I was just a little boy Why, my momma said to me Son, you want to grow up strong You gotta know what you believe You're gonna find out one day There's only two ways you can go And when you get down To the end of the line There's somebody you need to know She was telling me all about Jesus And how He died to set me free He arose from the dead For a Memphis boy like me I can feel it From the sole of my feet To the crown of my head I felt it from the day I was born I know my God ain't dead He wakes me up early in the morning And keeps me late at night Choose to run away from the darkness And start to walk in the light He's the Alpha and Omega He's the beginning and the end He's the only one of the people That I can really Really call a friend He's the first and the last Ah you know the Word is true If you want anything from my Lord You know what you've got to do She was telling me all about Jesus And how He died to set me free He arose from the dead For a Memphis boy like me I can feel if from the crown of my head To the sole of my feet How He threw up both of His hands For the people that believe It wasn't done in a corner But high up on a hill You gotta give it all you've got People you know the deal I can feel it from the crown of my head To the sole of my feet I have felt it from the day I was born I know my God ain't dead He wakes me up early in the morning And keeps me late at night
