Same Ole' Story

I'll be the first to admit,
No matter what it was I’d go with it,
Get up; stand up, lickety split,
Take a hit,
Jump over it,
Have a go at it,
Never finding my way but losin’ it,
Every bit,
Like a long lost travel kit,
But I realized this,
God showed me what I'd missed,
The life I knew as a kid,
Before i ran away and hid,
So I turned around and did a little recommit,
So excited I couldn't sit,
Now through Christ I can handle it,
What life do you live?
Don't you know that no matter what Christ forgives?
The life he lived,
Is ours if we commit,
But we would rather strive, thrive, and lie,
Taking big ole' nose dives,
But Christ is there even in our hard times,
When we lose our minds,
And we need to unwind,
Christ is loving, gracious, majestic and kind,
But we toss him to the wind like a rotten rind,
But hey, I'll be the first to admit,
No matter what it was I’d go with it,
Get up; stand up, lickety split,
But through Christ I overcame the sin,
He calls me His own,
Not because of the love that I’ve shown,
But because Christ died on the cross to show,
His love for me and my life's not my own,
Now I know the truth,
So I'll set up a booth,
And tell it to the youth,
Fighting the untruth,
Asking God, what is my next move?
But hey, I'll be the first to admit,
No matter what it was I’d go with it,
Get up; stand up, lickety split,
But through Christ I overcame the sin.
