Shame Game

“6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.” Genesis 3:6-7 New International Version Shame Game Change one thing Just one thing Oh how can I choose That’s a tough choice my friend What would we lose Shame Shame on you Shame on me The emotion that separates God from those who wish to be free Dark thoughts Greed Homeless we don’t feed A broken planet Overcome with need Shame in the shadows celebrates when we bleed Shame on me Shame on you Put shame aside We have work to do Seeds of destruction Shame plants them deep Points at promises we have failed to keep Confession frees Lay aside blame Only the devil wins in the shame game Come naked to the Lord Belief in a Saviour forgiveness the reward No shame on me Or shame on you That’s not what we were made for God’s message is true. Shameless, blameless Our world can be new.
