Now I see where I went wrong. Beliefs I held were far from grace. My hand in lives became their fall, I crushed their pain with wanton lies. Ominous grace as judgement passed, My faith has become my one regret. My eyes were blind to the pain they felt, But now I see my hardened past. For who can love but God alone? The fruit I offered was far from gone. "Behold the righteous!  Behold her zeal!" My face was masked with haughty prayer. Behold the righteous?  Behold her zeal? I'm sorry, Lord.... I hurt your people.

I Hurt Your People (Romans 2:11)
Now I see where I went wrong. Beliefs I held were far from grace. My hand in lives became their fall, I crushed their pain with wanton lies. Ominous grace as judgement passed, My faith has become my one regret. My eyes were blind to the pain they felt, But now I see my hardened past. For who can love but God alone? The fruit I offered was far from gone. "Behold the righteous!  Behold her zeal!" My face was masked with haughty prayer. Behold the righteous?  Behold her zeal? I'm sorry, Lord.... I hurt your people.
