God
I want to bring Peace, Joy, and love
I see all that happens from heaven above
I see all your sufferings; I see all your pain
But I see when your life has been saved you complain
Yes, you’ve been lied to, tricked and deceived
But you won’t obey and refuse to believe
I keep all my promises, do what I’ve said
But given some time you treat me like I’m dead
I love you more than you can understand
Which is why I’m acting out what I have planned
You need a savior to pay for your crime
Or you will be suffering pain for all time
I love you too much to watch that fate pervade
So I hope you can recognize my One Crusade
The Knight that I’m sending refuses to lose
And He’s coming to give pure evil its dues
Confess and believe and you will be saved
From this world of pain: lost and depraved
I want you to see all the love I can bring
So I wrote this great song for the whole world to sing
On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me
His only Son as a baby
I love that each stanza has dealt with struggling people, the brokeness of humanity. And now Christ--born in blood to die in blood--to save us from all this brokennes. Nothing is more beautiful than that: redemption.
