FOR THE DEAD IN CHRIST THERE'S PEACE

I want to be more humble, whatever it should take.

My pride completely shattered, I want to see it break.

I’m desperate, I don’t care, what methods God should use.

I want to see results, how He does it, God can choose.

I want to rest, relax, in the presence of the Light.

Trusting in His will, for my way was never right.

No competing voices, no ambitions of my own

No pressure from another; just me and God alone.

What a horrible thing to gain in years, just to be another fool

God let me completely die so You completely rule

I’ve seen the proud so lifted up, yet only they don’t know,

All others see it clearly; through the years they watch it grow.

When provoked it just wont matter, I’ll let it just pass by

For the dead in Christ there’s peace, there’s no reaction once you die

Let me bury this old girl, I’ll sing no songs of mourning

But rest easy in Your grace, with Your humility adorning.

... the very first step to successful Christianity, and to show that man has received the Holy Spirit, is humility, real God-given humility, that It must be given humbly. But, yet, a church without a doctrine is just like a jellyfish; it has no backbone. So, we've got to have backbone in it. And not also backbone, but teeth also, because the Church of God must eat the Bread of Life.
