The Crucified - The Strength lyrics

in these remaining days, let us not be tangled in mankind's celebration of itself rather, let us live as children of God for what fellowship hath light and darkness good with evil? shall grace be as pearls to swine or held higher than gold? let them know the difference keep your signs - hold your banners yourself send no "latest cause" this way need no factions, political distractions keep them out of my face spare the fashion codes and social pars and the vanity of it all to subscribe would be to sell-out and to set up for a fall can't you see the road you travel down leads swiftly to your end sold as slaves for a place to hide a temporary defense then he'll come, all will be lost you'll be swept with the tide, your shelter of clay he's calling, protection is here your grip will not hold when your world's laid to waste Lord, grant me the strength, to follow your path to not go astray i, alone in myself I'm feeling the pull, Lord, grant me the strength once again breathing down my neck the smell of the generous leach the liberating hypocrite come to save, to teach, to preach to save me from my slavery from a God who doesn't know what's best look - keep your rebellion to yourself you don't know me, my God, or the life I live not a patriot, revolutionist not a left or right wing voice don't need a liberal or conservative to tell me about freedom of choice my freedom comes from God above forgiveness beyond comprehension stregth not found in earthly powers the only true deliverance
