I told you about the work and all that it means
|
God came down as Jesus and fulfilled the the ultimate dream
|
A gift wrapped in His blood and it's ours to take
|
You will hear that the just shall live by faith
|
|
But I sing a song sung so many times before
|
A familiar message with familiar holes
|
You should have questions and they should be answered
|
It will not happen while I stand up here and you sit down there
|
|
Straight up/down
|
The time will come
|
|
There¡¯s more to the Gospel than this
|
But everybody seems to want the Reader¡¯s Digest
|
I too am guilty of encapsulation
|
To a concise five-step plan of salvation
|
|
But can you blame me when we're on the Titanic
|
On this sinking system of things satanic
|
Like Paul walking down the gallery of the gods
|
In a battle where it gets hard to like the odds
|
|
Straight up/down
|
|
I could be hit and run and shove it down your throat
|
To win the argument would be my highest hope
|
And maybe make you say the words and pray they're true
|
Just like how everybody taught me to do
|
|
But you could grab the Book and start to read for yourself
|
Not decide on your afterlife from the words of my mouth
|
Matthew Mark Luke John could probably tell the story best
