Yo, Stedfastt on the mic I know everybody would like to be perfect But the truth is, in this life we can only strive to be Christ is the only one who came And lived a sinless life on our behalf So that by faith we could be declared righteous In Him I can hear them makin' noise from a mile away, they ride away To evangelize, equipped wit' the Holy Script's Around the way they found the spot They finally got a parking space About a block away from the destination Christ is Lord they say As they preach to nations what they claim to be the way I hear a gospel message but its not amazin' They proclaimin' works based salvation Not a Christian if you sin A 1 John 3:9 misinterpretation John is speakin' of unrepentant sin In Christ rebellion's not our occupation Like before regeneration Before the Holy Spirit came and gave us life Eyes to see, ears to hear, faith equals justification In Chapter 1 verse 8 John includes himself as one who has sin, no debate We deceive ourselves if we deny this trait We're born again yet Still we wrestle wit' a sinful nature Paul in Romans 7 correlates "Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!" I hate sin man, I'm not a heathen (Uh) I fall short but I strive to keep His law I love Christ yet I fell this weekend (Ahh!) I thank God for His grace in weakness I hate sin man, I'm not a heathen (Uh) I fall short but I strive to keep His law I love Christ yet I fell this weekend (Ahh!) I thank God for His grace in weakness To the saints I write Glory to the Christ who set us free From the penalty of all of our many sins When we first believed Where as we were once aliens to the covenant Enemies, yet in Him we found life and peace We received adoption as sons We are one with the Father AKA Elohim For the Lamb without blemish was slaughtered to redeem us He was marred, crucified on Golgotha While we were yet heathens Before the rebirth, we were rebels by nature Sinkin' in sand, children of wrath In dire need of the Son of Man Full of blasphemies, and nasty habits Experts at masking our filth like spiritual cavities Such insanity In Adam we all die What a tragedy But in Christ we rise to new life Praise His majesty Israelites and Gentiles alike, united by faith Made into one new man New creation Called to love and obey Him "No one born of God makes a practice of sinning For God's seed abides in him And he cannot keep on sinning Because he has been born of God" (John 3:9, 10) I hate sin man, I'm not a heathen (Uh) I fall short but I strive to keep His law I love Christ yet I fell this weekend (Ahh!) I thank God for His grace in weakness I hate sin man, I'm not a heathen (Uh) I fall short but I strive to keep His law I love Christ yet I fell this weekend (Ahh!) I thank God for His grace in weakness My little children I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin But if anyone does sin We have an advocate with the Father Jesus Christ the righteous He is the propitiation for our sins And not for ours only But also for the sins of the whole world (John 2:1, 2)
