Sin and Death

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?

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

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

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.

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

And justice requires punishment for eternity,

We can’t change our ways past death

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

We are all lost, callus, and corrupt,

Truth is lawful, right, and good…

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
