HEARERS AND DOERS
04:08

written by Patrick Best
(based on Romans 2)
therefore no excuse whomever you are
in judgement of others condemning yourself
doing such things as you have judged
expecting to escape the wrath of the Bearer
do you despise His riches of kindness?
meant to bring you to your own repentance
by your impenitent heart you store
wrath on the day retributions revealed
hearers
doers
judge not - righteous judgement will come
judge not - verdicts will be made known
hearers and doers - hearers and doers - hearers and doers
doth thou seek Truth?
for He will repay as their deeds deserve
aimed for His glory or self-seeking lives
for all who sin apart from the law
will suffer and perish in absence of His rule
under the law to sin they lay claim
and shall be decreed by the Holy One
tis not hearers of the law who are righteous
but doers will be justified in His eyes
hearers
doers
judge not - righteous judgement will come
judge not - verdicts will be made known
hearers and doers - hearers and doers - hearers and doers
doth thou seek Truth?
what man has done
the moral tenor of life
the standard by which
thou judgement comes the last day
judge not - righteous judgement will come
judge not - verdicts will be made known
judge not - strife and distress will come
judge not - honor and peace made known
hearers and doers - hearers and doers - hearers and doers
doth thou seek Truth?

INTO THE SWINE
04:58
|
|||
written by Patrick Best
(based on Mark 5:1-20)
a man from the tombs, with an unclean spirit, doomed
unable to be restrained, no chains nor strength, contained
nite and day he howled and self maimed, his body covered in wounds
from the caves he ran bruised and bowed, on his knees shouting loud
"what have You to do with me?"
"Son of the Most High God"
"i beg of You, do not torment me"
"come out of this man," Christ commands thee"
enter - into the swine - begging the Master they denied
enter - into the swine - permission given to reside
into the swine
at the hand of the Divine
"oh send us into the swine" - "oh please let us enter them"
"we beg of You, please no abyss" - "demon, what is your name?"
legion it said and they entered the herd on a hillside roaming untamed down the steep bank they rushed insane and into the sea drowned the claimed
"what have You to do with me?"
"Son of the Most High God"
"i beg of You, do not torment me"
"come out of this man," Christ commands thee"
enter - into the swine - begging the Master they denied
enter - into the swine - permission given to reside
into the swine
at the hand of the Divine
townspeople heard and came to see
while looking upon in fear
for the man was clothed and in right mind
with Jesus there and two thousand dead swine
enter - into the swine - begging the Master they denied
enter - into the swine - permission given to reside
into the swine
at the hand of the Divine
"go and tell everyone, the work in you the Lord has done"
"go and tell Decapolis, the mercy you've been shown"
