a little detour...

Speak life crosses all boundaries -- guard your tongue.

I wrote this a few years ago. read it like a rap... 




With your Bible in your hand, and a cross around your neck
Complaining and condemning - What the heck?
With your Pharisee eyes and your blatant honesty
Exalting your perfection – hey -Why you judging me?

The way you walk the walk and talk your talk
It’s plain to see your fruit is falling from the tree
Don’t wanna hear what you think 
Don’t wanna play your game
Enough is enough, 
Hey, I don’t roll that way

If it’s gossip you are spreading
Man, don’t bring it to me
That’s my brother and my sister
Just stop your blasphemy

It’s the works that will kill you,
The ones you boast about
They won’t get you into heaven
Its not what’s He’s about

Seems you forgot one thing
the example of the King
He didn’t come to condemn
or to judge you and me
He came to love and forgive
and set the captives free

You can stop right now,
before the damage is done
Oh woe, woe…to hear the words
I never knew you…
come from the Son
