(Oh Lord)
Gimme dat God Almighty,
dat good ol' Gospel
dat ol'school doctrine (oh Lord)

Gimme dat truth for da body
ain't nothin' new about it
but it still want the power (oh Lord)

Church clap let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Church clap let me hear the church clap

Lecrae:
Gimme dat church motha in the church hat, clap,
Yeah, that Shug Avery Color Purple comin back, clap, uhh
When that whole week beat you up and stress ya
But you hear that organ playin it remind ya of ya blessins.
And on anotha note, she just hit anotha note.
Chills down my spine, got me cryin, make me over Lord.
You'ont know about it though, ol'school church hymms
Deacons get to hummin now the drummer finna burstin
(Lordy, lordy, LORD) Can you hear me now
Church clothes sweaty, you'ont care you just get it now
Testify, how we made Matyrs outta these fathers and rose up all of his daughters to glorify Him with honor
Man I swear I saw Miss Jones with her hair did.
Now its flyin everywhere she dont care what her hair did.
She an heir, yea
Caught up in the air, yea
Probably why she clappin like Jesus just hear her prayer, yea

KB:
I wanna be the type of dude to get the Lord on his feet.
I wanna do the type of shows that the Lord wanna see.
And what I mean: If I could make the whole church clap
but aint a clap in the heavens then that clap just a clap, clap,
For the Son glorified, sin mortified
The Holy Spirit's goin', "Word of Truth been watered down."
It sound doctrine, get Spurgeon and call me now.
Nothing wrong with singing loud but that aint where the power's at.
C'mon now church; the church has been clapin at weak sermons,
Leavin the weak hurt; no one's changed by Sunday service.
We need discernment, check what ya be affirmin'
Cause the church can be full of members but empty in conversions.
Preach the gospel, then stand back.
Look to change lives, not for hand claps.
Love people, prayer, Oh they can't stand dat.
The church just a church when the Word's where we stand at.
