Story behind the song

I spoke at an FCA camp this past summer and did a freestyle while ministering to the young people.  That freestyle is now the song you hear.

Lyrics

Intro: In all the things I desire to do for Christ, my example speaks louder than anything my mouth could ever say.

God the Father, Jesus & the Holy Spirit/About to shake up the planet, listen so you can hear it/
The faith we display is built on nothing less/
Than knowing we are the Lord’s Righteousness/(here we go y’all!)
F... C... A... Fellowship of athletes
that are Christian / Still got one mission/
Telling a dying a world “Put Christ in the Mix!”/
Going strong, 50 years with John 14:6

Hook: Get it, Got it, Give it!!
But Rule #1 is “I’m gonna live it” (x3)

I’m a Christian Competitor, created in the/Likeness of the one and only Almighty/I’m a member of the Team where God is the Boss/
And our team colors (are the colors of the cross)/My only source of strength is the Power of God/That’s why those that don’t know might consider me odd/But my attitude is always above reproach/Respect God, my parents, my foes, my coach/A disciple of determination, man look in my eyes/You can see where my confidence lies/Confident beyond reason, still (nah) I won’t boast/That brings shame to the Lord of Hosts/So my teammates and I play with oneness
Not afraid to give my all, God’s already done this/I am the Lord’s Warrior, that’s my story/
When the game is over, guess who gets the glory!  

Hook

My sweat is an offering, my soreness, a sacrifice/But I don’t mind the pain because Jesus came back to life/Not only that, He paid the price, you’re guaranteed a win/So tell me what you’re waiting on . . .  . .hit ‘em once again! (with the)/
F... C... A... Fellowship of athletes
that are Christian / Still got one mission
Telling a dying world “There’s 1 Way to Play”/When we “Open it Up!”, this is what we say 

Hook

Ending: F – Faith in the one true and living God, Jesus Christ/C – Commitment to stay not only stay drug and alcohol free, but a commitment to stay free from sexual activity of any kind until you are under the covenant of marriage/A – Accountability to one another.  Not a afraid to answer those tough questions
