Not Good Enough

They say that I’m not good enough
    That I don’t qualify.
They have their bluster and their bluff.
    I dare  to question why.

It is my queries they can’t stand
    They cannot answer me.
They blindly walk behind a man
    They have been deceived, you see.

Because I cannot follow them
    They think I am deceived. 
I abhor their catechism 
    From their laws, I have been freed.

These “righteous” have condemned my soul
    To fiery pits of hell.
They plead with me and they cajole;
    But I know my soul is well.

There is assurance; they don’t know
    That I no longer doubt.
I’ve realised salvation’s glow;
    That’s what it’s all about

I’ve been redeemed and I’ve been saved
    Through God’s most Holy Grace.
My road to heaven has been paved, 
    One day I’ll see His face.
