in these remaining days, let us not be tangled in
|
mankind's celebration of itself
|
rather, let us live as children of God
|
for what fellowship hath light and darkness
|
good with evil?
|
shall grace be as pearls to swine
|
or held higher than gold?
|
|
let them know the difference
|
|
keep your signs - hold your banners yourself
|
send no "latest cause" this way
|
need no factions, political distractions
|
keep them out of my face
|
spare the fashion codes and social pars
|
and the vanity of it all
|
to subscribe would be to sell-out
|
and to set up for a fall
|
|
can't you see the road you travel down
|
leads swiftly to your end
|
sold as slaves for a place to hide
|
a temporary defense
|
|
then he'll come, all will be lost
|
you'll be swept with the tide, your shelter of clay
|
he's calling, protection is here
|
your grip will not hold when your world's laid to waste
|
Lord, grant me the strength, to follow your path
|
to not go astray i, alone in myself
|
I'm feeling the pull, Lord, grant me the strength
|
|
once again breathing down my neck
|
the smell of the generous leach
|
the liberating hypocrite
|
come to save, to teach, to preach
|
to save me from my slavery
|
|
from a God who doesn't know what's best
|
look - keep your rebellion to yourself
|
you don't know me, my God, or the life I live
|
|
not a patriot, revolutionist
|
not a left or right wing voice
|
don't need a liberal or conservative
|
to tell me about freedom of choice
|
my freedom comes from God above
|
forgiveness beyond comprehension
|
stregth not found in earthly powers
|
the only true deliverance
|
