Prompt / Lyrics
read a verse this morning, coffee barely kicked in James said watch my tongue, Proverbs said amen I tried to scroll past it, but the Spirit wouldn’t budge Every page kept sayin, “Son, this one’s not a nudge” Pre-Chorus I could write a note, or just say “wow” But you know me better than that by now Chorus I wrote a song about that Yeah, the mess and the mercy too If the truth hits my front door I’m gonna sing it through From the cross to my car ride home From the Word to the way I act If it convicts me where I’m at I wrote a song about that Verse 2 Men’s group on a Tuesday, folding chairs and truth Talking pride and patience, and things we didn’t do Somebody said “love your wife like Christ loved the church” I laughed, then I winced, then my heart went to work Pre-Chorus Grace hit me sideways, sharp but kind Like “You’re forgiven, now fall in line” Chorus I wrote a song about that About dying daily, rising new Not just knowing scripture But letting scripture do What it does when you stop pretending And you finally unpack That the life I’m living better match The song I wrote about that Bridge Faith without works is a beat with no sound A Bible on the shelf, but it never gets down I don’t need a halo, I don’t need a mic Just a heart that repents and a walk that’s right Still funny, still flawed, still learning the track Still amazed He keeps calling me back Verse 3 I’ve written songs about joy, and songs about pain Songs about sunshine, songs in the rain But the best ones come when the mirror don’t lie And the Word says “Son, now try” Chorus So I wrote a song about that About mercy I don’t deserve About truth that cuts clean But heals every nerve If one lost soul hears it And finds a narrow path I’ll thank God for the grace behind The song I wrote about that Outro Yeah, I wrote a song about that Still do, every time I’m cracked If the Bible speaks and my heart reacts You know I wrote a song about that
