Outlaw For Christ

I am an outlaw for Christ,
I know he paid the price,
I don’t have to think twice,
He was the ultimate sacrifice.
The devils always trying to keep me quiet,
Accusing me of starting a riot,
But, it’s the truth that sets men free
So there is  no one that can stop me.
I have graduated from old ways,
I’m at the alter with both my hands raised
To the author and finisher of my salvation
I now only care about his reputation.
I find it funny how no one spoke
When I lived a life that was a sick joke
And now that I have amazing grace
I hear whispers in every place
But, that does not change how I feel
For it’s his presence that is so surreal
I am thankful to be called his friend
I will sing his song until the very end.
