Story Behind The Song

Inspired in General

Song Description

A song about Faith. A song that features a Believer who is at the end of his rope, with his back against the wall, painfully aware of his own weakness. Ultimately the Believer remembers that divine intervention and the power of the Lord is available always to him if only he holds on to his faith, which always got him through tough time in the past.

Lyrics

Put The Lord On It


Let Me Put The Lord On It,
And I'll Get Back To You,

We'll See What Happens
When He Comes Through.

Verse 1:

Mr. Telephone Man
I Know My Bill Is Due,

I'm Over-Extended
To Tell You The Truth

You're Not The Only One
Calling My Phone,

But I Just Remembered
That I'm Not Alone.

Chorus:

Let Me Put The Lord On It,
And I'll Get Back To You,

We'll See What Happens
When He Comes Through.

Let Me Put The Lord On It,
And I'll Get Back To You,

We'll See What Happens
When He Comes Through.

Verse 2:

I've Just Been Accused
Of Things I Didn't Do,

I Feel I Must Defend Myself
And Prove It Isn't True,

When I'm Asleep
My Enemies Lie Awake

Planning My Demise
But For Goodness Sake,


Chorus:

Let Me Put The Lord On It,
And I'll Get Back To You,

We'll See What Happens
When He Comes Through.

Let Me Put The Lord On It,
And I'll Get Back To You,

We'll See What Happens
When He Comes Through.

Bridge:

Leaning Not To My Own Understanding,
Sometimes Life Gets So Hard,

But I Believe And I Have So Much Faith,
That's What Gotten Me This Far.

Chorus:

Let Me Put The Lord On It,
And I'll Get Back To You,

We'll See What Happens
When He Comes Through.

Let Me Put The Lord On It,
And I'll Get Back To You,

We'll See What Happens
When He My Comes Through.
