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.
