When I first met his momma, she was just 19
G7                              F      C
Couldn't say for certain who the father was
Am                            Dsus4 D
I have known him since he was a pup

And I'm gonna raise him up

If you never knew your daddy like I never knew mine
  G7                                F     C
It feels like everybody knows you're fatherless
Am                          Dsus4  D
This boy may not be blood of my blood

But I'm gonna raise him up

You have to look at Joseph a couple thousand years ago

Am                       Dsus4 D
He may not be blood of my blood

Still I'm gonna raise him up

33 years later, when the Son was in His grave
C                                         D
Broken and abandoned by a world He came to save
     G                C                D
His real Dad said He's mine blood of My blood
             C         G  C G
And I'm gonna raise Him up

And He can change your world, but you gotta raise Him up
