God Did!

Growin’ up I overheard all the grown ups sayin’
You better be prayin’ and sayin’
All the right little things at the right little times
And I had it down... at least on the outside
I’d put my best side forward I could smile with the best
And dress like the rest of the messed up church folk singin’ a song

Are you sitting down with all your sin and shame all stored up
Are you ready to live for what the law could not do
God did

Could it be that morality got the best of you and me
Got us thinking that we’re on the brink
Of a drink of the cup that’s all filled up
With the cross havin’ even a little to do with us
It was His day and it was His way
To the glory of His grace
Took our disease enough to please
The Father of lights to bruise Jesus

Maybe do’s and don’ts were made to show
How much we do and don’t ever make it

“Lord, help us to understand the depth of Your ever sovereign sacrifice in Jesus. That what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh…” (Rom 8:3)
