[Chorus] Be Him Take up your cross so that they can see Him No matter the cost in an out of season Be Him Be Him Take up your cross so that they can see Him No matter the cost in an out of season Be Him [Verse 1] It doesn’t take much effort in writing letters to Lecrae But where is the effort in writing letters to Jay & Ye We got it backwards, why do we sit and pray For God to expose others, we should be praying for grace, and Can I see your face outside the four walls? The hood is still the hood, but Bible study’s going on The hood is still the hood, but youth service’s going on And we’re singing these same old songs We got it wrong Yelling, send me i’ll go off the mountain top After driving through the hood, in route to the mountains top We see the struggle, or does apathy have our vision blocked In mission trips in foreign countries, but not in city blocks And I’m not saying don’t bring the gospel to all nations Because I know they need it, they want, and some are patently waiting I’m just saying, we all are God’s hands and feet We need Him in our backyards just as the need Him overseas [Chorus] Be Him Take up your cross so that they can see Him No matter the cost in an out of season Be Him Be Him Take up your cross so that they can see Him No matter the cost in an out of season Be Him [Verse 2] And yet it feels like I'm speaking empty words to a few Handfuls of those who don’t just speak it but do Put there hands to the plow Like they truly really believe Everything that's in that book And who we're called to be This is a call to each and every member of the body Who all function different Who all got different callings Different gifts, passions And areas of influence I can open up the Bible and show you what you should be doing We're the hands and feet Eyes, and ears, mouth piece Salt of the world A city on the hill I know The words I'm saying resonates with your heart But since I have your attention, let me tell you where to start It's not enough just to pray about it When we can be about it Are your eyes closed Well open them up and you gone see the problems To much fighting amongst the body Don't you know the streets are watching To put our hands to the plow We gotta take them out our pockets [Chorus] Be Him Take up your cross so that they can see Him No matter the cost in an out of season Be Him Be Him Take up your cross so that they can see Him No matter the cost in an out of season Be Him [Verse 3] See I want to be him And be like Him And, following the steps He laid Following His ways Until all my time decays A hundred 80 ($180) for some J's If I had it I would pay To stay relevant to the lives that I encounter everyday But Nikes work too so fit in Encounter culture blend in Become all men just to reach them without sinning Talk the talk and dress appropriately But ties don't work Let's drop the dress codes and let them wear their snapbacks in church We're stuck in grandmas generation With standards of salvation We say we want to reach the world But won't even speak to our neighbors And can't reach our own nation cause of legalism And pastor passed the bucket three times already in one sitting It's kind of sickening The fact is we're missing The reason we're living in Him Is for fishing We've all been commissioned Excuses need to go out the door Faith without works is dead So put your feet to the floor and be Jesus! [Chorus] Be Him Take up your cross so that they can see Him No matter the cost in an out of season Be Him Be Him Take up your cross so that they can see Him No matter the cost in an out of season Be Him
