Sebuah lagu yang lirik-liriknya mendorong orang-orang percaya untuk memberitakan pengalaman hidupnya di dalam Tuhan dinyanyikan oleh Lecrae. Diarransemen dengan gaya musik Hip-Hop, lagu berjudul Tell The World ini begitu enak didengar.
Kehadiran Mali Music di dalamnya semakin menambah keindahan karya tersebut. Tidak heran pada ajang Dove Awards 2013 lalu, Tell The World meraih piala untuk kategori Rap Hip-Hop Song.
Secara beat, memang Tell The World bukanlah lagu bertempo cepat. Namun bunyi-bunyi hentakan yang dimasukkan dapat membuat siapapun yang mendengarnya berjingkrak.
Bagi Jawaban, akhirnya ada satu lagi lagu Kristen kontemporer yang bisa dijadikan koleksi untuk didengarkan hari-hari.

D
I'm brand new
(Verse 2)
I can't offer you nothin, but your care and kindness keep comin
And your love is so unconditional, I get butterflies in my stomach
I got the old me in the rearview, gotta new me, gotta clear view
I was so dead, I couldn't hear you
Too deep in sin to come near you
But you drew me in, and cleaned me up
And take me home and beamed me up
Before you do, just let me tell the truth
And let these folks know that I done seeing your love
And it's everlastin, infinite
It goes on and on, you can't measure it
Can't quench your love, they can't separate us from the love of God
It's no estimate
My face look the same, my frame done rearranged
But I changed, I promise I aint the same
Your love is so deep, you suffered and took pain
And died on the cross to gimme a new name
Aint nothin like I seen before
I gotta beam to glow
Was low, down, and dirty but you cleaned me Lord
You looked after me, you keep rockin me
Imma tell the world and aint nobody stoppin me
(Chorus)
Tryna make the moments last
Holdin on to the past
But like a hero in a dream
Christ came and He rescused me!
Now I'mma tell the world, tell the world, tell em
I'mma tell it everywhere I go
Tell the world, tell em
Yea I'mma billboard
Tell the world, tell em
Cast Him like a radio
Tell the world you are to know
I'm brand new
(Verse 3; 2 Corinthians 5:17)
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,
He is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.
Yea, I'm brand new
(Chorus)
Now I'mma tell the world, tell the world, tell em
I'mma tell it everywhere I go
Tell the world, tell em
Yea I'mma billboard
Tell the world, tell em
Cast Him like a radio
Tell the world you are to know
I'm brand new
