Lekisha Earles - The First Shall Be Last

It has been my story to be always counted out
And even talked about like I wasn't good enough
And I began to believe it and I almost chose to settle for a lesser standard in my destitute
So many times I failed and failed and failed
And I failed to take a stand Feeling so lost in my transgressions overcome by circumstance
Until I lifted up mine eyes one day and I cried to the Lord
And I asked Him to remove my pain and He replace it with joy

It doesn't matter oh no what you see
No longer bothers me what you think or you believe
Cause I found me value oh yes and now I know my worth
He said the first shall be last and the last shall be first

I was rejected just an outcast from within and I was never meant to win
That's what the devil sold me he tried to control me
And oh how he had me oh yes
He had me bounded in my mind but the Lord stepped in right on time
And now I am victorious
He made me victorious
I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me
And there are no limitations on my dreams not my dreams

It doesn't matter what you see No longer bothers me what you think or you believe
Cause I found my value and now I know my worth
He said the first shall be last and the last shall be first

You know what In my life I've lived with so much negativity
People always want to remind you about what you used to be
But when you learn to stand up and on the Word of God
That you have the authority in the name of Jesus

Then you can say what you want about me
It doesn't matter what you see - No longer bothers me what you think or you believe
Cause I found me value I found my value and now I know my worth
He said the first shall be last and the last shall be first
He said the first shall be last and the last shall be first
He said the first shall be last and the last shall be first
