The Living Word
I don't need a church of marble
Or to be hanging on a cross
Restore my arms to gather you
Along with those we lost
Stand, don't kneel before me
Remember, I was once a man
I am familiar with temptation
So just do the best you can
Don't dwell on fire and brimstone
In light of your mistakes
Let kindness lead you to success
Not do whatever it takes
There but for the grace of God
Was not issued on a payment plan
But rather as a reminder
To respect your fellow man.
