In Control, as in ‘God Is In Control’, tells several TRUE STORIES of being delivered. Starting with child abuse. Then events that happened before Anthony knew he was about to face a child custody problem in Colorado while he lived in Wichita Kansas and was in training in Rochester New York. Then extreme fighting with his then wife where he almost jumped out of a moving car. Then escaping an inevitable murder of his family and kids.

Verse 1
Well I was born in the wrong family
With a fist an uncle DID take advantage of me
That’s not the way that it’s supposed to be, no no
This man really did hurt me, but God is
IN CONTROL
Over powered I looked UP to the front seat
I see my brother looking BACK at us with tears in his eyes
I’m thinking that we must have both prayed that day
Cuz suddenly the pain was gone, God is
IN CONTROL
I woke up hanging upside down from a tree, no no no no
That’s not the way it’s spossed to be. All I could do was Pray
I said God please help me
And then I heard – God’s In Control
Chorus 1
The Holy Spirit’s always here and loves you
With the Father and the Son Trinity is God
Need only ask and God is by your side
GOD’S IN CONTROL
Verse 2
I was in New York for training that day, family back home
In the classroom there was no telephone
But a customer emergency
They brought in a phone for me
IN CONTROL
I had to prove the number I had was right
So I called my wife said call me if you might
Not knowing later she would need to call
Our family was just about to fall, court threat
IN CONTROL
And to get on that flight in time was not gonna happen
It took many miracles and I realized
my family was about to go down down down,
and then I heard – God’s In Control
Chorus 2
The airport was too far to get there in time
Yet there was one in the classroom said he’d make it so
It was his home town, and it happened
GOD’S IN CONTROL
Verse 2
It’s true my whole life I have found myself blessed, yes yes yes yes
Sometimes I wonder why cuz I’m not the best
I’m just a man with sin
Yet God has let me in, it’s true
IN CONTROL
There’s been several times I’ve witnessed true deliverance from God
Before I even realized the problem
Certain things happened
Can’t be coincidence
IN CONTROL
My Wife was attacking me so hard I just wanted to Kill myself
I reached for the handle on a moving car on the highway I was gonna jump out
and then I heard – God’s In Control
Chorus 2
Then the Holy Spirt came upon me
Showed me all the things that had happened to me that day
That helped deliver me
Verse 3
The most chilling time I’ve ever been delivered
Was from the man known as the BTK killer
Well he was after my family
I’ve got proof if you want to see
IN CONTROL
As part of his job he said he would fine me
Can’t keep my dogs in the yard
Yet it turned out that it was he that was letting them out
Man it just made me want to SHOUT
IN CONTROL
You see my wife she had just told me that she didn’t feel comfortable
Somebody was in the house so she kept the dogs by her side
Then when he was arrested they asked is anyone lucky to be alive?
I can’t believe his words he said
IN CONTROL
Yeah either I was hiding in the basement and no one came home
or there were dogs – There were dogs? He’s killed entire families
and then I heard – God’s In Control
Chorus 2
The Holy Spirt once again came upon me
With interaction with this man I knew that we were saved
God simply said NO!
IN CONTROL
Chorus 3
If you haven’t given your life to Jesus
Do it now because you too can also be saved, yes
And you’ll be safe for this I pray
IN CONTROL
[Ending Chant]
You see, all you have to do is say “dear Lord I accept Jesus Christ as my personal savior! I believe he died on a cross and shed his blood for the forgiveness of my sin.” For what sin could be worse than crucifying, Killing Jesus? None! Join me. Give your life to God. Accept Jesus as your personal savior.
As in God is In Control!
