Religion
I don't like religion and
All it's legalistic ways.
You can't do this
And you must do that
In order to get God's praise.
It say's I must live a righteous
Life and do my very best,
Then you'll get God's favour,
And then you will be blessed.
I don't like religion and
All it's legalistic ways,
you can't do this
And you must do that,
In order to get God's praise.
It says I must obey the law
Never get out of line,
Keep on doing my very best
Then you will be fine.
I used to be religious
The best that I could be,
And live up to a standard
For God to accept me.
Then one day I met this man
Who came to visit me.
He opened up the Bible
For things for me to see.
He spoke to me about God's Son
And how he died for me,
To take away all my sin,
And to set me free.
Now I know God loves me,
Not for what I've done.
So you can keep all that religion,
My savation's in God's Son.
