The Living Word

I don't need a church of marble Or to be hanging on a cross Restore my arms to gather you Along with those we lost Stand, don't kneel before me Remember, I was once a man I am familiar with temptation  So just do the best you can  Don't dwell on fire and brimstone In light of your mistakes  Let kindness lead you to success Not do whatever it takes  There but for the grace of God Was not issued on a payment plan But rather as a reminder To respect your fellow man.
