"My question to you, if someone were to say 'who are you?'
The first word that popped into your mind and out your mouth
would it be 'I am a slave'?"
-Paul Washer
These are the chains I bear
and not because I chose them
I'd be damned if left up to me
yea, I'd be hopeless
Bound for hell, filth & sin was my process
a son of wrath & unbelief
Lustful, & I loved it
Profane, & I loved it
A bastard, & I loved it
But who could resist Your will?
I've known from before yet I attempt to still
With no obligations You forgave all my sins
You killed Your Son that I would live,
& live life abundantly
Now you will not mess with my cause
& you will not mess with my church
yea, you will not mess with my family
you will not make light of wicked deeds
& much less of my King
My call to forgive is not a call to give in
Intolerant, bound by truth
but the fact we disagree
doesn't mean that I hate you.
Your soul matters to God
& so it matters to me
You say I'm brainwashed
& I say "I wish"
