Lyrics God’s Work - Willie Will

As we bless God for a fresh heart
Let's start speaking on what I think is one of the best parts
Of this great situation
Where God takes sinners and saves them
Bringing them to sanctification
See, in justification He saved us from the fire
But in Sanctification God changes our desires
But some people think as soon as you're born again
You win, never again committing any form of sin
But nah, that isn't even how it works, kid
You don't receive Christ and think life's gonna be perfect
It's only the beginning, you have now embarked on a journey
And you will now see how the God of mercy
Desired not only to save you dude, but change you too
He promised to make you new
True: His passion wasn't only to blast sin of our past pen
Leave it to bad men to act in
Total obedience to God's law
That could never happen
Cause' our hard hearts are full of mad sin
Though we've been saved from it's penalty
We're being saved from it's power and the gospel is the remedy
We've been made perfect positionally,
But conditionally we need to be changed significantly
Into the image of He who went to the tree
Giving us freedom definitively; He did it for me

God's work for me guarantees God's work in me,
Then it hit me: put simply He will cleanse me and
Definitely conform me, to the image of Christ
To Him be the Glory.

When you realize the truth about our condition
You will understand why we still sin after we become Christian
It looks grim on the onset, but God is faithfully patiently
Working on His people like a project
Sanctification is the process where the Godless are being conformed
To the Godly by God's hand
And progress only happens in God's time
Cause' all of it is God's work of heartbeat
Word, so Let me break it down again
Justification is when God takes His people outta sin
Then begins the process that extends through the rest of ya life
Christ begins to cleanse the sin within and
Friend, peep the promise that God gives in Philippians 1:6,
Son it's like a baby in a mud pit
Drowning; can't save himself
So in this life(?), God is running out to snatch Him out of the mud
Now the baby has been saved from the pit because of His mercy
Even though he's muddy and dirty, first he had to be saved
Then the process of being made clean
We're blazing through the same things
Saved from sin, but sin is still in us
God is faithful and He will cleanse us
He is the great Messiah
If He saved us from the lake of fire
Then You can definitely bet He will sanctify us

God's work for me guarantees God's work in me,
Then it hit me: put simply He will cleanse me and
Definitely conform me, to the image of Christ
To Him be the Glory.

Peep how God is serving sinners
Philippians 2 verse 13 is saying how God is working in us
To will and to work for His good pleasure
We should get up and start giving thanks like some turkey dinners
I'm hyping, yes I attest to the sanctifying breath of the Spirit
That might address your life with a question
Having begun by the Spirit are you now being perfected by the flesh?
I confess that's the type of mess leading people to
A life of death, type of stress
Abraham believed God; it was counted as righteousness
If you beginning living as a Christian by the Spirit of God
Well then you only finished by the Holy Spirit
But in one sense we've already been sanctified
Peep these truths in Hebrews, the 10th chapter
S ten, fourteen, and twenty-nine
Then we shine a light on John seventeen
Where we find Christ praying to God that we would be sanctified
By His word observe
This is something that has already been done, son
For one, and it is something that God is currently doing,
And it is something that His people are surely pursuing
And when I see Him face to face, I'll be perfectly human
I'm Certainly moving by grace, and His grace is amazing
I hope you see the love of God in sanctification

God's work for me guarantees God's work in me
Then it hit me: put simply He will cleanse me and
Definitely conform me, to the image of Christ
To Him be the Glory
