You Can't Tame This Deity
How you gonna reckon with a God like this?
When you gonna face what you can't dismiss?
Whatcha gonna say to the... Soul Kiss that is my God?
Fearsome like the sag in a fat man's chair?
Sweeter than a patch of Rogaine hair?
How do you define what you can't compare?
This is... My God
And there's no use explaining what can't be contained
I'm not following a God I can lead around
I Can't tame this deity
That's why Jesus is the final answer
to Who I want my God to be!
He's Who (I want my God to be...)
How you gonna reckon with a God this Great?
Why you gonna measure what you can't equate?
Whatcha gonna say to the... Checkmate that is my God?
Stronger than the burn of an aftershave?
Tender as a burger in your microwave, rarer than the air in an empty grave?
This is... My God
And there's no use explaining what can't be contained
How we gonna work this out?
To fabricate a God like this?
No doubt
We'd end up worshipping a Christ of our own design
But Jesus doesn't fit that profile
His ways aren't mine
I'm not following A God that's imagined!
Can't invent his deity
That's why Jesus is the final answer
to who I want my God to be
He's Who I want my God to be.
Newsboys-Who?
Amen.

hi ryan
the last great Christian band. Since Audio A. is breaking/broken up.
elaborate...
All the old bands... Newsboys, DC Talk, Supertones, Five Iron Frenzy, Audio Adrenaline.... the ones with the most albums, the coolest songs, and best lyrics. And of those bands, only Newsboys is still together.
It's a shame. So many of the new bands don't even compare. Seems like everyone does covers and praise-and-worship songs these days, instead of using talent to create original songs.
I miss supertones the most... they were the only Calvinist band.
i keep hearing crazy rumours about dcTalk getting together again, once all those silly side projects are done with.
that would be nice... I should look into that. I'd like to see Reese Roper put out some more stuff tho.. it's no FIF, but since its the same writer (and singer), its pretty awesome. I heard rumor of a 3rd BraveSaintSaturn project too...
