What can wash away my sin
nothing but the blood of Jesus
we have created the vain lives that we lead
society watch as you bleed

the beat of the clock to watch the grand tick tock
God's unmerited favor
not of yourselves it is a gift from God
one seed was dropped out of a farmer's bag

in time roots sprang up out of the fertile soil
a plant sprouted from the ground
shadows break apart the morning dew
God's love for us is the great eternal constant

amidst all the inconsistencies of your daily walk
when the ninety nine sheep were in the fold
God's heart was with the one that was lost
let's look above to the heavenly love

merciful one come take this chip off my shoulder
stop the senseless fighting before are nation grows colder
never relent to ever give up on the fight
faith isn't intellectualized it just is

a beacon of light to a much hurting world in need
how you fought so hard and fierce
my one true love is gone from here
a challenge to be free is a question of time

my one solution is using my mind
living on the edge and it's going to my head
sitting up at night all alone in bed
following the rainbow to the sky

I see a beautiful vision of you pass me by
our war were in is almost over
it's so hard to believe I lost my lover
loving you is so untrue that's why I must say to you

your to young to fall in love if you don't stop you'll just get shoved
