[Verse]
Hey mister executioner have your fun
The lever will condemn this life for all the sins I’ve done
It’s been three days since I’ve seen the red sun
And the burden weighs down on me
What have I done? What have I done?
[Verse]
The führer faced the wrath of God for his crimes
But I’m sure they don’t outweigh all the sins of mine
I’m held more responsible
For my faith however small
What’s my sentence? It’s more than I can bear
[Chorus]
So scream! If these words cut your soul
So scream! If these words burn your ears!
If you believe your sins are unbearable
And will lead you to your death
[Verse]
If it’s true that the wages of sin is death,
Then everyone who dies has sinned, and their death is justified;
I must die and my due is owed
My debt’s being called
But I’m not ready
To die.
[Chorus]
Sin is transgressions of the divine law,
Universal and unchanging;
Wrong doing must be repaid
The weight of a crime determined by the dignity of the one offended
Against the Eternal Perfect Almighty have we offended
[Bridge]
And justice requires punishment for eternity,
We can’t change our ways past death
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse]
Teacher, teach us a lesson we were never taught
Everyone is a sinner and a murderer that believe they are doing right
We don’t know we lost something long ago
No one is born innocent
[Bridge]
We are all lost, callus, and corrupt,
Truth is lawful, right, and good…
[Final Chorus]
The grace of God is in God the Son
The revealed Word is given by The Spirit,
The Son’s death has given life,
His resurrection has conquered the Grave,
In repentance I come
I’m made right
With God
In repentance I come
My sins are gone
In repentance I come
I’m made right
With God
And work the Good work
Till Kingdom Come
