lyrics version 1
What's wrong with this body
Ah this body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
You know this body needs healing
And it needs to be filled
We ought to stand on our feet and start trying
If a man should divorce the wife of his youth
Just to marry another woman
And his life goes off course and he strays from the truth
Let his fall be to all a kind of omen
What's a wrong with this body
Ah this body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
You know this body needs healing
We need to be filled
We got to stand on our feet and start trying
When a friend turns his back and grows jealous and cruel
And tries to destroy your reputation
You will gain what he takes
If you pray for that friend
And you concentrate on your own salvation
Come on what's wrong with this body
Ah this body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
You know this body needs healing
It needs to be filled
We've got to stand on our feet and start tying [I believe Larry mis-sung the word trying]
Go
What's wrong with this body
This body is [ill]
It's full of dis[ease] and it's [dying]
You know this body needs [healing]
It needs to be [filled]
You got to stand on your [feet] and start [trying]
You people are sick
What's a wrong with this body
This a body is ill
It's full of dis[ease and it's dying] and it's dying
You know this body needs healing
And need to be filled
We've got to stand on your feet
You've got to get on your knees
You've got to fall on your face and start dying to self
And living unto, living unto God
Woo
Ah this body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
You know this body needs healing
And it needs to be filled
We ought to stand on our feet and start trying
If a man should divorce the wife of his youth
Just to marry another woman
And his life goes off course and he strays from the truth
Let his fall be to all a kind of omen
What's a wrong with this body
Ah this body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
You know this body needs healing
We need to be filled
We got to stand on our feet and start trying
When a friend turns his back and grows jealous and cruel
And tries to destroy your reputation
You will gain what he takes
If you pray for that friend
And you concentrate on your own salvation
Come on what's wrong with this body
Ah this body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
You know this body needs healing
It needs to be filled
We've got to stand on our feet and start tying [I believe Larry mis-sung the word trying]
Go
What's wrong with this body
This body is [ill]
It's full of dis[ease] and it's [dying]
You know this body needs [healing]
It needs to be [filled]
You got to stand on your [feet] and start [trying]
You people are sick
What's a wrong with this body
This a body is ill
It's full of dis[ease and it's dying] and it's dying
You know this body needs healing
And need to be filled
We've got to stand on your feet
You've got to get on your knees
You've got to fall on your face and start dying to self
And living unto, living unto God
Woo
lyrics version 2
If a man should divorce the wife of his youth
Just to marry another woman
And his life goes off course and he strays from the truth
Let his fall be to all a kind of omen
What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
It needs to be filled
We've got to stand on our feet and start trying
When a friend turns his back and grows jealous and cruel
And tries to destroy your reputation
You will gain what he takes
If you pray for your friend
And you concentrate on your own salvation
If a woman deserts her faithful husband at home
And pursues other men, she'll lose contentment
Let him pray for renewal and find comfort through faith
And recover from bitterness and resentment
I said what's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
It needs to be filled
We've got to stand on our feet and start trying
Could you turn this piano up louder so I don't have to hit it so hard?
Louder than that
Is it up yet?
I'm getting old [Spoken]
Many are called but just a few walk the path
And while others get sidetracked by illusion
Some of you others, some of you brothers just stand there and laugh
And the world keeps on stumbling in confusion
And there are false ministers preaching from the conceits of their minds
Misleading their congregations
They twist and bend the scriptures for financial designs
And they are keeping revival from our nation
I said what's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
It needs to be filled
We've got to stand on our feet
We've got to get on our knees
We've got to fall on our face
And start dying
Just to marry another woman
And his life goes off course and he strays from the truth
Let his fall be to all a kind of omen
What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
It needs to be filled
We've got to stand on our feet and start trying
When a friend turns his back and grows jealous and cruel
And tries to destroy your reputation
You will gain what he takes
If you pray for your friend
And you concentrate on your own salvation
If a woman deserts her faithful husband at home
And pursues other men, she'll lose contentment
Let him pray for renewal and find comfort through faith
And recover from bitterness and resentment
I said what's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing

And start dying
lyrics version 3
If a man turns his back on the faith of his youth
To pursue earthly ways, he'll lose contentment
When he falls on hard times we should pray for that friend
Help to heal him from bitterness and resentment
What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
We need to be filled
We've got to stand to our feet and start trying
When your friend slipped away, caught up in their own lies
And fake rumours, embellished your reputation
Then the Lord will restore the years the locusts have eaten
If you concentrate on your own salvation
What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
We need to be filled
We've got to stand to our feet and start trying
When the strength of your hope fades and withers within
You must cast all your cares upon heaven
You must die unto self and live unto God
And keep walking the path of the forgiven
What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
We need to be filled
We've got to stand to our feet and start trying [x2]
Let him pray for that da-nun
Da la ta da da da
And recover from bitterness and resentment
Well what's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
We need to be filled
We got to stand to our feet and start trying
To pursue earthly ways, he'll lose contentment
When he falls on hard times we should pray for that friend
Help to heal him from bitterness and resentment
What's wrong with this body

You must cast all your cares upon heaven
You must die unto self and live unto God
And keep walking the path of the forgiven
