[ti:Somethin' Takes Over] [ar:First Call] [al:The Early Years] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Somethin' Takes Over - First Call [00:08.61]There's joy in the Lord [00:10.37]That every sinner can afford [00:11.38]Unless you're livin' as a Christian [00:13.18]You don't know the joy you're missing [00:14.50]And you'll wonder [00:15.00]How you could ever be bored [00:16.43]It's true as can be [00:17.68]Because it's happenin' to me [00:19.36]I'm gonna tell my story to you [00:20.73]'Cause I know that when I'm through [00:21.98]You're surely bound to see it [00:23.23]The way that I see [00:24.54]'Cause sometimes when I kneel to pray [00:26.10]And let the spirit have his way [00:30.41]Somethin' takes over [00:32.28]Somethin' takes over my soul [00:34.09]And soon I get to reelin' [00:35.34]'Cause of all the joy I'm feelin' [00:36.59]Till I'm very nearly out of control [00:37.77]Just like the rollin' [00:39.08]Of the waters of the mighty sea [00:41.21]When I'm connected to the spirit [00:42.58]Heavenly Father's sure to hear it [00:43.76]'Cause somethin' takes over me [00:45.64] [00:47.70]It's hard to contain [00:49.38]A joy that words just can't explain [00:51.13]Unless they know the reason for it [00:52.49]All your friends will just ignore it [00:53.75]For it seems you're going a little insane [00:55.25]But don't you forget [00:56.43]He isn't finished with you yet [00:58.31]We have His spirit now to teach us [00:59.93]For He said He'd always keep us all [01:01.42]And that's a promise on which you can bet [01:03.04]For He's renewing your mind [01:03.92] [01:05.81]And when you praise Him you will find [01:09.43]Somethin' takes over [01:11.30]Somethin' takes over my soul [01:13.36]And soon you get to reelin' [01:14.86]'Cause of all the joy your feelin' [01:16.11]Till you're very nearly out of control [01:17.17]Just like the rollin' [01:18.60]Of the waters of the mightly sea [01:20.47]When you're connected to the spirit [01:21.79]Heavenly father's sure to hear it [01:22.92]'Cause somethin' takes over me [01:23.85]I get to dancin' [01:25.97]When the spirit starts movin' my feet [01:27.59]I can't help singin' when we're swingin' [01:29.02]With the angels to a heavenly beat [01:31.02](Well well) [01:31.52]And then the neighbors [01:32.58]Pull theirs shutters down [01:33.39]And start to ring me on the line [01:34.83]I say "I'll beg your pardon please [01:36.51]If I'm disturbin' the peace [01:37.76]But then the fault's not really mine" [01:39.32]It's just that [01:39.88]Somethin' takes over [01:40.38]Somethin' takes over my soul [01:42.44]And soon I get to reelin' [01:43.63]'Cause of all the joy I'm feelin' [01:44.92]Till I'm very nearly out of control [01:46.42]Just like the rollin' [01:47.66]Of the waters of the mighty sea [01:49.36]When I'm connected to the spirit [01:50.91]Heavenly Father's sure to hear it [01:52.34]'Cause somethin' takes over me [01:53.35]Well it was just the other morning [01:54.72]While I was prayin' I was praisin' the Lord [01:56.29]Thankin' Him for everything that He's done [01:57.73]And all that He means to me [01:59.54]I got to thinkin' really deep [02:00.72]And it occurred to me [02:01.66]That all I really wanted was more of Him [02:03.41]Just to be closer no Sir [02:04.97] [02:05.98]I couldn't sit there anymore [02:07.67]You know I had to get up [02:08.73]On the roof of the house [02:09.73]Raisin' my hands and shoutin' [02:10.96]"Lord take me higher higher hgher" [02:14.54]I guess the neighbors [02:15.41]Must have misunderstood my intentions [02:16.29]You could say I got carried away [02:17.41]'Cause they thought I was shoutin' 'Fire' [02:18.66]Like the house was burning down [02:19.71]And I was about to be D O A [02:21.09](What a laugh) [02:21.71]They called the hook and ladder truck [02:24.27]A policeman and the ambulance too [02:25.89]And everybody's running around on the lawn [02:27.90]But nobody knows what to do [02:29.59]And all this time I'm standin' there [02:31.16]On the roof of the house [02:32.29]With my hands in the air [02:33.29]Havin' a wonderful time with the Lord [02:34.60](I told you Christians rarely get bored) [02:36.10]But before too long they figured out [02:38.41]There's no spark or flame [02:39.40]To be worried about [02:40.15]And then they all got pretty steamed [02:42.36]And as they're about to do their worst to me [02:45.92]I saw a golden opportunity [02:47.73]And from my high and lofty perch [02:49.35]I preached a sermon like it was church [02:50.85]And when I was finished they forgave me [02:53.15]For the crazy way that I raved [02:55.03]Now I know that all things work for good [02:56.96]'Cause they all ended up gettin' saved [02:58.65]Somethin' takes over [03:00.65]Somethin' takes over my soul [03:02.58]And soon I get to reelin' [03:03.82]'Cause of all the joy I'm feelin' [03:05.14]Till I'm very nearly out of control [03:06.64]Just like the rollin' [03:07.88]Of the waters of the mighty sea [03:09.50]When I'm connected to the spirit [03:10.94]Heavenly Father's sure to hear it [03:12.06]'Cause somethin' takes over me [03:13.19]Somethin' takes over me
