congregation

Lord please lift his soul, and heal this hurt."

Then the congregation all stood up and sang

The saddest song that she ever heard

The way you look should be a sin, you my sensation

I know I'm preaching to the congregation

We love Jesus but you done learned a lot from Satan, ha-ha

♪

Ignorant siblings in the congregation

Gather around spewing sympathy

The congregation sang

We knelt and prayed

Take a boat from the river

Men go crazy in congregations

They only get better one by one

So now they trying separation

And sending black folks in white coats to infiltrate our congregation

Tapping into our conversation

Now my world is in your hands

Send in the congregation

Open your eyes, step in the light

The conductor is beckoning

Come congregation, let's sing it like you mean it, no

Don't you get it, don't you get it?

The mass of the few in this torn nation?

The priest, the book, or the congregation?

The politricks who rob and hold down your zone?

Bow down to my ill nation runnin from drug cases

Lookin at my congregation so full of thug faces

Momma gave a nigga breath, a life of stress

You shoulda seen the way they tossed and turned, goddamn

The way she made the congregation squirm, yeah

Girl's got a worldly view

You heal the sick, you raise the dead

You blind the congregation with the things you say

Religious blackmail, a deceit of trust

It's almost cruel, the blue in your eyes

The kind of blasphemy that makes a congregation cry

When I'm with you, it's like nothing else

All our politics are too late

Oh my, the congregation in my mind

Is this assembly singing of gratitude

It's Lil Wayne, the reverend call it Sunday

The congregation know I come with nothing

But leave with everything, I ain't come for nothing

Nigga dropped a 9, still brought back 11

Gotta feed my congregation, yeah you fuckin' with the reverend

Wear them chains every day like they part of my religion

All aboard, take it to the stratosphere

The congregation is alive

All I'm asking is for you to break the seal

He's calling out a line

Responds to congregation

Just a little ways behind

They sent to kill

The congregation never broke my will

No-stra-da-mus x2

The church door's thrown open, I can hear the organ's song

But the congregation's gone

My city of ruins

And the crowd was standing near

The congregation sang in a tune

In the hall, it was loud and clear

♪

A pastor stands before his congregation

Once a mighty army for the Lord

And called it the tabernacle

Of the congregation (mm-mm-mm-mm)

And it came to pass

He couldn't take no more abuse

So he shot down the congregation

You can't talk to a man

If they ever learned the truth

And the congregation weeps

I stay woke

Congregation nod they head

And say amen

They're all in the station praying for trains

Congregation's late again

It's getting darker all the time, these flagpole days

Kinda conversation I'ma bomb ya nation

With my congregation of non-sedation

The Don's awakened achin' the spawn of Satan

Plain ignorant and don't understand

A congregation at weekends will change their behaviour

So many people are weak and then have to

But I never knew her name

Oh, the congregation gathered

But in darkness I remained

I know

Come on wake up the congregation

we will see the light tonight

'Cause You really started something

And then the bride, the groom, the congregation and the priest

All got onto the train when we were three stations east, yeah

Now everybody stands up

The congregation sings

It's a song of sweet forgiveness

Quibble grew to spat, to wrangle, then to brawl

The frenzied congregation struggled desperately to fetch

The pretty puppet snugly nestled deep in Esther's leather sack

You gotta give me more and more

Play some soul for the congregation

Rock 'n' roll for the kids next door

The basket of America, the weevils and the wheat.

The milk and honeyed congregation, scrubbed and apple-cheeked

Salute Apollo 13 from the rattle jewelry seats.

And you know what you've done right

Before the congregation

Her husband and her kids

The preacher took his bible and laid it on the stool

He said, "With the congregation running

Why should I play the fool?"

A minister, a white dress

And of course a congregation

And flowers and music

Though we opened up the windows and the doors

The congregation's out and then from the Bibles in their hands

Out and to the night the words of God would choir

When you want to lose your blues

(Go tell the congregation)

When there's nothing left that you can do

All the flights of the starlings that appear in the evening

In the din of congregation I'll take more than I'm leaving

But not the bitter or broken, not the scars or the shame

That could make this world a better nation

Just like the preachers congregation

They're all in to his conversation

A new home with a place to breathe

Bring your congregation someday

And you will never...

Were for baby Jimmy Brown

Then the little congregation

Prayed for guidance from above

And guns everyone one down

What did that congregation do?

They forgave that boy somehow, oh yeah

Came the day when we were married

All our folks in the congregation

Emily Jane was like an angel

I create aggravation

Led by a congregation

But don't burn baby, burn

See them flinging out the banner

While the congregation says, "Amen"

No more war

Amongst the Black congregation

No more war

It's a tax-free situation

It looks like half the congregation's gone

I'm afraid that I've gone with them, Father John

(Ah-ah-ah-ah) on the river hymn

The whole congregation was standing on the banks of the river

We are gathered here to give a little thanks, thanks

♪

The holy roller preacher told the eager congregation

That the devil had passed right through their nest

The preacher shouts out the answer

The congregation looks for the problem

Every man born has got 'em

I'm proud to say you finally entertained yourself to death

Welcome to the congregation

I hope we meet your expectation

It was a stylish congregation, you could see they'd been around

And they had the biggest pipe organ of any church in town

There were tears in the crowded congregation

There were hearts that have loved but all in vain
