APOLOGETIX - SIMP LIZTIK lyrics

rate me

He came into this world for the rejects

Look into the Bible - then you need to size up the facts

Dwell upon the facts - and learn about His grace

Everything's in First Corinthians Verse 1:28

Hey, i think about the day when the world He came to save

went astray and they nailed him to a tree

How He stuck with 'em though they did that stuff

And went on just to suffer and got lumped with us all

(Hey) like the chumps, like the tramps, like the drunks

Like the punks, like the bums, like the scum like us all

We've all been really bad (Oh?) No one is really good (No?)

It's kinda sad - Christ's the laughin' stock of the neighbourhood

And you would think He'd try to prove 'em wrong

But Christ He suffered like I said, stuck up on the death cross

He said that they just made a mistake

And God should give 'em a break - we oughta praise Jesus' name

Saved us from Hell, what you want me to say?

I know why and I can't deny

He did it all for the crooked (Come on!) the hookers (Come on!)

So you can be bad lookin' and still get up to Heaven!

Still get up to Heaven! Still get up to Heaven!

Why did He save those bums? Why did He save those scum, huh?

Can't figure it out, but He said it in Matthew 21:31

and still they didn't get it

He came to treat the guys who were diseased

Cause the well don't want a doctor's help or hospitality

He had to get 'em all better

Like tax collectors, harlots and lepers and self-righteous hecklers

(Hey) like the chumps

CHORUS

I'm goin' to Romans - just so you'll read verse 3:10

Religious Pharisees - They'll tell you - They're very good

That's easier said than done

Psalm verse 53:3 - Righteous? No not one

Jesus alone - Jesus alone - Just Jesus alone

What we wanna say is humans don't obey

And I could quote the same verse in Psalm 14 verse 3

All have gone astray but you can know the way

The righteous ones are scarce here - we're all in need of grace

What's it gonna take for you to go and pray

'Cause Christ just wants to save you

and all you need is faith

CHORUS

Matthew 21:31b

Jesus said to them,"I tell you the truth,

the tax collectors and the prositutes

are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you."
