Your Testimony Starts With a Test

I woke up one morning, pillow stained with tears Had so many trails and burdens through the years I heard the voice of Jesus, He said, "I'm going to bless But you can't have this testimony 'til you pass the test" I was out of money, all my bills were due I called my friends to help me, but they were struggling too My Jesus whispered to me, "I'll give you peace and rest But if you want this testimony, you must pass the test" (Hold on, hold on, stand fast and never stray!) My God has promised, He'll always make a way (Be strong), keep strong (keep the faith, get ready to be blessed) (Your testimony starts with a test!) (Hold on, hold on, stand fast and never stray!)
