Free Cee Holding the Holy Bible Liable
HOLDING THE HOLY BIBLE LIABLE
My life was an allegiance to the Alpha
My home an homage to the Omega
I sacrificed my soul to the sacred Son
And my only duty was that His will be done
His tomb became my womb alone
I gave thanks to those who removed the stone
I lifted up His name each time I drew a breath
And revered the One who never suffered unto death
Mine eyes were faithfully fixated upon my Father’s cross
He who walked upon a sea no storm could ever toss
With glory gave I to the resurrection’s vow
And at His holy alter I bent at once to bow
I was kindred to his kindness and his holy name
He who came to heal the ill and strengthened those who were lame
My heart was His church and his apostles resided there as well
He who set a table in Heaven and forever there to dwell
Every morning was a mass and a sacrament to his soul
Each evening I vowed to make atonement my only goal
But then came sordid sin and my abiding loyalty faded fast
And my commitment to His commandments is part and parcel of what has now patently passed
