The Chip On My Shoulder

The chip on my shoulder, was the missing piece of the cross --- Jesus took it off on that day, I accepted Him as my Holy Boss --- People often told me that someday someone would knock it off --- All I would do is smile, when they lectured me with their scoff --- The Lord was waiting for that joyous and special day --- When I accepted for my salvation the life, the truth and the way --- I felt a heavy burden of sin being lifted from my troubled soul --- On that day, when that chip of wood made the cross complete and whole.
