Sin

UNDESERVING

 I'm so undeserving

of Your grace,

of Your mercy,

of your love unswerving.

My heart, I've laid waste

with the vilest of sins.

Yet, You wash me

in the blood shed on the Cross.

For words, I'm at a loss.

How do I thank You

for a love so true

for Grace and mercy

given so freely

that it washes me anew

when I'm so undesserving?

I ASK FOR STRENGTH

 

Temptation, like a trip-wire,

causes me to stumble.

And my situation becomes dire.

Oh the ways, my life, I do bungle

each and every day. Oh the mire

into which I bumble.

 

Why do I surrender

without much of a fight?

Defeated, myself I render

and upon my soul I place a blight

when I simply surrender

to temptation without a fight.

 

I ask myself when

will I pray for the strength

to defeat my own sin?

I ask, Lord, for strength

to resist this temptation.

Lord, I ask for strength.

MY SIN DRAGS

Folder: 
Songs

Verse 1:

 

C                              G
Gently swaying in the breeze,
Dm
the limbs of these trees
C                        F
remind me of my heart
G                C
being gently moved
C                 G
by Your Holy Spirit.
G              C
Your grace proved

 

Chorus:

 

C                         Am
Without You, I was unclean,
C                             G
and my good deeds, mere filthy rags.
Dm                                 Em7
My heart was shriveled up like an autumn
G                                   C
leaf. Me, away from you, my sin drags.

 

Verse 2:

 

For God so loved me, He
sent Jesus to be
the sacrificial lamb
that through faith in Him
born again, I am.
Like a fallen limb

 

Bridge:

 

C
Like a fallen limb
F
I was dried up and dead,
G
highly flamable.
C
But Glory be to him
G
who is capable
C
of setting me free
G                              C
and breathing new life into me.

 

(Repeat Chorus)

Verse 1:

 

D                                              A         D

There was a time when I was truly humble

D                             A         D

but lately all I can do is stumble

D

Though I put on my Sunday best

A                               G    D

and I act all good and righteous

G

Yeah, I can put on quite a show,

D                  A

But what my audience don't know

 

Chorus:

 

A

Underneath it all,

D

I still fall.

A

Underneath it all,

I still sin.

'Cause underneath it all,

it's still me deep within

and underneath it all,

D7

I'm still human.

 

Verse 2:

I failed You again, ooh I failed You again

I can't stop wallowing in my sin.

The very things I don't want to do

trip me up, and keep me from You.

And I just can't seem to do that

which my heart desires me to do, but

 

(Repeat Chorus)

 

Verse 3:

You came into my life, came into my heart

and set me apart, You set me apart,

The very things I don't want to do

I find myself doing over and over again

I just can't stop wallowing in my sin.

 

(Repeat Chorus, then Bridge)

Father forgive me

SIN

SIN!

We've got a sinner right here!

SIN!

Devil's got a winner right here!

SIN!

We've got a sinner right here!

SIN!

Devil's got a winner right here!

 

I see her, Deceiver, a believer in Fear~

She's lonely, and owned see, a product of tempt only

Below me, faith sown deep, testing me, it grows 'neath

Untestable, blessed inall, instincts are unquestionable

 

Does God want me to guide her?

Or the satisfaction I provide her?

Lucifer wants me to be the divder

Rule, control, conquer and ride her

No...

SIN!

Confident, Competent, perfect body concomitant

redeemer, I'd be her, naive demeanor

So Begiled, it's wild, her faith reconciled

Saviour! but I'd savour the Sinful Behaviour

 

In scarlet, a harlot, yet an innocent mess

Lost and confused in God's given test

Me, She anticipates, Looking her very best

Lust is the feeling she's willing to confess

 

SIN!

We've got a sinner right here!

I'd try it

My blessings

My children

I'm too blessed

So I've decided...

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A song from the point of view of a God-fearing man when presented with the temptation of adultery, when the "harlot" is just as God-fearing and confused as he.

 

Appreciation of your Blessings and what you have already is the simpliest answer to the most complex feelings and questions.

Repetition

I did it again

It's a sin

Father forgive me

For I know what I do

I know what I choose

Time and time again

I choose Me over You

 

The first man condemned me

The last Man redeemed me

The inner man damns me

The new man reviles “Me”

 

I give up again

It's all I can do

 

So take “me” away

And fill me with You

For I know once I am more like You

I'll be the best Me I can be

I am not a sinner

I am not a sinner

  By jfarrell

 

To hurt another is wrong;

Known that as long as I can remember remembering;

And lotsa things I might do, can hurt;

So, I try not to; I don’t always succeed.

 

You ‘know’ god - you think I less moral than you?

By what right?
I brought me up; no god; no parents;

Think I did a pretty good job.

 

I am not a sinner;

I was not born into sin;

I am a nobody; nothing;

Ask your god.

 

He’ll tell you.. “Don’t get near his shoes; don’t even smell his shoes”;

I dare you, walk in my shoes 5 minutes…

“smell it… smell it… now TAKE it!” (adam sandler should be a god)

I am a nobody with very, very bad smelling feet.

 

Please don’t judge me. You don’t have any right.

So, I don’t shave often as I might; I swear more then you like;

And I fantasise about killing my neighbour; very, very slowly;

But you have no right, wotsoever, to judge me.

 

I wish you all rainbows ;-)

My Ode against Original Sin

 

Tell you about Original Sin
Please stick it in the bin
Your not guilty from the day you were born
Organized religion needed you to adorn

 

You with weights they could only lift
To keep you in religions grip

In two hundred and fifty six ad
Long after Master Jesus’s Christianity

 

A college of cardinals was convened
Invented original sin for power over you and me
The beloved mother of mankind
Became the blamed for us to be blind

 

Those cardinals placed evil everywhere
And tagged it so they could be the answer
They needed to get us from the day born
To rack us with guilt and keep us scorned

 

To convince us we've sinned from an early age
Press ganged into the flock come what may

The true state of affairs is far different
You can fly higher without original guilt

 

You are not guilty of being not guilty
And this truth sets you free absolutely
Take all doctrine with a pinch of salt too
It’s all designed to maintain control over you

Sin

Sin, as a seductress, attracts,


Sin, as a Satan, misguides,


Sin, as a lunatic, destroys,


Sin, as a Pharaoh, divides!


 

Stay away from sin my friend,


From its downbeat impact,


Save your skin,


Never let it contact!


 

Know that damned you will be!

 

Once you fall a victim to sin wittingly!
