A God Like You Lyrics

Everybody wanna be like you they
want power and praise like you but
see there is no god like our God
there's no one like
who gave their life you and
who payed our price like you see
there's only one god that's our God
there's no one like you.

who can touch like you
or heal us like you do
we stumble and we stray
til' you always get us thru
who makes all things new
and comes to our rescue
death, hell, and the grave
they could not conquor

you became just like me
to unlock and set free
this prisoner that was deeply wounded and redeemed
the me i could not see

Everybody wanna be like you they
want power and praise like you but
see there is no god like our God
there's no one like
who gave their life you and
who payed our price like you see
there's only one god that's our God
there's no one like you.

some may worship things
but what joy do they bring
they try and hide the stains
but can they set us free
see where would we be
without calvery
a king upon a tree
so the whole world can see

you became just like me
To unlock and set free
this prisoner that was deeply wounded and redeemed
the me I could not see

Everybody wanna be like you they
want power and praise like you but
see there is no god like our God
there's no one like
who gave their life you and
who payed our price like you see
there's only one god that's our God
there's no one like you.

Healer, father, savoir
counselor, friend, provider
was is and forever
that's why I just wanna be where you are
I'll travel life with you no matter how far

Healer, father, savoir
counselor, friend, provider
was is and forever
that's why I just wanna be where you are
I'll travel life with you no matter how far

hey hey hey
Became just like me
to unlock and set free
this prisoner that was deeply wounded and redeemed

the me i could not see
Everybody wanna be like you they
want power and praise like but
see there is no god like our God
there's no one like
who gave their life you and
who payed our price like you see
there's only one god that's our God

there's no one like you.
There's no one like you, there's no one like you, there's no god like our God
there's no one like you
there's no one like you
there's no one like you
there is no god like our god, there's no one like you
there's no one like you
there's no one like you
there's no god like our god, there's no one like you
there's no one like you
There is no god like our god, there's no one like you
There's no one like you
There's no god like our god, there's no one like you
there's no one like you
There's no god like our god, there's no one like you
There's no one like you
There's no god like our god, there's no one like you
There's no one like you
There's no god like our god, there's no one like you

Kirk Franklin (born January 26, 1970 in Riverside, Texas) is a platinum-selling musician who blended gospel, hip hop, and R&B in the 1990s. He released his first gospel album, Kirk Franklin & Family, in 1993, and is known as the leader of contemporary gospel choirs such as Kirk Franklin & the Family, Kirk Franklin's Nu Nation, and God's Property.


A native of Fort Worth, Texas, he was raised by his aunt, Gertrude Franklin. He developed a talent for music early, playing the piano at age four and becoming music director of his church at age eleven. After getting kicked out of school in his teenaged years, having a girlfriend become pregnant, and after a friend was shot to death he returned to the church. After leading the DFW Mass Choir at the 1990 Gospel Music Workshop of America Convention, he organized "The Family", a seventeen-voice choir, in 1992 and began his recording career.

He has integrated hip hop styles with gospel themes in albums such as The Nu Nation Project and God's Property, which achieved success on the Billboard Pop Album, R&B and gospel charts.
Franklin has collaborated with the biggest names in gospel music, including Tonex, Donnie McClurkin, Richard Smallwood, Crystal Lewis, Pastor Shirley Caesar, Jaci Valesquez, and Willie Neal Johnson. He also has displayed a willingness to collaborate with artists in the secular realm, including Bono, Mary J. Blige, Crystal Lewis, and R Kelly in the hit single, "Lean on Me."

On October 4, 2005, his new long-awaited album Hero was released, with latest single Looking for You.
