and Gabriel blow'd his horn

Where'd you hide your guilty hands with all your pockets gone?

You've got a hunger in your heart

You've got a thirst within your soul

I'm gonna say

"Don't wait for another day, get to be redeemed"

It's confusion here and the wicked seem to win

But the Lord's keepin' tally on the wages of sin

Whereabouts is your profit? What good is your goal

If you win the whole wide world and lose your everlasting soul?

Hey

You've got a hunger in your heart

You've got a thirst within your soul

I'm gonna say

"Don't wait for another day, get to be redeemed"
