Story behind the song
I was working on a sermon called "Do you hear Voices?"
Lyrics
One Million By Joseph Johnson 10-7-06
One Million Two Million Three Million Four
Not talking bout dollars, but souls for the Lord
Yo I’m on the street corner, trying to get my hustle on
I ask’em what you need as the people steady passin on.
Sometimes they stop, and I try my best to hook em up
Some times they leave laughing, some times shook up
Ever now and then a few will stop and listen, not a lotta’em
But when they fall to their knees that’s when I know I we got ‘em
One Million Two Million Three Million Four
Not talking bout dollars, but souls for the Lord
I’m trying to win souls for Christ
Not for my Glory, but because He changed mine, and I believe he can change your life
To speak to you and through you, if you only let him use you
And lift him up to the world is all that you do
He’ll do the drawing when we lift him like a fountain
God will bring in the people, and we’ll do the counting
One Million Two Million Three Million Four
Not talking bout dollars, but souls for the Lord
It aint impossible cuz it starts with one.
Not one million, but one just like you son.
See you hear the word of God, and his countless love
And you pass it on to one and it grows to a hundred before it is done
Now multiply that hundred a few thousand time
And you see the potential we have to touch peoples lives
One Million Two Million Three Million Four
Not talking bout dollars, but souls for the Lord
It’s like 6 degrees of separation, where all related
And reaching out with God’s love to the people in your circle is what it takes and
This thing didn’t just get started its been done before
Jesus sent out 12 and they touched the whole world
And now what started back 2 thousands of years in Galillee
Has reached forward in history and is now counting on you and me.
One Million two Million three Million Four
Not talking bout dollars, but souls for the Lord
Not that I can save anybody, I’m just a small time preacher
But I’m also a link on the chain of Christ that just might reach you
In this great harvest I might plant the seed
Others may water it, but God gives the increase
That’s my whole purpose what I’m writing this song for
So that the number of Souls for Christ might grow by one more
One Million two Million three Million Four
Not talking bout dollars, but souls for the Lord
One Million two Million Three Million Four
Five Million six million seven million more
eight million nine million ten million eleven
We'll never know how many lives we touched
until we all get to heave
