A GIFT
WAS BOUGHT
LOOK WHAT GOD HATH
WROUGHT
THE PRICE
THATS
PAID
WAS
HEAVY LAID
TO HEAR
THE PRAISE
From THOSE
HE SAVED
GLORY
BE THE NAME
ABOVE
EVERY
NAME
WHOM
GAVE THE GIFT
AND DIED
TO
SAVE.
BEHAVE
YOU SAY
WHAT FOR?
THE GRAVE?
WE’LL DIE ONE DAY
THE WAGE
OF SIN IS DEATH
YET YOU DENY?
Ok...
Then explain to me
why you stumble and
fall
in the dark you crawl (in the dark I crawled)
you spew your drink
lick it up
and yet appalled
into the
same routine
denying your sin
so you can live it up
You don’t win
just because you
deny
the scene.
The American dream
Is dead
Don’t
waste
Your life
on
nothing
(personal peace & affluence-Schaefer)
Without sin
who needs a savior?
If it’s not God who chooses
then someone
has to be better
If it’s not Gods
choice in sanctifying sinners
we are all gods
in charge of our own
salvation
A GIFT
THAT WAS BOUGHT
AND PAID
IS NOT
A THING
YOU EXPECT
WHEN
YOU
KNOW
YOU DESERVE
NOTHING
BUT
DAMNATION
And
PAIN
JESUS
DIED
FOR HIMSELF
AND HE WHO
HE DIES FOR
IS
SAVED
All that remain
wouldn’t want HIM
anyway.
SO LISTEN
CLOSE
LIVE FOR
ETERNITY
DON’T
WASTE YOUR LIFE
AWAY
For Fame
Vain
Glory
Collecting
Sea shells on the sea shore
otherwise
It’ll vex your
soul
If you stay
consistent
with the
human
condition
