An Anointing So Strong
Do you want to break yokes and curses,
And battle demons and disease?
You can have an anointing so strong,
That people fall to their knees.
Wherever you go - I'll go.
I'll be there to talk to you too;
You can have an anointing so strong,
That I'm felt by those near you.
Just as they anointed the dead long ago,
So I anoint death of flesh today;
You can have an anointing so strong,
But that is the price to pay.
Everything you hold on to...
Every desire and want must die;
You can have an anointing so strong,
If it's not you who lives, but I.
You must eliminate yourself.
No flesh can exist at My throne;
You can have an anointing so strong,
That souls are saved by prayer alone.
It takes time to learn My voice,
And to love Me more than before;
You can have an anointing so strong,
That you won't want Me less, but more.
If you stay in fellowship with Me,
And listen when I speak to you;
You will have an anointing so strong,
That great boldness will come over you.
I'll ask you to do something you'll refuse.
I'll stretch your faith as far as it'll go;
You will have an anointing so strong
If you obey, and don't say no.
You won't receive a higher anointing
If you hear Me, and disobey;
You will have an anointing so strong
If obedience is learned by what I say.
Be faithful with My power.
You're trusted if you pass My tests;
You will have an anointing so strong
If you try hard, and do your best.
I'll tell you to lay hands on someone.
Act - don't think about it or wait;
You will have an anointing so strong
To heal, and I won't arrive late.
I'll tell you to speak a Word to someone.
Say it - don't try to understand;
You will have an anointing so strong
To prophesy when I command.
I've been fighting to win people back,
And deliver them for thousands of years;
I need you to be My anointed hands
To help people, and wipe My tears.
