Full Transcript
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn for me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls, for my yoke is easy and my burden is light. All things have been committed to me by my Father.
No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son, and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him. And the Lord has delivered me from drugs, gang affiliation, murder, you name it, I've done it, but today I can say I have the victory in Jesus Christ. I'd like to thank the Lord for not having no respect of persons.
I'd like to thank the Lord for digging in the bottom pits of hell and reaching for my soul. Although I'm not worthy, I'd like to thank you, Lord, for putting a song in my heart to give me a purpose, and my purpose is to do God's will, wherever He may lead me, wherever He may send me. I am not ashamed of the gospel, for the Lord was not ashamed of me.
I can go on the rest of my life saying what the Lord has done for me, and if there's anyone that don't know Jesus, and if you want to know if it's just a round of applause, I give myself as a living sacrifice this night. I died of myself tonight and give my life to the Lord. And I just want to say, if you ever never seen a miracle in your life, here go one right here.
