The Mystery

Verse 1:

They've got their favorite verses underlined in red

Memorized the ones that fit what's always been said

But turn the page to Paul and what he wrote so clear

Close the book real quick when grace alone draws near

Chorus:

It's easier to hold what you've always known

Than to let the Word of God remake your throne

Afraid that if you dig down deep and true

His grace might scatter everything you thought you knew

So you keep your creeds and I'll keep mine

And we'll never let the truth define the line

Verse 2:

Talk about the kingdom, works to earn your way

Mix the law with grace like it's all the same today

But Paul said something different to the church he'd write

Rightly divide the word - bring the darkness into light

Verse 3:

You bring the text, lay out what the apostle penned

They change the subject quick or say the conversation's at an end

Won't debate the verses, won't compare what's written there

Just label you divisive for asking them to care

Bridge:

Maybe it's not malice, maybe it's just fear

That everything you built might disappear

But the truth will set you free if you let it in

Even when it challenges where you've been

Outro:

So I'll keep asking questions, keep searching what He said

Won't trade the truth for comfort or traditions passed like bread

And if you call that divisive, well then maybe that's the cost

Of finding what was hidden and counting all else loss
