Group 1 Crew’s new single, He Said, features Dove Award winner Chris August, and is arguably one of the best songs out of the three-member now two-member Contemporary Christian R&B/pop/rap band. August’s clear, crystal voice certainly does stand out, but Blanca Reyes’ chorus, overflowing with passion and faith, is so convincing and full that He Said is irresistible to the Contemporary Christian pop aficionado. It’s not exactly like most of the recent singles from Outta Space Love – it’s lifted off the upcoming album Outta Space Love: Bigger Love Edition – but it’s a fantastic pop song. I liked it instantly, and here’s the brutal truth: I think Group 1 Crew’s He Said deserves to go all the way to #1. Way to go, G1C! You have a clear winner with this one!
HE SAID Lyrics
Group 1 Crew featuring Chris August
So your life feels like it don’t make sense
And you think to yourself, “I’m a good person
So why do these things keep happening
Why you gotta deal with them
You may be knowcked down now
But don’t forget what he said
What he said
He said
“I won’t give you more
More than you can take in
I might let you bend
But I won’t let you break
You know oh
I’ll never ever let you go”
Don’t you forget what He said
Don’t forget what He said
He said
Who you are and what you’re going throughn (yeah)
So don’t let it get the best of you
Cuz God knows everything you need
So you ain’t gotta worry
You may be knocked down now
But just believe what He said
He said
“I won’t give you more
More than you can take in
I might let you bend
But I won’t let you break
You know oh
I’ll never ever let you go”
Don’t you forget what He said
Don’t forget what He said
He said
Don’t fear when you go through the fire
Hang on when it’s down to the wire
Stand tall and remember what He said
“I won’t give you more
More than you can take in
I might let you bend
But I won’t let you break
“I won’t give you more
More than you can take in
I might let you bend
But I won’t let you break
You know oh
I’ll never ever let you go”
Don’t you forget what He said
Don’t forget what He said
He said
Don’t forget what He said
Don’t forget what He said
Don’t forget what He said
I won’t give you more
He said
