Terminal

the fact is, by nature we're drawn to the dark
jeremiah 17:9 tells the truth about the heart
we don't want God, just His stuff
We're never satisfied; we'll never have enough
from the moment of birth we started dying
we can't be God but since Genesis 3 we've been trying
our sinful nature is the separating factor
but thanks be to God that Jesus plowed the ground like a tractor
and though sin seeks to destroy
everyday I'm pressing toward the one who is my cure and my joy

"L.A.B. Test: Life After Benediction"

I can shout all day; tell you I'm a Christian
but what good is it if the wrong ingredients are found in my kitchen?
I can go to church & be as "saved" as can be
but it means nothing if the CHURCH can't be found in me
I should be a walking building; a walking display of Christ
but if my lifestyle doesn't reflect, I'm just a lamp without a light
I recognize that everyday my integrity is on the line
Crystal didn't die for the sins of the world, so there's no need for ME to shine
but instead, when the "lab test" comes; I willingly allow the lab work
because I refuse to allow people/things to be my reason I get left on this earth
