Intro: Spoken Word
Song Meaning
A call to action opens this short spoken-word intro: "Brothers, sisters, let's go and change the world, let's go and make it a better place." Kierra Sheard follows with the line that gives it a Christian center, "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done," from the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6:10.
The prayer part asks for focus: "won't you touch our minds, keep us focused, oh God, we want to do what You called us to do, we want to win the souls and the hearts of the lost, we want to make You smile." Winning souls is the idea of Proverbs 11:30, and a request to "put it in our hearts to not judge but love each other" fits Matthew 7:1.
The close is a pledge. "More innovative ideas to take over the world," she says, and then, "if nobody else goes, I'll go, because I trust You, God. I surrender to You, You know what's best, give us words to say, and have Your way." The 'I'll go' response matches Isaiah 6:8. The track is short, at about 663 characters, and works as an introduction to what follows.
Brothers sisters, lets go and change the world
Lets go and make it a better place, yeah
Lets go and change the world
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done
Won't you touch our minds, keep us focused oh God
We want to do what you called us to do
We want to win the souls and the hearts of the lost
We want to make you smile
Are you ready
And willing
To do whatever (Free our minds for us)
To do the right thing
God's work through us
Put it in our hearts to not judge but love each other
More innovative ideas to take over the world
If nobody else goes, I'll go
Because I trust you God
I surrender, to you
You know whats best
Give us words to say
And have your way
