INTRO Daddy? I want Daddy! V1 / V2 The banks running empty, need to purchase a car My faith’s gone all bumpy and I’m wearing the scars It’s just me on my own, I can’t find any help Cos the worlds stuck in traffic, each man for himself There’s an app on my phone that I’m frantically checking It’ll find me my vehicle at some point, no stressing It’ll come with a bank loan with interest to pay, Yoked to cold corporations, no I don’t wanna play! Hot foot it to church, take my place in the pew Hope the pastor can preach me a road to pursue Ask for prayer at the front while the band plays intense No answers forthcoming, so I’m still in suspense My minds on a roundabout, no exit in sight I’m running on empty, my balance is tight Still a heavenly learner trying to muster some talent Who’s the daddy to lean on? Cos life is a challenge. BR Do I know who to love, who to trust, who’s the daddy? Do I know where to go for a hug, who’s the daddy? Do I know who is wise, never lies, who’s the daddy? When I’m flat under attack who’s gonna cover my back? CH Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? (x4) V3 Those worldly loudspeakers yelling scandal and fear! There’s a big bucks solution, so look over here! It’s gonna look after you, yeah they promise it will, But you’ve all got to hurry, and they’ll send you the bill. Keep your eyes on the screen, cos you can’t be seen idle Can’t have the world’s minds wired up by the Bible You think farther from your Father, leave your God in the dust Who’s the daddy for you? Where’s your ultimate trust? BR Do you know who to love, who to trust, who’s the daddy? Do you know where to go for a hug, who’s the daddy? Do you know who is wise, never lies, who’s the daddy? When you’re flat under attack who’s gonna cover your back? CH Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? (x4) I wonder… Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Somebody tell me! Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? I wanna know! Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Have you figured it out? Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? MIDDLE EIGHT Who’s the daddy for you? Technology? Who’s the daddy for you? Authority? Who’s the daddy for you? That ministry? Who’s the daddy for you? Your community? Who’s the daddy for you? A celebrity? Who’s the daddy for you? A personality? Who’s the daddy for you? A principality? Who’s the daddy for you? Love love love… say! CH Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Who’s the daddy for you? You say, who’s the daddy? Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Who’s the daddy for you? Love, love daddy. Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Everybody wants to be my daddy… Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? … gotta say… Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Somebody tell me, who’s the daddy? Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Would you make up your mind, yo, who’s the daddy?! Who’s the daddy? Who, who’s the daddy? Who’s the daddy?

The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met He leads me into green pastures Where I can lie down and rest Beside the dew drop silence of the bubbling waters I allow my soul to reconnect with life’s vivacious author We take a stroll down the country lanes of wisdom The character cobbled streets of a gold plated kingdom The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met The Lord is my shepherd The Lord is my shepherd The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met When our journey meets friction He never ceases to bless With Lord walking right by my side Where the roads lead through darkness and my fears grow wild Yet the peace in the present comes from Him who is always He instructs the darkness of night and the bright sun in the morning With His rod and His staff a constant reassurance As He prepares a table of sweet sustenance before me While my enemies watch with defeat on their faces Unwilling to compete with the shepherd’s signature graces My head anointed with oil by the King above all The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met The Lord is my shepherd The Lord is my shepherd The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met My cup is overflowing, the chalice is silky wet With the love of the King of Kings, it will never cease Surely His love and goodness will pursue and increase All the days of my life, in the house of the shepherd Where I will dwell today, tomorrow and forever The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met The Lord is my shepherd The Lord is my shepherd The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met The Lord is my shepherd I got all my needs met

V1 / V2 Sitting by the tracks, he’s got something outrageous To say with the spray about the world’s foundations Yeah the passers by frown at what THEY think is messy Cos they cannot comprehend it’s a broken kid’s blessing Hoods on their heads, with their arms outstretched The paint hits the wall, it’s an upper class mess The tag-alongs watch as he spells out his mind But the world doesn’t get it, cos the world’s gone blind His dad glugs beer and his mother smokes dope He’s been kicked out of school, told he hasn’t got hope The system sees trouble, but doesn’t care why, he’s gotta Follow procedures and get back in line But the church down the road sees a man with a soul They flood him with love, not assertive control His heart starts melting, and he smashes the booze Grabs his trusty old spray can to share the good news He’s gonna spray it ’til the whole world knows CH Who’s King, Jesus is King… (x8) V3 She’s lying on the bed, she’s unable to move His words promised love, but his actions abused It’s happened again, and from the tear stained sheets She wonders, why does hell have to happen to me? She’s followed God’s word right down to the letter Her story’s in the Bible, but the church didn’t get her So she suffered on her own while her man stayed silent Her soul is so weak but her King keeps fighting! She’ll pray it til the whole world knows CH Who’s King, Jesus is King… (x8) V4 The Jesus that’s king dwells all over the town He’s the cat in the shadows, he’s the wisest of owls Living loud in the witty, wearing dirt with hurting And the rainbow of souls who figure for certain that Following Jesus is no easy decision, it’s not “Give me that label I’m a new edition!” God’s signature logic will say that you’re free: Now pick up your Cross and come follow me… He’s waiting till the whole world knows…. CH Who’s King, Jesus is King… (x8) CH Who’s King, Jesus is King… (x8) So now you know!

V1 Sitting in the middle of the green, green grass, and there’s a Huddle of friends sharing joy and laughing Not a care in the world, their joy is undisturbed They’re connecting like a hyphen that joins up two words These people they know, life’s better in the village Green leaves, big smiles and everyone’s a winner There’s an open space that everyone can play in This is heaven on earth: Jesus Village Nation TAG x2 Everybody speaks Everybody hears Everybody loves Everybody cheers Everybody grows Everybody’s welcome It’s the village way, Jesus Village nation V2 Run along the beach and feel hot sand in my toes There’s lonely folks sobbing over toils and woes, because Life’s gone and left them in a harsh hot desert Wanna show them how it looks for when life gets better They’re not made to be alone, life’s better in the village Green leaves, big smiles and everyone’s a winner There’s an open space that everyone can play in This is heaven on earth: Jesus Village Nation TAG x2 Everybody speaks Everybody hears Everybody loves Everybody cheers Everybody grows Everybody’s welcome It’s the village way, Jesus Village nation V3 Has the world taken over while you’re selling your soul? Working hard like a hamster all while living alone Is the clock your commander running round at high speed? And there’s never time for picnics on the village green Please never be alone! Life’s better in the village Green leaves, big smiles and everyone’s a winner There’s an open space that everyone can play in This is heaven on earth: Jesus Village Nation TAG (x4) Everybody speaks Everybody hears Everybody loves Everybody cheers Everybody grows Everybody’s welcome It’s the village way, Jesus Village nation CODA Everybody speaks Everybody hears Everybody loves Everybody cheers Everybody grows Everybody’s welcome It’s the village way, Jesus Village nation
