I was born
To preach the gospel
I was born
To preach the gospel
I was born
To preach the gospel
And I sure do love my job
Well, I ain't never been to no college
And I didn't get a chance in school
But when Jesus Christ
Anointed me to preach the gospel
He didn't leave me no fool
I was born
To preach the gospel
I was born
To preach the gospel
I was born
To preach the gospel
And I sure do love my job
Now, there's a lot of educated preachers
Who are all mixed up in the head
They got their hearts
Fixed on gold
And are walkin' around
Spiritually dead
I was born
To preach the gospel
I was born
To preach the gospel
I was born
To preach the gospel
And I sure do love my job
Well, preachers, they outta stick together
But everyone has split
What the church
Needs right now
Is to regenerate the pulpit
I was born
To preach the gospel
I was born
To preach the gospel
I was born
To preach the gospel
And I sure do love my job
I said, I sure do love my God
