Tribl Records shares the official music video for “Why We Sing” featuring Brandon Lake, Maverick City Music, and Kirk Franklin. The track was written by Franklin and is from the collab album with Maverick City Music titled Kingdom Book One.
Kingdom was recorded with the inmates at the Everglades Correctional Institution in Miami-Dade, Florida in early March of 2022. The heart behind this project is to not only expand the idea of what the Kingdom of God looks like, but to also share and spread music and a message that taps into an inspirational and unfiltered love for all people.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Someone asked question
Why do we sing?
When we lift our hands toJesus
What do we really mean?
Someone maybe wondering
When we sing our song
At times we may be crying
And nothing’s even wrong
Pre Chorus
I sing because I’m happy
I sing because I’m free
His eye is on the sparrow
That’s the reason why I sing
Chorus
Glory hallelujah
You’re the reason why I sing
Glory hallelujah
You’re the reason why I sing
Verse 2
And when the song is over
We’ve all said amen
In your heart just keep on singing
And the song will never end
And if somebody asks you
Was it just a show
Lift your hands and be a witness
And tell the whole world now
And when we cross that river
To study war no more
We will sing our songs toJesus
The one whom we adore
Chorus 2
Glory hallelujah
I give the praises to you
Glory hallelujah
You’re the reason why I sing
