Foremost
Picking myself apart.
Saying things that I would never say, or do.
Persecute my closest friends, lie bout when I do.
Crowd around the crowd to watch kids get kicked and bruised.
I pretend like I am praying; surely, I am not
I am a mantis, I have been caught.
But I recieved mercy for this reason:
That in me as the foremost,
In me as the foremost Jesus Christ might
Display his perfect patience and his kindness,
His love that mends the broken
And teaches me that I'm not past forgiveness.
Speaking the words of truth.
Mending bones that I could never mend myself.
Breathing life into my lungs,
Showing me the way.
Patiently my teacher;
Teaching to obey.
Guiding me upon still waters,
Trusting in his way.
It's easier said than done,
But power is in His name.
I recieved mercy for this reason:
That in me as the foremost,
In me as the foremost Jesus Christ might
Display his perfect patience and his kindness,
His love that mends the broken
And teaches me that I'm not past forgiveness.
That I'm not past forgiveness.
Saying things that I would never say, or do.
Persecute my closest friends, lie bout when I do.
Crowd around the crowd to watch kids get kicked and bruised.
I pretend like I am praying; surely, I am not
I am a mantis, I have been caught.
But I recieved mercy for this reason:
That in me as the foremost,
In me as the foremost Jesus Christ might
Display his perfect patience and his kindness,
His love that mends the broken
And teaches me that I'm not past forgiveness.
Speaking the words of truth.
Mending bones that I could never mend myself.
Breathing life into my lungs,
Showing me the way.
Patiently my teacher;
Teaching to obey.
Guiding me upon still waters,
Trusting in his way.
It's easier said than done,
But power is in His name.
I recieved mercy for this reason:
That in me as the foremost,
In me as the foremost Jesus Christ might
Display his perfect patience and his kindness,
His love that mends the broken
And teaches me that I'm not past forgiveness.
That I'm not past forgiveness.
