lyrics

You adulterous wife, Preferring strangers to me! I promised My love, And granted you mercy.
What happened, my darling? Where did you go wrong? I was once your God,
But now I’m just an afterthought.
 
In all of this hopelessness, You are enthroned, King forever.
The reign of God in the hearts of men – You are enthroned, King forever.
Let Your kingdom come, and Your will be done – You are enthroned, King forever.
 
I don’t deserve you. I could never get a grip on Your infinite love,
So I abused it over and over again, As if I put You back up on the cross,
Crucifying the Son of God, Over and over and over again.
And it kills you, To see me behave the way I do, Ignoring Your freedom and justice and truth,
So here I stand with hammer in hand, Driving nail into skin as I give into sin.
 
And the thing I’ve never understood is that without You in me,
I am the thief. I am the murderer.
I am the rapist on the front page of the newspaper.
I am the drug dealer. I am the pedophile.
I am the drunk driver who killed that child.
I am the prostitute. I am the racist.
I am the scum of the earth. I am the arsonist.
I am the husband who fights with his wife,
And to everyone else, I seem nice, because at the same time.
I am the do-gooder. I am the teacher.
I am the role model. I am the leader.
I am well-respected. I’ve always worked my way.
Up the corporate ladder; I think I’ve earned a raise.
But the truth is, And what I’ve come to find.
Is if I don’t know Christ, Then I deserve to die.
I’m being sincere this time, God.
Make me clean and be the King of my life.
 
The reign of God in the hearts of men –
You are enthroned, King forever.
Let Your kingdom come, and Your will be done –
You are enthroned, King forever.
 
I am willing. Be clean.
