Jesus Children Letra - Robert Glasper Experiment ft. Lalah Hathaway, Malcolm-Jamal Warner

Hello Jesus

Jesus children

Jesus loves you

Jesus children

Hello children

Jesus loves you of America

Are you hearing

What He's saying?

Are you feeling

What you're praying?

Are you hearing, praying, feeling

What you say, inside?

You better tell

Your story fast

And if you lie

It will come to pass

Hey, na na na na na na na na na na

Hello Jesus

Jesus children

Jesus loves you

Jesus children

Hello children

Jesus loves you of America, mmm

Are you hearing

What He's saying?

Are you feeling

What you're praying?

Are you hearing, praying, feeling

What you say inside?

You better tell, yeah

Your story fast

And if you lie, yeah

It will come to pass

Hey, you better tell

Your story fast

And if you lie, yeah

It will come to pass

Hey, yeah

Cries of young lives sing silly songs of laughter in the life after

Hurt, ego, and misguided pride which lead to lies the soul can no longer stand to bear

But I see twenty children standing there beaming bright in angel light as they take flight

Together they smile the type sunlight that makes the devil backtrack into his lair

Yeah, these young souls are soothsayers, spiritual players

Accelerated graduators of this game called life

Spitting sixteens making Biggie breakdance and Frankie seem like Lalah's dad

With ten thousand other souls watching true love withhold nothing

And through dried tears we will spend the next few years silently screaming "why"

Until we realize that their spiritual awakening already understood their undertaking

Of the moment they appeared in the womb playing Romper Room

Creating heated debates that should have been sparked sooner than the dark hell of December 2012

And now, now, now they dance the story of masters much faster than the polygamous pastor can tell a lie

Faster than you can wipe from your eyes the soot of deceit

Oh, these kids dance the story that tells us to delete the feeling of being incomplete from our consciousness

To let these six and seven year olds take a hold of our consciousness

To remind us to laugh, scream, and let our inner child fly

Higher than deferred dreams seldom seen

Through the lens of love and gratitude, let's give our children love and gratitude

Fly high

Shine, and fly high

And fly high
