lyrics
SPIRIT IN CONTROL
(The Strangers)
I’VE BEEN RESCUED FROM THE DARKNESS;
I’VE BEEN RESCUED FROM MY SHAME
GOD PULLED ME OUT OF HELL’S FIRE;
HE’S GIVEN ME A BRAND NEW NAME
NOW, TO THIS WORLD, I’M A STRANGER,
AN ALIEN FROM ANOTHER PLAIN
I’M JUST A-PASSIN’ THRU,
AND I TESTIFY ABOUT THE TRUTH
HE MADE A WAY FOR ME, FOR YOU
TO LIVE THE WAY HE WANTS US TO
TALKIN’ ABOUT FAITH, TALKIN’ ABOUT HOPE,
TALKIN’ ABOUT A LOVE THAT’S IN MY SOUL
TALKIN’ ABOUT PEACE, TALKIN’ ABOUT JOY,
TALKIN’ ABOUT THE SPIRIT IN CONTROL
(The Strangers)
I’VE BEEN RESCUED FROM THE DARKNESS;
I’VE BEEN RESCUED FROM MY SHAME
GOD PULLED ME OUT OF HELL’S FIRE;
HE’S GIVEN ME A BRAND NEW NAME
NOW, TO THIS WORLD, I’M A STRANGER,
AN ALIEN FROM ANOTHER PLAIN
I’M JUST A-PASSIN’ THRU,
AND I TESTIFY ABOUT THE TRUTH
HE MADE A WAY FOR ME, FOR YOU
TO LIVE THE WAY HE WANTS US TO
TALKIN’ ABOUT FAITH, TALKIN’ ABOUT HOPE,
TALKIN’ ABOUT A LOVE THAT’S IN MY SOUL
TALKIN’ ABOUT PEACE, TALKIN’ ABOUT JOY,
TALKIN’ ABOUT THE SPIRIT IN CONTROL

they combine classic soul, contemporary R&B and African elements into a singular and multi-faceted sound.
The band has been together since 1998 as the result of a music jam at a church mens retreat.
