1st Verse:
Oh, When it seems like God is not listening or caring
And my fire for him has become a little dim and routine
Well I guess I ain't feeling the love from up above
So is it somebody I need to forgive
Is it the way that I'm living?
Lord show me - clearly
Then a light goes on
It starts to dawn on me
And then eventually I begin to see
That it is simply I need to get back to basics

2nd Verse:
Hey Christian brother sister
On the road a long time
In church every Sunday, sometimes even Monday
But it's a routine
We've got church membership, God wants a relationship
If deep inside you know that something is missing

Continue to listen and maybe like me
A light goes on
And it starts to dawn on you
And then eventually you begin to see
That it is simply we need to incorporate some basics
I don't know about you but I need a few

Chorus:
Basics - fasting praying seeking God's face
The Word daily
A consistent sacrifice through worship and praise
Seeking not our will, but God's will God's way
To encounter Jesus anew everyday

Bridge:
Yeah, yeah just seek ye first the kingdom of God
And His righteousness
And all other things will be added unto you

Chorus
