Chorus You running hard for the King? I know that's right! Is Jesus your everything? I know that's right! Did He really make all things new? No doubt! By His grace, whatcha gonna do? Work it out!
Verse 1
She's not your typical girl Sixteen years old and she's dead to the world Faith by her lifestyle demonstrated because the gospel penetrated and now she's regenerated Her Master is greater than fashions and flavors She patterns her behavior after the Savior Back in the days you would have seen her standing in the mirror Yeah, her skin was clear, but her vanity was clearer Now she's in the Scriptures and wants to be like Hannah and Sarah rather than Christina Aguilera Wordly girls imitate Missy Elliot But she wants to be like Elisabeth Eliot Not flexing her body, see she dresses with modesty She's not perfect- she confesses sin honestly Christ crucified! That's her permanent shout And by the grace of the Lord, she's working it out

Verse 2
She's not your normal wife She's twenty-four and Christ is the Lord of her life Her walk is evidence that she trusts in God And it feels so good to be justified And no, she doesn't have a Master's in Divinity But what she does have is a passion for the Trinity When she recalls her previous prodigal seasons And how at times she could be the loudest of heathens She praises God for making this former feminist submit to her husband for theological reasons Worldly wives watch Oprah to learn to be a lady But she's reading the writings of Carolyn Mahaney And she would never disrespect her husband in public And if she does it, she repents- I love it! Christ crucified! That's her permanent shout And by the grace of the Lord, she's working it out

Verse 3
She's not your usual mother {ahem} years old and she's true to the lover of her soul, she beholds the cross where He copped it Once was agnostic, now she's adopted Her passion grows greater as she beholds him Job title: homemaker/ theologian Early in her walk, she would fight against His will then The Lord used her marriage and the Bible to reveal sin Now she fights to kill sin and her greatest joy is serving her husband as she's discipling her children While worldly mothers stress shopping for the new style She's pouring into younger women Titus 2 style Teaching others how to rightly see brothers and be mothers And most of all better Jesus lovers Christ crucified! That's her permanent shout And by the grace of the Lord, she's working it out
