One Of The Ones Who Did(Album Version)

One of the One\\'s Who Did

Brian McKnight & Kirk Franklin

For every little girl and every little boy

Whose mother and father is across the waters

Fighting the war that they know nothing about

We pray for you tonight, God help us, listen

We\\'re running outta time, can\\'t waste it. (can\\'t waste it)

Have you seen the news today

War is on the uprise, he said it was to be this way

The Lord I know that millions won\\'t make it. (Yes, Lord)

This life\\'s all I have to live and I\\'ll gladly give it

To be one of the one\\'s who did

(Thank You)

Ever since creation, we been counting down the time

From then to now and we will see, nations fighting nations

I hide the word inside my heart

Then I read about, man inventing weapons of mass destruction

To tear us all apart

But like the rising of the sun

We\\'re waiting for you to come and take us away

Those of us who believe in you

Believe me when I say

We\\'re running outta time, can\\'t waste it. (have you seen it)

Have you seen the news today? (yes, lord)

War is on the uprise, he said it was to be this way

The Lord I know that millions won\\'t make it. (but I\\'m so glad, Jesus)

This life\\'s all I have to live and I\\'ll gladly give it

To be one of the one\\'s who did

I\\'m gonna hang on to you Lord

I\\'m gonna stay strong for you Lord, yeah

I\\'m gonna keep holding on, gonna keep holding on

To your unchanging hand, Lord you know the plan

That you have for me, it\\'s not my will

But your way, and I\\'m gonna follow that way, Lord

Oh lord, with a made-up mind, I\\'m willing to go on through

I\\'m not gonna worry about what my friends might say

Or my friends might do, hey

I\\'m gonna follow you Lord, I\\'m gonna follow you Lord

If my daddy don\\'t go, if my momma, if my momma don\\'t go

If my sister don\\'t go, if my brother don\\'t go

I\\'m going, I\\'m going with you, Lord

If my preacher don\\'t go, said I\\'m going

Oh~ Oh Lordy, Oh Lordy, oh, oh, oh...

I surrender all

With a made-up mind, I\\'m going through, Lord~

Care~

So father we pray right now

That you hear our cries

For peace, for restoration

Give us hope right now

Without you we can\\'t make it

We tried and we\\'re sorry

But we look to the hills

From which cometh our help

Cause we know our help comes from you

We gonna hold on, I said we\\'re gonna hold on to you

We\\'re not gonna let go this time father

We\\'re gonna trust and have faith, the size of a mustard seed

Bless your name Father, you\\'re worthy

you\\'re worthy

Thank You
